Steve was great - on time, friendly, and knowledgable. Took plenty of time to explain everything to us. It was obvious he was there because he wanted to help us, not just make a buck.

Steve came out when he said he would and listened to all my concerns. He followed up with email and letter that stated the work that need to be completed. I thought he charged a reasonable cost for the service. I would use him again.

Steve provided a good review of the foundation of my house. Although brief, the report was sealed and signed and should provide an acceptable analysis of my house. Steve was very friendly and knowledgeable during the visit.

A true professional that an everyday person could understand. The price was very reasonable and still received fast professional work. Steve knew I was in a hurry and worked with me to help me get this back on track. I received everything I needed in only a week! I can't recommend F & D enough. I will work with them on future projects.

Steve was extremely accommodating when it came to scheduling, he was available the same day (he was working in the neighborhood) and handled communication with the seller... above and beyond my expectations. He took his time and explained to me everything he was looking at and what his conclusions were. His written report was in my hands two days later (Through US mail!!). Overall a fantastic experience, wouldn't hesitate to recommend them or use them again.
