Description of Work: repair of water damage

Description of Work: The bill had not been presented yet, but I have always found Dave to be responsive and to provide good workman to do the work in a timely manner. Prices in the past have not been out of an expected range.

Description of Work: I am an absentee landlord and had water damage to my home. I had several contractors evaluate the issue and not be able to come up with a correct resolution. I even had a contractor through my property manager charge me and then did not do what I paid him for. Once I found and contacted Dave Larkin he determined what needed to be done right away to resolve the water leak problem in the foyer area. Much of the foyer had to be ripped out and reframed and a door and large window were replaced. There was painting and siding that needed to be replaced as well.

Description of Work: Dave and his crew did many projects for us, from painting the first floor (with very high ceilings, to installing security gates in construction elevator, repairing doorlocks, planning and making a 14ft rolling library ladder, creating special hanging systems for large art pieces, painting french doors, installing laundry tub, installing art-hanging systems, making repairs noted on inspection report, finding contractors to do work requiring special certifications, etc. The work was done over several months before and after we moved in. Dave (and Steve) were very responsive, pleasant, and skilled. I would use them again for any needs.

Description of Work: D L Remodling remodeled two of our bathrooms as well as has done painting in our foyer. Dave Larkin's employee, Steve, is a great worker, very punctual, has a lot of pride in his work, and very professional. He always has been available for any questions that I had about the work, plans, etc., and was very patient in explaining things if I did not understand, until I understood. The owner, Dave Larkin, on the other hand is very unprofessional. He was not forthcoming as to why on a job he did a year earlier for us, the countertop had an 1.5 inch gap between the countertop and vanity on one end. This past month, Dave Larkin was remodeling our second bathroom. It was during this time that my husband, Steven, mentioned to me that Dave Larkin was going to put a piece of molding where the gap between the countertop and vanity in our master bedroom bathroom that he had done a year earlier. I told my husband that I did not want modeling put there to cover it up and that I would discuss this with Dave Larkin The next day, I mentioned to Dave Larkin about what he and my husband had talked about with putting a piece of molding to cover up the gap. I told him that I did not want this and again asked why there was this issue. As soon as I said anything, Dave, became beligerent to me, yelling at me, and just kept walking off. He told me that I knew about the issue about it being warped. I told him that I was not told that nor was my husband. Dave tried to say that because he did not purchase the countertop and vanity that he had no responsiblity with the issue. When I asked him then why he did not make us aware of the issue so that we could have contacted the supplier. Dave told me that he had spoken with the supplier and that they had offered to replace the countertop if it was warped and that they suggested that Dave Larkin could put weight on that end to see if it would straighten out. I told Dave that I was not told there were options offered. I was only aware that Dave had put a bucket of water on that end to try to get countertop and vanity to meet, which I thought was because my house is not square. I was very suprised at how Dave reacted and spoke to me when I was trying to discuss the issue and how to resolve it so that I was satisfied. Dave would no longer discuss with me and so I told him that he could just discuss it with my husband, Steven. With discussions with my husband, Steven, and Dave Larkin, it was arranged to have the supplier and the maker of the countertop come to inspect the countertop today. The maker of the countertop came from NC today as well as the supplier, Dave Larkin, and his employee, Steve. It was determined that a piece of the countertop had not been cut/sanded off completely and this was why there was such a gap. The maker was discussing with Dave Larkin options of how to correct the issue. I heard Dave Larkin mention that may be a piece of the vanity had to be notched out. When I asked why this would have to be done, Dave Larkin, again flew off the handle in front of the supplier, the countertop maker, Dave's employee, and myself. Yelling at me that none of this was any of my business as he was my contractor. I tried to express to him that this was a partnership between the homeowner, contractor, and supplier, and now the maker of the product. After he finished being beligerent to me, he then ignored me the rest of the time. The rest of the persons there, did not know what to do. After Dave Larkin left the room to make phone calls, the countertop maker showed me what the issue was and how they were going to fix it. The maker had no problem explaining to me what tools he was using and showing where the issue was, etc. The maker even corrected the cauking around the countertop where it met the wall because Dave Larkin had used the wrong kind of cauking and it was cracking and separating. When the maker left my house, the vanity and countertop were touching perfectly. As Dave Larkin was leaving, he made up some reason to come back to talk with me after the other people left. He wanted to make sure that everything was fine with the hall bathroom that they had just remodeled this month for us and he was so sweet that honey could not have melted in his mouth. I will never have Dave Larkin in my house again nor work with him on a professional basis at all. I do not care that my husband and him are friends, they can be friends outside of my house and not around me. Dave Larkin was very unprofessional in yelling at me with any question that I have had and also embarrassed me in front of the other persons present. I don't know if he has a problem with women or what. If there was some way that I could get his employee, Steve, to do work for me, without Dave Larkin and his business being involved, I would do so, but I would not want to cause any conflict of interest for Steve and his employer, Dave Larkin.

Description of Work: The hot water hose on the washing machine burst in the middle of the night. The laundry room, kitchen, dinette, dining room, foyer, part of the garage and great room carpet were all under water. After the water was drained away and the house dry again, (the carpet was salvaged), I called on DL Remodeling, as I had used this company just a couple of months before with great success, on the remodeling of two bathrooms. Mr. Larkin, the owner, came to my house immediately and gave me a detailed estimate of the repair work. This involved ripping up the vinyl in the kitchen, laundry room and dinette and the wood floor in the dining room and foyer. The drywall behind the washing and drying machines had to be replaced as did some drywall in the garage. Mr. Larkin ordered new wood flooring which arrived in two days, and within a working week, the new floors were laid, with new trim and some necessary painting, and the whole project was completed. Mr. Larkin's company also put all the furniture back in its original place.

Description of Work: DL Remodeling completely remodeled two of my bathrooms. The first entailed reversing the location of a shower and vanity which neccesitated drilling a concrete floor to reconfigure the draining system. Drywall was removed (which held the existing fibreglass shower). The bathroom was completely gutted and redone: ceiling, walls, porcelain-tiled floor, drywall, painting, new frameless shower door and enclosure and shower and vanity fixtures and a new fan in the ceiling. The second bathroom was the master bathroom and again, this was completely gutted. A bidet was lifted and a one sink arrangement was replaced with a double vanity with granite top with two beveled glass mirrors. A new commode was installed. The drywall holding the existing fibreglass shower was dismantled and a bigger completely porcelain-tiled shower was built with a frameless glass shower enclosure. A walk-in tub was installed (purchased separately by the owner). All the lighting was replaced and the floor and halfwall were completely porcelain-tiled. All the bathroom fixtures were replaced. A new fan was put in the ceiling and the whole bathroom repainted.
