Get matched with top contractors in Richmond, VA

"I had an excellent experience working with Gus & Sons on a fence construction project behind home. Gus and Edgar's outstanding communication, punctuality, and attention to detail were matched only by their kindness and patience. They listened to our preferences and offered valuable insights, delivering a strong and beautiful fence that exceeded our expectations. Their craftsmanship, problem solving abilities, and genuine dedication to customer service made them a joy to work with. I am truly delighted with the final result. I wholeheartedly recommend them and look forward to working with them again on more projects in the future."

"Let me start off by saying that Jeremy is always late late late. Late for appointments, late for providing contracts, late for everything. He always has an excuse as to why he can't complete the job in a timely manner (family problems, other job, stressed out, etc). It took over a week just to get a contract. He didn't complete the job based on what I had requested. He would constantly lie and could never seem to fully comprehend my requests. When I complained that he didn't complete the job, he tells me through text "I can take care of it but it's not going to be inside 7 days I have a lot going on right now if you hadn't noticed". I text him 10 days later and he goes back to saying the job is complete. It took him 2 separate days (a few days apart) to do the exterior painting (cause he was late). He tells me he's going to do the job on a day that is going to rain. I tell him it's going to rain on that day. He said it'll be fine. He texts me on that day that he can't do it cause it's going to rain LOL. When I mentioned why there is a spot not painted on top of the front door trim, he responds with "is not visibly noticeable by the line of sight from the street". When I mentioned why he didn't caulk 90% of what I asked for, he said it's "at my discretion". During my complaints through text, he tells me "The way you were attacking me with all these messages seems like you have nothing going on in your life but to be concerned with all of this". Well I just got 1k stolen from me, of course I'm going to be concerned when you have 2 kids to take care of and are not in a position to throw away money. He also texted me "you've texted me over 30 times in the last hour and that's considered harassment" LOL ARE YOU SERIOUS?!? Unfortunately I couldn't fit all the things he didn't do in ONE text so clearly he missed a lot. The paint job on my front door trim is already ruined because of caulking he didn't do. When I complained about the front door trim already ruined due to rain (literally less than a week after the paint job), he tells me "that's how it's designed". I told him to go look at my neighborhood and see if anyone else has this issue! Jeremey is a headache that you don't want to deal with. I now have to find another contractor to complete the work I paid him to do. You end up being his manager because you have to REMIND him and keep up with him. If you paid him for a job and never contacted him again, he probably wouldn't contact you! STAY FAR AWAY!!! If you do decide to go with him, MAKE SURE the contract states everything you need in DETAIL. Or he'll find a way to not do the job and keep the money. I even hired a lawyer to sue him but decided to drop it because of time. Who has the time to deal with people like Jeremey?"

"Initially hired someone else and they canceled at the last minute. Call Jose from DCHandyman on Monday, he came out on Tuesday and completed the job above my expectations at a more than reasonable price. Will definitely hire him again."
