David Dixon and his wife Reagan began their construction company in 2002. All work is performed by David and we never use subcontractors. We provide our customers a high quality and reliable product with responsive and dependable customer service.
David Dixon is just a fine person. He came to give me an estimate on the job and ended up fixing it right then and there. This is service you just don't see much of these days. Of course he was on scheduled time, was neat and cleaned up any mess and was extremely courteous. Job well done!!

I was very impressed with Dixon's service. David (repairman) arrived on time & knew exactly what the problem was. He had the shade back on track in a matter of a short time. He explained the problem to me & I was pleased with the price. Most important, I don't have to buy a new shade.
Description of Work: I have a Kirsch Roller shade that operates with a beaded chain to raise it up/lower it (living room window). I pulled it down too far & couldn't get it back up. Thankfully, the repairman was able to take the shade off the brackets, straighten it and get it back in gear.

Mr. Dixon accomplished the task which other contractors were reluctant to attempt. His matter-of-fact approach & can-do attitude were quite refreshing. There is no question his services will be utilized by this homeowner as needed.

I think that they should clean up after they are done, and always wear shoe covers. They could also be a little more positive.

My experience with this company was good. He gave me two additional estimates for other work that I felt were too high. I was very pleased with the quality of his work. My only criticism is that the appointment was for 1:00pm and he came at 9:00 am. This company is in the process of expanding, and the type of work he performed for me, was below the scope of the type of work he would like his company to be doing. I appreciated him doing the work, even though I got the impression he really wished he hadn't done the estimate.

HE GAVE US HIS QUOTE, MY HUSBAND ASKED FOR CLARIFICATION SEVERAL TIMES, AND IT WASN'T CLARIFIED TO OUR SATISFACTION BUT WE HAD USED THEM BEFORE SO WE WENT AHEAD. 30 DAYS PASSED, AND THE DOOR WENT UP $300 IN COST. WE STILL WENT AHEAD AND DID IT. THE DOOR TOOK A LONG TIME TO COME IN, AND THEN IT TOOK THEM A WHILE FOR THEM TO INSTALL IT. THEY ATTACHED THE DOOR AND ALL THE HARDWARE, AND ANOTHER CONTRACTOR CAME BY AND TOLD US IT HADN'T BEEN PRIMED WITH PAINT AND WOULD DETERIORATE REALLY FAST. I WAS UPSET BECAUSE DIXON'S DIDN'T ADVISE US AT ALL ON THE IMPORTANCE OF PRIMING OR PAINTING EVERYTHING. THEY ALSO DIDN'T QUITE MEASURE CORRECTLY AND THE DOORKNOB WAS TOO DEEP TO CLEAR THE DISTANCE BETWEEN THE NEW STORM DOOR AND THE MAIN DOOR. IF I CLOSE THE STORM DOOR, THE MAIN DOOR WON'T CLOSE. ONE OF THEM HAS TO BE KEPT AJAR. HE ALSO DIDN'T PUT ANYTHING ON THE DOOR THAT WOULD KEEP IT FROM BEING CAUGHT IN THE WIND.
Description of Work: WE PURCHASED A CUSTOM MADE STORM DOOR FROM THEM AND THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO INSTALL IT. WE ASKED THEM FOR A QUOTE. DAVID, THE OWNER, CAME OUT AND LOOKED AT THE FRAME THAT WOULD BE USED FOR THE INSTALLATION. WE TALKED IN DEPTH ABOUT WHAT WAS NEEDED. THE DOOR WOULD BE AN OUTWARD SWINGING DOOR, SO WE DISCUSSED HAVING SOME MECHANISM TO KEEP THE DOOR FROM GETTING CAUGHT IN THE WIND AND STRIKING OUR BRICK WALL. THEY HAD TO COME BACK AND TAKE OUT THE DOOR. THEY CAME BACK OUT AND REBUILT THE WOOD FRAME FOR THE DOOR, AND BROUGHT A DOOR CLOSER TO KEEP IT FROM SLAMMING. AFTER REINSTALLING THE DOOR, THE DOOR CLOSER PREVENTED THE DOOR FROM OPENING AT A 45 DEGREE ANGLE. THE MAN TOLD US THAT HOW IT WORKS AND LEFT IT THAT WAY. WITHIN 24 HOURS, THAT DOOR CLOSER PULLED OUT OF THE WOOD. WE HAD TO TAKE THE DOOR OFF THE HINGES SO IT WOULDN'T SLAM AGAINST THE BRICK. WHEN WE TOLD THEM THIS, THEY NEVER CALLED US BACK. I GOT A LETTER ON MAY 3RD TELLING US WE NEEDED TO PAY.

Response from Dixon's Custom Home Solutions
She ordered a custom door & let the quoted expire twice before placing the order. In this time, the vendor had a price increase. She was aware the door took 8 weeks for delivery. Our contract stated the specifications of the door (material & size) & the hardware included (hinges, knob and lockset). There wasn't a closure or painting included in the contract. After the door was hung, in an effort to please her, we agreed to return to remove then reinstall the door when her painters finished & install the closure even though it wasn't in the contract. Upon installation of the closure she stated the chain piece was "unsightly" & to exclude it. Our on site technician explained the necessity of the chain. Bothe owners, during separate conversations, explained to her that the chain was necessary & without it, it would be more likely for the closure to pull out of the door or frame. She declined the chain 3 times. We installed the closure to her specifications. When our office attempted to collect the balance due she stated the closure had pulled out & we needed to replace it. The closure was never in the contract, it was installed at no additional charge & she purposely altered the suggested installation procedure resulting in the ineffectiveness of the device. We will not return to install the closure again. The bill is past due. We have begun legal collection procedures in small claims court & are filing a mechanics lien against this property for the completed contracted work.

Her whole approach to getting money and mine didn't agree. The estimator was very congenial and knowledgeable. The investigative work was good, but the office work was lousy.
Description of Work: I've got a leak, and the man from Dixon said he would need a door frame or a new door, or both. They wanted money up front, and wanted to make out a second contract for the installation.

THIS GRADE POSTED BY THE MEMBER DOESN'T EVEN MAKE SENSE. HOW DOES A COMPANY GET A'S IN THE 3 CATEGORIES THEY QUALIFY FOR AND THEN A C OVERALL? OUR COMPANY POLICY ON "SPECIAL ORDER ITEMS" IS TO GIVE THE CUSTOMER A CONTRACT STATING WHAT THEY HAVE ORDERED, THE AMOUNT THEY HAVE PAID FOR THE ITEM AND THE DATE IT WILL BE DELIVERED TO THEIR RESIDENCE. THIS MEMBER CALLED OUR OFFICE AND STATED THAT HE WOULDN'T BE WILLING TO PAY ANYTHING UP FRONT, REGARDLESS IF WE HAVE TO PAY OUR VENDOR UP-FRONT BECAUSE "HOW DOES HE KNOW WE WILL ORDER THE PRODUCT." I EXPLAINED TO HIM THAT HE WOULD HAVE A SIGNED CONTRACT AND A RECEIPT. NOT TO MENTION, MANY REFERENCES HERE ON ANGIE’S LIST. MANY OF WHO HAVE HAD THEIR OWN SPECIAL ORDER ITEMS. HE THEN MAILED ME HIS OWN VERSION OF THE CONTRACT. AT THAT POINT I EXPLAINED TO THE CUSTOMER THAT IT WOULD BE IN EVERYONE’S BEST INTEREST IF HE CHOSE A COMPANY HE WAS MORE COMFORTABLE WORKING WITH. I SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT ANGIE’S LIST WORKS. YOU GET THE GOOD AND THE BAD REFERENCES. YOU KNOW, HONESTLY, WHOM YOU ARE WORKING WITH. IF THE MEMBERSHIP HE PAYS FOR AND THE REFERENCES HE READS ARE NOT ENOUGH TO MAKE HIM COMFORTABLE WITH OUR STANDARD OF ETHICS AND PRODUCTION, I DON'T BELIEVE WE WILL BE ABLE TO SATISFY HIM. BECAUSE OF THIS OUR COMPANY HAS DECLINED TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS AT THIS MEMBERS RESIDENCE.

When I scheduled my work, I told them I was rushed in order to meet a delivery deadline. My work was scheduled for later in the week. That same afternoon I received a call from their helpful office lady stating their repairman had completed his work early and could come by that day if I wished. I said yes. I could not be more satisfied with this handyman. Chris, their repairman, worked at a consistent rate the entire time he was here. He was polite, listened to what I wanted and answered my questions completely. His work was done well and he cleaned everything up when he was finished. While I do not think they are inexpensive, they are not more expensive than other companies. They also did not waste time to add to their bill and did not charge extra for travel, etc. I would highly recommend them.

THIS MEMBER CALLED OUR COMPANY BECAUSE HER HOME IS INFESTED WITH WASPS. SHE WANTED US TO REPAIR THE SOFFIT THEY ARE ACTIVELY USING TO ENTER AND NEST IN HER HOME. WHEN I EXPLAINED TO HER THAT DUE TO SAFETY, IT IS OUR POLICY NOT TO SERVICE AREAS WITH AN ACTIVE INFESTATION, SHE BECAME UPSET. I EXPLAINED TO HER THAT SHE NEEDED TO CONTACT AN EXTERMINATOR FIRST. SHE THEN STATED THAT 2 WERE UNWILLING TO COME TO HER HOME. WHEN I ASKED WHERE SHE LIVED SHE TOLD ME TRAFALGAR. I EXPLAINED THAT TRAFALGAR IS OUTSIDE OF OUR SERVICE COVERAGE AREA ALSO. AT THAT POINT SHE BECAME HOSTILE AND WE ENDED THE CALL. OUR COMPANY CAN NOT AND WILL NOT COMPROMISE THE SAFETY OF OUR EMPLOYEES TO ACCOMODATE A CLIENT. ADDITIONALLY, WE DO NOT OFFER SERVICE IN THE TRAFALGAR AREA.
