Beattie Development

Guys, this company and its owner owe people throughout Lee county millions. In the words of Caruso from CSI Miami- don’t get fooled again. They, even in the last couple of months have tried to extort hundreds of thousands of dollars from people like my husband and I. They’ve closed their doors but sadly are looking at other ways to scam people. If you read this and give them even a dime, then shame on you. For all the rest of us, go to the police. They broke/voided the contract when they called you and said the money was all gone. When he tries to bully you and stop you from speaking - tell him to pound dirt don’t worry, he won’t. We have given him $300,000 in draws and deposits and all that we have to show for it is dirt floating away on our canal after a heavy rain. So basically, he’s inept at even pounding sand.

The true measure of satisfaction is "would you bring your contractor back in the next time you plan to do more home improvement work?" This is the third time we have worked with Beattie Development. Their quality and attention to detail has made for a top notch experience each time we entrusted our home to them.

I strongly caution when considering this builder. After a year under contract, we discovered they had failed to obtain the necessary permits – and lied to us along the entire way – telling us permits were all in motion. Mind you, this is only one of the issues that transpired. Unfortunately, their business practices and trustworthiness have been deeply disappointing. Despite breaching the contract, they have refused to return my deposit of $7500. Which I was told was used for permitting, but only $233 was spent on the permits. I would recommend against engaging with them, particularly if you are dealing from out-of-state. While I consider myself a patient and composed individual, my experience with Beattie's business operations has been less than satisfactory. Their approach not only raises questions but also gives an impression of deception. While I recognize Beattie Development's accolades and reputation in Southwest Florida, my personal experience has been quite different. A company's reputation should be built on the consistent satisfaction of all its clients, not just a select majority. My situation is a testament that there are instances where Beattie Development has fallen short of their high standards. The challenges you've mentioned like supply chain disruption due to hurricanes and issues with buyer financing are indeed real and can impact a project's timeline. However, these factors should not excuse the breach of our contract, which resulted in a significant financial loss for me. My review may indeed be one-sided, but it is an honest account of my experience. Consumers deserve to hear all sides, including those rare negative experiences, to make an informed decision. It's not about disparaging your business; it's about bringing to light a situation that was handled poorly from my perspective. Your growth over the past 14 years is commendable, but growth should not come at the expense of any customer, as has been my case. Every customer's experience counts, and each one contributes to the overall reputation of a business. I hope that future customers will take my experience into account when considering Beattie Development. It's essential to be aware not only of a company's successes but also how they handle situations when things don't go according to plan. As consumers, we should indeed be informed, and this includes hearing about all experiences, good or bad. I believe transparency and open dialogue are key in making informed decisions. Thank you for taking the time to read this review.

We live on Sanibel and had damage from Hurricane Ian. Sean from Bergau plumbing and Ryan from Home Services got us up and running so we could begin flood mitigation. Cannot thank them enough for their professionalism and attention to detail.

excellent quality, very professional, trustworthy management

These people were nice enough, just too expensive for the small job we wanted done. We have an area that would be perfect for some bookshelves with simple lighting and some drawers. For this type of work, $5,000 was way too much to pay.

The company was very good. The Employee came to the house and took time to look at everything I wanted fixed.

My husband and I wanted to update our kitchen and some friends recommended Beattie Developments. From the first time we walked into their office/showroom they were extremely professional and a absolute pleasure to work with. They added a dry bar matching our existing cabinets perfectly along with crown, a light rail, granite and a beautiful back splash! They did a great job at keeping us both involved and updated throughout the entire process. When I told them the time frame I wanted to have it done in I knew it would take a miracle... They finished on time and on budget! I would highly recommend them to anybody!

They were absolutely fantastic. Their team right from bidding throughout the entire process was professional. Their attention to detail and cleanliness amazed my husband and myself. They were always accessible and great to work with, we will definately be recommending them to our friends and family!!
