Working with David was an excellent experience. We did an unusual garage addition, and if you hadn't seen the before - the addition flowed so smoothly you would never know it was done. From start to finish, he kept us updated with the daily work to be performed. The various contracted crews we're all exceptional, picked up after each days work, and showed up on time. The job came in within 10% of initial budget, and with todays economy I'm grateful! I wouldn't hesitate to hire him for our next renovation! Chris Schaefer

We used David and his team for a Kitchen remodel. David provided guidance based on his many years of experience, as well as a detailed quote for the job. His team showed up on time, was polite and courteous and did a great job delivering the project in the time quoted. I would definitely recommend David and his team!

It has been said that a contractor is only as good as the tradesmen that he hires. In the case of the renovation of our den, the tradesman that was used was Tommy Ealum, subcontractor for David Meyer Builder, Inc. Tommy Ealum and his crew did a fabulous job repairing the room and went over and above what was expected, with attention to detail. After roof damage by an EF0 tornado was repaired, a contractor was needed to repair the den, the room under that roof. David Meyer Builder, Inc. was selected from Angie's List . His proposal was submitted on May 3, 2018. Repairs were started four days later and finished on the date specified. The team was very professional and skilled in workmanship. The den now has a much better appearance with corrections on the walls, window areas, and ceiling. We would highly recommend David and his team to anyone who needs this type of contractor. The contracted price was more than we expected to pay for these repairs, but with the extra efforts of Tommy Ealum, we feel that we received a very fair deal.
Description of Work: The work needed for den was as follows: installation of ceiling insulation; installation and finishing of drywall on ceiling, support beam and post, and two walls; installation and finishing of Cornish board above wall sections; purchase and installation of new ceiling fan; installation of new trim for windows and baseboards; paint entire room.

One side of house done in June 2017 - work took 3 weeks because it was done by one person only. Quality of work was good. Attempted to schedule the remaining 3 sides of house early Jan 2018. I was originally told it would be on the schedule w/in a couple weeks. The work didn't get started until the week of 16 Apr, however the deposit check was cashed on 10 Jan 2018. Majority of work was done by one individual. When new wood panels were installed there was a team of 3 individuals that did that work. The job took 2 weeks and one day no work was done. The person assigned to the job really should have had supervision. Quality of work was just 'ok' and I had to have contractor back to touch up same areas twice. One new panel installed had a couple bad areas brought to the contractor's attention. The contractor didn't believe it should be replaced so he attempted to caulk the area but it is noticeable. In my opinion, this contractor's price is on the higher end, however, the quality doesn't support the price. Contractor's communication is very poor.

This is the second job he has performed in our condo and both times did a great job. He always does more than expected. He is also a great communicator. The subs he uses are also reliable and do a great job as well.

Never showed up for schedule appointment Wednesday 4pm. Call him and at 4:20pm ask when he will be here to check out the job he said to me "I thought the appointment was for yesterday I was going to call you up and tell you why I could not come". Then tired to schedule another appointment but said he would not be able to come out to next week Thursday because of the holiday traffic in Destin. This guy really disappointed me and the reviews on this site makes him look like he is very professional. Truly disappointed

It went almost like clockwork with very few glitches. David was on time every day and told me what he would get completed that day. He is very meticulous and thinks things out to the Nth degree but the work was completed on time and on budget. I am saving money by doing the caulking, sanding and painting of the columns, but he is still available if I need him.
Description of Work: I needed soffits in the kitchen removed for new cabinetry going in, I needed the ceiling re-Sheetrocked and popcorn redone. I needed new appliances installed. I needed 13 posts in the outside wrap around porch to be changed from Southern Style Farmhouse to modern Craftsman Posts.

Wonderful. What a nice man and he does fantastic work. I had done a similar project on another condo I owned and used a different contractor who shall remain nameless. Meyer's work was far superior and less costly.

The glass units were replaced quickly and at no charge by the door company. Note: When David Meyer originally replaced the doors, he solved a water leak problem that others could not solve. No more water leaks!!
Description of Work: Two doors that they had replaced on our home developed some fogging of the glass units. I called David Meyer to report the problem. He provided me the name and number of the company that manufactured and warranted the doors.

Mr. Meyer was very responsive and came out quickly to bid on the job. He was very good at giving us all options from most expensive to least expensive repair. His crew worked quickly and they were very thorough. The new windows look and work great. The siding looks great and matches the rest of the house perfectly. There were some leaks in the garage directly below where the windows were installed about a month later. Mr. Meyer came out the next day to fix the issues. No leaks since then. I get the feeling from Mr. Meyer that he actually cares about his customers. He really helped us figure out the best solution to our problem. I wouldn't hesitate to hire him again.
Description of Work: Installed four windows. Replaced rotted siding. Replaced trim around windows and roof line.

We are extremely pleased with the completed project. All the workmen were efficient, polite, and conscientious about doing the job RIGHT! In addition, David did several little things that were not in our contract to make the changes more aesthetically pleasing. The doors are a nice upgrade to our home, and make the rooms seem a lot larger! We got bids from 3 contractors. David Meyers Builders, Inc., was not the least expensive bid, but as the old adage goes, "You get what you pay for!"
Description of Work: We hired David Meyers Builders, Inc., to replace windows in the living room and kitchen with sliding glass doors. This involved removing bricks from around the windows...some of them carefully, to be used around the doors and be the same as bricks on rest of house. Inside the house, sheet rock had to be replaced, sanded, and painted. Electrical switches and outlets had to be moved to new locations.

This was just too big a job for this contractor. The most disorganized poorly planned venture ever. All the work was done at least twice because of poor planning, poor skill, or lack of knowledge. David would show up briefly every morning then disappear. Nothing ever completed. Deck was half done, had to be completed finally by subs for the dock, Hardy board half done with incorrect nails, errors just caulked over, paint sloppily applied, overspray on windows, walls, and marble tile from ceiling work, windows incorrectly measured, glass broken Expensive items were lost, discarded or broken. I have never seen someone so unconcerned about shoddy work. (" I knew you would be unhappy if it wasn't perfect" -David Meyer) We were charged for hourly wages for his crew for work we could not see, that he could not demonstrate when asked. We have had to hire subs to repair work his crew did incorrectly. We had to fire his recommended subs and had to hire other subs to repair damage or poor work. He was very expensive because of the high cost of doing the job twice (or more, after hiring someone to fix errors after a redo). David always has an excuse. It is always someone else's fault, never his own lack of planning, supervision, or knowledge.
Description of Work: Contracted for major remodel of waterfront home: repairing water damage, complete restoration of exterior with new Hardyboard, adding on front room, laundry, pantry. He was to supervise subs to change garage doors, remodel bathrooms, floor refinishing, deck and dock rebuild.

Great! At last, we've found some real skilled professionals who know the right way to do things and won't settle for anything that does not meet their high standards. They did not need to be guided by my critiques, but instead worked as if it was their house and they wanted it right! They were a pleasure to have working in our home. They found unknown deficiencies that the previous contractor had covered with sheetrock and made sure everything was corrected. They kept debris at a minimum and always left the area clean each day. They were very responsive to our questions. Bottom line: No more water leaks! Looks great and works great! A great team! They did what they said they would do and did it right!
Description of Work: To solve defective work done by another contractor several years ago that resulted in water leaks that no one had been able to stop, the following work was done: Removed a door and 2 adjacent windows and segments of brick wall and replaced all that with one piece door with side windows. Removed and replaced a 2nd exterior door. Installed storm door for garage.
