Description of Work: Re-sided my 1960 home with new cedar lap-board siding, which it has had on it for nearly 55 years. Cedar is good stuff! He crew was very courteous, and Dave always returned any call the same day. I had 1/2 of the house resided. Will do the other two sides maybe next spring. Keep in mind, Dave is a busy guy (with these sort of reviews, no wonder) and he may not be able to schedule your job right away. He needed about 10 weeks before he could start my job - but start when he said he could, as promised! Thumbs up for this man!

We were living in Georgia and purchased a retirement home in Destin Florida. We talked to many builders but used Dave because he was an established builder in Destin and every one we talked to recommended him as the best builder in our area. In addition we looked at a few of his prior projects and were very impressed. After a couple of meetings we felt he is very responsible and could build our home with little oversight while we lived in Georgia. We did come down about every other month to check on the progress and were always impressed with the progress and quality of work. Dave was always keeping us informed via the phone and when we called him he was always very responsive. I noted that his crew were all skilled in all phases of construciton, as well as electric and plumbing, and he had a dedicated foreman overseeing the build at all times. This minimized construction mistakes and kept the project on time. Dave's contracts are staight forward and easy to read. We knew that the payments we made were going directly to our project and were not requested until needed. I would recommend Dave Meyer to anyone wanting a quality job at a fair price.
Description of Work: Dave designed and built an 800 sq foot addition to our house as well as restoring the main part of the house and remodelling the kitchen.

Prompt response to request for estimate. David was very knowledgable and we were able to foresee any problems before they arose. Work was completed on time and within budget. We could not be happier with his work. We are using him next year for an interior renovation.
Description of Work: Exterior renovation. Removed old siding, sheathing, windows and doors. Replaced with plywood, housewrap and Hardyboard siding. New windows and exterior doors.

Job still in progress as of 7/19, but we could not be happier with the work so far. David has been very accommodating and flexible with both changes to the scope of work and with our desire to complete some of the work ourselves to keep costs down. Job has been on or ahead of schedule and within budget. Crew is extremely professional and their work is the highest quality we've seen (now on our third major remodel) - we can't say enough good things about these guys and their obvious pride in their work. Highly recommend this crew.
Description of Work: Contracted with David Meyer for partial remodel of kitchen and complete remodel of master bathroom.

Description of Work: Called for estimate on removal and installation of new bathroom window. After calling and leaving a message, it took weeks for them to respond to which they apologised and asked if they could still come over and tell me about thier company and give me a quote. I decided to give them a try as not all my quotes where recieved from other companies. Man who came to house (can't remember his name but I believe he was the owner of company), gave me a quote for over $800! Very expensive as compared to other quotes that I'd received. Did not use him for that reason AND because he said "this is too small of a job for me. It wouldn't be worth me sending a crew of guys over here for a little window. I can give you the name of another company". Total waste of MY TIME....WHY DID HE EVEN BOTHER TO TURN UP.

Response from David Meyer Builder, Inc.
I am David Meyer, president of David Meyer Builder, Inc. I responded to a voice message left by this potential customer about a window replacement. My response time evidently did not meet this person's expectations. She said that she still needed an estimate because others that she had were not satisfactory and we set a date and time for the estimate. I personally went to her home and was puntual. I introduced myself to her and gave her a business card. She showed me a fogged window in the master bath that she wanted totally replaced. I quoted $800.00 to remove and replace the window unit with a new window that cpmplies with current building codes. That price also included the cost of a building permit. I also advised her that she could call a glass company to replace the glass only and save a considerable amount of money. That would mean that she would'nt need my full crew to be there for that small of a job. As for her last statement: I bothered to come there because she asked me to. I can't posssibly win every bid. I will keep trying to though. It is what I do several times each day. Thank you for taking the time to read this response. David Meyer, President David Meyer Builder, Inc.
Excellent! Excellent! Excellent! -- these are the sounds of a satisfied homeowner. I have been on the planet for 67 years, and I could write a book on the pitfalls of not doing everything yourself. I am a true cynic. So, when I take the time to write a review, it is because I appreciate an exception to the rule. If you are looking for the perfect contractor/crew, David Meyer is it! -- The initial site visit and subsequent quote submission were executed exactly according to schedule. -- Great price (I was cautious about contacting a contractor, as opposed to an individual, because I assumed the price would be higher - not so, I got three prior estimates.), convenient experience for homeowner, high quality results, motivated workers, many details taken care of without homeowner oversight, such as: plumbing, electrical, scaffolding, debris removal, clean-up, etc., etc. David Meyer's crew behaves as if they each want to have a permanent, full-time job and keep it! -- unusual for many who work in construction. They actually were time-urgent! Each day of work, the crew arrived at about 6:45 AM, fifteen minutes prior to starting work. The quality of materials/nails/screws/primer/paint/wood was all first rate... stainless steal/galvanized/oil-based/pressure-treated to withstand our harsh saltwater environment. David Meyer kept us aware of the plan for each day as we progressed. Method of payment and payment schedule was more than reasonable. Mr. Meyer obtained appropriate permits, as needed. The entire project was completed according to schedule and according to price. You won't do better!
Description of Work: PERFECT RESULT! 1) Remove/replace/paint wood siding on 2-story home and storage shed, including 3 doors; 2) Remove/replace steps/railings (2 flights) on deck; 3) Remove/replace patio roof.
This job had 3 overall bids, ranging from 6,000-11,000. Mr. Meyers came in the lowest and with his previous reviews on Angie's List I decided to go with David Meyer Builder. So far in the process, Mr. Meyer has been very responsive and VERY punctual. When he sets a time he is there on time if not early. His folks that have worked so far have been great, friendly and hard working. The work has not been completed yet and I will update the review as more work is performed. His communication with the customer is outstanding which is very important to me. He lets you know up front what the cost will be and why. He will sit down and run through the contract with you and any questions you may have. I am very happy with his professionalism and punctuality thus far in the process. **If you have any questions regarding David Meyer Builder and the work being performed please feel free to contact me at Tosh.Toyama@yahoo.com.**
Description of Work: We are in the process of remodeling a fireplace and a wet bar in our great room. The work includes removing marble/counter tops/back splash and inserting new shelving and using a synthetic stone to re-model the fireplace. Mr. Meyer and his crew have been working and we are currently waiting on materials.

Bottom-line first.........I trust David; he is an honest man. Cost was reasonable compared to others. Work was outstanding. 1. We had a concept to construct a two level deck in our backyard area (one level covered an existing concrete pad and the other level was build over an existing retaining wall). David took our thoughts and made them better, more practical, and more visually appropriate. He offered advice but always listened to our thoughts and what we wanted. Design turned out much better than we anticipated. 2. David was very responsive. Met with us within a couple of days of my first phone call; one more organizational meeting a couple of days later and he had an estimate to us two days afterwards. Willing to meet with me whenever I asked for a meeting. Came to the job site every day that his crew was on site. 3. Crew was excellent. Work was outstanding. Always cleaned up at the end of each day. Great guys to talk to about the project. 4. Trust in David and his crew turned out to be critical. With work travel and a daughter in the hospital, neither my wife or I were in town for most of the construction. Never had a concern. I knew David would let us know if there was an issue or a question. 5. We love the finished project! 6. My wife an I are already discussing another project for David to help us with.
Description of Work: Designed and built a two level deck.

This was extremely reasonable price. He was timely, he was reliable. I trusted the people that he brought in my house, because I had to work while he was there doing this work. He made sure no dust went into my air conditioning unit. They were meticulous about their work in that regard. He kept by his contract with me. He said he would prep all the walls for painting, and when I got home I saw that the walls needed to be sanded. He immediately called the people he had doing the job, and had them come back and do what he said he would do for me. I didn't even have to ask him to do that.
Description of Work: I found him on Angie's List and he did a really good job. He removed a small wall, and took out the drop ceiling and replaced it with drywall.
