Description of Work: The husband came over and looked at the repairs that I wanted to have done, but didn't write anything down or take any pictures. Wife called with the even number cost; she wasn't there to examine what needed to be done. I felt like I was being taken for a fool because I was told someone else would be doing the repairs any way.At this point of time I'm sorry I subscribed to Angies List. It turned out to be a waste of time.

Response from David Brown Enterprises
I am sorry that you are unhappy with our service. In your original email, you stated 3 of the 4 things that you wanted done at your house. The only item missing was the weather-stripping that was also included in our price. In my original response to you, I said that David will be coming over to look at your repairs and I will be doing the estimate. David did not feel that he needed to write down the repairs or take pictures because he has lots of experience in doing this kind of work, and your repairs were minor. The person that was going to take care of the repairs is our employee, not someone unrelated to our company. When I called you to tell you the price and get your email address for the estimate, you would not confirm whether I was missing anything or not in the detail of the items that you needed repaired. You were going to get your two outdoor light fixtures replaced, your door frame repaired, a new handle on your screen door, and weather-stripping around the 3 sides of your exterior door. I think that $250.00 for this work is a fair price. Again, I am sorry that you are unhappy and hope that we can do business with you in the future.

I live in Maryland and rent out a double wide to tenants in Fort White Florida. The tenants had been complaining of exorbitant electric bills. I called Clay Electric out to the home to try and determine what was going on. They surmised it could be some sort of water leak. The trailer uses well water and the pump in the shed kept turning on and off constantly. I found David Brown Enterprises here on Angies List, and called them out to the home. David instantly determined the problem to be that 2 toilets were constantly running due to faulty flushing mechanisms. He replaced them and put in 2 brand new rubber flappers. He only charged me $95. The pump would constantly kick on and off to keep up with the running water. Now that the problem is fixed I'm hopeful the electric bill will be decreased dramatically. David could have taken advantage of my being an absentee landlord. However, he did not. In addition to being honest and knowledgable, his price was fair. When they simply returned my call they were already heads and shoulders above the crowd, as many contractors in Columbia County do not even return calls. I highly recommend David Brown Enterprises.

David and Kyle arrived when they said they would. They used a good quality paint, and covered the area several times. Kyle took down an old metal shed filled with junk, loaded it all onto a trailer, and they hauled it away. Kyle repaired sagging fence. David installed a deadbolt in an outside door. This all took 2 days. I will call them back again.
Description of Work: painted carport, installed deadbolt, took down and removed old shed, repaired fence
Since we live over 2 hours away we were hoping to find someone we could trust to handle all aspects of renovation and care of the property. David and his wife have gone above and beyond our expectation and we highly recommend them for any project. All work has been done to our satisfaction and all sub contract work has been closely monitored by David. He is also very diligent in acquiring the best price even if it means taking his time to meet with several people for bids. In addition his rates are reasonable and fair. They have been very easy to work with and have been great about working with our time schedule in terms of doing things gradually at our pace. They were also helpful in the planning process bringing expertise of construction and design to help in decision process. We are very grateful to still be working with them to complete our second floor and other projects in the future.
Description of Work: We purchased a second home and have used David Brown to coordinate and do all phases of remodeling over the past year. We are still in the process but thus far he has done complete demo work and finished the first of two floors, built a bedroom/added window,, coordinated plumbing, AC, tile, well & drywall subcontractng, completed electrical, painting, installed lighting, kitchennette, laminate flooring, replaced 3 and installed 1 french door set, new front door, interior doors, complete bathroom fixtures.

Mr. Brown and his wife came to my house at 9:00am on February 27, 2013, to do a 4pt. home inspection. The inspection was done I paid them and while he was at my house I mentioned a problem with the caulking in my kitchen sink, I showed it to him and he gladly fixed the problem with no extra charge. I called the insurance company to let them know that I had the 4pt. inspection done and to find out what was the next step that i needed to take to get the insurance process going. They informed that they had their own 4pt inspection sheet that they required to be filled out. I called Mr. Brown and informed him that the insurancde company had their own 4pt inspection to fill out and they also informed me that they needed pictures. Mr. Brown informed that he was headed to another job but as soon as he got back into town he would come back by my house transfer the information to the insurance company form and take pictures of what the insurance company wanted. Mr. Brown and his wife did make a second trip to my house to transfer the information to the form that the insurance company required and took the required pictures. I AM GLAD TO KNOW THAT WE HAD SUCH BUSINESS IN FT. WHITE. THAKS TO ANGIES LIST FOR LISTING THEM AND THANKS TO DAVID BROWN ENTERPRISING FOR SUCH GOOD SERVICE. I WILL HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM TO FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

Doing business with David and his company was a great experience. The arrived on time for multiple appointments even though we are located a little off the beaten path. At all times they were friendly, professional and honest. We will hopefully be able to do some business with them in the future and I would highly recommend him and his company to anyone looking for a builder and contractor.
Description of Work: We met with David and his associate to go over plans we had to do a complete remodel on a space that was basically just a bare bones living area with a unfinished bathroom and a stripped down kitchen. They had many wonderful suggestions and ideas and left us with a number of different options that we could pursue. We arranged to meet again in the next couple of days. During that time they did an in depth investigation of the properties building history and the different types of permits that had been pulled. When we did meet again, we learned that we would not be able to perform the work that we wanted to because of some permit and code issues. David and his company did a wonderfully thorough and professional job in determining what work we could and could not do. They communicated that to us in a straightforward and honest way even though it meant them not getting the hoped for business.

David and his team were wonderful! They were prompt, responsive, professional and friendly, and their quality of work was excellent. I had a dirty plumbing related job under my house and they took care of it right away. I thought maybe the job would be too small for them, but they handle all size jobs, from building homes to remodels to fencing and misc. handymen jobs. I will definitely hire them again and I certainly recommend them.

I called David when my gas water heater broke down. There was water and mud all over my floor. David found a new unit at a very good price. He picked it up from Lowe's and installed it, after removing the old unit. He then cleaned up all the mess. David worked quickly and efficiently and quoted a very fair price. I was pleased. The next time I called David was to hang my new front door. He removed the old door and installed a new fir door and all the hardware. Once again, he worked diligently and got the job done in a short time. Again, he cleaned up after himself and I was pleased with the excellent job.
Description of Work: David replaced a gas water heater tank. He removed the old tank and found a great price on a new one for me. He installed the new one.

He replaced all the door hardware as well

Not only was David's workmanship on the home excellent, but when a minor problem arose he was quick to come out to remedy the situation. Building a home is always a stressful venture, but David did a great job of dealing with problems as they arose. The Structall building is new to most municipalities, and David was knowledgeable in negotiating the hurdles that arose. In addition, David's expertise allowed him to foresee problems with construction in advance.
Description of Work: David built a Structall (http://structall.com/ ) home on a location where a previous home had burned. ONce the debris was cleared, David took over the project and managed it from foundation to completion (http://www.flickr.com/photos/peggysgainsvillepictures/3343528043/in/photostream ). David has a vast array of knowledge about construction, allowing him to manage the permits and inspections as well as often foresee problems along the way in the building process.

When David built our house he put in the standard pantry called for in the plans, but I soon found that to be inadequate. I also disliked the split/folding door that was on the pantry. I called David and asked him to install a unit that had drawers, sliding shelves and more stationary shelves, and to also replace the split/folding door with a pocket door. David have to move an electrical outlet just a bit, but was able to install the pocket door as well as the new shelving and doors to make the pantry much more useful.

My home has cathedral ceilings, and a great deal of dead space existed over a door in a spare bedroom/office. A closet and the dividing wall created a small boxed in entry to the room, so I asked David to build and install shelves in that area, utilizing the divider wall and a closet wall. David did an excellent job, and the shelves have held a great deal of weight without sagging or showing any signs of stress.

My son was living with me temporarily, and he had two ferrets which were living in what I considered a fairly small cage. I told David the situation and asked him to build a house for the ferrets. David designed the ferret house so that my son could sit in the house and spend time with them, but that I could also utilize later when I no longer had ferrets living with me. I now rent the house, and the tenants use the "ferret house" for tool storage.
Description of Work: David built a portable ferret house which could also be used a a storage unit. The house is approximately 5x5x8 so there is ample room. David designed the building as well as built it.
