Well, except that his original work on a pantry resulted in a complete collapse. We sorted through all the food stuffs, and he re-installed the shelves using better anchors. This time it has held.

I am submitting this report because I recently received an unwelcome political e-mail message from him. I respect his beliefs, but feel he should not e-mail his clients about his beliefs.
Description of Work: I don't remember the exact service he performed for us. (He provided the service about a year ago.)

I called David for an estimate to renovate a bathroom and he responded promptly and scheduled an appointment for a couple of days later. He was waiting when we arrived from work. He was thorough and polite, he gave so great recommendations that I had not considered. He left and stated that he would call us back with a quote but that has never happened.
Description of Work: No work done.

Very impressive. Dave was very patient and was able to immediately replace the washers thus stopping all leaking around the handles in the tub/shower but we knew it was going to be difficult finding the replacement parts. But Dave persevered and after several days of checking at different stores as he traversed the Tampa Bay area he located the matching parts in small store in Plant City.
Description of Work: Dave replaced the washers behind the original hot and cold water handles in a bath tub/shower of my mother's 50 year old house. He then searched Tampa and surrounding areas until he successfully located in Plant City matching back pieces to replace corroded metal parts that fit between the handles and the tile wall. He also fixed the toilet which was malfunctioning without replacing any parts.

David did a really great job! He showed up on time and worked hard through the whole process. He cleaned up everything before he left and even took the old door away with him. I will use him again.
Description of Work: My glass on the kitchen door was broken out. David came out and told me that I had tempered glass which is more expensive. We agreed to just replace the entire door because it was cheaper.

The day he was supposed to come out he was late. I called him and he said he would be there soon. He rushed in my home, and was talking very quickly and hurrying me along. His attitude, demeanor, and appearance were unacceptable, so asked him to leave.

THE MEMBER AND I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO MEET SO I COULD GIVE HER AN ESTIMATE. UNFORTUNATELY I MISPLACED HER APPOINTMENT SHEET AND WHEN SHE CALLED ME BECAUSE I WAS LATE, I WAS ALREADY ON SITE FOR ANOTHER JOB. WHEN SHE CALLED I STOPPED WORK AND WENT RIGHT OVER TO ESTIMATE HER JOB. I DID ARRIVE LATE AND I WAS IN A HURRY, AS I WAS ALREADY WORKING. I DID NOT HURRY HER ALONG AS I STAYED AS LONG AS IT REQUIRED TO GET THE INFORMATION. MY CLOTHES WERE DIRTY WITH THE MATERIAL I WAS WORKING WITH. SHE NEVER, NEVER ASKED ME TO LEAVE. I PROVIDED HER WITH THE ESTIMATE AND SHE DECLINED MY ASSISTANCE WITH HER PROJECT. I WISHED HER LUCK AND WENT BACK TO MY OTHER WORK SITE.
David showed up as agreed. He removed the frame for the back door window and replaced the glass. No problems at this point. He bought a 4" X 4" X 10' post replace a broken post. Unfortunately, he chose a warped post that was not perfectly straight on all four sides. As a result, the wood fence bends back where it is attached to the warped post. The door locks were installed on steel-clad exterior doors. They are class 2 security locks requiring long 3" screws in the door jamb for the deadbolts. He failed to follow manufacturer instructions for installing the deadbolts. Originally, he just used the standard short screws. After the first deadbolt was installed, I pointed out the error and he followed manufacturer instructions and corrected the problem. He didn't use proper tools to enlarge the holes in the door for the deadbolts. As a result, the edges of the holes are ragged instead of smooth. Fortunately, the deadbolt lock covers the ragged edges. Pleasant to work with.
Description of Work: Replaced broken glass in back door, installed deadbolts and regular locks in two steel exterior doors, replaced damaged wood fence section in back yard.

AS FOR THE HOLE FOR THE DEAD BOLT, IT WAS CUT WITH A METAL CUTTING JIG SAW WHICH IS A BETTER CUTTING TOOL THAN THE RECIPROCATING SAW THAT I HAVE. WHENEVER YOU CUT METAL THERE WILL ALWAYS BE JAGGED EDGES. SINCE THEY WOULD BE COVERED BY THE DEAD BOLT I FIGURED ALL WAS WELL. I WILL USE A HALF ROUND FILE NEXT TIME TO "SOFTEN" THE EDGES.

Dave was very busy, so getting scheduled took a bit longer than I was hoping for, but once he arrived and found out what the problem was we decided on a solution. The work proceeded quickly. He does meticulous work! He was very careful about installing the tile and was determined to leave me with a perfectly finished product. I don't think most contractors would have spent the time he did after he'd applied the tile, but before he put in the grout, making sure that all the grout lines were clean and perfect. He even replaced a tile, just before he grouted because the drying process had produced a crack - he wasn't willing to leave it to chance that it wouldn't leak. He even put up with me watching over his shoulder from time to time.
Description of Work: Diagnosed problem with "spongy" shower wall, tore out wet wallboard and tile, replaced insulation, wallboard, and tile.

Initially, I left a voice mail message. I did not receive a return call after one week and placed a 2nd call. I spoke at length with David regarding the needed repairs. He denied getting the original message. I relayed to him the difficulty I encountered in finding a capable handyman, and one who would show up as promised. He stated that many handymen did not like working for * racial slur* or whatever the correct term is". I found that comment to be very interesting because the topic of my race had not been included in the discussion. I was a taken aback by his comment. I chose not to acknowledge his racist comment. He stated that he would call me later during the week to schedule an appointment;of course he never called back. Frankly, I am a paying member of Angie's List because I only want to deal with service providers with character and integrity, and without racial bias.
Description of Work: I spoke with David Ditinno regarding several home repairs such as hanging new ceiling fans,hanging a motion detected night light,and a screen repair.

I DO REMEMBER THE CONVERSATION WITH HER AND I WOULD NEVER SPEAK BADLY OR USE "RACIAL SLURS" WITH ANYONE LET ALONE A CUSTOMER. I ADMIT I DID NOT RESPOND IN A TIMELY MANNER NOR FOLLOW UP WITH HER. AT THAT TIME I WAS HAVING SOME FAMILY PROBLEMS AND HAD TO SPEND TIME IN MASSACHUSETTS AS MY MOTHER FELL AND BROKE HER HIP. I REGRET NOT FOLLOWING UP AS SHE STATED "FINDING A CAPABLE HANDYMAN, AND ONE WHO WOULD SHOW UP AS PROMISED" IS HARD TO DO. I WOULD WELCOME THE CHANCE TO MAKE THIS RIGHT.
Dave did an excellent job. He showed up on time (which really seems to be rare in our area). Took about 2 1/2 hours to complete, and all work was done to perfection.
Description of Work: Dave installed a fan and light kit for us on a high ceiling that we couldn't reach with our 6 ft ladder. Also reworked the power and vent setup for our dryer so that we could fit it in our washer/dryer closet with the doors shut.

Dave did a great job, and his attention to detail was superb. He is a good communicator, and is easy to work with. We will have many occasions to use him in the future, as we will have several jobs that he could do. His price was good also, and he gave us a nice Angie's List discount.
Description of Work: Dave cut a hole in wall between two suites and put a door in. He did extensive sanding and hole filling, moved electrical outlets, and painted the door. He noticed that 20 fluorescent bulbs were out in the offices, and for a nominal cost he replaced them all.

Dave did a fantastic job! I was afraid what I wanted done couldn't be done...but he somehow did it! I sent him an email on Sunday, he replied Sunday, then came out on Monday after a root canal! His workmanship is A++. And I honestly think Dave could do any project in my home or yours. He saw lots of "honey please do" things and he will be the first I call. Thank you, Dave. J. Clement

THE MEMBER CALLED ME OUT TO GET AN ESTIMATE ON PUTTING TILE IN ONE BEDROOM. WE ALSO TALKED ABOUT PUTTING TILE IN THE FRONT ROOM AND HALLWAY. ALSO ABOUT REPLACING BROKEN TILES IN ANOTHER BEDROOM. HE WANTED A PRICE FOR PERFORMING ALL THE WORK. I ADVISED HIM THAT IT WOULD ONLY BE AN ESTIMATE AS THE ROOMS WERE SO CLUTTERED IT WOULD BE HARD TO GET THE CORRECT MEASUREMENT AND TO PROPERLY INSPECT THE CURRENT FLOORING TO ASCERTAIN THE CORRECT REMOVAL PROCEDURES. HE STATED THAT HE UNDERSTOOD. I CALLED HIM BACK THREE DAYS LATER AND GAVE HIM THE ESTIMATE AT WHICH POINT HE TOLD ME THAT IT WAS HIGHER THAN HE EXPECTED. I ADVISED HIM OF THE CONVERSATION WE HAD ABOUT THE REMOVAL PROCEDURES AND THAT IF IT CAME IN LOWER THAN THE ESTIMATE I PROVIDED THAN THE COST WOULD ALSO DROP. I GAVE HIM A HIGH END ESTIMATE EXPECTING THE WORST. HE NEVER RESPONDED OTHER THAN STATING THAT HE WOULD TALK IT OVER WITH HIS WIFE AND GET BACK TO ME. AT NO TIME WAS THE DATE MARCH 13TH EVER DISCUSSED. IF IT WAS I WOULD'VE TURNED DOWN THE JOB AS I WAS BOOKED UP UNTIL THEN.
