Gary did a pre-home inspection on our home prior to our purchase. He went through everything(4 and a half hour inspection). We purchased our home "as is". Most of the things wrong with the house we were aware of. The things that we were not aware of, I don't think he could have known (like the broken pipe under our drive). After the inspection, Gary told my husband he would be able to repair these things and provided an estimated cost. Anything that needed repair, Gary came back and was able to easily and quickly fix. His price was very fair. He is very straight forward, which I really liked. When the pipe was broken under the drive, we could not find the over flow line. Gary called the builder of the home(which was fairly new), the city water dept., and the plumber who put the lines in. NO one was able to find this line(which should be a pvc pipe raised out of the ground). When the builder arrived and was unable to located the line, Gary did not have any issue with telling the building about the window casings leaking, the Hardy plank siding on the house falling off, the stones on the columns falling off etc. He really wanted to know what the (high end) builder had to say for himself. (and so did I). Gary did find the line after a full day of looking for it, as someone had cut it off at ground level. I felt that Gary really had our best interest at heart and wanted to do the best job possible for us. He has also made follow calls to make sure everything was okay and that there wasn't anything else needed. He is very professional all prices quoted were what we were charged. If we need any type of repair or home improvements Gary Dove is who we will call. We are very pleased with his work, his professionalism and his quality. Sometimes it does take a little time to get him to call you back.
Description of Work: Gary did a pre-home inspection on our home prior to our purchase. He went through everything. After the purchased Gary came back to power wash our home, repair stone that had fallen off(due to bad workmenship on the builders part) and repaint areas of the house that needed painting. We found we had leaks around every window. Gary was able to fixed these leaks, he also repainted and repaired our stones at this time. After we had moved in, we discovered we had a water line burst under our driveway. Gary came right out and determined where the break was and made the repair. In the process one of our sprinkler lines had been damaged. We were not aware of this until a few months later when we turned the sprinklers on. One quick call to Gary and he was here within days to repair the line, no questions asked.

See above.
Description of Work: Called Mr. Dove because of Angies List. He arrived right on time, seemed competent and professional, and gave me a ballpark figure with promise to call back with a real estimate and a time when he could begin the work. I have yet to hear back from him; am guessing that he did not really want the job. But wouldn't it have been better to just tell me that the job was too small?

Gary came out, walked around the exterior and assessed damage by diggng into wood in certain areas. He then gave me an estimate based on all that he could find explaining that once they began , other items might show up. They began late that week by taking off the damaged wood, examining further, and telling me the options and what the new cost would be. I agreed and he finished the external portion and then went into the sunroom and finished up. He completed it in just over a week in between rainstorms .
Description of Work: Repaired water damaged eaves, sunroom, patio rails, and windows affected by water that accumulated after rainstorms.
