At David J. Soukup Construction, Inc., we sustain our company on reliability, great communication, integrity, and quality work. We strongly believe in giving our absolute best in all of our projects. We are experts in our trade, and will always keep you educated on your particular task or project. Call today! Dave was the winner of the Ames Home Builders Association Parade of Homes in 2004! Dave comes from three generations of home builders and has over 50+ years of experience.

"I hired Dave to replace our front entry door and storm door. Day was very reluctant to give me a quote for the work upfront and writing and I learned out why. He insisted on picking the door up from Menards and he installed the door. When I got home, the door was installed and he then told me that it was damaged. He did not call me to let me know that it was damaged and asked my opinion on what I would like to do. He just installed it. That has created a problem with Menards getting any warranty on the door since it was installed. He also chipped our brand new lock set when he installed it and refused to do anything about it. He did not fill any of the installation screws with putty and the door barely latches due to the gap between the door and the frame. I would not hire this guy to put a door on my dog dog house be warned do not hire this guy. He is a ripoff. He also requires you to give any and all rebates for the products back to him, which was an additional $500 in this case."

Titan Excavating is your local company you can trust. We have all the equipment necessary for any job you could ask for. No job too big or too small for us. We do everything from site clearing , driveways, grading , demolition and much more. We service a 100 mile radius and are open to working within the entire state. If you need us call today.

"Titan did a magnificent job on my property during the past week. I needed the following done: Grading work on my 3 acre property and three different types of rocks delivered. I also needed additional black dirt brought in to make it perfect. From start to finish the communication was excellent with Will. He let me know what time they would get to my job and everything that was going on during the work process. This is something that a lot of contractors just fail to do in my past experiences. They provide top notch equipment, with many different attachments for various types of jobs during the entire process. This ensures that the job is done correctly, the first time! Lastly, customer service could not be better. They (Will and Tim) stayed with the job until I was completely satisfied. Always keeping a great attitude no matter how many questions I asked. Even going the extra nine yards finishing the job better than I expected. "

"We actually had a complete remodel of the basement, including a bathroom. It involved a rebuild of the walls etc in the basement, Mr Sosbee was there everyday when he said he would be and worked the complete day to complete his tasks. Everything he did ( which was extensive ) was top notch work and not only did he do the work he agreed to do but was open to suggestions along the way and in fact redirected us a few times with better ideas on how we could best use the available space, which clearly resulted in a better finished product than we had thought possible. Jack is a true craftsman--so hard to find in the world today. We would ( and will ) use him again."

We want to be your go-to service for your current project and any others you may have in the future. We strive to offer the highest quality product and service.

"I do not recommend this company due to poor quality of product. - Jan 2023 bought 2 patio doors, 3 slider windows. Product that was installed in May included 2 cracked slider windows and all products had wrong color on interior. All needed to be replaced. - May 2023 bought additional 19 windows. After install in Oct 2023, 13 of the 19 had noted manufacturing defects requiring replacement in January 2024. After install of these replacements in January 2024, additional 7 had noted manufacturing defects requiring replacement in April 2024. At install of these latest replacements, 5 more had noted manufacturing defects requirement replacement (which has not yet happened) - June 2024 during rainstorm noted two of the window sets had significant water leaks. Company was advised with documentation on 6.4.2024; as of today 6.8.2024 company has yet to acknowledge my request for refund so I can re-replace the windows with a different company. Additionally several of the caulk lines were obviously done by a new employee, as I had to have the contractor installing new siding re-do those lines."

Door Repair questions, answered by experts

There are many types of deadbolts, but these tips work on most. First, address any grime buildup. A bit of WD-40 will loose up rust and dirt so the deadbolt can turn. Inspect the door and frame alignment if this doesn't resolve the issue. Adjust the strike plate or the deadbolt's position to improve alignment. If the problem persists, disassemble the lock to inspect for damaged or worn parts. If you are unsure how to do it, hire a local locksmith.

If part of the key is protruding out of the lock, you can use a pair of needle-nosed pliers or tweezers to gently turn the key in the lock to open the door. If the key is fully inserted into the lock, you may also be able to use a key extractor to help turn the key into the unlocked position. 

But if the key breaks off halfway into the lock or you simply can’t reach it to help engage the unlocking mechanisms, you should probably call a professional.

Most of the time, constant use will loosen the mounting screws on your doorknob and cause it to loosen away from the door. While this can be annoying, the solution is quick and simple. If you have exposed mounting bolts, simply tighten them with a screwdriver, being sure not to overtighten and bind up the turning mechanism. For doorknobs without visible mounting bolts, first pry off the rose mounting plate or unscrew the set screw before removing it.

If you feel like your gate hinge needs hinge oil, then a silicone spray can work well. Another option is using white lithium grease. Fencing experts recommend lubricating gate hinges annually to prevent problems with operation and corrosion. Depending on how large the gate hinge is, it’s possible you may need to apply the lubricant with a grease gun.

DIY is possible for minor latch adjustments, but professional services ensure proper alignment and long-term durability.
