!!!!!!! Not too well
Description of Work: The work I wanted done, he thought he could do. He worked on it for an hour and said it was not something he could fix. ?? He looked at it a few days before and he said it looked fixable -- BUT it was NOT something he could deal with. He tried and charged us money for searching out the situation but figured out he could not complete this job. He still charged us a fee -- excuse me -- We paid him $80 for just trying to fix our problem. He only worked on it for a few minutes. Is this a scam??? trying to fix something but chargng money to come out to fix it but cannot fix it.?? He looked at a few days before and said he could fix it. When he came back, he could NOT fix it and charged us for doing a little work on it. He should have known from looking at it a head of time that he would not be able to do it. Scams keep going on -- I am not saying this is a scam but very STRANGE.

David is pleasant, but it quickly became apparent he was charging by the hour. Simple tasks took longer than necessary, in part because David made frequent stops to leave and pick up supplies, etc. (rather than waiting until he knew what would be needed and making one trip). His work is satisfactory, but the slow pace does not make it cost-effective.

David was able to do the work very soon after the initial contact. He made three visits, rather than two, to do the job because of my time needs. He was a little late all three times but called the first two times. He was organized, efficient, and pleasant. He charged $34/hr (a very reasonable price) but quoted $32/hr on the phone.
Description of Work: They took down and reinstalled mini blinds throughout the house.

David was a no-show. We had an appointment to him to come to my house and do the work. It snowed earlier in the day and traffic was slow in some places. He called my office, even though I was at home, and left a message that he was canceling due to the weather. The roads were fine by the time of our appointment. He promised to call back and reschedule. He never called back. Very unprofessional.

Job went very well, he was on time, and very efficient.
Description of Work: I called Mr. Schulz and when he called back he said he was going out of town but he sent me a Mr. Kris Robinson who helps Mr. Schulz when needed. Mr. Robinson completed the work very professionally and offered good suggestions on how to keep small animals from continuing to get in my crawlspace. Very reasonable price and would definitely use Mr. Robinson again. I assume Mr. Schulz would be just as professional.

Always calls ahead. Researched multiple vendors for appropriate materials and price. Checks to make sure price is acceptable before ordering materials. Cleans up area after work is complete. (I voluntarily gave a bonus for his work since I did not think the price charged was enough).
Description of Work: Installed a flexible metal exhaust for my backup generator through the wall to the outside so I can run my generator in the garage with the garage door closed. Checked heat along the metal exhaust hose to make certain there was no fire hazard. Installed heat insulation protecting the wall from the exhaust line. Made multiple trips to obtain exactly the material needed.

fencing
  + -1 more
I would highly advise anyone use this guy to help you out with odds and ends. Even if he can not help you out with something he probably knows a reliable and inexpensive person who can. I called 7 or 8 different fence companies to get a quote for the work Dave did. Many of the companies would not even give me a quote because my job was so small. Of the companies that did give me a quote they ranged from $315 to $450. Dave was a pleasure to deal with and did everything perfectly. I am definitely going to have him come out and help me out with a few more things around the house.
Description of Work: Fixed chain-link fence and added a gate.

Eighteen home repair items were presented when Mr. Schulz came in April 2006 to see what I needed done. He was to put me on his work list and call before beginning work. In May I called again and was told I was "second on the list". He failed to call since then to schedule or cancel the work. (It is mid-September now).

Response from David Schulz
ALTHOUGH THE MEMBER CALLED ME ABOUT THE JOB, HONESTY FORCES ME TO POINT OUT THAT I AM NOT THE PERSON WHO PERFORMED THE WORK. I CANNOT TAKE CREDIT AND THIS GLOWING REPORT BELONGS TO SOMEONE ELSE.

David was very polite and right on time. When he got the fan installed and turned it on, he found that there was no power to it. We showed him were the wiring was hooked into and he was quickly able to get things working. His price was actually less than what he had quoted me on the phone.

I called David and received a return call a couple of days later. He apologized for being slow to call back but had been out of town over the July 4th weekend. He came out early the next day in his red pickup truck and got to work. He was very friendly with an informal Midwestern demeanor. He also seemed to me very intelligent. The work was completed over the course of two mornings (it gets incredibly hot up in the attic by midday). David was very conscientious and I would say also meticulous in his craftsmanship. He added a bit of padding to the mounting board to help deaden the vibration, and I later realized how important that was. I was very pleased overall not only because the work was done right and done quickly, but also because David was so agreeable to helping out. I'm sure a lot of contractors would have declined such an uncomfortable work environment, so I'm grateful that David was willing to do this.
Description of Work: Installed an attic fan and an attic light. I already had most of the materials. The attic was accessible only by way of a very small (13'' x 19'') panel in the ceiling of a closet. There was no flooring up there, and the studs were buried beneath blown-in insulation. And of course it was incredibly hot up there - that's why we needed a fan.

DAVID WAS GREAT TO WORK WITH. HE HAS A GOOD ALL AROUND KNOWLEDGE THUS ALLOWING HIM TO DO THE VARIETY OF JOBS I NEEDED DONE. THE QUALITY OF HIS WORK WAS EXCELLENT AS HE IS VERY METICULOUS ABOUT DOING THE JOB RIGHT. HE RESPONDED TO MY INITIAL TELEPHONE CALL THE SAME DAY AND CAME BY MY HOUSE A FEW DAYS LATER SO I COULD SHOW HIM THE WORK THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE. BECAUSE OF THE NATURE OF THE PROJECT, HE WAS ABLE TO SPREAD IT OUT OVER A COUPLE OF WEEKS SO HE COULD WORK IT IN TO HIS SCHEDULE AND I WOULDN'T HAVE TO WAIT AS LONG TO GET IT DONE. I FELT VERY COMFORTABLE GIVING HIM ACCESS TO MY HOUSE SO THAT I WOULDN'T BE INCONVENIENCED. HE CHARGES AN HOURLY RATE THAT, BASED ON MY RESEARCH, IS VERY REASONABLE. HIS INVOICING PROCESS WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND INCLUDED DETAILED TIME AND MATERIAL EXPENSES. ALL IN ALL DAVID WAS MUCH BETTER AT COMPLETING MY ''HONEY DO'' LIST THAN MY FORMER HUSBAND!!!! I WILL USE HIS SERVICES AGAIN AND HAVE RECOMMENDED HIM TO OTHERS.
Description of Work: I HAD A VARIETY OF JOBS THAT NEEDED TO BE COMPLETED AS PART OF AN UPDATING PROJECT FOR MY 1962 DEVONSHIRE RANCH. PROJECTS INCLUDED: REPLACING 12 LIGHT FIXTURES; REPLACING 3 BATHROOM FAUCETS; REPLACING 2 CEILING FANS; REPLACING A MEDICINE CABINET; INSTALLING A BATH STORAGE CABINET; ADJUSTING SEVERAL INTERIOR DOORS TO FIT AND LATCH CORRECTLY; REPAIRING ROTTED SOFFIT & GUTTER BOARD.
