Bought the deal and it was about two days until I got confirmation and request for a date. We scheduled and he came back with a request for pictures and description. Sent him that. He came out on the date, spent ten minutes and said his ladder was too short, and he was going on a mission trip for two weeks and would re-schedule when he got back. He sent a reschedule request finally and I replied that he needed to be prepared to fix it this time. He replied that he didn't want to do it now and to get a refund.

Response from Dave's Home Repairs
Mr. [member name removed] review was accurate up to the point where I made my first visit. The gutter was 3 stories tall and he had implied that I should stand on a ladder setting on a prefab sunroom roof to reach the gutters. When I arrived I felt it unsafe to stand on the roof. I did go on a mission trip which I felt more important than Mr. [member name removed] gutter. When sending an email to complete the job with a taller ladder I received a rude confirmation. I felt it best to not have an additional hard feelings so I declined doing the work. I am copying the last two responses between the two of us. Dave's Home Repairs 7/20/2014 [member name removed], We will be there Friday the 25th around 11:30am. Thanks and God Bless, David [member name removed] 7/21/2014 Okay, I hope you will be prepared this time, that will be 23 days since I made the order. Dave's Home Repairs 7/21/2014 Mr. [member name removed], I am sorry you feel that way please feel free to have your money returned. I am sure it will not be a problem to find someone to do the job for $80. Best regards, Dave [member name removed] 7/22/2014 I am still planning on you being there Friday at 11:30. I need to get this fixed, all the rain has been very worrisome. Dave's Home Repairs 7/22/2014 Mr. [member name removed], I am sorry, I will not be there on Friday. Your remark about my preparedness, has made me uncomfortable in fixing the gutter to suit your needs. Going up three stories is beyond a "handyman" service call. I have the ladder in storage, but it does take two men to pack a ladder that will reach that height. The safety concerns come with walking on a roof of a prefab sunroom, which I thought I could do from the pictures that you sent, but once there, realized that I could not. Since you had pre-purchased a service I was trying to accommodate your needs as best I could, but at this time, I feel it in both of our best interests for you to get a refund and to find a contractor to fix your issue. Thank you for your time. Best regards, Dave

The bottom piece of wood on the glass sliding door was rotting and I thought it should be replaced. When Dave's Home Repairs assessed it, he said the wood frame could not be replaced and that the doors needed to be replaced. He charged me nothing for his wasted visit to my house and he was a friendly and knowledgeable man.

The house is 60+ years old and so needs attention from time to time. The caulk around some of the windows as in need of repair, and other holes had been left uncaulked where old electrical and gas pipe work had been done. Dave completed all the work within the time arranged for the work, doing a good job. He also identified a loose hardware cloth screen covering the window in front of the attic fan that should be replaced and noted where touch up paining is going to be needed. He was fully professional, knew what he was doing, and I will use him again.
Description of Work: Examined all exterior windows and doors and redid caulking where needed. Caulked other exterior gaps where found. Consulted on other possible repairs in the near future.

I purchased this service through an Angie's List Big Deal as I hadn't been able to find anyone locally willing to do several small jobs for a reasonable price. Dave (and his daughter, Amy) arrived at the pre-arranged time and began work promptly. He worked on the outside tile repair job, while she worked inside on the drywall crack. They were both very pleasant and efficient. Amy repainted the area herself where the drywall crack was repaired - a task other people would have left to the homeowner. They cleaned up after themselves well and left the area as neat as they found it. Dave returned the following day to caulk the tiles he replaced/repaired. I can't judge the overall quality of work based on these small jobs, but I have arranged for him to repair the rotting fascia board on my outdoor shed - a much bigger job. He said he would be able to do this by the end of this month, so we'll see how well it goes. So far so good and I'm glad to find someone willing and able to take on smaller jobs. This was a great deal for me and more than worth the cost of the deal!
Description of Work: Replaced tiles on front porch. Repaired drywall crack. Reattached cabinet trim in kitchen.

Currently this is a father-daughter team that work really well together. They arrived promptly and were sure to keep me posted telephonically for work appointments. Dave has a quick understanding of tool & assemblage requirements, even with equipment he is initially unfamiliar with. They did not waste time in order to extend pay periods, they were efficient and a pleasure to speak with. I would suggest sending equipment nomenclature/info so they can research operational methods before appointment; I failed to do so but they still figured it out and it works wonderfully. Its a storage space in garage and am maxing out the weight without concern if it was installed right because I know it was.
Description of Work: This service installed a large storage unit in my garage which required specialty tools and more than 1 person to complete in a timely manner.

The work was all done in a day. I could find no fault with the quality of the work. David is a very nice, easy going fellow, who was easy to talk with and who was entirely forthcoming with information. He also provided all his receipts for materials he used to do this repair. The quality of the repair certainly was worth the money.
Description of Work: An area of the exterior of my home was replaced with new weather resistant wood due to water damage. The repair is so well done that it now looks better than the rest of the wood exterior. The wood replaced was trimmed to exactly match the appearance of the existing wood; you honestly would not know from looking at it that it was a separate repaired area except for the fresh paint.

It could not have been any better. What I liked about it is that he provided a picture of what he could do with it, and when it was finished, it looked exactly like the picture, and I was very happy with that! It was also a very reasonable price compared to others we obtained estimates from.
Description of Work: We had some pillars on our front porch that were weather beaten and rotten. We got Dave's home repair to come in and repaint and repair them.
