D S Bahr Construction Inc

David Bahr was always on time for our appointments. He was polite and professional. The job was well done, even though it took longer than anticipated due to weather issues. They did an excellent job in cleaning up the site when the job was completed.

"Through its owner, this company is trustworthy, practical, thourough, professional, uses quality materials, gives sound advice, is responsive to a customers needs, demonstrates commitment to real service, not "lip service." For example, at no charge he repaired damage that wasn't even his responsibility, and that wasn't even discovered until after the job was done and the bill paid."

EXCELLENT. RECEIVED 6 QUOTES. NOT ONLY WERE THEY THE LOWEST PRICE, BUT THE WORK WAS DONE IN A LITTLE OVER 1.5 DAYS. THEY WERE KNOWLEDGEABLE AND TOOK PRIDE IN THEIR WORK.

SAID EVERYTHING IS FINE BUT FOUND ROTTED LEAVES THAT WERE WET AND DIDN'T CHARGE ME FOR FINDING THAT.

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT I HAVE USED D.S. BAHR CONSTRUCTION FOR A CONSTRUCTION JOB. THE WORK THIS TIME WAS DONE A LITTLE HASTILY, BUT WAS MOSTLY DONE WELL.

HE WENT UP ON THE ROOF AND INSPECTED IT. HE TOLD ME THAT THE PROBLEM WAS NOT WITH THE ROOF. RATHER IT WAS A PROBLEM WITH A SEAL TO A STACK FROM THE BATHROOM HAD COME LOOSE. HE RESEALED IT. WHEN I ASKED HIM HOW MUCH I OWED HIM HE SAID "NOTHING." I WAS REALLY SURPRISED. HE WAS A VERY NICE YOUNG MAN. HE WAS VERY PROMPT IN COMING. I CAN RATE QUALITY AFTER IT RAINS.

THEY DID SOME REPAIRS TO THE PLYWOOD UNDERNEATH AND INSTALLED A NEW ROOF. I THINK THEY WERE VERY REASONABLE IN THEIR PRICES. I WISH WE WOULD HAVE WALKED WITH THEM TO REVIEW THE JOB BEING DONE AND GO THROUGH THE DETAILS. I KNOW THEY ARE A GOOD COMPANY AND THE ROOF IS SOLID AND WILL LAST. I JUST WISH WE HAD BEEN MORE PROACTIVE FINDING OUT ABOUT ANY STRUCTURAL IMPROVEMENTS THAT COULD HAVE BEEN DONE. THEY COMPLETED THE JOB IN LESS THAN TWO DAYS AND WE ARE GENERALLY PLEASED WITH THE WORK DONE. APPROXIMATE COST IS AN ESTIMATE, CAN'T REMEMBER EXACT AMOUNT. I WOULD CONSIDER OTHER SERVICE PROVIDERS (INCLUDING THEM) IN THE FUTURE.

VERY PROMPT AND FRIENDLY. FAIR PRICE. CHOSE ANOTHER COMPANY WITH BETTER DESIGN IDEAS.

DAVID AND HIS CREW INITIALLY PUT SHINGLES ON MY NEW ROOF. HE AND HIS CREW ARE EFFICIENT, PROFESSIONAL, AND EASY TO WORK WITH. THEY CLEAN UP NICELY WHEN THE WORK IS FINISHED. MY EXPERIENCE WITH MY ROOF PROMPTED ME TO EMPLOY THEM FOR MY SIDING AS WELL. THEIR PRICES WERE SUBSTANTIALLY BELOW OTHER QUOTES I RECEIVED. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.

DAVE CALLED ME BACK WITHIN AN HOUR. HE HAPPENED TO BE LESS THAN A MILE AWAY FROM OUR HOME AND OFFERED TO CHECK IT OUT. HE CALLED ME BACK TO LET ME KNOW IT HAD BEEN PUT BACK ON IMPROPERLY, BUT IT JUST NEEDED TO BE TURNED A BIT TO GET THE RIGHT FIT. HE SAID HE HAD MADE THE NECESSARY REPAIR. I ASKED HIM TO MAIL US THE BILL AND HE SAID THERE WAS NO CHARGE BECAUSE IT ONLY TOOK A FEW MINUTES. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS COMPANY. BOTH INTERACTIONS WE HAVE HAD WITH THEM HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY POSITIVE.

10/17/05: I JUST WANTED TO SUBMIT AN UPDATE TO A PREVIOUS REPORT I MADE REGARDING THE INSTALLATION OF A SKYLIGHT IN OUR HOME IN THE FALL OF 2003. IT IS NOW THE FALL OF 2005 AND THE SKYLIGHT CONTINUES TO LOOK GREAT AND WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT. NO PROBLEMS WITH THE COMPANY OR WITH THE SKYLIGHT INSTALLATION--TWO YEARS LATER IT LOOKS GREAT AND WE HAVE HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT.

DAVID BAHR WAS EXCELLENT. HONEST, PUNCTUAL, AND VERY HELPFUL. HE DID NOT TRY TO SELL US MORE THAN WE NEEDED, AND HE EVEN SHOWED US HOW TO FIX A SMALL PROJECT OURSELVES.

BAHR CONSTRUCTION WAS THE MOST PLEASANT AND PROFESSIONAL ROOFING COMPANY I'VE EVER WORKED WITH, AND THEY WILL DEFINITELY BE FIRST ON MY LIST TO CALL THE NEXT TIME I NEED WORK DONE.

MR BAHR IS ON THE BALL. HE FINE TUNED OUR QUOTE SEVERAL TIMES AS OUR SITUATION CHANGED. HE FIXED SIDING, THAT WE BELEIVE HIS CREW DAMAGED. HE FIXED A PLUMBING VENT FLASHING WITH NO CHARGE EVEN THOUGH HE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN RESPONSIBLE. AND HE DID EVERYTHING PROMPTLY. MY ONLY PROBLEM WAS WITH SOME DIFFICULTY COMMUNICATING WITH HIS CREW, WHICH HE RESOLVED.

I WENT WITH ANOTHER COMPANY WHO HAD A LOWER BID. HOWEVER, I DID HAVE SOMEONE COME OUT SHORTLY AFTER I CALLED FOR THE BID AND THE COMPANY RESPONDED QUICKLY ($5350).

DAVID WAS VERY KNOWLEDGEABLE AND WAS THE ONLY CONTRACTOR WHO WAS COMPLETELY HONEST WITH ME. I SPOKE TO 6 OTHER CONTRACTORS WHO ALL WANTED TO SELL ME PIECES OF WORK I DID NOT NEED, BUT WAS TOLD I DID. IS THIS BECAUSE I'M FEMALE? DAVID VERY PROMPTLY RETURNED PHONE CALLS ON ALL QUESTIONS I HAD DURING THE PROCESS. (HE WAS VERY PATIENT) HIS CREW WAS HARDWORKING, POLITE, AND FAST. THEY DID OLD ROOF TEAR OFF AND THE NEW ROOF INSTALLATION IN JUST A LITTLE OVER ONE DAY. CLEAN UP WAS DONE SO WELL (A MAGNET WAS USED FOR THE NAILS) THAT YOU WOULD NOT HAVE KNOWN THEY WERE EVEN HERE. DAVID HAPPILY APPLIED THE ANGIE'S LIST DISCOUNT WITHOUT MY REQUESTING IT. THE ONLY PROBLEM WAS DAMAGE TO MY OLDER FACIA IN THREE PLACES DURING THE ROOF INSTALLATION. DAVID DID SAY HE WOULD REPLACE IT WHEN I HAVE THEM DO THE SIDING REPLACEMENT. THE ROOF LOOKS GREAT, EVEN MY FATHER WHO IS A PERFECTIONIST APPROVED! DAVID'S PRICE IS COMPETITIVE AND I AM VERY PLEASED WITH MY CHOICE OF ROOF AND CONTRACTOR.

DAVID BAHR CAME TO GIVE AN ESTIMATE ON REPLACING A TILE ROOF. I ENJOYED HIS CALM MANNER. HE DID SUBMIT A BID. HOWEVER, I DIDN'T PICK HIM BECAUSE HE SAID HE WOULD NOT RE-USE ANY OF THE OLD TILE. ALL OTHER TILE ROOFERS AND EVEN THE COMPANY THAT SUPPLIES TILE PREDICT THAT 85% OF THE OLD TILES WILL BE PERFECTLY GOOD. TILE IS EXPENSIVE!

THIS COMPANY HAD A GOOD RATING ON THE LIST BUT DIDN'T BOTHER TO RETURN MY CALL FOR AN ESTIMATE.

DAVE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND WAS VERY GOOD ABOUT GETTING BACK TO US ON ANY PHONE CALLS. TOOK CARE OF SEVERAL CONCERNS VERY PROMPTLY.

HIS CREW DID A VERY GOOD JOB. HE WAS DELAYED BY THE WEATHER (RAIN) FOR A FEW WEEKS. DAVE COULD HAVE DONE MORE PREPARATION ON THE PLAN AND SUBMITTING THE INFORMATION TO THE CITY, WHICH CONTRIBUTED TO THE DELAY. AFTER THE PROJECT WAS COMPLETE AND HE CLEANED UP, I WAS DISAPPOINTED BY THE NUMBER OF SCREWS/NAILS I FOUND ON THE GROUND (2 DOZEN) AND HE ALSO DENTED ONE OF THE DOWN SPOUTS. HE DID A QUALITY JOB AS I COMPARED HIS WORK TO SOME OTHER NEW DECKS IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD THAT WERE RECENTLY BUILT.

EXCELLENT! DAVID ARRIVED ON TIME, COMPLETED THE WORK QUICKLY AND PICKED UP MATCHING SHINGLES AND LEFT US WITH EXTRAS FOR FUTURE REPAIRS.

DAVID WAS PUNCTUAL, FRIENDLY, AND KNOWLEDGEABLE. HE ADVISED THAT I HOLD OFF ON REPAIRS AND JUST PUT ON A NEW ROOF IN A FEW YEARS. HE WROTE OUT A DETAILED ESTIMATE (WHICH WAS HALF THE COST OF A COMPETITOR'S) FOR THE NEW ROOF FOR ME.

THE END RESULT WAS NOT WHAT WAS ORIGINALLY CONTRACTED, BUT DAVE & HIS CREW REALLY SAVED THE DAY FOR ME. THIS WAS SUPPOSED TO BE A SIMPLE JOB, BUT UNFORTUNATELY IT TURNED INTO A MAJOR FIX-UP. THE HOUSE'S ORIGINAL BUILT-IN GUTTERS WERE APPARENTLY THE ONLY THING HOLDING THE FASCIA TO THE ROOF STRUCTURE. SO WHEN THEY REMOVED THE GUTTERS, THE FASCIA STARTED TO FALL OFF! PRIOR TO THAT, WE FOUND, AS THEY REMOVED THE SHINGLES, THAT THE LAST ROOFING CONTRACTOR (7 YEARS AGO) HAD NOT REPLACED THE ORIGINAL DECKING. SO WE HAD MAJOR SPACES/HOLES IN THE WOOD UNDER THE SHINGLES. DAVE & HIS CREW TOOK CARE OF EVERYTHING - FIXING THE PROBLEMS, CALMING ME DOWN, GIVING ME UP TO THE MINUTE ESTIMATES OF HOW MUCH MORE THINGS WERE GOING TO COST. THEY WERE WONDERFUL AND I CAN'T RECOMMEND HIM ENOUGH. IT COULD HAVE BEEN SO AWFUL, BUT DAVE MADE IT ALL WORK.

VERY COURTEOUS, PROFESSIONAL AND TIMELY! THE DECK LOOKS REALLY GOOD!

CALLED FOR ESTIMATE. RECEIVED PROMPT AND COURTEOUS SERVICE, BUT WAS DISAPPOINTED IN ESTIMATE PROCESS. HIS BID WAS HIGH BECAUSE HIS MEASUREMENTS WERE NOT ACCURATE. HE DID NOT USE A TAPE MEASURE, JUST ''PACED IT OFF.'' I WAS LEFT WITH THE IMPRESSION THAT HE REALLY DIDN'T CARE ABOUT THE JOB, MAYBE IT WAS TOO SMALL. I WOULD PREFER TO WORK WITH SOMEONE WHO WANTS MY BUSINESS.
