I have relied on Gibson Construction for help in the past but my most recent request was to apply a sealant to our large, cement driveway. David responded promptly to my text, arrived on the job punctually, and applied the sealant in a professional manner. I believe this treatment will protect the concrete not only from daily wear-and-tear but also from the more harsh elements of snow, ice, and salt during the winter season. Also, I respect and am thankful for the time, effort, and product donated to the support of so many individuals devastated by Hurricane Helene. Thank you Gibson Construction. D. Jarvis

Great. David Gibson came out to our property and rebuilt a long (several hundred yards) gravel driveway after clearing up a number of fallen trees covering sections of the driveway. Work completed within 2 days, including first day in which high wind blew down several additional trees damaged when Hurricane Helene went through earlier in the week. His company has maintained the driveway for about 5 or 6 years and he provided expedited work as we were one of his established customers. Price was good and a bargain considering how quickly it was done and the number of jobs to do in Asheville, NC area after Helene.

Gibson's Grading and Construction team did an excellent job! We would highly recommend them to anyone who needs help from someone who actually knows what they’re doing! We started off with a “simple” flooring and countertop quote which turned into a complete remodel once it was all said and done. They literally made this house our dream home. We have the utmost respect and faith in David and Joe’s ability and knowledge that we hired them to do it all: demo/electric/plumbing/structure-floor support/wood floor installation/countertops/new doors and so much more. These two are more than friends, they’re now family - and we are absolutely blessed to be lucky enough to cross paths when they weren’t already booked up saving someone else. We’ll have them come back in the spring for grading, some seriously overgrown landscaping and back deck install. Don’t wait another minute… give them a call!

David found structural issues in my attic from a tree falling on the house a couple of years ago. These issues had not been addressed by the roofers. He made necessary repairs in the crawl space as the house had settled. Very pleased with all of the repairs!

We had damage to the gravel driveway after 5 inches of rain. A culvert got blocked and the driveway washed out. David came the next day and graded it smooth. He made it more than passable. He made it better than before the rain event.

David was very helpful and proffesional. Our house was built in 1960 and had a lot of electrical issues. David re-wired everything and divided the circuits and was able to put everything into a single breaker box with no voltage losses. He helped us set up the new dishwasher and dryer as well as the garage door opener. He has always maintained our driveway which is a long, gravel uphill driveway. We would not let anyone else touch the driveway. He also dug a drainage trench which repaired one downspout on the house that had been leaking into the basement. And the last job for us was removal of a very large dying tree which was next to our parking area. He gave us a great price on all the work and stayed on budget. We highly recommend David, and will use him again for these type of projects around our home.

David did an excellent job as always. He added gravel and scrapped the driveway which is now as smooth as driving a street. This is perhaps the fourth or fifth time David has done our driveway. He is always meticulous in his work.

On the morning of our project start date, David emailed us that due to lack of materials and some inclement weather, he had to postpone our project. The weekend prior, we had diligently moved, at his request, 20 plants out of the way for the new drainage system. A reschedule was not a problem. What was a problem was David never getting back to us with a reschedule date or any explanation as to the delay. He did not respond to our email requests. Very disappointed. Very poor customer service.

David recently did some interior work for me. One of those was installing a Ditra heated floor system by Schluter and then tiling it. David said he had done this numerous times so I trusted his expertise. After 18 days of the premixed adhesive not drying and being told by David that there must be something wrong with the chemical makeup of the adhesive (all 8 buckets) He said he had written the adhesive company emails about the product’s inability to dry but I never saw any even tho I repeatedly asked. I went on the Schluter website and they PROHIBIT the use of premixed adhesive on this flooring system, I asked David to call the Schluter company and he refused. All the tile had to be removed, along with a huge amount of wet adhesive. David would accept no responsibility (neither personal nor financial) for the project’s failure. I repeatedly requested for him to meet me half way with the big financial expense I was out, he said no and continued on with denying responsibility. Updated 10/29/24 Initially I hired David to secure my foundation, I thought he did a great job….please read my earlier reviews. The response David Gibson wrote to my review is a LIE…I NEVER ripped up the tile, NEVER said I wanted a different flooring, my neighbor did NOT write the review he said she did. Do YOU know ANYONE who decides after spending THOUSANDS of dollars on materials/labor that decides to rip it all up ? NO !!! David GIBSON is LIAR ! And takes NO responsibility for his mistakes.
Description of Work: Tiling & install of heated flooring system which is what this review pertains to. Other projects were to include window/door install, removal of walls, building of new ones, etc.

we have been doing multiple jobs and we got to the kitchen portion and she had went and purchased the hated floor system tile and tile set from a dealer so we laid the tile down and on Friday 24th we had showed up to grout the tile and set the cabinets inside and everything and prepare the installed that portion on Monday the 27th. we showed up Monday the 27th to install the cabinets,sink and plumbing. when I walked in the kitchen I was in shock she had actually pulled up a third of the floor and ruined the tile I asked her why did she do this she said on Saturday she seen engineered hardwood floor she liked and would rather have that so she decided to pull up the tile without me knowing it or even contact me! she said she want to pull up all of it before I got there so we could put down hardwood floors but she said it was too hard for her to pull up the rest so she wanted us to pull up the rest of the floor so we did and she was supposed to order the hardwood floor. Note: several times during project she would watch home improvement shows and change something in the middle of a project. Wednesday morning we showed up to work I said good morning like I do every morning to everybody and she started cussing me and acting extremely volitale this seemed out of her character because it was it made no sense. to make a long story short we loaded our tools and left the job site because of her behavior that was unprofessional but down right verbally abusive! and when I read this review it even puzzled me further? she watched home improvement show decided she did not want tile and took it upon herself without me knowing on a Saturday tear up the floor because she wanted engineered hardwood floors! but yet she says I'm responsible for half the cost when she's the one that purchased the floor system and the materials and she's the one that tore up the floor not us! and to make another point on that Friday she wrote me a check that she had insufficient funds and bounced on the Monday! she admitted to me on Monday that there was a problem with her account but she went ahead and wrote the check anyway! and what makes matters worse I looked at this review above this one and realize that was her friend that actually came over to look at the work we was doing so she got her friend a purposely write a false review! we done everything we could with this project, there was nothing wrong with the tile or anything. she took it upon herself to rip up a third of the floor and ruin the tile because she wanted a different type flooring and this was done without me knowing or anything. I am lost for words on this because I don't understand the reasoning behind it! we do our best to help people and everybody loves the things that we do they're very happy with it

Contacted David regarding a heavy impact to a commercial building. He was prompt to respond and came out providing an estimate as promised. He was extremely professional, and very knowledgeable of how the impact effected different areas of the building and most importantly load bearing posts and the foundation. While working he was very conscientious of employees and clients being sure to let us know when he would be using loud equipment necessary for repairs. Areas outside the building he put caution tape to ensure everyone’s safety. Competed job in a very timely manner and was polite and a pleasure to work with. Would absolutely hire again.

David Gibson is truly a gem. I hasten to speak his praises too much as then he’ll be really difficult to get to do work….but he’s too great not to share. After dealing with a bunch of slimy contractors David is like a breath of fresh air. The main focus of the work was supporting the floors and adding a proper sump pump to drain away from the foundation. He’s knowledgeable, hardworking and honest, went above and beyond, and exceeded what my o’ so low expectations of contractors has become. His Dad often accompanies him and assists David in some projects….they are both a pleasure to work with. I’d hire him again in a heartbeat…and indeed I am.

This was the second time that we were fortunate to have David and his father work on our very old, mountain log cabin. He found and repaired many issues to the foundation, joists, outside wall, and leveling everything up. Crawl space is limited, but they were able to reach the areas. Again, his work is perfection.

I would highly recommend David. After finding him on Angi, I had him inspect a slope and retaining wall on a house we are looking to purchase in Franklin. The home inspector had noted some settling of the porch, and I worried about the stability of the slope underneath the porch. The current owners had a local person build a retaining wall a few years prior, and they were convinced that any erosion issues had been resolved. However, David immediately pointed out to me that the current retaining wall wasn't built properly and was failing to do its job. Already, there was so much erosion that he could literally slide his hand under the base of the retaining wall, and he warned that we were sitting on a time bomb. In fact, David said it would literally be only a matter of months before we had a much bigger problem on our hands. I contacted the owners, and -- about a month later-- they agreed to have David fix the problem. Even from the time when David first came out, more erosion had occurred in the ensuing several weeks -- just as he had warned. He did a great job of building a much more substantial wall and also graded the top of the driveway to fix a drainage issue. I can't imagine the mess we'd have had to deal with if the problem had not been addressed. Before contacting David, I'd spent a good bit of time researching contractors in the area. The mountains are wonderful, but they are also home to a number of contractors who do very questionable work (as evidenced by the contractor who built the first retaining wall). When I saw that David had over 250 positive reviews on Angi, I knew I'd found our contractor! He did not disappoint. If you're looking for someone you can trust to do slope or foundation work, look no further. David is your man.

David did a wonderful job repairing our wood floors, subfloor, joists, foundation, and outside drainage. It took me two years to locate the right contractor with the level of knowledge, experience, dedication, creativity, confidence, and willingness to work on our 200 year old log cabin with a 60 year old foundation. The floor system was failing from the ground up. I found David on this website. The glowing reviews confirmed that I had found the right person to match with the needed repairs. It was a lot of hard, physical labor involved. David cared about our historic cabin and removed the old floor boards carefully so that they could be re installed. The floors are level and strong now. He completed the project in under three weeks. There are so many other issues that he discovered and repaired. I will hire him again for phase two and three! We are so thankful and grateful to David and his father! And thanks for this helpful site to introduce contractors to frustrated homeowners and show legitimate reviews.
