Dave and his team of worker's do excellent work. They rehabbed my entire house except for the kitchen. We plan on having them rehab our kitchen in the future. Quality of the products they used were great. They completely re-done our bedroom, bath, family room, and painted the inside of our home. All of the worker's were extremely professional and are now our friends. Dave is great at making suggestions and finding any problems that needs immediate attention. Anytime Dave needs a referral I will no problem providing one for him.
We did a complete basement remodel and added a bathroom with Classy Craftsman. From beginning to end, Dave and his crew were a pleasure to work with. He provided us with the most detailed and thorough proposal of all the contractors we talked to. His crew was polite, professional, punctual, and a pleasure to have in our home. They often worked past 5:00 to ensure the project was complete on time. The quality of the work far exceeded our expectations. The carpentry, tile, and paint finishes are impeccable. They went above and beyond to create a playhouse under the stairs, as a surprise for our son's 3rd birthday. Complete with a mailbox, flower box, and dutch door, they created a very special space. They also spruced up the unfinished portion of our basement with new floor paint, new storage shelves, a new workbench, and a new sink. Dave was the only contractor we contacted who even thought to include these touch ups in his proposal. While Dave was not there every day, he was always very accessible by phone, text, or email. His crew was also helpful in completing some small touch ups in our kitchen that our previous contractor left unfinished. We can't say enough good things about Classy Craftsman. Our basement went from being a dated, ugly eye sore, to a beautiful and functional space in our home. We would recommend Classy Craftsman to all of our family and friends and will use them again in the future.
Description of Work: Basement Remodel: framing and finish carpentry, drywall and painting, lighting and electric, doors, complete new custom tile bath with European enclosure/door, flooring/carpet, playhouse under stairs, plumbing, sump pump, shelving and storage, kitchenette with cabinetry, bar sink, and quartz countertop.

The owner came out to assess the project, but he never followed up with the estimate despite numerous attempts to contact the company. Ultimately, we cancelled the deal.
Description of Work: I purchased a deal for them to provide painting services.
1) Dave Beck (Classy Craftsmen) provided the most thorough, clear, informative and detailed proposal of the 4 contractors I had quote this work. 2) Classy Craftsmen were very appealing because they were willing to perform ALL the items we needed done, not just the big ticket items - but various handyman tasks as well. 3) Dave Beck was able to provide many suggestions and ideas that added value to the work we planned to perform, given their extensive experience repairing/remodeling homes throughout the city. 4) Dave Beck provided the most overall competitive pricing, and the most flexible scheduling of the 4 contractors I had quote this work. 3) As a contractor myself (unrelated work) - my expectations were incredibly high. The workmanship of Dave's crews EXCEEDED my expectations and everything was addressed exactly as expected, in most cases beyond. 4) Dave's crew members were exceedingly professional and courteous (and patient!!). There was never a moment of discomfort having them in our home, with our dog or our family! It was a pleasure getting to know them and spend time with them. They addressed our every concern....... 5) Most importantly - the workmanship was honest, excellent, and thorough to the point that it exceeded our expectations. We could not have asked for better work and craftsmanship, fairer pricing, or more professional contractors to have worked with. We are VERY pleased with everything!!! MY FAMILY AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THEM.

Dave responded in a timely manner to my request. After a few emails and calls to discuss the issues, he sent Brady over. Brady was honest and and just the expert I needed to get the job done. I had a large section of a wall and ceiling that were badly damaged from water. After the damage was removed, we discussed the only viable option -- fix the leak, most likely from the 100+ year old chimney in the center of the house, before it rains again! Two days later, the damage was repaired. Brady came back and did a fantastic job installing and finishing the drywall. He did such a good job with the repairs and cleanup that it was hard to tell he was ever there. At the end, Dave worked with me on an affordable price.

They were wonderful. It was during a very family tragic illness. They will be coming back in the spring. They are very kind, courteous, and quick.
Description of Work: They serviced my wood rot in my some of my windows.
We wanted a new house color and some exterior repairs done before winter set in. After getting several bids from other local vendors, we selected Classy Craftsman. They had the most comprehensive bid and they were willing to do the work before the cold set in. The house looks beautiful and we are getting many compliments from our neighbors. I've been very happy with the employees and the quality of the work. I have regular communication with the owner Dave Beck. Looking forward to the completion of the project.
He showed up late the day of the appointment. We went through the whole house said he would contact us with the estimate and told us the material that would be needed. So we bought the materials. We never heard from him again.

Dave Beck was great about making time to setup an appointment and was very friendly and answered all of our questions while reviewing the bathroom remodel. We had a lot of confidence in him after that initial appointment. We contacted Dave through Angie's List a while after the initial appointment since we hadn't heard back from him. Unfortunately, no response. We contacted him again, but this time through his website and did get a response. He said that he was out of the office due to a family medical "distraction", but that we would have the estimate by the following morning. It is now another week later and we still haven't heard back. I understand that emergencies are part of life, and respect his decision to put his family first. As a potential customer, though, with no estimate almost a month after the original appointment, we decided to drop him from consideration for the job.

They provide both excellent work and good ideas for using space well. Finished a bathroom, installed very nice cabinets and sound system and used space efficiently to add a small bedroom. Very easy to work with... Dave Beck communicates well and has a good eye for the homeowner in terms of safety, efficiency, budget and style.

Dave and his whole team are a pleasure to work with. Dave is full of ideas and has a great sense of humor - he'll try to sell you on his grand plans, but he's totally willing to work with whatever plan/budget you have in mind. His was one of 3-4 estimates we got, and he was right in the middle and most willing to work with us to reduce costs. He also provided multiple drawings and plans for the space at no cost (many contractors will charge you for that kind of consulting). We worked with at least 4-5 guys on his team (carpentry, plumbing, tiling, drywall/painting), and all of them were really great, easy, punctual, and trustworthy guys. The bathroom space is beautiful! It's a unique project because the room is rather small and has a sloped ceiling/wall on one side. The guys built a shower with a bench on the sloped side, installed a toilet and double sink, tiled the floor, created a window seat to cover the radiator, and built open-faced shelves in one niche. Their work included opening up the second floor WC to connect the plumbing, and even though they found some cracks and holes in the 110 year old pipes, they replaced them and retiled, drywalled, and painted that WC also at no extra charge. We've already had Dave come back to take a look at a couple other projects we have in mind, and we've given his name to many of our friends. I'd highly recommend him for almost any project you want to tackle.
Description of Work: Dave's team created a bathroom for us in a room on our third floor that had not previously been a bathroom.

This work turned out very, very well for a competitive price. We have used Classy Craftsmen several times for all different kinds of projects and as with prior work this project gave us a result we are very happy with. The team is committed to creating good quality work and it shows by the end. While they will work with your budget and style requirements, they also work hard to make sure you end up with something you will be happy with and that will last. We often find the process of doing these kinds of projects to be bumpy - once the project starts things never go quite as originally envisioned and it's not always a perfect process - but by the end the work is very good and we are happy that we chose Classy Craftsmen. I would definitely recommend them to others.
Description of Work: Renovated a bedroom, including construction of a closet where none existed, installation of some built-ins, removal of non-working fireplace, wall/ceiling repairs, new carpet and paint.
We have been very satisfied customers of Dave Beck's Classy Craftsmen for 15 years. We have always found his crew to be highly skilled, professional and courteous, and respectful of our property and privacy. The work is done in a timely manner while still accommodating our daily schedules. The crew always makes sure to take care of any finishing touches that we want done on each project. Also, during the time they are working at our house, Dave's crew will often do small jobs or repairs not related to the projects for which they have been contracted. I am very happy I found Classy Craftsmen on the Angie's List website. We appreciate Dave's fair estimates and his thorough, detailed planning for each project. Since we have hired Classy Craftsmen so many times, we obviously highly recommend this company.
Description of Work: The Classy Craftsmen crew has done numerous jobs for us over the years, the most recent being a basement bathroom and stairway project which involved carpentry, painting, lighting, plumbing, wall and floor cement work, and tile floor installation.

Completed work turned out great. Painting was perfect. Dry wall repairs turned out better than expected. Brady, our craftsman, did everything in a careful and professional manner. We would definitely use Classy Craftsmen on all future projects.
Description of Work: Dry wall repair and painting.
Classy Craftsmen did a superior job. Communication was done, by phone, email and text. We requested some minor changes and Dave immediately contacted us with a very reasonable price. The clean up was done with nothing left behind for us to do!!!! Very easy company to deal with, followed up on each and everything that was quoted. Absolutely "Classy Craftsmen"!!!!!!
Description of Work: Completed foyer....Dave had his crew repair drywall holes, paint. They then installed wainscot with all trim and painted to completion.The gentlemen doing the work were personable and very professional. They cared so much about the work, one of them forgot a section and we were contacted they would return to complete. We hadn't even seen the missed spot yet......

I'm currently selling my condo in Mason. As part of the inspection, the buyer requested that I fix a few things which required drywall repair. I called 10 or so drywall companies. Since I was on a deadline, most of them could not fit me in their schedule. Dave not only returned my call promptly, he was able to squeeze me in as soon as possible. Brady was assigned to the job and he did an amazing job with the drywall repair. He patched several holes, re-finished and repainted the entire wall in under 3 hours. The end result looked flawless...I honestly cant even tell where it was repaired! I highly recommend Classy Craftsmen and will be using them for all my future projects.

Dave came out and spent about 45 minutes discussing what we wanted to do to our kitchen cabinets as well as various other projects that needed done around the house (painting, flooring etc.). When he left he said he would email a couple of quotes (repair or replace cabinets). I contacted him a week later to follow up on the status of the quotes and got no response and to this day almost two months later I have not heard back from him. It would have been nice if he had had the courtesty to say he wasn't interested in the job rather than not follow through at all. Not very professional in my opinion. A waste of time.

Response from Classy Craftsmen
It's been almost a year since this service was completed. This member's memory is obviously failing him, because we performed the work on the agreed date, did it in one full 8 hour day, apparently did it well, and he was not invoiced for anything beyond the value of the 8 hours handyman coupon he had already purchased. We did not even charge for the small amount of materials we used on his job, which would have been within our rights. We did this work in preparation for panting to be performed by another painting contractor... who apparently had no ability to do modest drywall repairs. I suspect this member is confusing us with billing issues he may have had with that other contractor he used around the same time.

I have used this company before. I liked the work done and felt the owner and worker were professional. In this case the contractor had my permission to complete this project when I was not home. Since I was not home and I never go on the roof I did not know if the work had been done. So I called him to find out when he was sending someone. That is when I found out it was complete. I was a little disappointed no one called me to tell me they were coming or that they were done. After that I had J & T roofing do work on my home. He of course inspected my roof, no charge, and made comments about how the vent pipes had been repaired and sealed. Commenting that it was not the best way to handle such repairs. I often have to take one contractors information/opinion about another's work with a grain of salt . Especially when I am not able to see what gets fixed.

Response from Classy Craftsmen
Regarding the quality of our work, questioned by the other contractor... yes, it is good to take such comments with a grain of salt, and I feel that good contractors can make a living on their own merits, without resorting to badmouthing previous contractors who are not there to defend themselves. We repaired not just the single leaky vent flashing (rubber around pipe through roof), but the others which were also compromised. Very typical repair, and we've done hundreds of them in the same manner... rather than actually disturbing the roof shingles and replacing the entire flashing, we slip a rubber repair "boot" over the the pipe, which does a fine job of keeping water from getting in. We did all of them for less than the cost of a full replacement of just the one, and the repair will last well beyond the remaining lifespan of the roof shingles... at which time a roof replacement will include these complete flashings. This customer is very budget-minded, as are most these days, so I assumed she would appreciate the cost-savings and comprehensive approach to addressing these troublesome vents.

I contacted Dave thru the instant messaging on Angie's List. We setup a time to meet at the property for the estimate which worked great. We met Dave on 4/18, my husband and I, and went over the details of what we'd like incorporated in the bid and the colors we had selected for the exterior. Being that it was the Friday before Easter, Dave said he would email the quote early the next week. After not hearing from Dave after 2 weeks, I sent him an instant message 5/4 asking of the status of the bid. There has been absolutely no response since the first day we met which as of today has now been over 5 weeks. We have met with another paint contractor, Certapro, and had our bid within the hour. Needless to say, we feel Classy Craftmen has no class when it comes to handling customers.

Responded to initial contact within 24 hours, and scheduled, rescheduled site visit due to rain. Promised estimate by end of the week, as he wanted to time to revisit site for better review in better weather. Seemed surprised when I also asked him to send info like his insurance and bonding with the estimate. I have not received an estimate or any contact from this company despite my contacting them twice via text and email. They are obviously disinterested, as they were with one other recent Angie's List reviewer.
