We had rented our house for several years and wanted to repair it for sale. Our listing agent recommended this individual, so we went with him. First, let me say I don't mind paying for things, but expect it to be done correctly, timely and to have the work done good. It took over 3 weeks from start to finish to "repair" things...way too long. With the house listed for sale, and things being done, it was not a good way to show. Also, there was damage done to the attic stairs and wall in the hallway that was not correctly repaired. The threshold repairs at the front door crumbled within two weeks, and when I called and asked for repairs, I NEVER heard back...enough said! The dissatisfaction that I felt about this job is the main reason that I decided to join Angie`s List for ALL my needs now. I will only use folks that have positive feedback and a proven track record. I can not recommend this company to anyone. The price WOULD have been a good one, if the quality of the work was good.

Response from Dan Murphy Construction
Murphy Construction regrets such a negative response from a client. The circumstances were these: 1) the client was deeply upset that her renters had destroyed her family home. They wanted to move back into it because they had such fine memories. 2) We have worked with the listing Realtor for over twenty years with great results. 3) There was a final walk-thru with this client where they signed off on everything and paid the invoice in full. They were asked repeatedly if all work had been executed to their satisfaction. No final payment was requested until the client gave their approval. 4) We believe the client was upset with the renter not us and had no recourse with the renter. 5) The house was never on the market for sale. They were doing the work to move back in. 6) In almost twenty years, Murphy Construction has had fewer than two complaints. 7) The client's anger over the condition of her home, due to the renters, is the basis for this complaint. Not our work.
