He was very prompt when coming to give estimates. It took about 72 hrs from visit to written estimate. He went through the city laws to ensure that our fencing would meet current regulations. We ended up changing our fencing plan when we found out we couldn't put up a privacy fence as we planned without risking a huge fine. He brought catalogs with high quality siding and fencing for us to look at and choose from. Once we chose our fence and siding, it was about 3 weeks for them to come in. They were installed in about 1week. In the meantime his workers started the painting. They helped assist with color selection and accenting around the windows. It looked fabulous- for about 4 months then it peeled off on a window sill, and on the door. They did not remove the locks and knobs when painting the doors. That was a little annoying. The screens at the time were fairly individualized to each window as we hadn't replaced the windows yet. The painters put 3 of the screens in the wrong windows. They clearly didn't fit. We allowed FOD to keep their sign in our yard about 9 months after completion as we wanted to use them again for the windows. We hired them to replace our windows. During the process, they had to reduce the casing on a couple as his guys did it improperly the first time. One of the windows came in the wrong size so that took an extra 1 month to complete. We have a very old house that had thick trim around the windows that was replaced as it had lead paint. When removing it, they put a large dent in the plaster wall by the window. They did not comment and did not fix it. When he realized that the usual trims would not fit, we discussed how to proceed. I had mentioned when we started the project that we would likely need custom trim for at least 4 of the windows due to the plaster and walls around the window. He had forgotten this. We agreed that he would make custom trim for an additional cost. It looked great. One piece came loose right away and he fixed it. As the project was finishing, we noticed a gap above one of the windows that was seen from the outside. He told us he would fix it. We waited. It didn't get fixed. He promised that since we let him keep his sign in our yard for over a year on a busy road that he'd have our window trim painted for free (the exterior trim). This didn't happen. I paid his people to do it. They had problems with the screens again. They didn't reinstall them properly. It allowed one of our pets to push it out bending the screen and get outside. It bent the screen to an unusable state. I told him about it and told him that I just wanted him to know his people had trouble with screens. He said I shouldn't have to deal with replacing the screen. He would take care of it. 6 months later all I had was excuses and no screen. and quot;The company didn't call me to tell me to pick it up. They sent it back. They ordered the wrong one.and quot; In the meantime, one if the pieces of siding lifted away at a seam. During one if the calls about the screen, he promised he would look at it. He said this 3 times. There were excuses each time as to why it didn't happen. Finally, I told him that a was very displeased and to please just tell me how to order the screen and I'd take are if it myself. I have heard nothing back. Most of the work was done well, though it took some time to complete. The time it took would not have bothered me if he simply followed through on fixing the things he said he would. I prefer local contractors in general and am a good referer to my friends, also young couples with homes that occasionally need work. I would not work with Field of Dreams again because he proved at the end to have poor follow through and lost my trust.

I am very disapointed with his work and my roof has leaked in five different places. He has a five year warranty but my insurance company told me I had to sue him in order to get my roof fixed properly.

They did the work quickly and cleaned up after each window. It turned out great and we are having them come back in the fall for siding and a new roof.
