Perfect contractor if you have time and money to waste! Contractor expects to get paid for doing half a** work, does not like to show up and does the opposite of what he says. Dan Schmidt said all the right things and agreed to all of our requests prior to signing the contract. It wasn’t until after we signed the contract that we found a negative review. Dan was asked about the review and he provided many excuses about how it was not his fault. He assured us that he worked for a difficult client and bragged that he knew what he was doing because he has been in business for over 10yrs and has done roof work for a local jeweler. Once the agreement was signed and some money advanced for materials, his tone changed and everything went downhill. Dan flat out lied on so many levels. He overpromised on everything from scheduling, time of completion, costs and work, and under delivered on it all. We met with him multiple times, only to hear excuses and how he was working so hard and how things will change. It felt like dealing with an adolescent who had excuses for everything. He accepted no responsibility provided no solution and was defensive about everything. It was difficult for us to understand how dis-organized he was and how difficult he made this process. Especially, someone who bragged about how much experience he has. After one month of wasted time, incomplete work and very little progress, he was fired. It’s been 3 months and he still has $2700 worth of materials in ransom, for $1500 of charges and expenses that were never agreed on nor discussed. We tried to be reasonable and negotiate but still no progress. So, we hired an attorney, who very recently sent him a letter. We’re not saying Dan stole our central air unit but it was stolen just days after our attorney’s letter was received. Currently we are still working on this matter and are hopeful to get our materials back. Don’t make the same mistake that we made. Pass on this dud!

This company provided a quote for repair of our stucco/EFIS in January of 2012. We were about to put our home on the market and needed some woodpecker holes repaired. Dan indicated that he would do the work when the weather warmed up. I am writing this on August 1st. The work was never done and he just informed me that he is not planning to do so. This is after dozens of emails and phone calls from me---none returned or made by Dan. Very unprofessional. No, I am in a real bind.

Estimate was prompt and details of the work were explained thoroughly. The work was accomplished during the time table that was agreed upon with no appreciable sawdust residue and a beautiful new finish on our floors. Detailed instructions on how to care for the floor were also explained to us and provided in writing for future reference.
