This man came to our home was very rude to my elderly parents demanded they put a mask on stating, "you need to put a mask on I have kids." My mother told him that's fine we have all been vaccinated in our home but we'll put one on. The way he demanded we put a mask on was rude and not professional. I proceeded to tell him we are both nurses and when we ask patients to put a mask on in their own home we don't demand we request. He then said,"okay then bye." He then closed the door and when I asked him was he leaving he said, "yep." Sir that is absolutely not the way you do business. read more

I encountered this unfortunate excuse of a man because he came into the place where I work 10-12 hour days 6 days a week. I am a single mother with a teenager, and struggling to make ends meet. After greeting him with a cheerful disposition, he didn't look at me, or even address me, and then begins waving his wedding finger in my face. As if I was, or would ever be desperate enough to flirt with him in hopes to gain an extra buck or two on a tip line. I asked him if a few more questions, trying to decipher his desired method of communication, when all of the sudden he bursts out a food order, without having looked at a menu. I laughed and joked about his knowledge of our menu, and that is where he decided to pull his "ethnic" card on me. Mind you, I am also of the same ethnicity, although I don't appear to be. Then when I politely inform him that I, too, am Hispanic, he berated me for not speaking Spanish. And tells me how I am not Hispanic if I don't speak Spanish and how could I not learn my native tongue! Not that it was any of his business, but my "phucks" were already given, and I explained to him that I wasn't raised in a multilingual household. I told him I didn't need to prove myself to him and that I was sorry for not being what he demands someone else of his ethnicity to be. A few more things were said and I walked off to pack his order. Another employee, who was dealing with other customers, says he began yelling at her that he wanted to cancel his order and wanted his money back. I should have kept the money and told him to GTFO... but I was the bigger person and handed him is cash back, gladly, to get him out of the restaurant. What a vile little man. Ha! Man? Noooo.... He's worse. He's a chauvinist, and arrogant, for reasons that are beyond me. A man speaks to a lady with respect. He treated me and my fellow coworker with disdain, and thought we owed him something because we were sharing the same air. Davey Do?? More like Davey DONT! I know this has nothing to do with his "business" but more about the character of the person DOing the business. "No Bueno....!" --- did I say that right??? read more

Minus ten Stars!! This guys name is David Soto, has a fake business address and a made up website. I got involved with him while he was hanging out at Home Depot. My home was in a bad electrical fire last June in North Arlington. The worst mistake of my life...took complete advantage of the situation. Gave me what I thought was a very good estimate and ask for over 50% with materials and labor! Ha!! Like I said the worst nightmare of my life. I was being pressured by my Insurance Co to build and the HOA would not talk. I was confused and vulnerable. David Soto will only take cash or checks then charges 35. dollars for a processing. Found out later his Lc. had expired five months before. He is a Crook and a liar, took all my insurance money and then some. He put up sheet rock on the ceiling and I did not have a roof, that was the HOA responsibilty. He painted over mold, told me I either needed a new air conditioner or to repair it! My A/C was in the attic...I found out later he did nothing to it. There was no electrician he did it himself..it was all wrong. Very scary after an electical fire. He ask for more money after five days, and followed me back to the hotel because I did not have my checks with me...very scary! Bullies ,lies, cheats, rude and sarcastic. I ask him for reciepts and an itemize list several times and he would grin and make up more lies. He will get as much oney from you as he can and as fast as he can. When I would not give him any more money he canceled the granite I paid for and threathened me saying he was going to put a lien on my property. There is so much more but I'm sure you have heard enough. After three weeks I had to hire someone else and start all over. This is when I found out what a horrible disgusting person is. If you happen to run into him remember this review! Davey Do is not a contractor he is a Con-artist! He breaks the law everyday, this is what he does for a living. I made a complaint to the BBB and he came back with some very disgusting lies about the whole fire and about myself. There is no business address! read more

Tried to get a quote from this guy for a backsplash and he was pretty sarcastic when I told him his bid was more than twice what everyone else was bidding. I wouldn't work with somebody who can get off on the wrong foot in under 5 minutes. read more

never never, he is a scammer who will double charge, he is not capable of the work he says he can do, he does not honor contracts, he wants u to pay up front for work because once you see he work it is horrific. he is a fast talker who is so confident and once he screwed up my stuff, the store who recommended him then told me he had been removed from the "LIST" they don't let him leave cards at the store but they allow him to hang out all day and screw over their customer. I pissed him off due to his complete lack of knowledge and work and then he my materials disappeared. I have had to hire people to repair what he broke and he will screw you with a smile on his face. EVEN THOUGH I WILL NEVER SEE A DIME WHEN I SUE HIM. I AM DOING IT ANYWAY TO HOPEFULLY KEEP HIM FROM DOING THIS TO YOU OR ANYONE ELSE. ALSO I AM CURRENTLY PURSUING CRIMINAL CHARGES AGAINST HIM BEWARE BEWARE BEWARE. read more

DO NOT USE HIM TO WORK ON YOUR HOUSE. I paid him to paint my house, he said he would be there at 8 am with a crew and would take 2 days. Showed up at 3 pm by himself and the first room he painted he did the wrong color. After accusing me of giving him wrong information he realized he made a mistake and said it was to late to start over. Came back the next day with a father and teenage son and his helpers ended up quiting. 4 days later my house was still not finished and he stopped showing up and wouldn't take our calls. Luckily we didn't pay the whole job up front. read more

November 25th 2016, Black Friday at Home Depot, David Soto aka Davey Do a self proclaimed handyman said EXCUSE ME while he pushed his way into the aisle. I stepped back to let him by and he stopped in front of me and proceeded to close the tool box I was looking at purchasing. I said Sir I was looking through that and he replied its the last one and it's mine now. I responded I don't think so and he repeated himself adding get the (expletive) out of my way as he pulled the carted tool box out banging my right leg and rolling it over my foot. He continued with I'm going to kick your (expletive).. not here but in the parking lot as several shocked customers watched. BEWARE of this guy when shopping at Home Depot.

Showed up 2 hours late, even after we called him at 30 minutes late and he gave us a new arrival time. Workmanship started out good but as job wore on and he got tired workmanship took a noticeable decline. Pricing is tricky; quoted a price with and without materials. Said he could get a discount on materials. Then he wanted us to advance him money for materials. We refused; he bought the materials himself then demanded cash immediately upon his return from Home Depot (before he even started the job). In the end, materials cost significantly less than he produced a receipt for but he demanded the full quoted price of labor and materials for the job. Finally, ask before job if he accepted any credit cards, he said cash or check. When the job was finished, he would only take cash. Said if we paid with a check, he would have to charge us sales tax and his check cashing places fee. Made us drive to an ATM to withdraw cash while he followed us (very scary). Avoid. Comes across as very nice initially but seems shady and scary. Check out the hidden reviews below on Yelp. It is obvious they had similar experiences with Dave Soto. read more

David Soto is a crook. He starts working on your house and after he has gotten as much money as possible he quits. My house is destroyed. All he did was demo the kitchen and bath. Also items were missing after he left. Don't let him near your house. read more

I have never been more dissatisfied with a service in my entire life. I contacted this overly confident individual a few weeks prior to my husband and I beginning our trailer renovation project. His confidence in being able to deliver EXACTLY what we were looking for convinced us to hire him for the job. We expressed to him that we would have LIKED to get the trailer done prior to us leaving for a family trip he assured us he could have it done... Upon finally getting started, he arrived around 11am every morning after telling us he would be there between 9-10am. Sometimes he came as late as 12 noon. He was misleading on his knowledge about trailer renovation. He had in fact not known ANY details on where to buy supplies or how to install certain appliances. The guess work wasted a lot of our time and money. He came with a few wood boards in hand and a very small amount of supplies on the first day. The following day he claimed he needed some things from Home Depot. He told us the supplies would cost about $40... He returned with over $200 worth of supplies. Keep in mind on our phone conversation prior to hiring he assured me he could find low cost supplies and second hand products to keep us within our budget... This too was a lie. My husband was upset about the misleading amount we were given previous to him being hired. Every day following the man sat around until WE BROUGHT HIM supplies. Claiming that my husband "got mad so he wasn't bringing him any more receipts". This too wasted lots of time and money. Being that we aren't contractors we got a lot of the wrong materials and he used this as an excuse for us not to have met our deadline. When it was all said and done... The trailer is UNFINISHED. At the final walk through I asked him about several concerning areas IE the ceiling with lumps in it... The paint on the lights from not being protected during painting, the uninstalled fixtures etc. he waved his hands at me and said he's "done". Called a friend in front of me and talked about me in front of my face. Asked if we were going to "pay his balance" and then told me to watch my back. As if he were threatening me. This is the Least Classy and most unprofessional experience I have ever had and I would not recommend this company to change a lightbulb. I will also be reporting him to the BBB. He quoted Us $1000 less than what he has received. And also lied to my husband and I and attempted to play us against one another. This is the worst experience I have ever had professionally. And I'm severely hurt and disappointed. DO NOT HIRE... read more
