I've seen them around our community and I love supporting my local businesses. I called on a Sunday and Eric answered - first big surprise, was expecting to get voicemail. I explained to him the problem of knocking in my pipes and he said it could be a number of things, said he could come out later in the week. Then he began telling me what the problem could be and asked that I check something under the sink. I did, he told me what to do and bam, the months-old problem was gone. He saved me the grief of hearing this massive knocking every time we turned on the hot water, and saved me hundreds of dollars. To be clear, he didn't need to do that. He could've have hung up the phone, come out on Thursday, turned the valve several times, and handed me an invoice for a couple hundred dollars. But he didn't, he did the kind, neighborly, and professional thing of taking care of the problem on the spot even thought it meant no revenue for him. Good business is a long-game. Do the right thing and the customers, and money, follow. Eric clearly gets that. In this day and age, that's priceless.

I specifically explained that I was interested in a full bathroom remodel, not just a shower replacement. Based on those representations, I agreed to schedule an appointment. When the salesperson arrived at my home, I was surprised to learn that the company only focuses on showers and does not provide complete bathroom remodels or custom bathroom designs as I had been led to believe. Despite realizing early in the appointment that their services did not match what I was looking for, I still sat through the sales presentation because I understood the salesperson was giving up his time to be there. The presentation lasted approximately an hour and a half. At the end, I was given a very expensive proposal, but no picture of how the shower would look like. When I followed up and requested to receive a picture of how the of the shower would look like as I was promised, I was told that they do not provide designs and that I should simply look at photos on their website (this statement came directly from Mr. Jones who was the lead design team. This was completely different from what was presented to me when I agreed to the appointment. I felt the advertising was misleading and that the primary goal was simply to get a salesperson into my home rather than provide the service that had been promised. I was also told that I could receive a discount if I left a positive review, which made me question the authenticity of some of the company's online reviews. Additionally, I was offered what was presented as a "free vacation" if I agreed to move forward with their proposal. However, as the details were explained, it became apparent that this was not truly a free vacation but rather a promotional offer tied to a timeshare-style presentation. This felt like another example of marketing that was not fully transparent upfront. Throughout the appointment, I felt significant pressure to decide on the spot. The overall experience reminded me of a high-pressure car dealership sales environment, where the focus seemed to be on getting a signed contract rather than understanding my needs and providing the services that had originally been promised. I believe companies should be transparent about the services they offer and should honor the commitments made to potential customers. Unfortunately, that was not my experience here.

Dan knows his stuff when it comes to repair and remodeling...a jack of all trades. I quickly learned that in the rare instance that he doesn't have the ability, he'll either learn how, or find someone who does and still get the job done well. He's reasonable with his rates, and provides excellent customer service despite his busy schedule and being in relatively high demand for a small business. Finding out he's a retired Navy Chief was also a selling point for me, and further supports why he is a hard worker, honest and fair. He's my go-to when I need a repair/remodel, or simply have questions about DIY household projects. I most recently hired him to tow my new trailer home and repair the electrical issues, and he went above and beyond. Also, a while back when I moved into my current rental, there were no counters or shelves in the kitchen, and he built me exactly what I needed on my shoe-string budget, even repurposing some of my old book shelves to help me save $. I know he does a lot more high-end, complex and costly jobs that involve full remodels, but I think it's cool that he doesn't treat the little jobs like a waste of his time. read more

I asked Dan if he could install my new Ring security system. When he came over to do the work, very prompt and on time, he pointed out the older porch lights I had. He suggested that the new black Ring light I bought is black and the porch light was white and admittedly, outdated. After a consultation with the boss, our new plan was to replace the porch light, add a new light and install the ring with the ringer inside. Not sure how we went from one hour of work to 4 but leave it to my lady to "help" make decisions. All this on-the-fly changes didn't scare Dan one bit. He took it in stride and did an awesome job. read more

He reset 3 posts, 2 of which did not set because the holes were not deep enough. He came one full day and 3 days after that for maybe a total of 3 hours.

I ended up hiring someone else to fix it. The shelf was not centered, he didn't use Mollies to anchor the screws and he also damaged the wall and didn't tell me until I noticed it. He said he was going to fix and center for free but he was going to charge me $150.00 to patch a 4x4. I didn't mind him coming back but after I saw the damage he did I feel he lacks experience and I didn't want to take the risk and my shelf coming out of the wall. He is a nice guy but definitely should be watched from start to finish. He even covered my outlet with the shelf which I can only use one of the two outlets. Anyway, I don't think he's a shady person, just not attention to detail and just macgyvered the job.
