I wish I didn't have to write this review: we had a great experience with the company a couple years ago (so great that I served as a reference for them!), so when we needed help with a substantial primary bathroom renovation, they were our first call. Unfortunately, our experience this time around was terrible -- I cannot in good faith recommend them anymore. Giving two stars (rather than one) because the work quality was very good. Subs did a great job, were friendly and cleaned up after themselves. In the end, we didn't go over budget. But we paid a lot of money and experienced a lot of unnecessary delay and drama. In short, our project was a victim of poor communication and lack of ownership taking responsibility. We went through four project managers: the first went MIA on us, delaying the demo start by 6 weeks; the second hadn't read any of the project briefing and let us to believe none of our materials had been ordered; the third was too busy with other projects to make ours a priority; and the fourth was brand new, didn't really know what he was doing, and wasn't getting the oversight he needed from leadership. To the company's credit, they didn't end up charging us for project management--as we'd been doing a big portion of it ourselves. Ultimately, a project that should've taken 8-10 weeks took 16 weeks (and that's after the 6-week-delayed start). The thing that was most frustrating was that while Dan was fairly responsive to our outreach when things were regularly going wrong, he was also regularly pretty dismissive of our concerns and didn't take responsibility for all of the mistakes and screw-ups that were the result of his team's failings--failing to read the brief; failing to install underfloor heating and electrical that was in the brief, resulting in ripping up tile that had just been laid; failing to inspect goods on arrival so that they could be replaced when broken without delaying the project; failing to tell us about budget implications of design choices, etc. Dan will say I was mad when things went wrong, and that some of those things were out of their control. Yes, I was mad. But mostly I was disappointed that I trusted this company, and they took advantage of that trust. read more

Dan was fabulous! Was he the lowest bid? No. But the expertise and guidance that he provided me after my whole home renovation was abandoned by another contractor was invaluable. My project manager, Jake, was a joy to work with. He was always responsive. read more

When I bought our home in 2004, it had a fine, wooden deck attached. Lately my wife noticed that the deck was a bit decrepit and so contacted the Dan Company to build a sturdy replacement. Even though hampered by the Covid virus and the requirements of our HOA, the doors they replaced and the rebuilt deck were all very high quality. We'll call the Dan Company for any future renovations to our home and have already recommended them to our neighbors. read more

The Dan Company - Deck with gas grill - General Contractors Near Me - Nashville, Tennessee

I'll be completely honest: An absolutely great job. We had a small half-bath torn out and re-modeled and it looks like a million bucks. My wife said we should have dinner in there--best looking room in the house. Now... it was a little bit pricier than I expected and took a little longer than they originally said (I've noticed that's pretty normal these days with inflation and labor shortages), but you couldn't ask for a better result, so it was well worth it. And you couldn't ask for a better group of people to work with. Everyone, from the owner on down, was personable, understanding, and concerned about getting things right. read more

After 10 minutes of an arrogant and condescending attitude, Dan throws out an absolutely absurd bid, 10s of Ks over my other bids. I laughed all the way back into the house ... actually, I'm still laughing. read more

We contracted the Dan Company to do a complete kitchen remodel. The Project Manager assigned to our project was Robert Brightup. The completed project is absolutely magnificent and we are thrilled, to say the least, with the final result! We did not experience any problems at all with any of the Dan Company's personnel or their work product. Everyone who came into our home represented the Dan Company with stellar performance and energetic work ethic. Every member of their workforce was mannerly and demonstrated that the Dan Company selects only the finest professionals to perform their work. We cannot say enough about out Project Manager, Robert Brightup. We saw or talked to Robert almost every day. We've never encountered a more responsive member of any company we've ever dealt with! He made himself available to us any time of the day and any day of the week. There was no waiting for a response to our questions. If we needed answers, advice, or even an opinion, Robert was there! We now consider Robert like a member of our family! What caps off our wonderful experience with the Dan Company and Robert Brightup is that they completed our remodel five weeks ahead of schedule! So, if you need any remodeling work done, we highly recommend the Dan Company and you might also consider asking for Robert Brightup as your Project Manager. You will not regret choosing the Dan Company! - Lew and Helene Phillips - read more

I was searching for a contractor to come and assess a load bearing beam at a house we were looking to buy. The folks at dan company were very quick to reply and reach out. I sent them pictures of what would need to be done and instead of them giving me an answer I wanted to hear they gave me the truth. They gave me a realistic estimate it would be if we were to instal a beam across the living room and what would need to take place in order for that to happen. I can honestly say that they operate with loyalty to their customers and future potential prospects. I did not use their services as we did not end up buying that house, but I appreciate the thoughtfulness and honesty you displayed. Thank you! read more

Great customer service and the techs that completed the work were great and respectful. I would hire this company again and refer them to anyone! read more

I did not use this company. I took 4 bids to have new floor, toilet, sink installed and replace existing exhaust fan. I was providing all materials. Their quote was $2300 higher than my other 3 bids. I'm still trying to understand that. read more

I had some minor issues that needed attention and I was unsure myself how to proceed. I contacted a number of contractors on Yelp and Dan was professional and generous with his time. He explained to me what I could do myself to fix the issues so I'm going to give it a try. Should more issues arise, Dan will be at the top of my list to contact. read more

I'm a new homeowner and needed to speak with a knowledgeable contractor to get a second opinion on things that may or may not be covered under my one year builder warranty. Dan took the time and gave me great advice. If I need anything to be fixed or done right, they will be my first call. read more

Showed up on time and the appointment was scheduled very quickly. The 1st to make an available appointment to our schedule! Professional, friendly and knowledgeable. The highest bid received. read more

We used The Dan Company when we first purchased our home to take out 2 columns, and paint rooms and areas in our home. They did a great job. We used The Dan Company again recently to repair and redo our kitchen ceiling that another company left looking very unprofessionally completed. Dan's crew was fantastic. They were on time, cleaned up, and very knowledgeable of what needed to be done to get the ceiling looking perfect. read more

We have used the Dan company twice now and have been very pleased.  We needed someone to replace and paint exterior wood on our 1910 house.  I called for a quote and someone was there within the hour.  The workers show up when they are supposed to (not a common characteristic for most handymen/contractors) and they do the job right.  They follow up with you continuously through all phases of the process, quote to finish.  And if you are not satisfied with something, they work to make it right.   We have been looking for years for a dependable company to call when we need jobs done around the house.  We won't search anymore, we will just call Dan. read more

I was in need of an immediate gutter repair and a crawlspace inspection on my home but had a list of several other "handyman" jobs needing to be done as well. I found The Dan Company online and after doing some research contacted them to set up an appointment. I was immediately impressed with how quickly the office manager contacted me to set up the initial appointment and equally impressed with the project manger I met with to discuss my home issues. The work was scheduled for the following week and the two workers that came to take care of my more immediate repairs were extremely professional and did a great job. I look forward to working with them on my other home issues! I work as a Realtor and will definitely be referring this company to my clients!! read more
