Based on the great reviews and work done for friends, we contacted DC Contracting to repair some hardwood floor and fix the leaking door that was the cause. Dave came over and evaluated the situation and juggled some work around to accommodate our small job (14hrs).
Dave and Doug were a pleasure to deal with and did an excellent job. Highly recommend and will be my first call on all future work.
Thanks so much Dan. It was a pleasure working for you. By cutting the stucco to remove the door to let everything dry out we then could install the custom flashings at the door sill so you ll never have that problem again.
Thanks again for the work and the great review.

This is my fourth renovation that Dave has done for me. This one went smooth like all the previous ones until while installing the glass doors on the tub. Dave centered the doors but that was a mistake, they needed to be more forward. Sadly some of the tiles were drilled into. So Dave like the honest man he is, tore out one wall and a tile on the other wall, replaced it all and installed the doors as they were meant to be. He did that all on his dime. Can't ask for better than that!
I have no more renovations for him but if I did it would be Dave and Doug hands down.
Thanks for all the work over the years Mark. I am grateful for the trust you have in me. I don t like making mistakes but things happen. That s why I was up front right away and fixed everything up as quickly as possible. And of course at no charge to you. Sorry for the inconvenience and enjoy your newly renovated bathroom. I will add the before pictures then the demo of the one piece tub/shower cut into pieces to remove it from the space. Then the install of the new acrylic tub, with new valve and polished porcelain tile with the sliding glass doors.
Thanks again
Dave
Very pleased with Dave and Doug of D.C contracting. Lots of prior consultation on the job. Dave is very knowledge and knows his stuff. Daves work warrantty for one full year also pleases me. This is my second project with the boys. They renovated my kitchen in 2013 and had to have them back in 2020 for the bath.
My only problem is getting into the Que...
These guys are always busy but well worth the wait ...
Thanks Kelly for the faith you have in me. It was a pleasure working with you again on this wonderful project. From using a picture of what you wanted and incorporating the porcelain tile with the natural stone you picked, with the engineering necessary to carry these fixtures... it was truly a pleasure!

Very impressed …
My project ran rather smoothly with Dave at the helm. very knowledgeable and skilled. Money well spent …. I also am a big fan of his one year guarantee on workmanship, which of course I did not have to use . But good to know it was in place.
Book in advance … this guy is good !!!
Hoping to start my bathroom renovation in April … His guidance is already showing with good advice.
Thanks Dave and Doug. I am always proud to show off my house and the work you have done on it ...
Dave saved me and my home from a fraudulent contractor who can be found on Trusted Pros. I had lost all trust and faith in contractors but Dave turned me around and I soon had no concerns with him working in my home. Dave and Doug were great. They worked everyday, showed up when they said they would, and took great pride in the quality of their work. I am expecting to bring them back to address other areas of the house in the immediate future.
Thanks so much for the kind words Mike. I m very happy that I could restore your faith in contractors. The bad ones make it hard on the good ones. In a time of stress I m glad you put your faith in me. It was a pleasure working for you. And to you and everyone I say this loud and clear that you have a one year warranty on my work.
Thanks again!
Dave
We’ve had Dave and Doug work on a few projects in our home including installing new interior doors, closet doors and remodeling our floor to ceiling fireplace. We were very happy with the quality of work, the attention to detail and Dave’s eagerness to bring a unique look to our fireplace and surrounding cabinets. Dave is a personable, honest and very trustworthy contractor whom we welcomed into our home without any reservations. We would definitely have him back in our home to help with future renovations.
We highly recommend DC Contracting for all your home renovations!
Dave is not only a fantastic carpenter, he has a great personality so he is very easy to work with.
We had him renovate our kitchen and his great work was even better than we imagined!
For quality work, great service and a trustworthy individual ... you will not go wrong with DC Contracting!
Thank you very much Earl. It was a pleasure from the first time we met to going through each detail to the completed project. I smile with gratitude at your kind words and so glad you love your new kitchen!
Also I appreciate you hiring me to install the custom roof over the deck before the snow flies!
Ps I m adding so before pictures and completed pictures.
I was in need of a quick deck fix and some interior work popped up as well so I could put my house on the market and Dave came to the rescue. He is very knowledgeable, quick, kind and good at what he does. I would recommend him to everyone I know.
I m so sorry Crystal that I didn t reply to your review until now! No excuses not to thank you for those words in a timely fashion but hopefully better late than ever.
Thank you for the work on that structural part of the deck so it was secure for the sale of the house.
Hoping all went well.
Dave
Dave and Doug did our fence last year. We were so impressed with their work that this spring, we hired them to completely renovate our kitchen. Again, their work was impeccable. The kitchen turned out exactly as I wanted it. We definitly would hire Dave and Doug again.
I am very unstable and Dave came and put a stair rail on my sidewalk. He is a very continuous worker and a very pleasant person. Thank you very much for the good work. I would recommend him to anyone.
