"Steve Gavin, the owner came out and provided me with a great price that was inclusive of the entire scope of the project. During our meeting he took the time to explain the process that his company uses. Once the permits were issued the crew arrived the next morning at 7:00 a.m. as promised. The crew met the deadline for a 1:30 inspection from the Village of Deerfield. They not only met the deadline but they passed the inspection without any issues to be corrected. The crew worked until 7:00 p.m. completing the job. I would also note that they left my home spotless!"

"This is the worst company I have every worked with, and I do not recommend using them. Not only did the not get the job done, but they were rude and inconsiderate throughout the entire process, and have no idea what customer service is about. We hired them for a fridge repair. They came for the initial diagnosis, and said that we needed 2 replacement parts after collecting $125 from us for that. We set up a new appointment for a few weeks out, which we were assured would be enough time for the parts to come it. Fast-forward to the day-of the appointment, and no one shows up. I then call D&S to ask where they are, and they tell me that the parts we needed were not in and they were not coming out today. When we asked why the appointment wasn't canceled and why we wasted a day staying home from work, they said that they "don't have the staff" to handle reaching out to cancel. The owner then got on the phone, did not apologize, turned things around and yelled at me for not being patient (even though we just wasted an entire day off of work to wait for them), and told us that we can either book a future appointment or use someone else for the fix without a refund. We booked another appointment, so as to not waste any more of our time or money on a different company for the diagnosis and replacement part order. The next repair person came as scheduled and installed the parts and collected a $300 check for the work. He told me that everything looks great and is functioning, and that we just need to wait a least a day for the fridge to cool down. I could not hear a motor running and asked him about it, but he said it was fine. Then nothing happened and the fridge did not cool down. I called back in 2 days and had to set up our now third appointment, for a "manager" to come and take a look at what's wrong. The manager came and was immediately able to tell us that the diagnosis was wrong and that we need a new fridge because the costs to fix would outweigh the cost of a new fridge. That manger assured us the second $300 check would NOT be processed because of the misdiagnosis and the hassle that we have been through, and we would just lose the $125 diagnosis fee. THEN D&S PROCESSED THE $300 CHECK ANYWAYS without authorization or notice. When I noticed that the check was processed and called D&S about it, they said that they always process checks and then issue refunds, and the manager should have told me that. He didn't and D&S did not apologize for the lack of transparency. They said they would send me a refund, and I said great. After a week, it did not come. I called back and they said they would send another check because the first should have gotten to me already. After another 4 business days, it still hadn't come. I called to ask about where my money is and the owner again got on the phone and treated me like everything that was going on was my fault. When I asked him where the check is and what will happen if it doesn't come again, he said "I will not talk to you about the future, you need to focus on the present and you will get your check sir." He did not apologize once and was extremely defensive on the phone when I was simply asking for information about when I should have gotten the check and what happens if it doesn't come again. The check came eventually, but only after EIGHT WEEKS of not having a fridge and going through **** and back with this company. Some of it was not their fault, like the back-ordered part, but the lack of cancelling the appointment, processing of the check they shouldn't have, and HORRIBLE customer services without any apologies for their mistakes was 100% in their control. I would never use this company again if my life depended on it. They misdiagnosed the issue, missed an appointment while we were waiting at home from work for them, cashed a check when they said that they wouldn't, and then yelled at me when one refund check had gone missing and I wanted to learn about what happens if the second one doesn't arrive. They caused nothing but headaches and NEVER APOLOGIZED OR OFFERED ANY SORT OF REASONABLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. They are clearly not willing to hold themselves accountable for mistakes nor make things right when they screw up. I had to buy a new fridge after 2 months without one and that delay was caused by their mis-diagnosis. If they diagnosed correctly, I would have had a new fridge within a week. Then they took my money and make me feel bad for asking where my $300 refund is. Completely unprofessional company, who NO ONE SHOULD EVER WORK WITH."
