    He did very well. I would recommend his services.

    BK Paul was very professional and extremely nice to work with.--even though we talked to him for a very short time. His review of the work that was needed was clear and concise. We could tell that he was an experienced professional. We haven't gone to the next step because the contractor, William Bess, gave us a non-binding quote that the cost was much more than expected. We are trying to regroup and find the best solution to go forward. We did not see or speak with Willard Decker.

    Understood our needs and responded quickly. Professional. Actual fees were as estimated. Would use him again.

    Very knowledgeable in his field. I am a general contractor that needed a structural issue resolved. Mr. Paul worked well with myself and my client, addressing the issues in terminology that we could all understand. I have scheduled two additional clients with Mr. Paul as a result of the professional and courteous service that he extends.

    Nice guy, and very knowledgeable, however for the price I paid, I did not receive anything in writing (a short summary would have been nice) and I didn't even receive a receipt. All I received was some verbal advice, which, as a layperson, I'm not sure that I can remember or relay to my contractors.

    Response from Company:

    Customer did not want a report and or plan for her remodel but noted in her ratings that she was not given any report. You get what you pay for. Contractor said that he can work with the input I have provided, therefore, there is no need for report or plan. Report or plan cost additional fee which customer didn't want to spend. What can be done? Please make your own judgement.

    Seal of Approval

    What is the screening process that Service Professionals go through in order to become members of the HomeAdvisor network?

    1. Verify Trade License
      HomeAdvisor checks to see if the business carries the appropriate state-level license.
    2. Verify Insurance
      As a part of our screening process, we encourage professionals to carry general liability insurance. We require coverage for hundreds of services.
    3. Verification of State Business Filings
      For business types that require a Secretary of State filing, we confirm that the business is in good standing in the state in which it is located.
    4. Criminal Records Search
      HomeAdvisor uses 3rd party data sources to conduct a criminal search for any relevant criminal activity associated with the owner/principal of the business.
    5. Sex Offender Search
      We confirm that the owner/principal is not listed on the official state Sex Offender web site in the state in which the owner/principal of the company is located.
    6. Bankruptcy Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the history of the principal/owner of the business for bankruptcy filings by or against them.
    7. Legal Search for Civil Judgments
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for state level civil legal judgments entered against them.
    8. Liens Search
      We use 3rd party data sources to check the principal/owner of the business for liens placed against them.
    9. Identity Verification (SSN)
      HomeAdvisor verifies the social security number(s) of the owner/principal for identity check purposes. This check applies primarily to smaller business entities.
    10. Identity Verification (Reverse Phone Lookup)
      We conduct a reverse business phone lookup to identify records matching the phone number information provided by the business.
