## The honest read

A recent customer hired Dan at DGM Advantage to repair and restore an aging garage after four other local contractors had assessed it: two declined, one said they couldn't guarantee the work, and one recommended tearing it down. Dan evaluated the structure, explained the underlying issues and presented options to restore the garage while improving its structural integrity, at a price that customer called fair and competitive. They said the garage is now structurally sound.

Dan installed attic pull-down stairs for a recent customer, who said he was punctual and that they felt comfortable leaving him alone in the home for a short time while he continued the job. For a rock sidewalk, a recent customer said Dan accommodated a short window before a party and got it done despite the weather.

A 2025 customer said Danny replaced an old bathtub with a stand-up shower and got the job done in a reasonable time. A 2026 customer said Dan showed up on time to do a variety of home improvements and repairs and cleaned up after himself. The company has also plowed: a 2025 customer who needed a plow company last minute said they came right out.

**Strengths:**
- Garage restoration — a recent customer said the garage is now structurally sound
- Attic stair install — a recent customer said Dan was punctual and courteous
- Tight deadline — a recent customer's rock sidewalk was done before a party
- Tub-to-shower swap — a 2025 customer said it came out great
- Last-minute plowing — a 2025 customer said they came right out
