Did a good job.

My house entry door had long-standing wood rot in several places. I decided I'd better get a professional to fix that. I called Scott Purvis based on his homeadvisor.com ratings. Scott came over right away, looked at the door and made some suggestions as to how he would fix the door. I liked the plan, and hired him. Scott's work was excellent, he kept me advised all along the way and I am very pleased with the door as it is now.

Used Scott as a sub on a job. Great work, fast response, happy client, and a fair price for the qualify of the work. Would use again.

Scott is a very dedicated, talented and customer pleasing man! He gladly came back and retouched the stain on the new front door he installed... 3 times! The door itself was expertly installed and his advice from the start was invaluable. Call him! You will be so glad you did...we are!

To Whom It May Concern, I am completely unsatisfied and disappointed with my business dealings with Mr. Scott Purvis. I gave Mr. Purvis a deposit for services dated 10/21/2016, and was told my service would be performed by Thanksgiving. After four months of excuses, on February 11th, 2017, Mr. Purvis finally showed up with a completely unsatisfactory product. He misrepresented his ability. He will not return any of my deposit; therefore my only recourse is small claims court. I strongly do not recommend his services.

Both Scott and his helper were thorough, pleasant and easy to work with. When he had to attend a personal matter, he was quick to notify me of any delay and keep me informed throughout the project. I would recommend him to anyone.

Mr. Purvis was prompt in his response for service. He kept me informed throughout the project regarding material costs and estimated time of repair. My fence was repaired and I am totally satisfied with his work. I would recommend Mr. Purvis for any fence repair or installation.

Scott did great work and was fair priced. He arrived when agreed and did the work quickly. I would recommend and utilize Mr Purvis in the future.

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.
