They were very responsive and scheduling the in person estimate was easy. After I accepted the estimate, they started the job just days later! There were a few things that impressed me about this company 1) my goodness do they work quietly! I work from home and I couldn't hear them at all; 2) they are very good communicators who let you know the status of the project and make sure that you're completely satisfied before they finish; 3) they're punctual; and 4) they're so friendly, too! Very highly recommended!

Blue Collar Scholars just completed a very big landscaping clean up of our front and back yards…read more The process started with Doug coming to give us an estimate. He was super friendly and helpful, walked the property, took photos, and got back to us with an estimate within a few hours. We did have to wait quite a bit of time between when we scheduled the work and when it actually started. Work was scheduled on 8/13 for 9/23. I appreciate that summer is likely a very busy season for them but our yard was a mess and we were anxious to get started as soon as possible. Their project manager, Fernanda, was extremely communicative and helpful throughout the entire process to get us started as soon as possible. If not for Fernanda, we likely would've been quite frustrated, but she was excellent. The work took two days and the results are absolutely stellar. This team was absolutely meticulous. The front and back yards both look incredible -- they were taken care of with such precision and attention to detail. Both the front and back yards are almost unrecognizable from their previous state. It could not have been more worth the money and we are so happy with the results. We'd recommend BCS to anyone with landscaping needs. We're blown away by how our home looks. We have a few ideas for future projects that we will certainly bring to BCS -- they can clearly be counted on to deliver.

Very disappointing experience, especially given their high rating…read more We signed an agreement with Blue Collar Scholars at the end of June for a new front and back fence and paid several thousand dollars toward the project. We understood that permitting could take time, particularly because our home is in a historic district, and our contract did not guarantee a completion date. My issue is not that the permit has taken time, it is how little they seem to have done during the time they could control. Before hiring them, my wife had already attempted to submit the permit application herself. It took her about two hours to put everything together, and the application was returned because an architectural drawing was required. We gave Blue Collar Scholars all of the paperwork from that attempt when we signed, so they knew exactly what was needed. Yet throughout July, we were repeatedly told they were "gathering documents" and "finalizing" the application. The architect they work with didn't come out to take measurements until August. Since coordinating their architect is within the contractor's control, we cannot understand why this wasn't done in July while they were supposedly "preparing" the permit application. It is now September 29, more than three months after signing and paying the deposit, and we have no fence and no approved permit. We've now been told there were comments on the application and that installation will take another 3-4 weeks AFTER the permit is approved. I don't blame them for DC permitting delays or historic-district requirements. I do blame them for failing to use the time efficiently and for providing vague, noncommittal updates instead of clearly communicating what was actually happening. After more than three months and several thousand dollars paid toward the project, having no fence and no approved permit is an extremely frustrating experience. Based on my experience, I would not recommend Blue Collar Scholars.

Also included was a rebuild of the rain gutters and drip edges beneath the railings. The originals were up to 43 years old and they were never properly designed or installed, resulting in drainage problems and water damage to the room below. The rebuild fixed the problems thoroughly and elegantly. The estimator Darryl showed that he understood the problem and the project goals at our first meeting. The proposed price was competitive, and the subsequent workmanship was excellent. The crew showed up within about a week of the contract signing and completed the work on schedule in about four days. The final result has been tested by multiple days of heavy rain, and so far has not disappointed!

On March 12, 2026 a technician from High's conducted a 10 minute inspection of our fireplace flu…read more The entire encounter is on film, as we have security cameras in the area where the inspection was performed. The High's technician did not inspect the fire box or damper. He was rude and extremely unprofessional. And clearly had some type bias. We found it astonishing that the company invoiced us for $285.00 covering the 10 minute inspection. On March 20, 2026, we had our chimney and fireplace inspected and cleaned by a top rated DMV chimney service. The new company spent 2.5 hrs at our home and informed us that they needed to clean the flu First in order for them to make a professional assessment. And did not see any need to issue any refrain from use order upon completion of the services rendered, as was done by the High's Chimney technician. Imagine a company conducting a ten minute inspection and then stating we needed over $15k in Chimney repairs. Our legal counsel will file formal complaints with all relevant regulatory agencies.

We live in a condo and the property management company uses Servpro as one of their main…read morecontractors so, in a way, we were, unfortunately, forced to work with Servpro. Because of this, we believe Servpro was being completely bias towards us (they even refused to provide us with a detailed report of the incidents; we were told it had to be approved by the Property Manager, which never was). The owner has a video out there talking about empathy and how he looks for this quality in the people he hires. Well, let me tell you, in our opinion, we did not see nor felt any empathy (and/or sympathy) from anyone at Servpro at all (felt more like a factory line... get in and get out). Their remediation department (one guy in particular) was a complete disappointment. This guy told us things that were not true and his whole demeanor was one of... "I know it all!" He even had his team put holes in our walls and when we complained, his response was, "Don't worry, the insurance will cover that!" We received a quote from Servpro to replace our wood floor, which included a $1,400.00 charge to remove & return appliances and a plumber charge since a "professional (according to them)" had to do it. So we brought this up and immediately got push back. We were told at first (verbally) that those charges were there because of the "estimating software" they use. Then, their own subcontractor (either by mistake or pure honesty) told us they would be the ones moving the appliances; yet, Servpro still wanted to charge the $1,400.00. This was an insurance claim for us, so we sent the flooring quote to our insurance carrier and they approved it. We were days away from scheduling the work, when we found out Servpro had quoted the wrong floor (prefinished vs. engineered)... Servpro ended up re-quoting the correct floor and we sent it again over to our insurance (they refused it so we had to find another contractor). We ended up finding another contractor who did it for cheaper than Servpro (the crazy thing here is Servpro not only wanted the amount of the quote, but also wanted a carpet credit that WE were entitled to receive from the management company... I brought it up to Servpro and they could not give me a definite answer as to why they wanted that money also; sounds like a total money grab to us). The PM who managed the work for us provided a very mediocre service. From her, "I cannot schedule the work yet, because it is not much to do!" to not responding to calls and saying, "I did not receive a call from you!" to texts saying, "I am on the road/I am at a job site!" So, basically, if she did not initiate a phone call, she would not answer the phone when we called. I also asked her for some additional quotes for cleaning and duct cleaning and her response was, "well, it would be best if you get quotes from somewhere else because they will too expensive with us because of our "estimating software!" Servpro knew the urgency we had with getting our condo back to normal (we went 6 months with no floor in our unit); yet, Servpro kept delaying the process, including waiting until 5pm to send emails to us, which felt was being done on purpose. Lastly, I will give credit to the owner because I reached out and, to my surprise, he responded... he did send his Director of Operations to do damage control, but by then.. it was too late.
