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.

I hired them to fix our back patio grout which was coming out and had holes in it. They didn't schedule a time and showed up one day with a bunch of workers. Unprofessional, but ok, we went with it. Once they were finished he demanded payment, when I pointed out issues he got visibly angry and started yelling at me. Said he "wasn't god." I had to go, because remember, this was an unplanned visit. He followed me until I told him I would be back in a few hours. When I would point out issues he said it looked great and there was nothing to worry about. The only thing he was willing to do was clean the stone, which does nothing for the grout. He also upsold us on a driveway replacement, which I regret now as he was very pushy and we probably didn't need it. I can honestly say that it's worse now that they've done the work. I tried to get a refund and they refused. It's questionable whether they are even licensed in Virginia.
