SD built out a small retail establishment for us in a timely and professional manner. Over the years, weve gotten a lot of compliments about the look and feel of our space. Its not easy to make a commercial space feel homey and inviting. Hire these guys if you truly want Something Different than your average contractor.

Dave is an extremely knowledgable advisor. He helped us understand the extent of several repairs and ultimately saved us a huge headache. We appreciated his honesty and his time. We look forward to contracting him for future needs.

Dave is the most knowledgeable contractor! He came by to help us diagnose a leak in our ceiling and ended up also helping with a random clicking outlet and bathroom exhaust fan. He is a jack of all trades and couldnt be nicer. I highly recommend him!

Dave successfully diagnosed a complicated water leak. And managed a number of roof repairs. We greatly appreciate his expertise and excellent customer service. We’ll definitely call him again when we need assistance.

Something Different Contracting did a wonderful job building a sunroom on the back of our house. We hired them because of Dave’s expertise, responsiveness, and transparency, and we appreciated that throughout the construction process. Our project manager Amilcar was on site quite often and was awesome to work with - always helpful and patient when questions or hiccups came up, and his crew was great as well. They were skilled, professional, and went the extra mile to ensure the air quality was as good as possible for our two little kids during construction.The work took longer than originally projected, between the supply chain and a couple weeks off on both sides due to illness etc., so we spent a lot of time together, but it went well and was all worth it! Thanks to design decisions made with the knowledge and experience from SDC the new room blends almost seamlessly with our old 1920s house, more than we ever thought possible. We’re so happy with it and are glad we chose SDC.

Ive been a tenant of Daves for years now and could not be happier with him as a landlord. Since moving in Dave has always been very responsive and, while theres been little maintenance Ive needed since the home is in such great shape, whenever there is he handles it immediately. Ive heard absolute horror stories from friends about their experiences with their landlords in DC and Im so appreciative to Dave and his professionalism. He truly cares about his tenants and its evident.In terms of his Something Different Contracting, Ive heard such amazing things from friends on Capitol Hill about his work!!Overall, Dave and his business are extremely trustworthy and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend him & Something Different to anyone in the DMV.

We had a great experience with Dave and his crew and have a beautiful home that was delivered on time even during the COVID pandemic.

We used Dave for a gut and replace kitchen renovation on Cap Hill. Dave was amazing to work with. He offered advice when we were uncertain and also when we were making questionable decisions. He diplomatically nudged us in the right direction. All work was completed within the schedule and to the highest levels of craftsmanship. We were so pleased with his work (and value) we used Something Different Contracting for a gut and rebuild efficiency project. The result was spectacular and ultimately gained recognition in architectural publications. This could not have been achieved without the attention to detail by Dave (and his talented crew).

Dave and his team did an amazing job renovating our basement. They delivered the project within a week of the contract time, but that delay was due to our choice of flooring not being available yet. I can’t say enough about the quality, the competitive pricing, the ease of working with them, and the professionalism. We will definitely be contacting them for future projects.

David and his company were great. I hired Something Different to do some repairs on the house, and he was professional, well priced, and the quality of work was really good. His employees were on time and did a good job cleaning up afterwards. Overall very happy with the experience!

I hired Something Different Contracting to install a ducted AC system for the second floor of my rowhouse. The project was done on time and at budget. Daves crew was very clean and professional. Would recommend.

Done a big job with the guys, and cannot be happier. I was always informed of the progress on the job, my interests were the top priority and all issues were resolved promptly and professionally. Not cheap, but worth the money. Would recommend to anyone looking for a high-quality contractor.

Something Different has managed several projects for me, and is always professional and leaves the job site finished and clean. Attention to small details makes all the difference.
