Silva Enterprises

I too found Francisco in the Grapevine. I found him to be personable and professional. I had them replace a deck, remove and replace a patio (they dug out roots that had damaged previous patio), wired and hooked up our new spa. His crew was very efficient and did great work… I plan on using them again for the front yard.

If you hire this company you will be the manager of your own project. They will be needed to be supervised all the time. Quality is bad. prices are high. I could not get estimate 1 month from the owner Francisco Silva, but allowed them to start working. Stupid me!!! Whatever he promised in words, did not appear on the estimate. Estimates were changed several times. I paid $ 1,000 to start, The estimates disregarded this amount. As a result the prices went up, up, and up. He gave me receipts for materials for somebody else claiming they were mine. The work was not half done he demanded to pay off the whole estimate with the higher prices. He never came on time promising to come «tomorrow». Never answered telephone. Never ever hire him !!!

I found Francisco in The Grapevine Magazine. He was the first of three handymen/​contactors that I tried to work with from The Grapevine that didn’t seem to value new customers. I made an appointment the week before last for Francisco to come out this past Tuesday (date and time were his suggestion). After waiting an hour, I contact him asking if he was coming. I got a short message telling me he had a doctor’s appointment and someone would contact me. So unprofessional. That cost me time as I was/​am moving and had I known he couldn’t make it, I could’ve tried to get someone else.

Never on time with the excuses !!! Does not stick to the estimate. Prices are ridiculous compare to the job done. Always trying to give you receipts for all the miscellaneous hardware (nail, screws, dust masks) all the things which suppose to be included in the proposed estimate. In possession of a construction license but handyman quality job. All the job done by barely speaking Spanish persons with the low pay from Francisco. Just don’t Hire !!!

Run, don’t walk. Run. Never on time. Always on the way. Doesn’t take a phone call. Quality of work is poor. Does not coordinate well with support staff and cabinet maker.

Do not use this company, he wanted to charge me $ 550.00 to fix a leaking pipe, he said it would take 3 hours.
I called Henson Plumbing, they were very professional and it only took 45 minutes to fix the leaking pipe and charged me $ 105.00. Thank God for honest people.

It sounds like he does really good work, but I would not know. He promised to be at my house this Wednesday at 10:00. No show. I called him at 11:00. He was «on his way». I called him at 1:00. He was «on his way». Should be here by 3:00. I called at 3:30, and he was «on his way». I called him at 4:00 and told him not to bother. I’ll look for someone else. He hung up on me.
I waited for him for SIX hours. I could not leave the house, in case he showed up. I couldn’t do anything in the back yard, because I can’t hear the doorbell out there. For me, I wasted an ENTIRE day waiting, and waiting, and waiting. And no apology, he just hung up on me.
So if he does good work, what good is it if he doesn’t show up ???

I needed some drywall and sheet rock work done in my home. It was a small project but they did quality work and were efficient about it.
