We're a team of licensed contractors based in Texas. Our founder David has 12 years of experience in the trades, working long summer days installing and repairing systems for some of the largest companies in Dallas. We've worked across HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and other trades – so we know the home services industry inside and out.
We built AskDave to empower homeowners to make informed decisions. The goal is simple: solve problems, keep your home comfortable, and make sure your home projects are handled by qualified professionals.
Whether you want to DIY the fix yourself or need a licensed pro, Dave helps you through the whole process. Completely free. No signup, no hidden costs.
"An educated homeowner is a protected homeowner."
Generic AI pulls from the entire internet – forums, outdated articles, and random advice. Dave is different. He's trained on real-world field experience: what actually breaks, what it really costs, and what questions to ask before making decisions.
ChatGPT might give you a textbook answer. Dave gives you what a good tech would tell you over a beer – the stuff that usually stays inside the industry.
Contractors don't always have the best reputation. Trust is hard to earn, and homeowners often feel like they're walking into every service call blind. We wanted to change that.
Our approach: provide overwhelming value upfront without asking for anything in return. Most contractors are honest, hardworking professionals – but an educated homeowner can spot the difference. That's why Dave exists.
The same diagnostic process a good tech would use, step by step.
Know what repairs should cost so you can recognize a fair quote.
If Dave can't fix it, he knows someone who can. We'll connect you with a vetted pro.
The more questions homeowners ask, the smarter Dave gets.
Dave started with HVAC, but we're building the go-to resource for every home service. We interview top contractors across the country and train Dave on their decades of field experience.
