Tim did very good job from start to end. Got city approval on time with very reasonable price. Added some photo of my project. I am appreciating his team as well taking care of some area of cleaning around the house. I recommend this comoany for any demolishing services . Thanks Tim and his team Regards Mohan Singh
Timothy Drakeford of Direct Construction Services is, without question, the best contractor experience I’ve ever had. I found Timothy through a Google search, and he responded quickly — which mattered more than I realized at the time. This was my first demolition project, tied to a fire-damaged property, insurance issues, city requirements, and utility clearances. I had very little understanding of the process, and honestly, it was overwhelming. From the very beginning, Timothy put my mind at ease. He assured me that he understood the process, that he was familiar with how the City of Detroit works, and that he would handle everything — and he absolutely did. Every step of the way, he communicated clearly and patiently, by text and phone, keeping me informed and explaining what was happening next in a way I could actually understand. Whenever a snag came up — and there were several (none from Timothy)— Timothy didn’t disappear or deflect. He communicated, took ownership, and handled it. He was incredibly patient with my questions and never made me feel uninformed or rushed. He truly walked me through the entire process, start to finish. What impressed me most is that Timothy went above and beyond what I would ever expect from a contractor. He wasn’t just doing a demolition — he managed the process, coordinated with the city, handled approvals, and even waited until final city approval before sending the final invoice. He personally called me to explain everything, which speaks volumes about his integrity and professionalism. By the end of the project, I felt nothing but relief and gratitude. Timothy is truly a one-stop contractor — from explaining the process, to handling the details, to final approval. If you are dealing with a complicated situation, especially a fire-damaged property or city-regulated demolition, I would recommend Timothy Drakeford and Direct Construction Services without hesitation and without question. This is how contracting should be done. Roy McCloud

A Truly Exceptional Experience – A Blessing to Work With! Working with Direct Construction Services, LLC has been an absolute blessing during one of the most overwhelming experiences we’ve ever faced. After our fire, we didn’t even know where to begin—and finding Direct Construction Services felt like the answer to a prayer. From day one, they stepped in with confidence, clarity, and genuine care, guiding us through every detail of the demolition process. What impressed us most was their expertise in navigating the complicated maze of city regulations, zoning rules, permits, and the entire fire insurance withholding/escrow process. These are areas that can easily become confusing and stressful, but their team—especially Tim—made everything understandable, manageable, and seamless. They handled every requirement with precision, ensuring everything was done correctly and on time. A heartfelt thank-you goes to Tim, who was nothing short of exceptional. His professionalism and customer service were truly top-tier. He consistently kept us informed, answered every question (and we had plenty!), and responded quickly no matter how big or small the concern. His calm and pleasant demeanor made a difficult situation so much easier to navigate. We honestly could not have done any of this without him. Direct Construction Services delivered exactly what they promised: steadfast commitment, thorough communication, expert guidance, and a reliable timeline. They took what could have been a nightmare process and turned it into something organized, supported, and as stress-free as possible. We are deeply grateful for everything they did for us and highly recommend Direct Construction Services without hesitation to anyone in need of a trustworthy, knowledgeable, and compassionate partner through a demolition or reconstruction project. They truly go above and beyond. ---
I would highly recommend Direct Construction Services to anyone looking to have work done in the City of Detroit. Tim and his staff were great to work with from start to finish. They are very familiar with the city and all of their requirements/processes, and made our demo job easy for us. They offer very competitive pricing as well. I will never use another demo company again after working with Direct Construction Services

Made an emotional experience for me very easy and stress free!! Tore my house down in minutes and cleaned up well! I appreciate him and recommending to everyone! #BlackOwnedAndProfessional
