Testimonials
“One of the most notable projects we’ve worked together on was a $3.2 million siding project encompassing 25 buildings in the Winter Springs area. I can confidently say that DBSS was exceptional in their service and expertise throughout this project. Their comprehensive approach began with a thorough inspection, which was instrumental in identifying the specific needs and challenges of our community.
Following the inspection, DBSS created a detailed scope of work for our vendor and went on to prepare the necessary engineering plans required by the county. Their meticulous attention to detail and understanding of our project’s unique requirements were evident in every aspect of their work.
I would also like to highlight the exceptional professionalism and support provided by Scott Santomauro, the President, and Danielle Paquette, the Director of Operations, at DBSS. Both were consistently available, ensuring timely delivery of their work and readily assisting with any inquiries from our Board of Directors and the vendor responsible for carrying out the work. Their availability and willingness to engage with all stakeholders involved played a significant role in the smooth execution and success of the project.
Based on our experiences, DBSS has proven to be a reliable and highly skilled engineering firm, capable of handling large-scale projects with efficiency and expertise. Their dedication to meeting deadlines and providing ongoing support throughout the project was invaluable to us.”

“I can’t say enough good things about Scott and DBSS Engineering. I was in a really tough position after trusting someone who claimed they were licensed to complete certain work—but in reality, they weren’t. It put my entire project at risk and left me dealing with a mess I didn’t know how to fix.
Scott stepped in and completely turned things around. He helped me secure my building permits, got everything back on track, and truly took ownership of the situation. What stood out the most was how hard he fought for my project—spending countless hours going back and forth with the city to make sure things kept moving forward.
If you’re looking for someone who is knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely has your back, Scott is the person you want on your team. I’m incredibly grateful for everything he did to help me get through a stressful situation and bring my project to completion.”
