We contracted John to build an addition onto our year-old house and to build a new detached garageThe work included three separate excavations and foundations and also included gutting and renovating an old kitchenPrior to bringing John onboard, we worked with an architect to design all of the new construction and renovated spaceOur architect had worked with John a number of times before so we thought we'd give him a shot at our job
John was easy to work withHis quote was detailed and allowed for us to make changes to better fit our budgetHe was helpful with questions we had, like which materials were included and which we had to be responsible for (e.gelectrical, plumbing, insulation)Once we signed the paperwork, John quickly got things moving with the building permit and lining up subs, e.gmasons, and material deliveries
Throughout the project, there was steady progress nearly every dayWe were never left wondering if someone was going to show up or notJohn was good about communicating schedule updatesHe brought in a helper when there was heavy work to do, like framing or installing windows and doorsOther times he worked solo, such as when doing interior trim workHe brought in subs (masons, roofers, drywallers) when it made sense to do soHe also handled a lot of the coordination of trades we were responsible for arranging, such as the sprayfoamersHe kept the work site clean and picked up at the end of each work day
It was a pleasure to see the detail in the work John did, particularly in two respectsFirst, he was very precise and paid close attention to dimensional accuracyThings were square and plumb, and the fit of components like doors, windows, and especially trim work, were exceptionalSecondly, he built things strong! Where the building plans left room for interpretation, and where weird situations revealed themselves (not uncommon when marrying new construction to really old houses), John developed solutions that were clearly never going to fail and would last a lifetimeIt was apparent that his approach to work was to build in quality and not take shortcuts that could compromise the end result for the customer
The lasting impression we have from working with John is he does very high quality workHe is straightforward to work with and he works very hardHe doesn't do things on the cheap and you get what you pay for with himHe's reliable and a pleasure to work withWe recommend him highly
John was recommended by a friend to remodel my kitchen and I was not disappointedHis expertise and work ethics are outstandingThe kitchen came out exactly how I wanted and highly recommend John
