Some real issues we had to work through. Phil and the crew wainscoted our entryway and dining room beautifully, and they called the night before to confirm. Hopefully our experience was an outlier.

Great experience with one tiny nitpick. Phil and they built a banquette in our breakfast nook with hidden storage.

Couldn't be happier with how this turned out. Phil and they designed and built a new deck with hidden fasteners and a privacy screen.

Wanted to like them more than we did. Phil and the crew added crown molding through the entire main floor and the miters are perfect, and they took the time to answer every question we had. We'd think twice before calling them again.

Great experience with one tiny nitpick. Phil trimmed out three new interior doors with stained oak that matches the originals, and the whole crew showed up exactly when they said they would. They also picked up after themselves every single day, which we really appreciated. Glad we picked them.

Genuinely good work and good people. Phil and they made custom built-ins for our laundry room, and they explained everything in plain English without talking down to us. Glad we picked them.

All in all a great experience. Phil made custom built-ins for our laundry room, and the whole crew wore booties in the house without being asked. They also took the time to answer every question we had, which we really appreciated. Highly recommend with one minor caveat — but no big deal.

Could not ask for better. Phil and they designed and built a new deck with hidden fasteners and a privacy screen, and they called the night before to confirm. Will be using them for everything from now on.
