Craftsman. Great work refurbishing our stairs and installing flooring at a fair price (and an author to boot!). Thanks Kevin!

Kevin began work for me and did an amazing job hearing my vision, my limitations and working around my schedule to do awesome work bringing life back into our home space. He’s not just an impeccable and professional worker he goes above and beyond as an individual. He provides honest feedback and gets the job done better than you could imagine. His attention to detail, cleanliness and learning about what you are working towards makes the experience a level above. I’ve already booked him for more work and highly recommend him for any projects! Thanks, Kevin!!

Over a period of several months, Kevin and Sam completed several projects at my home, including a kitchen renovation and multiple bathroom remodeling's. Their professionalism was of the highest caliber, as evidence in their communications, ingenuity, and dependability. They thoughtfully planned and executed all of their work, delivering exceptional carpentry, electrical, plumbing, tiling, and painting services. They were very competitive in their fee structure. I look forward to the opportunity to work with them again, and highly recommend them to others in the market for those services.

We did a major gut-remodel of our home and Kevin worked on various carpentry projects including installing kitchen cabinets, custom trim work, building a custom mantel and window seat. He was always reliable, courteous and did a job thoroughly and completely to our satisfaction before moving on to the next thing. I would highly recommend him.

I cannot say enough good things about Kevin and the beautiful work he has done in my home. My home was outdated with original bathroom and kitchen from the 80’s and in need of many repairs. Kevin remodeled and refurbished the first floor which included painting, new exterior doors, installing new floor and wall tile in the kitchen and bath, installing a new counter top and sink and repainting my kitchen cabinets. It all looks awesome. But it is not just Kevin’s work that has me highly recommending him. He is just a great person to work with. I didn’t know where to start and Kevin gave me confidence in my decisions and feedback when I needed it. He has the patience of a saint, trust me. His attention to detail goes beyond most and his timeliness in finishing the job was right on schedule. If you are looking for someone that can do it all, Kevin is the person to contact. Donna Z.
