Just getting started with renovating this house. Stephen and his crew have installed LED can lights and removed fixtures from the master bath. They did a great job, were a great value, and were easy to work with. I’ll be contacting him again as new projects arise.

Details: Home • 3 rooms • Walls • 10 - 14 feet (high ceiling) • Repainting, with a color change • Fair - minor holes and scratches • Homeowner or property manager • No, this is not new construction • No, I will move things out of the way myself
