Angi5Overall the project went very well. We had a tight timeline of 6.5 weeks to complete the entire project (while my wife and kids were away on vacation visiting her parents). We were able to complete the project in that timeline aside from a few minor punchlist items. The sub-contractors Brian used were great and responsive as well. Unfortunately there were a number of unexpected surprises uncovered along the way that led to cost overruns but overall we are glad the project was completed. I have and would recommend Brian and his crew to others. Services Rendered: Oversee a 2nd floor addition for the creation of a master suite, which added a bathroom and bigger closet to the existing space.

Angi5Brian and I spent time discussing the design of the new addition. We both wanted the addition to blend in with the original shed's post-and-beam construction and country barn look. He came up with great ideas on how to do that and how to get the roof line to match with the original shed's very high and steep roof. He also listened to my ideas and concerns. I love the design that he came up with and the final result looks great! He also did a great job dealing with the town about getting a permit which was not an easy task. Brian is great to work with because he is very professional, listens to your questions and concerns, and is always willing to find an answer to any question or problem. He is also very smart and organized which made the project go smoothly. During the construction, he always let me know what would be happening and always cleaned up at the end of the day. His crew was also very professional and considerate. I also liked that Brian always returned my phone calls and emails very quickly. The end result is that I got exactly what I wanted -- it blends in well with the prior shed's post and beam construction, still has that country barn look, fits my car, and has a lot of storage space. Services Rendered: Originally, I had a small detached shed in which my car could barely fit. I wanted to have an addition built to convert the shed into a standard-sized garage with additional storage. They designed and built the 8-foot addition and made additional changes that I requested. The original shed had post-and-beam construction and they designed and built it in that style. While adding the addition, they enlarged the original garage door opening, replaced the garage door, moved two windows, and added a new side door. They also brought electricity out, added interior and exterior lights, and an automatic garage door and opener. They finished the garage with matching roof shingles, matching cider shingles for siding, and painted all the trim. They also arranged for a mason to add a brick step to the side door and a brick pathway from the side door to the back door of the house.
