Charles Holz

Matt was very instrumental in the building of my home. He did the design work, general contractor lining up all of the subcontractors. He did all of the finish work and made sure all systems worked. He completed the project on time and on budget. I would highly recommend him and his crew for any building or repair projects.

Kristy Barzen

Master woodworker. He could make anything for our 1924 house. He brought us great ideas that we used. His work was done 25 years ago and still looks fabulous. I would not use anyone else.
