My husband and I recently hired Chris Woodsmith construction to renovate several aspects of our newly purchased home Right away Read More we clicked with Chris and felt at ease and confident hiring him He was great about providing a full cost estimate and really worked hard with us to come in line with our budget restrictions all while not compromising on quality Over the course of months he did a lot to the house including bathroom remodels Fireplace facade stairwell railing remodel refinishing all hardwood floors electrical work Built in cabinets etc There was a lot to be done on the house and no matter how big or small the job Chris and his team were professional and amazing I am a very design oriented person and was super happy that Chris was totally open to listening to all my ideas and truly turned this house into our dream home He was also really amazing at completing the job in a bit of a crunch when a family emergency put us a on a tight move in timeline We are so happy with how everything turned out - the house is now exactly what we were looking for
Woodsmith Construction was the sole contractor executing a project comprising of enclosing a walk out balcony effectively extending our kitchen Read More and equipping it with a dine-in space I did not extensively shop the project around as I was quite pleased with Woodsmith right away - I value the confidence I have in a contractor on par with the cost The contract was based on full cost disclosure hours receipts plus profit and I could help out with some things to keep the costs down If I had to isolate the one factor I was most impressed with Woodsmith it would be the quality of all workmen and trades In quality I mean professionalism punctuality skill and interpersonal skills the latter are often at a premium in the industry at least in my opinion The project moved along at a reasonable pace given the size and all aspect of the built framing exterior and interior work were done well and with the appropriate attention to detail In addition I can t recall one instance when I was not able to reach my contact at Woodsmith within minutes or less In terms of communication I can t say enough good things about the company and to me communication in a way equals confidence In summary I found the company to be dedicated and committed to all of their trades which in turn resulted in a successful project execution and an excellent end product

I have worked with many professionals in this industry over the last decade or so and have found few that Read More consistently deliver the same level of construction experience and expertise as Woodsmith It's one thing to talk a great story with the client it's another thing entirely to deliver a final product that is exceptionally high in quality and still on budget and on time A huge contributor to Woodsmith and their success is their relationships with their clients and their ability to communicate throughout the course of a project I think communication and clarity during a renovation goes a long way to calm a clients nerves and keep them in the loop during all stages of the project I would highly recommend anyone who maybe considering a renovation of any complexity to meet with Chris of Woodsmith and hear first hand what his company can do for you
