I think that Abe and Anthony are very knowledgeable in their profession. The follow-up is outstanding along with the quality of work that they do.
I would like to recognize the exceptional service that Anthony, the installer for my project, provided.
Good worksmanship and control of the job.
They were very professional and they kept us abreast of materials and were very easy to work with, even while the whole situation wasn't anything we were excited about due to the fact it was fire damage and they made the process as easy as it could be.
Abe Degnan returned every email and phone call within hours. He also listened with real skill. I really felt heard regarding my needs and wants in our big project. He answered every question thoroughly and clearly. He really cared that the job was done well, on time and to my and my husbands satisfaction. I highly recommend him without reservation,
We couldn't be more pleased with Degnan Design Builders. Our project was completed on time and on budget despite unexpected hindrances. We knew what was going on every step of the way and there were no surprises or hidden costs. DDB helped walk us through every step of the project, answering questions and educating us in areas where we lack knowledge. They spoiled us with clear communication, outstanding service and unparalleled quality.
Two areas are tied for most satisfied: first, Abe is great at communicating and making sure his customers understand every step of the process; second, Anthony is the most professional, courteous craftsman we've ever encountered. Both are the top of their field.
Abe and Anthony are outstanding at their respective positions. We have complete confidence in their skill, ability and professionalism.
I would like to recognize Anthony for his exceptional service.
Re: Remodeling or repairs to other's less than perfect work: I am very particular. I have high expectations and they always deliver. They make a careful assessment of the situation, take pains to explain it in detail and provide options for remediation before proceeding.
I felt that they were very professional and gave us good advise and assistance prior to the projects. Then they did a sterling job of executing the work, and they followed up by explaining the work and asking if we were satisfied with the work. There were no annoying delays or excuses. They quickly responded to an unforeseen problem that we discovered. They get all pluses and no minuses in my book.
I trust their judgement. Cheryl and Anthony were friendly, courteous, and helpful when I had questions.
Degnan Design Builders was organized, communicative and fair. The completed job was better than my high expectations. I would certainly use there service again and highly recommend them.
I expected the experience to be exactly as it unfolded .... easy.
We always get excellant quality work and Degnan Design Builders stand behind their work.
Abe is easy to get in contact with, listens to our needs, and provides timely answers and information.Anthony is polite and respectfully when he does work in our home.Both Abe and Anthony come up with innovative solutions.
Abe Degnan and associates were very easy to work with on every stage, from beginning discussions & planning (where well drafted illustrations helped 'see' the project), thorough review of material choices, inspections demands & licensing needed, and time frames with cost limitations. The work was done as promised and on time.
The work was all very well done and on time, and the communications were clear and open to explanation or suggestions for changes.
No problems, any issues were addressed and corrected.
Both Abe, & Anthony are very easy to work with, but the subcontractors also were quite approachable and did excellent work.
The entire job was very well done and on time.
Initially I intended to build the deck myself. I am so glad that I chose Degnan Design Builders. Anthony, the carpenter, addressed details that I never would have noticed. My deck is beautiful and I am glad I left the work to a true craftsman.
The quality of the work. Even our little project received great attention to the details.
Anthony, the carpenter, is a true craftsman. It was amazing to watch him work. His knowledge and skill quickly put aside any ideas I had about doing this project myself.
I had concerns about the project itself because it was due to shortfalls from a previous builder. It was an unknown. They addressed my concerns by being very direct and explaining everything that needed to be done.
I was most satisfied in that they took time to explain what they were doing and why the did what they did. They were efficient in making sure the important decisions were made.
They didn't fall short in any area.
In my entire life, they have been the best contractor that I have ever dealt with and I have a lot of rental property.
They are all business, they are honest and you can expect that what they tell you will happen will happen. I enjoyed dealing with them and I liked the way they communicated with me.
I liked their communication with me.

Homebuilders, remodelers, real estate developers and home services companies pay GuildQuality for customer surveying and performance reporting. We refer to these companies as GuildQuality Members, Guildmembers, or members.
Our service helps Guildmembers monitor customer satisfaction and -- if they choose to publish survey feedback on our public website at guildquality.com -- articulate the quality of their service for prospective customers.
All of the Guildmember information we publish at guildquality.com has been provided to us either by the member (such as pictures of work and biographical information) or by their customers via one of our surveys (customer comments, performance summaries, and reviews).
All of the customer feedback that we publish is derived from the customers we survey. Our Guildmembers provide us with their customers' contact information, we conduct the surveys, they receive the feedback, and -- if they have chosen to make their feedback public -- the member's performance report is automatically updated to reflect the response. Members may choose to publish a summary of either all of their feedback or their most recent twelve months of feedback.
In addition to average performance ratings and survey statistics, GuildQuality also publishes two types of customer commentary: Comments and Reviews.
A comment has been provided by a survey respondent in response to any one of the survey questions we ask, and a member may or may not choose to publish it. Often customers provide unsolicited testimonials or compliments, and members can choose to share these comments in their published performance report.
Many Guildmembers choose to participate in our formal review process. These members have added an additional question on their survey: "If you'd like to provide a public review of your experience working with the Guildmember, please share it here." In contrast to comments, which a member selects to have published, we publish all reviews, provided they are at least 30 words long. With each review, we include a one to five star rating provided by the survey respondent.
It is important to note that GuildQuality does not endorse the qualifications of any company. We make no predictions, warranties or guarantees, expressed or implied, about the quality of any work a company on this website may provide. GuildQuality does not accept any liability whatsoever for any harm that might result from any statements presented on this website.
Prospective customers should weigh a multitude of factors when choosing the right building company, and never depend on a single source when making their decision to purchase a home or hire a contractor.
