What is this?What is this?
We display two types of written homeowner feedback on GuildQuality member profile pages: Comments and Reviews.
Comments
In response to our customer satisfaction surveys, homeowners share lots of comments about construction quality, communication, or any other question asked in the survey. Guildmembers can selectively publish these comments here on their profile page.
Reviews
Reviews are different than comments. These are star ratings that homeowners ask us to publish, and they come with a written description of the type of experience they had working with their contractor. We publish all of the reviews we receive: positive and negative alike.

Without hesitation, I recommend Houseworks Unlimited to perform high-quality work. Our home was architect-designed and built and featured in a magazine previously; Craig and his team provided the level of thoroughness and quality we value. The craftsmanship is excellent, and the work is done on schedule.

Craig was a consummate professional throughout our project. He really gave us the feeling our house was in good hands and the project would be done the right way, the first time. Craig and his crew exceeded our expectations and did an outstanding job.

Houseworks Unlimited handled the whole process from the design concept to the final completion, which was very good. It was the best experience I have ever had with home building or home remodeling.

We're glad you had a good experience. All the planning and preparation took some time, but it's worth it in the end. Older homes always create a challenge and this one was no exception. Even with some hidden surprises, we still got it done. We hope you get many years of enjoyment out of it!

Craig Knott (Houseworks Unlimited) has done work for us for years, including, among other things, a bathroom remodel, conversion of a screened-in porch to a sunroom, and now our latest project - a kitchen remodel. We needed to stay within a certain budget, and Craig worked with us on that by providing...

Houseworks has completed several projects on our 105 year old house. Craig's expertise and knowledge of every facet of home building was invaluable.

Thanks for the pat on the back! After doing this for over 30 years, I have learned a thing or two about working on older homes. It's a shame more of these entry level carpenters aren't trained in the some of the basics that were used 100 years ago. We find, way to often, that fine craftsmanship isn't repaired and it just removed. In it's place is another production piece. Thanks for allowing us to do it right and save a piece of history!

What type of fence are you leaning toward? Once you get into the larger fences, they are typically 4 or 3 board style horse fences.
