Carey Bros. has completed remodeling and repair projects on our home since 1995. They do excellent work and I recommend this company highly.

My project was complex for its size, and it wasn't easy to find contractors to bid on it. Carey Brothers handled it with ease. They dealt with my insurance company, hired consultants, managed sub-contractors, and interpreted my preferences with an apparent effortlessness that only experienced, attentive, high caliber professionals could. In the end, they delivered great results, excellent value, and, more importantly for a homeowner who expects to be around for several more decades, peace of mind from knowing that the job was done right.

Additional Comments - We had the pleasure of working with James and Morris Carey for a major renovation of our back yard. From the very beginning, they were very personable and made us feel comfortable. They are knowledgeable, trustworthy, accommodating, reliable, and very creative. One of the many positive things we noticed right away was that no matter how chaotic our yard looked while they were here, they would clean up and put tools away in the evening before they left. We had several conversations and they would listen carefully. We realized that because whatever design they presented to us always contained our personal preferences. They gave us options and have a network of professionals they can recommend for special projects. By the middle of our project, we were practically finishing each other’s sentences. Whenever we spend time in our new backyard, we feel like we are on vacation somewhere special and our conversation always includes our appreciation for them and their creativeness. We have other projects in mind and plan to call them when we are ready to proceed. Vic & Irene Gonzales

Carey Bros are very ethical, and we have been pleased with their work. They back up their work with a 5 year warranty. They will repair things at cost. We are glad to recommend them to other people who are thinking of remodeling their homes.
