Recognized Excellence

Recognized Excellence - Lead Carpenter Richard Wright. He had the professional knowledge and experience to effectively explain issues and options to the homeowners. He did a great job in managing the project. Plus he had the right temperament to deal with one subcontractor who had upset the homeowner. In the end, Richard helped all parties worked through the issues and satisfactorily address build issues. Dawn Summers also has a keen sense of design and helped the homeowners tremendously.
