"I was very impressed with David's responsiveness and every member of his crew was a pleasure. They completely removed the kitchen floor (and several layers of subfloor) in my 100+ year-old home, made repairs to floor joists and installed new flooring that looks beautiful. It was an evolving project and I appreciated the team's flexibility and speed with which they completed the project."
"Laura is very personable and gets the job done in an efficient manner. She did a professional drawing/ layout for a building permit for my house in Bridgeport,CT. There were not any discrepancies. And she has reasonable prices!😀 Very satisfied customer! Thank you Laura"
"Roger is a gentleman and a professional of the highest caliber. My wife and I are building a home in North Stonington, CT and hired a virtual architect 2 years ago to design our home. After $5,000, and 3 months, we were left with what felt like an intern-level deliverable. We swore that the next time we used professional services, we would find someone who had experience in the industry, knowledge of the area, and the passion for building a young families dream home, not just processing work. We found all of those things in Roger and could not be happier with his work or his kindness as a person. I am now in the budgeting phase and am sending out Rogers drawings for contractors to quote, and the first thing every one of them says is I have not heard of this Greenwald guy but he does damn good work. It inspires my wife and I to know that we were in such capable hands."
"I hired them to create plans for an apartment building. The process was quick and painless. Cost was good. The plans are full complete abd ready to take to builders for quotes. I will definitly use them again."
"Cardinal Design was amazing! Not only do they have a tremendous man experience. They also have vision and creativity. Our home is now exactly the way we want it to be."
"The folks at Daddona were very professional and excellent to work with. My wife and I were very satisfied with the job they did. The basic build was actually completed a bit ahead of schedule and any minor issues thereafter were taken care of without a problem. I would certainly use them again and would be happy to recommend them to anyone else that has a need for the services they offer. Stan and Dawn"
