"We called LAR Construction for a kitchen remodel project. After talking to several other contractors we decided to go with Lar Construction and are so happy with their work! I love my new kitchen! It was a pleasure to work with Sharon and his team - they were very responsive, professional and easy to work with. I highly recommend them!!"
"As a real estate agent - I am always looking for reliable vendors to help me with my client's needs. Trevor and his crew have always been professional and easy to work with. I have used them in my personal home as well. I highly recommend them for all of your construction needs!"
"The project went very smooth, the contractor was always prompt, showed a great work ethic, what pleasantly responsive to questions about the work being done. The personnel with Built Different was always personable and respectful which made me feel very comfortable having them in my home. They showed up did their work communicated as need. The contractor went above and beyond coordinating with other contractors providing access to the property when I could not be available and receptive to add on request. Most impressively the project was finished within the agreed upon time. I will definitely use them in the future as needs arrive."

"Best contractor experience I have ever had! Steve worked with my insurance company from start to finish. He was professional at all times and did the job right and on time."
Company was right on time; showed up with 2 workmen. They worked really fast, splitting up the jobs. Originally I only was going to have 3 jobs completed, but they finished those so quickly I added a fourth (I was lucky and glad I had an extra job ready; it was one I was going to do myself). Even with that, the workers were finished within about 45 minutes.
All the jobs were completed perfectly, with the exception of one. I had told the worker that I wanted the new shower head installed because the old one was leaking. When he installed the new one, it still leaked. So, I had to hire another contractor to fix that. Technically, he did exactly what I asked, but I did mark down one grade on quality because it didn't fix the problem, which I had told him about.
The workers cleaned up everything pretty well.
If you use the company, make sure you have every part, even the smallest washers, nuts, and bolts, for the job before the workers start. As far as I know they carry no parts at all, only tools.
"Excellently. Paul was very professional and considerate. I was renovating my home while out of town- his dedication to ensuring that I was satisfied with material was second to none. His staff was amazing and professional. They arrived at the agreed time and completed the project on time. The staining of the hardwood on the stairs was superbly done and coordinated with the laminate throughout the home beautifully. I look forward to using this contractor again for future projects."
