64 Butch and his crew again went above and beyond expectations. This is the second project we have hired Free Lance Carpentry for and we couldn't be happier. Butch was able to schedule this last-minute project around our schedules and our last minute changes were not a problem. Butch is...
The work got off to a slow start and took longer than expected (almost a week). The start dates and times of various pieces of the job (power-washing, carpentry, painting) never occurred in the time-frames we were given. When the painters and carpenters did get to work, they worked hard and...

I've used this contractor for several jobs. He's extremely easy to work with. While some contractors will do whatever you want (right or wrong), this one will explain why it might be best not to do certain things that are just not worth the extra cost. I've found over the years of using...

"We needed some drywall work done and H Drywall was one of three companies I contacted for estimates. They were the middle bidder, but I was so impressed with Harry’s (the”H” in H Drywall) on-site visit and his comprehensive proposal that I decided to go with them. I was not disappointed because Harry keeps on top of things and is quick to reply to messages. A bonus was their online payment system which is really convenient and provided instant confirmation of a payment. What truly makes this company worthy of a 5-star rating though are its employees. John, the foreman, is easy to talk to and has so much experience in construction that he solved any problems or challenges that occurred. He always kept us informed of their progress and made sure we were happy with the work they were doing. The rest of the crew Stuart, Derek, Chris, and Evan were all friendly, courteous (always aware that we still lived in the home), and did excellent work. Drywall replacement is messy, but these guys covered everything including the floors and they vacumed daily. The drywall removal uncovered some additional work that needed to be done and H Drywall provided a reasonable estimate to fix the problem. We also had them paint the living room, dining room, and kitchen areas. Thank you Evan for helping us choose the right color! This company, and I mean the whole company, definitely deserves a 5-star rating."

"Mitch and his team had done a fantastic job on my mom's kitchen so I knew I had to have them do my master bathroom. Mitch brought some great ideas on how we can make our stand up shower bigger (I would have never thought of that), then Rob and Josh and the rest of the team got to work. Everything from picking out exactly what materials we wanted to making sure everything looked perfect at the end - the overall experience was actually pleasant. We've done renovations before that sometimes would get stressful but this team was a pleasure to work with. Highly recommend them for your projects."
