"He did everything he was hired to do - and then did so much more. His work was excellent - he arrived on time, was courteous, and left the area clean. We will hire him again for all our carpentry work. We will give his name to all our friends who might need a finish carpenter."

"Pine Top did a phenomenal work! Payton the owner was personable and very patient with our requests. We were very particular and he hit it out of the park. We used them for a larger rennovation project in our home and they made our vision come to life. Every detail was paid attention to and we are beyond happy with the finished product"

"I had R.U.S.S Custom Builds come out and do a framing job for me. First off, the customer service and overall interaction with me as a client was on point. We got together, figured everything out and got straight to work. Russ is a hard working man who will get the job done right and and do it to the best of his abilities. He treats his customers fairly and with respect. Highly recommend him to anyone looking to get an amazing, high quality job done!"
