This is the third time we've hired DAL Builders. They previously rebuilt our front porch and gut rehabbed our kitchen. We highly recommend them for the quality of their construction work, project management and working relationship with clients. We have come to trust DAL with our old 1910 house, which presents unique, often confounding (at least to us), challenges. DAL does quality work while advising us about what needs replacing/rebuilding and what doesn't. For example, our basement had decent framing, so we kept it, which was a huge savings. We have a good working relationship with Tim Larkin, our project manager at DAL. If there's a problem during a project, we trust that we can work through it. Still, it always helps to be flexible and take responsibility for communication. We experienced some pandemic-related delays. Start dates can be a little unclear (they depend on the progress of other DAL projects), but once started, Tim moves the work along. Regarding cost, we could pay less for work of lower quality, which we would regret, and I'm sure we could pay a lot more for work of similar quality. Tim is sensitive to cost issues and advises on how to keep costs down. Overall, the value is excellent, and we've been happy with the results. DAL's carpentry work has been outstanding -- our front porch and back stairs are beautiful, and our neighbor still raves about the plumb lines in our kitchen. Our newly rehabbed basement is fantastic; with Tim’s encouragement, we exposed three windows that had been covered up, including two under a porch/bay window. They let in a lot of light and are very attractive! Project management is strong overall. We appreciate the detailed estimates DAL provides. DAL will deliver on those details so be sure the estimates specify what you want. We've gotten to know DAL's subcontractors -- plumber, electrician, drywallers & painters, roofers, etc. They are all very good at what they do. Fostering good communication with this only helps. We really like working with Tim Larkin. He gives us good ideas, is responsive to problems, and is flexible around the needs of the project, which can change. He’ll keep the project on track, manage the subcontractors, etc. I try to keep track of and communicate about details with Tim -- this helps when a project is extensive or has multiple parts, as this most recent one did. It takes a team to pull everything off!

There were delays in getting materials due to COVID but once all materials were here the job was scheduled and finished within the promised time frame. DAL Builders did an excellent job and we love our new deck.

Project manager Tim and crew did an outstanding job replacing my front and rear porches and actually exceeded my expectations. The crew arrived at the worksite on time each day and left the worksite clean. I will definitely choose DAL Builders for my future construction needs.

Tim was excellent to work with. Always on time and returned all my calls in a timely manner. He is very knowledgeable and gave me great tips. He provided me with 3 price options in writing which allowed me to select the one that best fit my budget. The crew that came to work on my front porch were professional and always cleaned up after themselves, They left my front yard looking spotless at the end of each work day. The work done was professional and they paid attention to details. I received many compliments from my neighbors. I will definitely hire them again,

Outstanding. They anticipated it would take 2 days, but completed it in 1. This is the third project that I've used DAL for and I've been thrilled with their work each time. Highly professional.

DAL Builders did a great job! Tim was extremely conscientious and kept us advised of progress throughout. The workers were friendly and the workmanship was great. 2020 was a tricky year to get a project completed, but DAL pulled it off. Very happy with the results.

This was my third time having DAL out for an estimate/project. I knew that they would come through when others would not or could not. I needed to replace a balcony floor (situated over an interior roof) for a real estate sale when time and quality were of the essence. Tim is a great project manager and straight shooter. Pricing was competitive, work was excellent, and scheduling on short notice was a promise kept. These guys are reliable pros - you get what you pay for and more.
