I've used Oak Design and Construction numerous time over their 30 year history. David Brady, the owner, is an excellent guy. He knows his business, he has good creative input; is honest and provides quality people and workmanship. He won't be the cheapest bid, but you may not find better work, on-time and on budget. I always come back.
Description of Work: Oak removed some rotting fascia and old gutters in the rear portion of my house ... about 80 linear feet ...replaced all the fascia with Asik board, installed new high quality gutters, with a high quality gutter cover, re-ran my heat cables in my gutters.... primed and painted. They also replaced some rotting trim in about three locations around the house with Asik, primed and painted.

I've used Oak for several remodel/additions over the past 22 years. They are great. David Brady, the owner, is attentive, creative, fun and professional. He's just fabulous to work with. The crews are friendly, knowledgeable and respnosible. Great work. Clean work sites. Nice designs. Not cheap however, but worth it. I generally won't use anyone else.
Description of Work: My family room and eat-in kitchen area needed remodeling. We removed old carpeting/media center/lighting...emptied the room....but not a gut job. For $9500 (part of the 30K) Oak designed and bulit a new built-in media wall (approx 123" L). This unit extended to the ceiling with crown molding. they had to re-work a return duct into a toe-kick return. They also installed new low voltage track lights and redesigned the electric service to the room. They put in new crown molding and base trim thruout both rooms to better match the elegant trim of the rest of the house. They prepped the 2 rooms for new paint and floor, repairing sub floor where needed, etc. Many other items included in this remodel

EVERYONE WAS VERY PROFESSIONAL AND RESPONSIVE. HOWEVER, WHEN THE COMPANY REPRESENTATIVE CAME, HE WAS VERY ARROGANT ALMOST TO THE POINT OF RUDENESS. HE DIDN'T SEEM INTERESTED IN HEARING WHAT WE WANTED DONE TO OUR HOUSE, BUT JUST STARTED TELLING US WHAT THEY WOULD DO, I.E. WE ONLY WORK WITH GRANITE COUNTERTOPS AND MAPLE CABINETS IN THE KITCHEN. HE SAID THEY WOULD ONLY CONSIDER KITCHEN REMODELS OF AT LEAST $100,000. WHEN WE SAID WE WERE PLANNING ON SPENDING $200,000 ON THE ENTIRE PROJECT, HE BECAME MUCH NICER AND SAID MAYBE THEY COULD STOOP TO PUTTING IN A $75,000 KITCHEN. I GOT A VERY BAD IMPRESSION OF A VERY 'ARROGANT' COMPANY. THEY DIDN'T SEEM INTERESTED IN ANY JOBS UNDER $100,000.
Description of Work: WE SET UP AN APPOINTMENT TO DISCUSS EXTENSIVE REMODELING OF OUR HOUSE.

Description of Work: GREAT JOB, DEFINITELY RECOMMEND THEM AND USE THEM AGAIN. DAVE CAME TO MY HOME TO TAKE PICTURES OF THE ROOMS THAT NEEDED WORK AND THEN PROVIDED A DETAILED ESTIMATE BEFORE WORK BEGAN. ALL OF THE WORKMEN WERE PROMPT AND COURTEOUS. SOME OF THE PAINTING THAT NEEDED TO BE DONE INCLUDED MATCHING CUSTOM PAINT, WHICH THE PAINTER DID FLAWLESSLY. THE DRYWALL WORK WAS ALSO SEAMLESS AND EXPERTLY FINISHED. ALL THE WORK WAS COMPLETED ON TIME (HAD TO WORK WITH MY ELECTRICIAN TO COORDINATE THE TIMING). NOT CHEAP, BUT WORTH EVERY PENNY.
