Get matched with top sunroom and patio pros in Wakarusa, IN

"Homeowner here... I can't properly explain how absolutely thrilled we are with the work that Bronson and the Brawny Builders have done with our lake cottage. Last summer, we started with a plan to simply paint the exterior. But the project slowly unfolded into something much larger. Bronson is not just a general contractor - he became a close and trusted partner throughout the entire project. He is full of creative and thoughtful ideas that enhanced the project at every step. He provided us with constant and detailed communication. His team worked with us to make sure that every detail was right. Here are a couple of examples where Bronson was able to improve the design or save cost: ** We did not want to expand the footprint of the house and add that cost, but we could not figure out how to layout everything we wanted. Bronson cleverly reused an old set of concrete stairs as the foundation for a washer/dryer stack. It was a great solution that worked out fantastic. ** We had wanted to add a half bath for years, but Bronson figured out a way to add a FULL bath. In addition, the new bathroom was connected (jack and jill style) to the main bedroom to create a master suite. It only cost one additional door, but it is now WAY beyond what we imagined. ** We originally wanted to build a deck on the front of the house, but Bronson helped to create a design for a covered porch with vaulted ceilings and a clever lower surround that blended with the lake environment. ** We found a number of structural issues with the old house during demolition. Bronson developed very clever and cost-effective ways to resolve floor, wall and joist issues. ** During each phase of the construction, Bronson developed thoughtful and clever touches. The lofted garage included an old second floor door for ventilation, and Bronson designed a design the new door that retained some of the prior feeling with a new and fresh update. ** We wanted to retain some of the historical feel to the interior, and Bronson cleverly retained some of the original paneling without feeling overwhelming. He framed the wall to make it a focal point without looking old. It is one of my favorite parts of the house. The lake cottage has been in our extended family for almost 50 years. It has been a great retreat for us, but it is now a proper home with personality and functionality to match. This project has literally transformed the house. We would highly recommend Bronson and Brawny Builders for any remodeling project. We were lucky to find them."

"I had a roof leak around our chimney which was attempted to be resolved by several roofing companies with no resolution. Exterior Arts, LLC provided a quote, selected a date for the repair, and promptly finished it. The water leak is gone. Exterior Arts, LLC has done two other jobs for us in the past, rebuilt our deck and installed new composite siding on a bay window that we have. They did an excellent job on these projects as well."

"DO NOT hire this company. I hate my $13,000 deck!! Worse experience I ever had with a contractor. As a 70 year old woman acting alone, I contracted with Four Seasons to replace a wooden deck with same. A deposit was made for 1/2 in June 2023 with a start date of August. After that date passed with their delays, I requested to cancel. They had my money. I was assured with a new start date and agreed. The deck wasn’t completed until October 2023. The deck has issues. Pieces falling off at screw points, bowing and lifting boards. I emailed them this July with a very nice request for repairs along with photos of my concerns. No demands, no foul language, no hurry. Can you fix this? The phone call I received from Don Stanley was not pleasant. He was argumentative and defensive of the workmanship and wanted to charge for repairs. I did say, “that’s ridiculous”. He claims I was rude and because of that he could but would not replace the board for free. Who does that ? What a childish and immature way to run a business let alone a way for a grown man to act. He then said, “ I’m done’ and hung up. I called back and was threatened. I connected with Mrs. Stanley and was told it costs too much to send someone over and they didn’t have a crew for small jobs. I told her I would pay for the repairs, I pleaded. I just wanted this project done. She hung up. So what is it? Don’s world, Don’s way. No compromise no cordial, let’s make everyone happy. Don never inspected my completed deck. He’s complacent and only interested in the payout. You probably will never get service after the sale. Don Stanley is a miserable man with an angry disposition. Spiteful. He lacks in customer service, customer satisfaction and people skills. Veteran owned. Wow!! My veteran family members are appalled by your business practices. It’s been said, being a veteran doesn’t give you license to be a jerk. The military should be ashamed of you. Look elsewhere for your deck and fence. Read other reviews."
