"Konstantin and his team at Kreative Barns are great to work with. They have done significant work on our home, including building a deck, building a porch, replacing siding and trim, installing windows and several interior remodeling projects. Konstantin always has creative ideas on how to execute a project better, and his team -- professional, on time and attentive to detail -- does a very good job of turning ideas into reality. Konstantin's pricing is consistently reasonable, and he takes the steps necessary to insure customer satisfaction. In an environment where it can be challenging to trust and rely on contractors, Konstantin and his team are a welcome exception, and I wouldn't hesitate to use them again on future home projects."

"The work of Valdi and his Fernandes Construction crew is truly exceptional. Not only are they skilled professionals, but they are also master craftsmen. My husband and I purchased a vacation home that needed to be completely resided with wood cedar siding. The work was absolultely stunning. In addition, Fernandes Construction did all of the trim work, Azek steps front & back, installed 7 new windows, a vinyl picket fence, as well as a cupola. As we live out of state, Valdi communicated with us every step of the way and sent photos to update us often. The timeliness of this company is exceptional. Valdi told us what would take place and he met every single deadline. The company's professionalism is unparalleled, and Valdi's customer service is phenomenal. He wants his clients to not just be pleased, but to be totally delighted with the work. His crew is polite, conscientious and dedicated to completing stellar work. My husband and I recommend Fernandes Construction 100%. In fact, our new neighbors are highly impressed with his work, too. We are huge fans of Fernandes Construction!!!!!"
