"Hired these guys to build a long half wall built out onto a concrete floor in order to mount some electrical equipment. Zack was very knowledgeable, and gave me a couple options for what I wanted to achieve. He also helped me build the wall in such a way that allowed easy access for the electricians coming in behind him, which helped save time and cost later down the line. Quote was very reasonable, and the install was done quickly and efficiently, with a high level of attention to detail. I was very satisfied and have recommended them to others who ended up having a similar experience. High level of professionalism and very respectful, honest folks. look forward to having them involved in my next big project."

"The crew with Coastline Construction was great! Amazing communication, excellent work ethic and overall just a great experience. Jon was able to strip my roof and lay new shingles in 2 days. Absolutely 0 mess from the demo of the old shingles. To top it all off the guys went out of their way to remove my large window AC for the season. I would recommend Coastline Construction for any job big or small!"
