"Three generations of Babcocks are involved in this business and working with them was delightful. They responded promptly to our initial inquiry via Angie's List and quickly arranged some initial work so we could have a floor installed. They helped us design a new kitchen and built cabinets to fit it. They also built custom bookshelves for our library. Their work is first-rate. They were efficient and imaginative. Prices were fair and their subcontractors reliable. In short, they were the best contractors we have ever worked with."
"Reule Sun did a FABULOUS job on our house, with incredible attention to detail, extremely thorough preparation, total job-site neatness and cleanliness, lightning responsiveness to any issues which arose, and a very high level of craft. The workers were polite, respectful, friendly, and very conscientious. You will pay for this. But we found it more than worth the difference. After watching our job, the neighbor across the street has hired them for a complete stucco job and also new windows. (If your windows are within shouting distance of needing replacement, do these just ahead of the stucco job.)"
