"Jim was great to communicate with, had a big job in a small basement and he gave me the living space and additional bathroom we so needed. Only complaint was at the end of the job work times were not consistent and some things were rushed, or just not properly thought out. I would use the company again for the right job."
"Jason was a pleasure to work with and very communicative and professional throughout. I would highly recommend him and would rehire him for any future projects."

"Couldn't be better -- first-rate service all around: fast and responsive communication (even late on a Sunday), exceptionally polite and well-prepared (even stopped at Home Depot beforehand so he knew he'd have the right materials). I'm already making a list of projects and looking forward to working with him again."
"It went excellent! Hi Tech Construction Co gave me a detail estimate of the job. And compared to other estimates I received from several other companies, Hi Tech's was the most reasonably priced. Hi Tech also gave me a timeline of the job from beginning to finish and they were right on target. The crews showed up on time and carried out the job like experts - they surely looked like they knew what they were doing. I noticed that they were very concerned about the safety of our neighbors, anybody passing by, their crews, and us. They also cleaned everything right after they finished their job. I was really happy with the timeliness and the quality of their job. I will definitely strongly recommend Hi Tech. I do not think you can go wrong with them. "
"Ten out of ten. Completed the job within quoted price range and within estimated time frame. Extremely trust worthy and good communication throughout the process. Great workmanship and couldn’t be happier with the final product."
