"Since March 2026, Mostaed Construction has tackled six projects at my home: two bathroom tile projects, a large deck replacement, small deck replacement, back siding/front door painting project and front porch column replacements. Mostaed subs included drywall professionals, painters, concrete professionals, and truly superior craftsmen who dealt with installing tile, heated flooring, deck construction and siding replacement. I also have them scheduled for four future projects (kitchen replacement, basement bathroom floor replacement, house painting, and tree removal services. I highly recommend this team of professionals….SIX STARS!"
