"Chuck and Peter were excellent to work with. They helped me through all steps of a difficult permitting process. They sourced hundreds of custom stone, tile, countertop, plumbing fixtures and other items I had picked out. Their foreman was awesome and easy to work with. They had answers to all my questions and were quick to resolve any issues that came up during the build. They really went out of their way to ensure I was a satisfied customer. I highly recommend the Village Builder."
"AMAZING!! It's so important to partner with exceptional professionals (accountants, lawyers, financial advisors, builders, etc) and Eric is most certainly one of these. He is very professional, showed up in person to give me an estimate, his team did an exceptional job, and he showed up in person again to make sure the work met my expectations. I am incredibly happy with my fence; it is a work of art! I would highly recommend Eric and his team for any project you have in mind. Book early, as talent requires that you may have to wait!"
"This is my fifth time contracting Dorson for some additional work on our 1920s farm house. This included 2 new window dormers, front porch dormer, new roofing, decorative masonry work, along with a bathroom remodel. I am very happy with the work completed and everything was completed in a timely manner. Communication was excellent and Dorson was easy to work with regarding more custom aspects of our designs. I would highly recommend."

"Great team to work with, quality work, they go out of their way to please the customer. We were doing a living room and front deck expansion project and Paul and his team delivered a beautiful completed project and on budget. I have already recommended Triple D to two other friends for assisting them with their current projects."
"The Ditgen crew was great and the work done was amazing! The finished tub and tile work was stunning. The crew showed up on time every day and were polite and respectful. At the end of each day they went out of their way to clean up. They answered every question and seemed so knowledgeable about the work they were doing. I would recommend Ditgen to anyone who is looking for work, no matter the size of the job! You wonâ t be disappointed!"
"Adam and Jacob removed the old fence and installed a new fence that really improved the property. We were so pleased with the work we hired them to also install new doors. They did an outstanding job on both the fence and doors!"
"These guys were great!! Reasonable estimate followed by very high quality work. Prompt work and attention to detail could not have been better. Even did some repairs that we didn’t think could be done. And finished in less than a week. I highly appreciate all their work and recommend them. Could not be more pleased. Give them a call!"
"Toro did an outstanding job! They were easy to work with, transparent, very responsive, and so friendly and polite. I am very pleased with their work. I highly recommend Toro for your next project!"

Any type of construction that damages a tree’s roots via soil compaction can be dangerous, and is one of the primary causes of mature tree death in residential areas. Simply putting lots of weight on the ground around the tree, like construction supplies, trailers, and equipment, can kill roots near the surface.

Accidentally striking a tree with equipment or supplies is rarely a problem, but can cause damage of its own, too.
