Matthew G Hunter

My carport collapsed from very wet, heavy snow. Even though it was a very busy time for him, Matt Hunter came up with a week of when I contacted him. The final cost of the job was less than his estimate and the new carport is much sturdier and better looking than the previous one. He also installed two handrails for the staircase inside my house and a grab bar in my shower. The cost was more than fair and the quality of the finished work was great. I would highly recommend Matt for any construction project.

I have hired Matt for several large and small projects over the last few years. Every project went extremely well in a timely fashion and at a very fair price. His craftmanship is top notch. Matt is my #1 go to guy for all of my handyman projects I need help with.

We recently moved into a building I own, while waiting to build a new home on my son's property. There were 2 large (10 ft by 4 ft) windows on both sides of the entrance door. The sun beat down on these windows and heated the inside of the building, also no protection from the weather at the front door. Matt Hunter designed and placed permanent covers over the windows and doors. It was done in a timely manner and looks fantastic. Really improved the character of the building.

Matt recently completed some home maintenance repairs - reinstalled a closet rod that collapsed (it just MIGHT have been overloaded) and fixed a sticking door. In both cases, he quickly figured out what needed to be done and did it. I really appreciate his willingness to tackle any little repair.

I asked Matt to convert a 14 by 14 chain-link enclosed dog run into a covered tri-plex bird rehab facility. Simple in concept, VERY complicated in execution. Matt was wonderful in understanding what I wanted, figured out - in advance - all the details, and pulled it off! This was all last spring! He came back over the summer to tweak the design just a bit. Outcome is that several dozen birds have been rehabbed and released back into the wild. Great job, Matt!

Work was done quickly and very happy with results.

I'd noticed my carport no longer seemed to be squared up, one corner (downhill) a bit lower than the other three. Matt came out and determined that actually a couple of the corners were off. He sorted it all out, squared things up, replaced a couple of posts and it's good as new.

The sliding glass door in my family room was becoming increasingly difficult to slide. Matt came out and diagnosed the problem (a couple of the wheels under the door were not turning - maybe the result of dog/cat hair jamming the wheels?). He removed and replaced the wheels and the door is sliding again! He even adjusted the locking mechanism that hadn't worked properly for years. Amazing!

Matt completed the work in a professional and timely manner. Estimate and contract in order and accurate. I will have some future work for Matt who I recommend highly.

Matt was a little hard to get a hold of initially and it took a few weeks before we could schedule something, but once the work started he was fast, friendly, and very professional. Look forward to working with him again.

I have hired Matt several times to do repairs and upgrades on my 1950's house. He works well with me on design and materials options. His price is reasonable. He is always friendly and professonal.

Very well - have always been happy with Matt's work

Arrived when he said he would performed work perfectly

I am quite pleased with the work Matt has done for me. He is a good communicator and provides updates by email. I hope to work with him again in the future.

Perfect. Have hired Matt in the past.

On time, under budget. Design met all my criteria and was more innovative than I was coming up with on my own. He did a great job of hearing what I wanted in terms of utility and "feel" - and translating that into something I could afford. I love it.

It went well. Matt was very knowledgeable about maintenance as well as the job he was hired to do.

Matt did a terrific job.  The major project was a deck replacement.  I had only a general concept of what sort of "feel" I wanted in the end, and really no idea of how to get there.  He was exceedingly patient in helping me sort it all out - he made lots of suggestions, asked questions, brought samples, etc.  He was also great in helping me sort out that something I thought I wanted might not end up producing the desired result - didn't tell me what to do but brought potential issues to my attention.  When I ended up hung up on the color of panels to go on a portion of the deck, he bought a whole selection and then placed them up on the roof so I could actually look at them, full-size, in place.  He then returned all the ones I didn't want.  And, his craftsmanship is beautiful.  The spacing between the deck boards is precise, all the edges are finished nicely, and the railing is a thing of beauty - joints exceedingly well done.  I had also made clear that I had budget constraints, so he was great in helping me sort out less expensive options.  He gave me a clear, written bid document - with various options broken out and a range of costs for some components where I was still sorting things out.  The project ultimately came in on the low end of the range of projections and is beautiful.

In terms of the various other little projects, he's been great in helping with all kinds of things from bathroom fan, to dryer vent, etc.  Always very professional, prompt, and a great problem-solver.

Matt did a terrific job. He is meticulous and his dedication to perfection was/is obvious. I was in no hurry, so wasn't an issue but it was a large job and he works alone. Plus weather was a big factor during deconstruction/construction. Matt kept me up-to-date on his schedule plans timely via email and texts. All in all I am very happy with the job. i have a deck I can really be proud of. My Dad was a "finish" carpenter, and I think he would be happy?. Also, he came in under budget ($7.00?)?? I will most definitely use Matt again, and highly recommend him!!

All went well.  I wanted to use the same posts and upright boards as they were still in good condition.  Matt repaced all rotten boards, braces, etc. that needed to be replaced.  I had ideas on how it should be done.  I have hired Matt in the past and as usual his ideas were much better than mine at saving cost and work that may be needed in the future.  He had to modify a corner post that saved me cost and was as strong if not stronger than replacing it.  Gave me a material list and I went to Home Depot, picked it up and had all ready for him.  That was another cost savings.  He is a very honest contractor and his work is great!  I've hired him to replace an attic ladder, finish carpentry work, finish counter top repairs, etc.  He can do it all and is good at what he does.

Matt is a true professional.  He knows how to do the normal routine remodel tasks, but he can problem solve and design as well.  We needed a bench designed in our front courtyard that would be a functional bench but also hold up a courtyard wall.  Matt designed and built a very functional bench for us.  He is very easy to work with on remodel projects.  Leave him be, and he gets the project done quickly. 

Matt responded to my email with a phone call and came over the same day. He figured out a solution and resolved it immediately in less than 2 hours. I hope he will be available for my big projects. He reflects the best attributes of a contractor (and more).
