"Perfect, George Merryfield and his crew cooperated in every way and all work was independently inspected and certified. I can strongly recommend Merryfield Construction to anyone considering home repair or improvement work."

"Dan and his son Tyler did an outstanding job. The basement was broken up in separate spaces including a 22' by 7' area which will double as a plant room during the winter time. He installed a counter and sink in this space and added a floor to ceiling built in bookshelf. To close off this area from the main space, he also installed a barn door which looks great. In the main area the work was done to perfection. The bathroom is a little jewel and we could not be happier with the work that was done. Dan and Tyler also went above and beyond when they moved furniture from the main floor to the basement and also put up additional shelves for us. I told Dan to pencil us in for the same time next year to update our main bathroom!"

"Although they were not familiar with soundproofing techniques, once provided with the proper materials and instructions, John and Nick did a wonderful job! They spared no effort to follow directions to the letter, to produce the best possible results. As questions arose, we would discuss and agree on the best course of action given the requirements, as well as their extensive construction experience. Most times I did not inspect their work until the end of the day. Any concerns were brought to their attention the next morning, at which time they would address them immediately and satisfactorily, as needed. Although most home owners would not normally require the soundproofing techniques of this job, the professional attributes displayed would greatly benefit any general construction work. My only concern was that John did not provide a written estimate before starting, especially since minor changes were made to the requirements mid-stream. In the end, I was so satisfied with the results, I have already received an estimate for JJ Construction to remodel the rest of the basement space."

"

This family owned and operated business was excellent. The front office coordinated all services in record speed.  Desmond's estimate was right on the money, and his partner Bryan completed the job with total professionalism and efficacy.  

The customer service was one of a kind. The job was done in exactly the time they stated.  I trust and feel totally comfortable with this crew around my home and family. They asked for feed back to improve their services. I was so impressed by this!

I will use them again and highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade or fix their home or properties.

Thank you Integrity Design and  Build Inc.

"Brian ran into some unforeseen complications on a previous job causing our job to be delayed slightly.  On our project, they arrived early and got straight to work.  Brian and his team are very hard workers - they get a lot accomplished quickly. They cleared brick walkways and disposed of all the brick materials.  Graded all the area and put up the forms for the concrete.  They laid sod down where some of the walkways were which we eliminated.  The concrete work went smoothly and looks great.  They were very neat and cleaned up the entire area each day before leaving.  Brian is courteous and hard working and truly cares about his customers satisfaction."

"The construction went beautifully. Jeff Ramsey completed the bathroom and went above and beyond what we expected. Living in a home built in 1847 has its challenges as in needing to reinforce the floor to ensure this old house would support our newly tiled floors, tiled shower with glass doors, claw foot tub and marbled vanity. He was so calm and reassuring during the process which reflected on how we dealt with the renovation ourselves. He was extremely conscientious and reliable and that's why we have just hired Ramsey Builders for our addition that is underway now. The bathroom renovation went great and we have all the confidence in the world in Ramsey Builders."

"Ron did a great job on this complete home refresh. It was nice to have a single point of contact for roofing, windows, siding, stucco, painting, and garage doors. Even though this project took several months to complete, Ron did a good job of keeping us informed."

"Jim and his guys were absolutely great to work with...  I've never had the privilege of working with a contractor that was so punctual and knowledgeable before.
Throughout the entire project, Jim and his crew (2-5 guys depending on what was being done on a specific day) were punctual... showing up at 7AM every day.  They always responded to phones calls, texts and emails without fail.  Saying these guys are good communicators is an understatement and I am glad that I have found "my contractor."
They started with the messiest project first, of course... the ceiling. Scraping, sanding, skimming multiple times to bring my 80s ceiling into the current century.  The texture had been painted over so many times in the past but this group made quick work of it.  They covered everything in plastic to protect furniture that I couldn't remove in advance and cleaned up after themselves at the end of each day.  In the first couple of days they focused on getting as much done to the ceiling as possible before hitting a point where they just had to wait for things to dry.
Once the ceiling dry time gate was gone, they really began spending full days at my home to ensure they stuck to their projected schedule (and to help ensure I had my home available for some pre-planned social events).
They pulled up carpet, began laying flooring, preparing for the walls to be painted and baseboard to be replaced.  Their attention to detail was great... picking up on things that needed to be done that my wife and I hadn't necessarily noticed and clearly taking pride in their work.  They continued to be very communicative, letting us know what was happening, what the plans were for a given day, etc etc.
There were never any "surprise issues" that they tried to charge me for... actually, any time they found anything or we had small requests or tweaks they handled it without issue and seemed to hold getting the job done right and making us happy above anything else.
I cannot stress enough how much I've come to trust these guys in the last 2 weeks... knowing all of them by name and getting to know their personalities.  These are good guys.  They didn't make us feel like we were in the way or a bother if we had questions or wanted to see something.
They also took a lot of care to minimize the impact on our daily life.  The work was mostly done in our living and dining room (in addition to stairways, hallways, etc) so some impact is unavoidable.  For example, when the flooring wasn't 100% complete, they laid flooring in the primary walking path from our front door so that we had flooring to walk on (instead of the concrete below).  There were a lot of small things like that, where the Hunt group really just went out of their way to make the renovation a pleasant experience for us.
The flooring was put down, baseboard, and the walls got painted... all in all the project stuck to it's 1.5 week estimate.  We were walked through all the work multiple times to ensure we were happy and address any questions/concerns/etc.
It really turned out great, we are so thrilled with the way our home has been transformed.
After the work was officially completed and I shook everyone's hand for what I thought was the final time on this project... they stepped up once again to help me.  We had another group out to do some electrical work and run wiring for a new home theater and they created some holes in the walls.  Well, I sent Jim a text message that evening and asked if he could help me.  Not only did he come out the next morning to get the holes fixed for me, he didn't even charge me for it.  He really wanted us to be happy with the result of all of the work that had been done.
In summary, I really feel very thankful to have met Jim through Angie's List.  We had a lot of past experiences with contractors, good and bad... but I am glad that I have found "our guy."  He takes a lot of pride in his teams work and takes a genuine interest in the way his customer feels at the end of the project.
Really great experience... Jim and I are already talking about the rest of our short and long term "home project list."

"excellent work. Would definitely hire again"

"This is the second time I've turned to Mark for help in getting a home loan. The reason I'm a repeat customer is that Mark is great. He always gets me the absolute best rate and is an honest, tell-it-like-it-is person - so very appreciated during the confusing and scary process of getting a mortgage.
I tend to run a little on the neurotic side, and Mark handled my constant badgering and near freak-outs with great finesse, providing just the right amount of hand-holding and straight-up advice. This time around, I bought my home through a private sale, meaning neither party used a realtor. So I needed even more attention and guidance. Mark not only did a great job with the mortgage, he also gave me invaluable advice on issues related to the sale but outside his scope, such as home inspection.
A big THANKS to Mark. I couldn't have done it without you and Judy!
