I hired Rising Starr Construction to remove and replace exterior building material which had been…read moreaffected by wood destroying pests & organisms - mainly dry rot & fungus - as identified in Home and Pest Inspection Reports. Most of the work required replacing approximately 50 ft x 3 ft of T1-11 siding along several exterior walls and replacing trim boards at various locations. Josh Kesecker is the Owner, and Antonio Martinez is Lead Carpenter and primary onsite worker. After reaching out to Josh, he responded quickly to setup a time to meet at my house and review the scope of work. He was quick to respond with his very clear itemized quote, and he scheduled work immediately. His price was fair considering the work involved and level of quality he and Antonio provided. Josh is a third-generation contractor with prior experience as an Inspector, so he knows how to address corrective issues. He is soft-spoken and calm, very straightforward, experienced, and friendly. Antonio was a gem - a very friendly, skilled professional that works very hard and takes pride in doing work correctly. For example, the trim at a window had been identified in the reports as having fungal damage. When Antonio removed the trim, he found that the damage extended to a narrow 2" and 12" section of siding under the trim on the side of one of the windows, and above the garage personal-door. He proceeded to dig out and replace this siding before replacing the trim. Another contractor would not have included this level of quality control and workmanship and would have simply replaced the trim and left the damage underneath. These guys were very easy to work with, and came through, providing outstanding quality work. I highly recommend them.

I was referred to Rising Starr Construction shortly after purchasing my first home. We had an…read more'extra room' behind the garage that was below-grade, had drainage issues, had terrible flooring, and the existing French doors and interior walls appeared to have water damage. We called and the owner Josh came out to investigate and assess what we needed to have done - within a day or two he sent a comprehensive and competitive bid. After we agreed to the work Josh returned with his team and within a several days created a French drain system around the extra room to mitigate moisture intrusion, installed a new sliding glass door, installed new flooring / baseboard, resolved some moisture intrusion / fixed and painted dry wall inside the room, and built an incredible post and pier foundation for our new shed we were having delivered. All of the work was done efficiently and with masterful craftsmanship; Josh and his crew were always nice and even cleaned up the work area at the end of each work day! We just sold the home and definitely made our money back and more! Can't recommend Rising Starr Construction enough... Josh and his crew are exceptional and truly the best at what they do.

Alicia called us immediately and was impressed with their proficient text messages confirming our ideas and setting up an appointment about designing a deck landing project for us. Their in-person meeting to come to our home and seeing our outside space, while sketching on paper ideas, giving us input, and helping us create an ideal deck landing with steps. We loved it when Juan pulled out his phone and shared pictures of a past project to explain the difference between finishing steps to help us visualize what we wanted. Juan and Alicia also asked us what kind of lumber we wanted and assisted us in discussing several types of options. Within 24 hours of that meeting, they sent us a detailed PDF with the: 》exact materials needed to build the deck, 》list of the lumber we selected, 》the cost of starting the job, and a 》breakdown of the cost of labor, 》breakdown for the cost of materials, 》the exact amount of money for the deposit percentage to start the project, 》a scheduled cost for the remaining balance of labor costs explaining it would be due upon the completion of the job.

He worked under a reasonable budget, as I could not afford to simply re-do the whole kitchen. Those few pieces of the kitchen that were destroyed in the flooding, Mike re-built. Mike made good suggestions on small enhancements within my budget, and my kitchen is now better than ever. He did great work, came in as quoted, was a good communicator, and made me feel confident in the decisions were were making together. I was so happy with the experience, I immediately asked Mike to do a second project: he installed a front porch to my house and replaced my broken walkway with pavers. I left a lot of decision-making to Mike and he made good choices, so it fits with the existing look of the house. Good work. Mike is very trustworthy, easy-going, and takes pride in his work.

Casey/Ironclad Construction was referred to me by my electrician. We hired him this past summer to…read moredo a bathroom remodel job that involved knocking down walls to combine our existing bathroom with our walk in closet. It was clear from the start of the work that we hired the right guy for the job. Casey was up front and transparent about pricing, the process (which involved gutting the existing two rooms, re-piping, venting, new drains, new electrical, drywall, drywall texture, two new windows, and even fixing up some discovered and relatively extensive termite damage). Casey also helped coordinate work with our electrical crew and tile guy. Throughout the process my wife and I were so impressed with how clean Casey was despite the demo, dust, and other dirtier aspects of this project. When there were hiccups along the way, Casey let us know what was going on and why, then always did his best to get the job back on track as quickly as possible. He helped me work through some issues with our tile guy, make a big adjustment to the vanity/mirror/electrical last minute, and was always open to explaining things to me and walking me through the work. He was kind and respectful to my whole family and my 1.5 year old daughter got so used to seeing him, she would ask "where's Casey" on the days he wasn't there working. If you are looking for a Jack of all trades, who works clean, and can do all manner of projects, Casey is your guy. We've already had him back to fixed a rotted rim joist and will gladly have him back for future projects big and small. Thank you Casey!
