The project was far too small for Compass to even consider, but Chris's generosity with his time left an impression. We will definitely use them for larger projects in the future!

The team does high quality work, leaves the area impeccably clean and in my opinion the extremely efficiently from the day the first shovel hit the ground. Matt has an incredible eye and knowledge of what will best suite your project's goals and fit your space appropriately. There won't be another landscaper that will get our business no future referrals. Thank you Matt, Rigo and Rolling Landscapes.

My husband and I hired Nate Kipnis and his firm after interviewing several architects about the…read moredesign of our vacation property. Our wish was to build a second home with green features, and the Kipnis firm was without question up to the task. He educated us about the options for building materials, helped us select a contractor, then worked closely with the contractor to make sure he understood all of the innovative design features. Other members of his staff were equally professional. Nate was highly knowledgable, yet he listened to our input and designed a home that remains today a huge source of pride for our family. He was a pleasure to work with every step of the way!

I read these glowing reviews and LAUGHED. Jeff must have written them himself. We hired him to…read morepower wash and stain a deck and porch and not only did he and his "stepson" do a terrible job, Jeff suddenly became impossible to get hold of. We were left with a mess. There was stain all over the screens and puddles of stain that took months to dry. Worst of all, he had damaged the wood floor of our cedar porch with the pressure washer. The grain opened up and was never the same. We spent a lot ofmoney and we wanted a portion of it back, but we couldn't find him. So we hired another company to repair the damage, at great cost to us. Jeff Fank is the kind of contractor who gives other contractors a reallybad name. BUYER BEWARE!!!

We hired Richard Chuk of Richlind Architects to design our deck and provide plans for permit…read more Richlind did a great job. Richard provided us with several design ideas, from simple to complex. He worked closely with us to ensure that we were happy with the final design and that it would meet our budget. He visited the site, took comprehensive notes and planned a deck that would work well in the allotted space. Once we selected a design, Richard drew up plans, which were accepted by the village for permit with no hitches. In addition to the plans, Richard did extensive research for building materials and made several recommendations. All in all the experience was excellent, the deck was built and everything passed final inspection. I found Rich's approach professional and thorough, and his designs were creative yet functional.
