Over several weeks, Nick expertly tackled multiple projects at my home. He skillfully removed an…read moreold door frame and installed a new one, complete with a storm door at the front entrance. He also finished the exterior door trim, resolving an issue left incomplete during the original siding installation years ago - it looks fantastic! Inside, he successfully repaired a jammed pocket door and meticulously replaced a severely water-damaged wall next to the shower with beautiful ceramic tile. Nick is not only a pleasure to work with and offers excellent rates, but his skill and positive attitude have ensured he'll be my go-to for several more projects this summer.

CS Construction installed new siding in fall of 2025. Initially the work was going very well and I…read morewas satisfied until they said it was complete. The stored my heavy glass storm door in its frame on it's side and hinges on rough uneven landscaping rock in full sun all day for 6 days. I took it for granted that they must know what they're doing. Was I wrong. They re-hung the door leaving over a 1/2 inch gap on the open side exposing the latch, which was barely catching, so didn't really stay closed. Their answer to fix this was to loosen a few screws on that side of the frame so it would shift towards the door. So, the frame is loose, a good yank and it would all come down and the gap was still over 3/8 inch. I called again. They don't return calls or respond to emails. I finally took time off without pay and had to to go the office. They came a 2nd time. Tightened the screws they loosened and adjusted it from the hinge side. Sure, the gap is acceptable, but now the door handle butts up against the door jamb. I have to use the handle to lift up the door to work the lock and open and close the door. Chris, the owner, tells me it's an old door and I didn't purchase it through them so he basically isn't going to do anything. He has insulted me and shown me disrespect at every turn. Treating me like I'm a stupid and know nothing about hanging a door. Actually, I do and have hung doors in the past. Too old and have arthritis now though. Remember above, I stated how they store it after THEY removed it. I did some research and found out that will damage the door frame causing it to warp and also damage the hinges causing issues like sticking and difficulty opening and closing the door. As soon as they removed it and stored it, it became their responsibility to ensure it wasn't damaged and that they re-hung t correctly afterwards. I didn't expect it to hang like a brand new door, but I do expect it to work properly as it did before they touched it. They also have to fix a couple of pieces of siding which were hung badly and hanging half off, which I noticed a few days after they finished. It wasn't due to any storm damage either. Lesson learned. I paid a lot of money for a professionalism, but surely didn't get it. Don't get me wrong the foreman for my job was great. The rest not so much and Chris, well I won't say what I think of him. I will never recommend them and will go out of my way to tell people to steer clear of them solely because of Chris.

I rarely leave negative reviews, but this experience needs to be shared so others know what to…read moreexpect. We hired this company to remodel a bathroom, and the process was problematic from start to finish. What should have been a straightforward project took nearly one year from start to finish. We received quote and put down deposit in March 2025. After that, communication essentially stopped. Call went unanswered and unreturned until late June. Then again heard very little until September. The lack of responsiveness throughout the project was extremely frustrating. I strongly advise anyone considering this company to read their quote carefully. We specifically asked for a tiled shower but ended up with solid wall panels instead. That was not what we expected. There were also significant workmanship and coordination issues: - the toilet was removed and flooring completed. He screwed up replacing toilet, we ended up waiting 10 days for a plumber to come and repair it - another toilet removed and flooring completed. Same person, replaced toilet incorrectly and we had water leaking into the basement - a large amount of water was discovered in the basement when they were removing the old shower/tub with chaotic clean up - we received no meaningful design assistance and were offered very limited product option - communication was consistently poor and often dismissive from Dave, Jason and Chris Every step of the process had issues, from quoting and communication to execution. I cannot recommend the company based on our experience.

SUMMARY: Months of no communication, unfinished siding that left my home exposed, unannounced…read morematerial deliveries, safety hazards left behind, and a surprise invoice sent six months later with no explanation. Completely unprofessional from start to finish. Absolutely unacceptable, unprofessional, and negligent experience. Northern Lights was by far the worst contractor experience I have ever had. From start to finish, their communication, accountability, and basic competence were nonexistent. After a storm on May 15, this company dragged its feet for months. In June, they removed a piece of my siding to "find a match" and then did absolutely nothing to replace it, leaving my home with exposed sheathing for months. That missing siding was never addressed by them--I eventually had to go buy siding myself just to prevent further damage to my house. I provided a check in mid-June, which wasn't even cashed for weeks because they "forgot." That should have been my first red flag. On July 9, materials were delivered with zero warning, blocking me inside my own garage. When I called to ask why the materials were gone later that day, I was told I must be confused and that the materials were either never there or that I moved them. Management said they would look into it and call me back. No one ever followed up. Materials were delivered again on July 10--still with no notice. The roof was completed on July 11, and they left tons of nails scattered throughout my driveway and yard, creating a serious safety hazard. On July 16, I called about the siding. I was told they were "waiting to hear from me," despite previously saying they would follow up. I specifically stated I would be out of state and did not want anyone at my house while I was gone. They ignored that and showed up anyway. That was the last contact I had with anyone at Northern Lights for months. Then, out of nowhere in mid-December, I received a call claiming I had an outstanding balance--but they couldn't tell me how much it was. I was told someone would check and call back "as soon as possible." That never happened. The next day, I called the office and was told my balance looked like it was around $4,500, but things were "confusing." They also said they were going to do something for me on price because what had happened to that point was unacceptable. I was promised a call back the following day. That never happened. A few days later, after multiple unanswered calls, I was told someone would contact me right away. No one ever did. Finally, on January 13--six months after the roof was completed and after months of silence--they suddenly sent an invoice with no explanation. This company: * Removes siding and leaves homes exposed * Delivers materials without notice * Leaves nails and debris behind * Ignores customers for months * Cannot explain their own billing There is zero accountability and zero professionalism here. I would strongly advise anyone considering Northern Lights to look elsewhere unless you enjoy chasing people down, protecting your own home from their negligence, and receiving surprise invoices months later with no communication. Do not recommend.
