We had a wonderful experience with Jake and his crew. They recently finished a large remodel of two…read morebathrooms, and they both turned out great. One was a small guest bathroom, and it is still small, but sharp! The other bathroom involved knocking down a wall to make a huge master bathroom, as well as a moderately large closet. Family and friends come into that bathroom and don't want to leave! My 6-year old granddaughter insisted on taking a shower in the large shower, with its beautiful tile and two full glass sides. Speaking of tile, the tile work was meticulously done, which is easy to tell. These jobs involved plumbing, electrical work, adding crawl space beams, drywall and paint -- everything. Jake and his crew also insulated and draywalled the already framed in rooms and ceiling in our garage, and added a wall Heating/cooling unit. It looks great and now my husband can work in there year-round. Finally, Jake oversaw landscapers, who completely recreated the pool area. They were amazing to watch as they laid pavers all around the pool. It will make swimming a pleasure. As part of this project, Jake and his crew built a structure -- I would call it a small pavilion -- where my husband can grill and use his Big Green Egg and be out of bad weather and be a part of the pool action. This was a professional crew. Of course, things went wrong. Nobody gets everything right the first time and unexpected things happen in every remodel. Sometimes there was confusion about supplies that weren't picked up -- a bit more organization would help that -- and a bigger crew. However, I appreciate that Jake hires qualified people and tries to pay them well. Jake was careful to keep me informed about the budget as we went along and we ended up about $4000 over -- not bad for a bid of $85,000 for the entire job. If you want a building company that does quality work and will listen to your concerns, Aarow Building is for you.

Jake has worked for us a few times, helping us realize our vision for our house. He took on a…read moregreenhouse addition, a roof remodel, and new windows in our older house. All of the jobs were done in a timely manner, within the bid range, and very beautifully done. He and his crew have excellent attention to detail, cleaned up after themselves, and even caught a flaw in the manufacturing that could have cost us a lot of money to fix down the line. I highly recommend him for any remodeling you may want done.

Dave has been great in helping me with several projects on my home and rental properties. He has…read moredone sheet-rocking and painting, hung several interior doors (that he helped me pick out at the store), replaced the rotten boards around my chimney (and painted and caulked the finished product so that it looks like new), as well as repaired/waterproofed a bathroom floor that I was having problems with. It is important to me that I invite someone into my home that I know is safe around my wife and children, and Dave passes the test -- he is very honest and worthy of trust. For home improvement projects, I need someone who can identify the critical aspects of the job, write an accurate estimate, and then perform the work in a timely and efficient way. Dave is able to do that consistently, which is why he has earned my business. I highly recommend you give him a chance to bid your project.

The home has most of its original woodwork throughout the home and the guys were just great in trying to protect it. The repaired the roof where the previous owner's contractors did a subpar job. They got all the water from coming in and they fixed my front porch roof with just the excellence that I would expect. David Bale is who I work with and this guy is second to none. His customer service and honest is just great. It shows just how great this company to have employees like the ones that I met as I had the home upgraded to keep the water out.

I was worried about the state of my deck, so I called TrueSon. Dave showed up, took the time to…read moreinvestigate all my concerns, explained to me why the issues had shown up on an inspection, and assured me that there was no major reason to do the work before we decided to sell. He spent half an hour answering my questions and got no financial gain out of the interaction in the end. Rest assured, when we do ultimately NEED to get the work done in the deck, we will call TrueSon - a local business with integrity.

Erskine has just finished building a new porch and now he has finished replacing the front door, so i will continue to hire him whenever I need wowrk done. He is personable, does excellent work and I am sure every customer is important to him. He and his crew took the time to make sure my new door fit well into the old space and since I have a n older home that was no easy task, but the end result is perfect. He has my confidence and recommendation.

I have spent 2 months painting the interior of my house, room by room, closet by closet. By the…read moretime I was ending my job, I decided to reach out to a painting contractor to complete the areas that were hard to reach. Shannon responded to my call immediately, was out to my house that same day to provide a free estimate, and within a couple of weeks I had everything done. Shannon and his crew (of 4-5 guys) showed up on time, ready to work. They not only painted hard-to-reach areas (including a 20 foot stairwell wall and other areas), but also took care of some long overdue items around the house (drywall work, mud & tape). They were in and out within 4 hours. All of this came at a cost that was extremely reasonable (especially compared to a contractor we used during our last paint job 9 years ago). Absolutely recommend A Touch Above Painting.

We have worked with Shannon, the owner, two times now. Both times he did full house painting which…read moreincluded drywall work (mounting, mud&tape), spraying texture on walls and ceilings, and painting trim work, windows, and kitchen cabinets. He has gotten the jobs done each time within the timeframe we wanted, and is always very pleasant to work with. We leave Shannon the keys and know we'll return to a transformed house. Shannon truly goes above and beyond. This last time he surprised us and had assembled the new fans we bought (that were still in boxes) and mounted them. When we did the final walk-through with him one of our fuses happened to blow and he helped us get it fixed. Apparently he's not only a great painter but he's also a handyman available for hire! Looking forward to use Shannon again. Would recommend him to anyone looking for honest and quality workmanship. Thank you for making our projects stress-free, Shannon! We're very pleased with the turnout.
