Gallagher Construction

Gallagher did a major remodel on our house from mid 2020 until mid 2021. We are so happy with the result, and all the collaboration with them. Their communications and clarity about cost and timing estimates ahead of time were excellent. Throughout the project they were professional, open, and did high quality work. All their employees, and the sub-contractors they hired, were seasoned experts who didn't cut any corners. The work they did was to demolish a 2.5 story big chimney with two fireplaces, to replace wood structure of a wing of the house with ~20ft tall steel columns, and ~20ft wide steel beams, and to install big sliding doors, build new roof where needed, and install wood floors. They had great design instincts which made the result better than what we could possibly have hoped for. They went above and beyond with every little detail to ensure we were not just satisfied, but amazed with the finished product. If we have big construction projects coming up in the future, we will definitely go with Gallagher again.

Sean Gallagher and his team are an amazing group of designers and craftsmen who utterly transformed our house into an elegant, mid-century modern dream home. Designer Stephanie Lofquist worked tirelessly with my wife to finesse every design detail with creative solutions that we appreciate every time we see them. All of Sean's employees and sub-contractors were an absolute pleasure to have in our home, an experience we've never had before. Sean himself made several suggestions early on in the remodel that we will be forever grateful for, including covering the deck and replacing the wall separating it from the family room with a folding glass NanaWall. There is no one I could recommend more highly than Gallagher Construction.

Sean Gallagher and his amazing crew of designers and craftsmen utterly transformed our home. This was not a mere remodel, but a total re-imagining of what could be done with the space. The entire team, including all Gallagher employees and subcontractors, were polite, friendly, careful, and highly competent. We still can’t quite believe we get to live here

Gallagher was hired to design and remodel two bathrooms and three bedrooms in our home. The design process was good, and we are happy with the final product. The sub-contractors were good, with the exception of the painters, who were average in my opinion. All of the Gallagher employees were easy to work with and did a quality job. It has been 7 months since completion and there have been no issues with plumbing, electrical, or otherwise. I have since used Gallagher to remove a window and feather-in siding and was happy with that work as well.

Very professional group of people. They installed 3 windows for me. Great help in picking out the correct product. We had to wait for the mfg to make the windows but as soon as they arrived the crew was scheduled and installed. Great cleanup and responding to phone calls.

We have worked with the Gallagher team on a number of projects over many years. From small items shoring up our tree-house, to full turn key design and remodel projects (living room, master bath, deck replacement, full home cosmetic refresh and more). Sean and team always deliver. Great collaboration on design, material selection and solid communication through the entire process. High degree of accountability, excellent craftmanship and value keeps us coming back. Most importantly, we trust them and their sub contractors (many we know now by name).

The crew at Gallagher Construction did a beautiful job with our three bathrooms and laundry room. They made the experience of not having a bathroom actually enjoyable. The team of subcontractors was respectful, clean and highly skilled in their craft. Our on-site crew from Gallagher was highly responsive and bent over backwards to ensure each and every detail was completed with perfection. The team even built us a custom drying rack for our laundry room that is simply beautiful. We will absolutely use Gallagher for our next remodel projects. Now, our master bathroom is the favorite room of the house!

We could not be happier with our remodel with Gallagher Construction! The planning phase took some time for us to nail down exactly how we wanted the house to flow. Stephanie, the head designer, worked tirelessly with endless revisions until we felt really good about how we were changing the layout. Working with her on choosing the finishes, which can be a nail biting experience, was wonderful as she was able to blend my style with her excellent taste and expertise. Once the demo was done we discovered huge wooden posts that had been covered up by a previous owner. This changed how we felt about the stain of the floors and the cabinets. I agonized over them and the team patiently stained a number of samples until I felt good about the decisions. Throughout the process, every person involved was friendly and wonderful to work with - from Sean's crew, the flooring guys, the painters and the cabinet maker - everyone was very pleasant and made a stressful endeavor feel less hectic. Sean estimated that the project would take 6 months to complete and 6 months from the day they started demo we moved in. Bart and Adam methodically worked through our punch list. We absolutely love the house and are really happy we spent the money and time to get it done. Every single inch of the house is usable and delightful. I highly recommend Gallagher.

We recently completed a two phase repair and and remodel project with Gallagher Construction and were very pleased with the both the process of working with the entire company and the final result. Except for the being "only" satisfied with the final result on the hardwood floors, we would describe the rest of the work as perfect - and we have a pretty high standards. Our repair project involved designing a solution to a leaking Juliet balcony. It had been "repaired" twice before, once by the previous owner and once by us. Other contractors we talked to were afraid to take the project on. We wanted someone who could design a complete fix to the problem and not just apply a bandaid. Gallagher crushed this phase, looking at range of options, talking through our needs and designing and executing a solution that is both robust, functional, and fits with the character of the house. They provided an estimate with an NTE and got the work done on budget. My only issue during this phase was that it did drag on due to some issues with not having the right the millwork. Our second phase was a top to bottom interior refresh w/ some light remodeling. It involved replacing 50% of the lower floors to match hardwoods, remodeling a half bath, removing columns, redoing a fireplace, replacing all the carpet, painting all the trim, and painting every interior wall. This gave us a chance to get interior design help from Stephanie and test Adam's logistics skills w/ subcontractors. We also wanted to live in the house for as much as possible, leaving only for about 2.5 weeks during floors, carpet, and painting. Stephanie was helpful at getting us organized and picking materials that looked good. Adam was able to build and eventually share a schedule in CoConstructor that made it clear when we would need to be out of the house. Sean's visit during our project walkthrough was clarifying and helped us make the right call on getting a consistent floor (vs trying to match two different floor products). Once the project started, Adam & Tyler were aggressive about clearing blocks and keeping things moving. We have a high quality bar and a long punchlist, and Adam didn't hesitate to work to address things. One area we had a major challenge was achieve the result we wanted on our hardwood floor refinish. The subcontractor promised a result that they didn't achieve in their first attempt. Adam worked with us to get to a result that we were satisfied with (at no extra cost), but it's probably the only part of the whole project that I wouldn't describe as perfect. Everywhere else, we got a great result and this phase of the project completed within the estimated time. (Amazing!) When we have another project, Gallagher will be our first call.

Sean and his team at Gallagher Construction are brilliant-- they are highly skilled and knowledgeable about all things construction and design. We look forward to working with them again in the future!
