**★★★★★ — Avalon Flooring, Oct. 2015**

They are detailed oriented, do a great job on design, and get all jobs done in a timely manner for their clients to enjoy. If you want a builder with a great reputation, great eye for design, and your project done on time. Make sure to call them to have your next home built.

**★★★★★ — teeboch, May 2015**

> Maina Enterprises are a pleasure to deal with and his clients too. I have been providing Maina Enterprises with their Plumbing and Lighting supplies for over 10 years and they are a pleasure to deal with. The work is beautiful and every client has been satisfied. Keep up the great work!

**★★★★★ — htomar, Feb. 2014**

> We were very fortunate to hire Paul R. Maina Builders shortly after our home was damaged by Hurricane Sandy.  Paul, and his project manager,  Linda, helped guide us through the redesign, renovation and raising of our home. The quality of work provided was excellent. It has been a pleasure working with them. We would highly recommend Paul for any new construction or renovation.

**★★★★★ — User, Jan. 2014**

> Paul and his team are excellent to work with and truly care about their clients.  We selected Paul Maina Builders for a major renovation on our LBI house and were extremely satisfied.  Everything was done on time and on budget.  Best experience we have every had with a builder.

**★★★★★ — ebtb2000, Dec. 2013**

> Paul R. Maina has been our first choice contractor for many home projects large and small. He and the tradesmen/women working with him have always been professional, courteous, trustworthy and knowledgeable. When our house was significantly damaged during super storm Sandy Paul was there for us.

**★★★★★ — Jenave Kitchen and Bath, LLC, Dec. 2013**

> Paul is an excellent, very detailed, reputable builder. We highly recommend him. And have worked with him on multiple projects. He always comes through and will stand behind anything he does. He takes the time do the job right on every job he does. He is very passionate about what he does. You can not go wrong when selecting him as your builder!

**★★★★★ — Mc Elwain Interiors, Dec. 2013**

> Paul has done work for us over the last Year plus and we have enjoyed every minute of it.  The results are amazing.  We bought an older cedar shake home in LBI.  He built an outdoor shower and Laundry room among many other projects that made our dream come true.  His attention to detail ,enthusiasm and vision is remarkable.
> On a personal note, when Sandy happened, he really showed his dedication to his customers.  When we were unable to get to our home, he checked in and got back to us.  This was all done out of the goodness of his heart.
> Great and talented contractor.  Fabulous Person.  Honored to work with him.

**★★★★★ — cyzner properties, Dec. 2013**

> Paul is a pleasure to work with and his attention details and time lines are his strength, I am a builder of upscale commercial bldgs, when I can't handle a fit-out for a customer, his firm is the one I call to give the project to.  After being in the industry 40 years and seen many people who call themselves craftsman's, I can say Paul Maina is one of very few who can say he really is.

**★★★★★ — escapeharbor, Dec. 2013**

> Combination home/commercial construction after a fire.  We were absentee (different state) and the entire construction project was delagated to PRM Builders.  PRM went beyond our expectations by assuring that all details such as permits, plan changes, schedules, etc. we attended to and executed in a timely manner.
> Progress reporting was also completed with "up to date" internet based systems allowing us to be informed on a real time basis of conditions and progress.
> Considering other contractors in the area, I do not know that we could have gotten thru the project without PRM Builders.
