**★★★★★ — Arnie Kana, May 2016**

> Dan and his crew did an excellent job on our remodeling project.  It was a large job complicated by the fact that we stayed in the home through out the project.  Dan worked very well with us to keep us posted on progress and met with us to advise for the many options we deeded to decide upon (fixtures, lighting, appliances etc.).  The level of quality was outstanding.  We were 100% satisfied with the end result.

**★★★★★ — L Hsu, May 2016**

> I had a great experience with Prather Construction on a family room addition and multi-floor intensive renovation of the house.  They completed the project on time and for a reasonable fee.  Mike and Dan were responsive, great to work with, and did a nice job on the exterior and interior.  Their subcontractor (framing, painting, wood flooring, in particular) were exceptional.

**★★★★★ — Paul Duffly, April 2016**

> Mike Prather and his associates were all rpersonable, collegial, competent and did their work with integrity and efficiently.
> (I may run out of adjectives )
>
> They completed a large renovation - converting a "3-decker" to condominiums, involving major upgrades of all systems and complete gut job renovations of two of the units, on budget and on  time. The 2 units we wanted to sell  sold quickly, in part because inspectors told prospects e buyers that the work was of good quality.
> We continue to reside in one of the units, and to enjoy living here.

**★★★★★ — Allie Castino, April 2016**

> I can't say enough great things about Prather Construction. Throughout the course of our home renovation, Dan Prather has always been extremely communicative, professional, knowledgeable, and straightforward, and very flexible when we needed to change something and/or cut costs. Prather Construction's work quality and that of his associates and subcontractors is outstanding. Dan always answered our questions and requests immediately, and was always available to talk through pros/cons of various decisions with us. I would recommend Prather Construction to anyone for any project large or small. We are thrilled with our new home!

**★★★★★ — Gina S., April 2016**

> Prather Construction did a two story addition that consisted of a family room, bedroom, and bathroom, and deck.  At least one of the Prathers was on site every day which made communication very easy.  They were also very responsive by phone and email.  The project had very few surprises, and there was no nickel-and-diming going on.  They went above and beyond to make sure the job was done well, and  all of the subcontractors held themselves to a very high standard as well.  For example, the painters came back to do an extra coat of stain on the deck because it didn't look as good as they hoped. Also, instead of putting ice and water shield up six feet on the roof as the plan called for, they put it all the way to the roof peak to give us extra protection since we tend to get ice dams here.  Our architect made a mistake on the plan that would have been a structural problem, and the Prathers caught it and fixed it before too much work had been done on those beams.  A less experienced crew might not have had the intuition to know that there was a problem.  I happily recommend them to friends and neighbors, and I plan to use them again for future projects.

**★★★★★ — Dovercraft Construction Inc., April 2016**

> We have hired Dan and Mike and their crews numerous times over the past 30 years whenever we need an experienced, knowledgeable skilled company to handle some of our unique , complicated projects

**★★★★★ — Ali Rizvi, April 2016**

> The people at Prather Construction are highly professional and very trustworthy. They have done three projects for me over 20 years and each time I was completely satisfied. They work fast, are straight forward and easy to work with. They take pride in their work. I am an architect-owner. They built my house for me, high quality work throughout. Project costs were $20K, $2.2M and $100K respectively. I would hire them again without reservations!.
