### All 3 reviews

**★★★★★ — Mara Sweeney, April 2018**

> Dennis is honest,  and helpful.  His team and subs are professional and dependable. I could not recommend him more. We've used him on 3 projects now and will continue to give him the highest recommendations.

**★★★★★ — Valerie Cavanaugh, April 2018**

> Denis Nelson is terrific. He has the best guys on his crew and they do an amazing, professional job. And Denis is fair, cost-conscious and thorough. I have done two projects with him and am really pleased with the outcomes.

**★★★★★ — Jill Taylor, March 2018**

> Dennis and his crew are the best! We could not be happier with the quality of the work, competitive pricing, skilled and friendly crew and best of all, he finished a month earlier than scheduled! He also came up with some creative solutions that made the finished product better than originally designed. His good relationships with local subcontractors also ensures they will show up when they say they will and often overlap so the job will go much faster than other builders who space out subs.
