### Reviews

**★★★★★ — Mitzi Frieling, Aug. 2019**

> Ben and all the guys at Duell are fabulous.  They were so kind, understanding, easy to talk to (I consider all of them my friends now), willing to talk through different ways of doing things, willing to listen to my reasoning, always willing to explain what they were doing, etc...  overall - I could not be happier with the work they did for us.  The level of professionalism this company brings is top notch, and the quality is unbeatable.

**★★★★★ — HU-463568464, July 2019**

> We hired Duell Constrution for a whole house remodel.  It was such a joy to work with their team.  They were always friendly and kind.  Our neighbors even mentioned how nice it was to hear them laughing and singing as they worked.  As most house projects go, there were unexpected hurdles along the way, but Duell construction was very good at helping us navigate those challenges.  They were also very accommodating to changes we needed to make along the way to the original plan.  We would highly recommend working with them and hope to work with them in the future if we have any future remodeling needs.

**★★★★★ — koletrae, Oct. 2018**

> I would recommend Duell Construction to everyone. What an amazing experience. No one likes to go thru a renovation project, but Ben and his crew made it pleasant. They worked with us and sincerely cared about getting it right. They were respectful, professional, and good people. It’s Duell Construction for our next project. We can’t go wrong.

**★★★★★ — Anna Binder, Oct. 2018**

> If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. Ben and his entire crew were great to work with. He turned a sorely neglected 1930 office building into a beautifully stunning space that I'm incredibly proud to work in. When I bought the building, I had a vision for what I hoped the end result could look like, but really had no idea how to accomplish it. From Day 1 and throughout the whole project the guys were able to walk me through the details, giving quality recommendations, and always kept our budget in mind. They even allowed us to put some sweat equity into the building in order to save some funds and ultimately come in under budget. These guys are about as trustworthy as they come and I would certainly hire them for any future projects.

**★★★★★ — AsterHouse Design, LLC, June 2018**

> We have the opportunity to work with Duell Construction regularly. They are very skilled at executing a design plan and great at communication. We highly recommend!

**★★★★★ — sandikramos, March 2018**

> We cannot say enough good things about Ben and his team. From start to finish they were professional, courteous, respectful, and did excellent work. It's clear that they have a strong work ethic and take pride in their craftsmanship. Their ability to resolve unforeseen problems with our 1950's home remodel in an efficient and cost-effective way was greatly appreciated. They made everything work within budget without sacrificing the quality of work. As an added bonus, all of the team members we met were friendly and we enjoyed having them in our home. We would highly recommend them (and already have) for anyone's remodel project!

**★★★★★ — Audrey Armstrong, Jan. 2018**

> Duell Construction does excellent work. They pay attention to details and even keep the work area clean. All the guys were fun to work with and very trustworthy.

**★★★★★ — Trisha, May 2017**

> Ben and his crew converted a bedroom into a bathroom in our house (built in 1900).  Their communication with us throughout the project was excellent, as was their attention to detail, flexibility, and ability to complete the project in a timely manner.  Despite some surprises with the structure of our old house that required additional labor and materials, they completed the project close to budget.  In addition, Ben and his team are friendly and were enjoyable to interact with.

**★★★★★ — Stacey, April 2017**

> Duell Construction recently did a large remodel of our home.  We were more than thrilled with him and his team.  The work was top notch and the service was wonderful.   I have recommended Duell Construction to many people and will continue to do so.

**★★★★★ — nphendricks, April 2017**

> Duell Construction remodeled our kitchen and did a fantastic job. All the workers were professional and respectful. They pay attention to detail and make sure it is done right. They also worked with us to figure out some custom shelving to match our old home. Another positive is that there were no surprises when the final bill came. I will definitely use them in the future!

**★★★★★ — Von Bolton, April 2017**

> Ben and Aaron were the best from day 1.  Their bid was very competitive and we chose them based on personal meeting with them.  Very helpful with basic bathroom concept and layout, but realized we had specific designs and products we wanted and had already chosen.  Once remodel began, the whole crew was very professional and very clean.  Always used carpet runners and drop clothes and work area was picked up nightly before the crew left.  Project finished on budget and final work product was beyond what we expected.  Would absolutely recommend them and have Duell construction do other projects in our home.

**★★★★★ — Eric Williams, Dec. 2016**

> Ben's team at Duell Construction did a great job on our addition to our 2 story 100+ year old home. He works well with homeowners (and around our kids), kept the project moving, and produced a great result. Ben has calm, professional demeanor, brings experience working on older homes, practical suggestions, good supplier/sub manager, and sets realistic budget and timeline expectations. Thanks Ben!
