### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — Jason Simpson, Feb. 2021**

> Writing to give my highest recommendation for BCB. We just took a Portland cape and did the upstairs double dormers, new bathroom, all new heating and windows, and first floor addition off the back of the house all with a family of four living inside the entire time! Josh and his crew were professional, hard working, responsive, caring and flexible. You couldn’t ask for a better experience! The project was a life changer for us thanks to their guidance and execution.

**★★★★★ — HU-772227408, Jan. 2021**

> We were VERY satisfied with Big Country Built!
> I highly recommend BCB to any homeowner looking for a job done right. Thankful to have met Josh and his crew!

**★★★★★ — Daniel Faires, Jan. 2021**

> Josh and his team were professional, transparent, hard-working and highly skilled. From concept to completion and a lot of troubleshooting along the way, Big Country Built worked through bad weather and some “designer surprises” to maintain our timeline and keep the client happy! Their pricing was fair based on the scope of the project.  Josh is an honest person, a family man, and delight to be around + his construction acumen is top notch.  I would definitely recommend Big Country Built and would hire them again.

**★★★★★ — Meghan Faulkner, Jan. 2021**

> I have worked with Big County Builders on a couple projects and trust not only the integrity of how the business is run, but also the innovative thought that goes into the project. Josh not only worries about execution, but also thinks about design, logistics, cosmetic and aesthetics. This is important to me. I don't always have the know how, but have the idea of what I want and Josh always seems to find a way to fit the design of what I am thinking. He asks the right questions and talks about the important things.

> He does great work and would always recommend him!
