**★★★★★ — Julie Millon, Dec. 2016**

> We just finished a large 1st floor Reno project with Ryan (kitchen, mudroom, powder room, new open floor plan etc.). I cannot say enough good things about Ryan and his team. Ryan is a true professional, a visionary with great ideas and quality of work, and truly a good guy that you can trust and rely on to steer you in the right direction. Ryan's team is excellent-incredibly talented and true craftsman, and a pleasure to have in the home. We have 2 young kids (2 and 4) and a dog, and Ryan was very understanding to work around the needs of our family. Thank you Ryan! We love our updated home and I'm sure there will be many more projects together in our future.

**★★★★★ — Oasis Architecture, May 2015**

> Van Note Renovations is a singularly superb general contractor. Great attention to detail and the highest quality of work is assured in each project, with a deep knowledge of, and specialty in, historic homes and new homes in historic areas.  Excellent collaborative skills with the architect is always offered and delivered. Van Note's subcontractors are highly skilled crafts people and always seem to enjoy what they are doing.  Clients are treated wonderfully. Houzz fans, you couldn't ask for a better contractor on your project.

**★★★★★ — Merit Kitchens, MK Designs, April 2015**
