### Featured Review

**★★★★★ — Lorie Hungate, March 2020**

> Darren worked both quickly, professionally.  He provided the highest quality of work.
> I would definitely recommend Darren for your next project.

### All 6 reviews

**★★★★★ — Tammy Lusciatti, March 2024**

> I can't recommend Keen Construction enough...  I needed to move walls & doors to create a larger primary bedroom closet with W/D hookup from 3 smaller closets (prior to moving into our new house).  I'm skeptical of choosing a company off the internet so I read all of the reviews I could find about Keen Construction and chose them because there were NO bad reviews (not even one I could find).
>
> We met the next day (THU) at the house to discuss details so Darren could provide an estimate which arrived via email later that day.  I was waiting until Monday to contact Darren and tell him we wanted to move forward with the project but Darren reached out that Sunday that they could start the project THE NEXT DAY since we didn't require any permits, etc.  We didn't have time to clear out the 3 closets so Darren and Mark did it for us on Monday.
>
> I'm still amazed at how smoothly everything went and how quickly they were able to complete the project.  After taping and skimming the closet and 2 rooms (where doors/walls were moved), I had them paint the closet and leave the 2 rooms unpainted since we haven't yet decided on our colors - getting a refund for that work.  The great thing is that the rooms require no prep and we can simply paint them as soon as we make our decision.
>
> I will definitely be calling Darren for our other construction projects AFTER we move in... I chatted with Mark one day during construction about our upcoming needs and am very excited that I will NOT need to search the internet and "take my chances" in the future.  If you are searching for a contractor, please (at a minimum) let Darren provide an estimate!!

**★★★★★ — Barb, July 2020**

> I hired Darren for my two bathroom remodels. Both projects were completed on time and on budget. He was very reliable and honest and both projects exceeded my expectations.  A very good overall experience.

**★★★★★ — Jessi U, July 2020**

> Could not be happier! I had Darren install floors - he was able to come by quickly and provide an estimate along with a list of supplies to purchase. From there the install was scheduled for the following week and he was able to get the floors installed in a day. I have him coming back to install/fix some more stuff around the house!

**★★★★★ — Jennifer Spriesch, March 2020**

> Darren & Mark are a pleasure to work with. We have used them for 3 different projects. They have reached each of our expectations with each project. We will continue to use Keen Enterprises , Inc in the future as well for any of our projects.

**★★★★★ — HU-680138353, March 2020**

> Very affordable, fast, and quality work. I was very pleased with my whole experience getting my new floors installed. He even did a good job cleaning up after.
