**★★★★★ — Katie Nickerson, March 2022**

> We love our newly renovated home by Saltbox Architecture! Alan did an amazing job designing our new addition, bathrooms, and renovated kitchen, filling our home with light and beautiful fixtures, cabinets, and appliances. He worked closely with us on the design, interior choices, and exterior fixtures, promptly answering our questions and addressing any concerns, and the end result is lovely inside and out. We highly recommend Saltbox for their beautiful architectural design, excellent customer service, and keen attention to detail, and would work with them again.

**★★★★★ — FineCraft Contractors, Design + Build, Feb. 2019**

> If we could rate higher we would. What a great company. Kevin has been professional, caring and steadfast since the day we met him. Aside from being skilled in their profession, they are very personable and approachable. This is important for a builder because it allows for a wonderful team spirit and collaboration that in turn results in a successful project and happy homeowners. Saltbox, it's been a pleasure working with you. We look forward to more opportunities to create together!

**★★★★★ — Touchstone Remodelers, LLC, April 2016**

> Our remodeling company has completed several projects with Saltbox over the past few years. The owners, Kevin and Alan, have consistently provided exceptional designs, excellent working drawings, have been creative and available whenever faced with construction challenges from the field crew and have always maintained cooperative relationships with our mutual clients and with sub-contractors.

> I recommend them highly and would welcome the opportunity to work with their team again.
