**★★★★★ — Hartman Companies, Inc., March 2020**

> We have been working with John and Scott for a couple of years now and can not speak highly enough of our relationship. They are both very responsive, up front and easy to work with. A quality product with great service!

**★★★★★ — skihut, Feb. 2015**

> I worked with John on a remodel of my main bathroom and master bathroom. John responded to our needs and was helpful and creative in coming up with options to get what we wanted in our project. He was knowledgable about the costs and processes associated with the project. As with any remodel, unexpected glitches come up and John was great about finding the perfect solution. He, and anyone he brought into our home, was on time, clean and respectful. He is wonderful to work with and we are pleased with our new bathrooms.

  - Description: Low Basement Ceiling? Dig Your Way Out. Challenge: Transform an old, unfinished basement with 7-foot ceilings into a desirable living space by modern standards. The Solution: A low ceiling made the space difficult to enjoy so Lucid Builders created a plan to remove the existing concrete floor and dig 15-inches into the dirt. “My crew spent 2 days hauling concrete and dirt to a dumpster—330 wheelbarrows!” said John McGary. Working with an engineer, they used a technique called under-pinning to ma…
