We deliberately sought out a larger contractor with a stellar reputation. Ethan was recommended by our architect and impressed us from the beginning. His proposal was the most professional and easiest to understand. We felt that we truly understood what he’d provide and what he would not. He visited the job site every day and made sure that the house was kept as clean as possible because we were living there. We believe the work was high quality and are happy with the results. We’d definitely work with Ethan again on future projects. **★★★★★ — Matt McCabe, Jan. 2019** > As we began planning our renovation project, we wanted a contractor that we could fully trust with every detail of our project, provide guidance when needed and look out for our best interests. > We hired Ethan/Schoss Construction to renovate 90% of our house and add a two story expansion with a finished basement. A major factor in selecting Ethan was his reputation for doing outstanding work. Based on our experience, he lived up to his reputation, without exception. > He takes great personal pride in his work. Ethan actively manages his network of sub-contractors to ensure his high quality standards are met. There was never a difference between our expectations and what Ethan’s team delivered. Never. > Ethan is always available. He manages every aspect of the job. He commits 100% to ensuring the project is successful, this includes such things as: grabbing a shovel to help dig, suggesting to add detail to the master shower and interpreting three different pictures of fireplace mantels (each with a unique design aspect) to build the fireplace mantel we had envisioned. > Throughout the course of our project, there were a few phrases that Ethan would say quite often: “That’s not a problem” and “We’ll get it done”. We quickly learned that Ethan says what he means and means what he says. > We found the contractor that we had always wanted. We truly enjoyed working with Ethan, his crew and his sub-contractors. Without question, Ethan/Schoss Construction will be who we use for all our future projects. **★★★★★ — Gail Mooney, Jan. 2019** > Ethan Schoss was the first contractor of four that my husband and I interviewed for this project. Although all were highly recommended, and all seemed very capable, there was no doubt in my mind after that first interview that we were going to hire Ethan. It was the perfect decision for us. He is a straight shooter and knows this business very well. This was the first project of this kind that my husband and I undertook. I came to depend on Ethan and his crew to do the right thing. If I made a suggestion that was a little outside the box he would tell me why (or why not) it could or couldn't be done. He kept us on schedule. If we were lost as to what came next he would whip out a catalog or pictures or give us phone contacts to help us along. When I couldn't decide on something like a trim he would show me all my options, in all price ranges. Nothing was left to chance. Everyone who has visited us since the project was finished has commented on the craftmanship. And he is always available to follow up on any questions we have. Hiring Schoss Construction was the perfect decision for our needs and I would hire him again in a heartbeat. Thank you, Ethan, and everyone at Schoss Construction. **★★★★★ — Jay McAndrew, Dec. 2018** > Ethan and Schoss Construction were great to work with. Ethan differentiated himself from the start as he brought ideas to us regarding our project. He and his team do great work and they are all very responsive. I will recommend Ethan in the future and will use him again. **★★★★★ — Greg Irwin, Jan. 2017** > In 2016, we hired Ethan for the renovation of our kitchen, mud room and family room. Ethan was recommended by our architect, and we interviewed him among several others. We had a vision for what we wanted, but also needed guidance and direction. We love the work that he did, and his suggestions for change significantly enhanced our project. Ethan walked us through every decision, so we were able to make the right choices for what we were looking for. Overall the project was done quickly and within our budget. Most importantly, we love the work and feel like we’re living in a new home. We recommend Ethan and his team to all our friends. **★★★★★ — kathymcd12345, Sept. 2016** > Ethan completed two renovations on our home. The first was a kitchen renovation/expansion and addition of a bedroom. The second renovation, completed several years later, was a much larger total home renovation. Ethan and his team were always professional, respectful and neat. The work completed was of the highest quality and Ethan does not cut a corner on anything. We had complete confidence in Ethan throughout both renovations. The end result was a beautiful home, built to exacting standards of the highest quality. I highly recommend Ethan! **★★★★★ — pamelamagee, Sept. 2016** > We did a large renovation on our home and found Ethan and his team to be wonderful to work with. They were prompt and courteous, when he said they would be there, they were. I would highly recommend him and his crew to anyone. They are trustworthy and true craftsmen. He was good about recommendations on what is worth spending extra money on and where to save it when it counted. I would definitely hire him again. **★★★★★ — maddytaken, Sept. 2016** > We had a major remodel done to our old split level home . Ethan and his team at Schoss construction did an outstanding job .

Truly professional, reliable, trustworthy and extremely knowledgeable. The work is top quality and close attention is given to every possible detail. Communication throughout the process was superb and even though the project is complete, we still receive help anytime it is needed. We are thrilled with our new home! **★★★★★ — ellendevin, Aug. 2016** > I have loved working with Ethan. He has done 3 major projects for us. His work is impeccable and his workman are kind and respectful. I would gladly work with him again. **★★★★★ — incubite21, May 2016** > This company is top notch.
