> Every project I've worked with John on, he has personally managed the project. That means he is out there ensuring everything goes smoothly. And his demand for excellence pays off. He absolutely transforms the spaces he works on.
>
> If you are serious, or even curious about working with Straight and Level Construction, then you better act fast. John only takes on a few projects per year since he personally manages them.
>
> John Martin has been running Straight and Level Construction for over a decade. He has been the President and leader of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). He is the go to resource for many remodelers in Austin. I really enjoy working with John, and you will too.

**★★★★★ — Family Spaces, Feb. 2014**

> What an outstanding contractor, idea and design person, and business person.  The absolute best work ethic, trustworthiness, excellent follow-through, total attention to detail, demands perfection from his subs, a total pleasure to work with.
>
> Remodeling is so much more difficult than building, and John has solved every problem seamlessly.  He has transformed our house, and we are delighted.  Wouldn't consider working with any other contractor in Austin.
