### Reviews

**★★★★★ — annichka7, Nov. 2020**

> Rich Flannigan is our favorite local general contractor. A few years ago, he helped realize our vision of a kitchen and bathroom remodel. Our style is modern and cozy. We had a very smooth process in brainstorming our ideas and being directed by Rich to stay within our price range and using the best materials for durability, quality, and esthetics.
>
> Rich gives out a very accurate estimate and takes a humble cut for his involvement. He is also a skilled craftsman, himself, so to save costs in some places, he is able to do some labor himself (ie laying tile and backsplash).
>
> Rich is also very personable and a good human being; and we trust him with all our projects. We will be turning to him for our next project: basement remodel.
>
> Thank you, Rich. You have given us a gift that keeps on giving, years later!
>
> Anna & Chris Bissell

**★★★★★ — Sarah Swaty, Sept. 2019**

> We hired Rich/Applied Construction Concepts for a renovation project (a veterinary clinic), and he did an excellent job! He was thorough, timely, and stayed in good communication during the course of the project. He was also flexible and willing to work with volunteers and donated supplies, as we are a nonprofit organization. I really can't recommend him enough.

**★★★★★ — Karen Gilley, Sept. 2019**

> Rich Flanagan did a great job on adding stairs to our deck!  Easy to work with, very pleasant.  Also added shelves to master bedroom closet in a timely manner!

**Comment from Applied Construction Concepts:**

> Thank you for your awesome review. It was a joy to work for you.

**★★★★★ — HU-304066347, Sept. 2019**

> We hired this company to complete a master bath remodel for us. The job was done timely and with excellent workmanship. We would use them again.

**★★★★★ — LeAnn Thieman, Sept. 2019**

> Rich Flanagan built us a beautiful pergola for our patio. He was a perfectionist and a great listener as we shared our ideas, then he added his expertise to make it even better, at a reasonable cost. He met every deadline, plus he's fun and an all-around great trustworthy honorable man.

**Comment from Applied Construction Concepts:**

> Thanks for the wonderful review Leann. It was fun working with you.

**★★★★★ — William Miles, Sept. 2019**

> Rich did excellent work installing wood floors in our living, dining and den areas. He was meticulous and we were very pleased.

**★★★★★ — Kathy Stephen, Sept. 2019**

> Applied Construction has done several projects for us. They have finished basements in two of our homes, installed hardwood flooring, put in a tile backsplash and completely gutted and refinished our master bathroom. I have been completely satisfied with the quality of work and professionalism of the workers. The owner, Rich Flanagan, has a great eye for design, makes appropriate suggestions and charges a fair price. I especially appreciate that the work site is cleaned up each day as the project progresses.

**★★★★★ — David Linehan, Sept. 2019**

> Great Job Rich!  The wall looks great!
>
> I hired Applied Construction to repair a wall in which the sheetrock had to be torn down in order to fix the main electical feed to my house that a cable complany drilled into.  The fix required several appointments..sheetrock, mud, sand, mud... paint, ect..  The wall looks great..  Rich was prompt in meeting me for all appointments, very clean, and matched the texture and the paint!!  And his price was very competative!
>
> I highly recommend Applied Construction for any of your household construction needs.

**★★★★★ — Dean Flook, Sept. 2019**

> In 2015 I hired Applied Construction Concepts to help renovated a modular home that I owned in Laporte.  Rich removed and installed a new skirt, removed and built a new deck, completed roof and gutter work, painted the building and completed other small projects including garage work, fencing and soffit repairs.  Rich Flannigan did a great job for me.  At times he had to figure out construction problems and engineer "fixes" to make things work.  He is a good man that I trusted.  I would recommend him to anyone.

> Rich Flanagan is a true professional.....arrived in a timely manner, did a superb job replacing the tub and tile in my rental home and cleaned up mess when he was finished.  His pricing was very competitive and I would not hesitate to contact him again for future repairs/replacements.

**★★★★★ — Nancy Mace, Sept. 2019**

> I hired Rich for multiple jobs at my home, from exterior painting to interior painting and handyman projects. Each job was fairly priced, completed on time and exceeded my expectations. Rich prides himself on work quality and I found him to be very professional. I highly recommend Applied Construction Concepts.

**★★★★★ — Mike Thorsrud, Sept. 2019**

> I hired Rich Flanagan to remodel roughly 500 sq. feet in the basement of my home.  He came in as scheduled, did the job (well!), and got out as promised.  What more can you ask??
