**★★★★★ — Michael shanahan, April 2021**

> We give MacGyver Development our highest possible rating.  They provide excellent service at fair rates, and will not only handle the agreed upon job quickly and professionally, but will often include other ancillary work at little or no extra charge.  Their team is highly qualified and their work is exemplary.  I highly recommend MacGyver to anyone in need of their services.

**Comment from MacGyver Development:**

> We loved working on your projects Mike!  Your kitchen was an exciting challenge in so many ways and is by far still one of our favorites.  Thank you for your kind words and sharing your experiences!

**★★★★★ — Keri Rudsell, April 2021**

> MacGyver development is the best out there. They are the most professional and meticulous crew.  They show up every day and work hard.  They have done several projects for us over the years and we have been thrilled with every job. We would recommend them 100%.

**Comment from MacGyver Development:**

> We are so fortunate you have entrusted us with all of your projects in both homes thru the years Keri!  We're so happy to hear you and your family are thrilled with our work and we really appreciate you taking the time to post your experiences with us.   :)

**★★★★★ — HU-365528480, Feb. 2021**

> Our first project was a complete kitchen remodel. I am not a good candidate for renovation. I hate the noise, disruption and chaos. We waited 20 years to start a remodeling project. MacGyver was recommended to us by friends and they are amazing. They are fastidious in their attention to detail and cleanliness. They provide options that I never knew existed. They keep me appraised of their work every step of the way. We absolutely love our new kitchen...in fact, MacGyver has now remodeled our kitchen, entry, 1/2 bath, spare bath and now they're completing our master bath. Honestly, I can't say enough positive things about them. I trust them in my house, even when I am not home. I trust their expertise and their guidance. These are the people you want guiding your next project.

**Comment from MacGyver Development:**

> Thank you greatly from all of us for your wonderful review!   We are extremely fortunate to have clients like you and love your appreciation for us!   All of us here at MacGyver feel blessed to have been able to complete your home upgrades.  You are and outstanding customer too!  You have made our work so much easier with your organization and efficiency with customer responsible fixture and material acquisitions.  We look forward to our next adventure, hopefully not with cast iron drainage thou!  Lol...

**★★★★★ — HU-850876555, Dec. 2020**

> We have had several projects with MacGyver and we couldn’t be any happier.  The projects included indoor and outdoor changes.  The creative ideas, the attention to details and friendliness of the tradesmen have been outstanding.  We have had large and small projects and each one has had extreme focus to delivery on time and to our specifications.
>
> We have complete trust and faith in MacGyver.

**Comment from MacGyver Development:**

> Very appreciative of your kind words.  We aim to deliver on all fronts, we wont leave until your satisfied!

**★★★★★ — john banbury, Dec. 2020**

> MacGyver remodeled our deck and back room.  Enlarging the deck and winterizing the room.  Their work was exceptional and very professionally handled.  True craftsmen.  I know because I worked in the construction trades in my youth.
> John Banbury

**Comment from MacGyver Development:**

> John, Thank you for recognizing our crews talent and attention to detail.  We feel we are truly more critical than most of our clients.  If its not good enough for our own homes, its not good enough for yours and we want it done right!  It was a pleasure expanding your deck so that you could finally enjoy your backyard sanctuary.  We loved working there, it truly is a beautiful view.
