Duddy Construction

I found Duddy Construction on Houzz, where I was struck by his glowing recommendations and by the photos of his work. I was looking to update multiple bathrooms without turning them into glitzy, outrageously expensive showpieces that would look out of place in our 19th-century house. Two bathrooms were virtual gut jobs, where Patrick and his team demolished all components and then did some clever shifting to allow for larger, more accessible frameless showers. Other work included some insulating and drywalling; installing new vanities and plumbing fixtures; constructing both a large curbed shower enclosure and a European-style curbless shower; extensive tiling; reorganizing our faulty bathroom venting arrangements; replacing wall sconces and tackling the challenge of a wall-mounted heated towel rack (which arrived with a faulty control). Throughout the project Patrick, his team, and his subcontractors were remarkably resourceful, suggesting alternative approaches to our array of tasks and readily coming up with solutions to problems that cropped up in our old house. They even went to the trouble to offer a selection of moldings to approximate the various profiles in our house. Patrick is amiable, considerate, meticulous, thorough, responsive, and quick to take the initiative when dealing with any issues, particularly with suppliers. We were never uncomfortable with any of his employees or subcontractors, who were all pleasant, polite, obviously competent, quiet, and clean in all their work. We actually missed them once the job was complete! I was amazed as we neared completion to see how short our punch list was, but was not surprised at how promptly Patrick took care of it. It's wonderful to live in such bright, attractive, modern surroundings instead of the tired bathrooms we'd grown accustomed to. I can't think of anything that I wish had turned out differently, which is my highest praise.

Having settled into our new addition I am happy to say it exceeds our expectations of home improvement. This project was our first major construction and we're delighted with how beautifully the new rooms, both from an exterior and interior view integrate with our 1920's bungalow. The workmanship is precise and the comfort and functionality exceptional. We gave thanks and made merry over the holidays as we now have the space and modernity our old house so needed.

Patrick and his crew performed above and beyond what we had hoped for! They were prompt, excellent craftsmen, trustworthy, accommodating, fair, honest and ALWAYS willing to help each other and us as the homeowners. They tackled a kitchen that had not been renovated in 25+ years, moved plumbing and electrical service, replaced a ceiling, cabinets and countertops and gave us a wonderful new living space. The vendors that were suggested by Patrick were excellent and all had good things to say about their experiences with him in the past. His price and billing methods were more than fair, and he was always prompt in returning emails and phone calls as the job progressed. I would not hesitate to call him for any future projects and would recommend Duddy Construction to anyone else who is looking for an honest business man who takes pride in a job well done.

Duddy Construction did a great job updating our living room. He replaced old crown molding with new molding. He updated the lighting in the room, and he installed a new granite floor in the fireplace. The most impressive aspect of Duddy Construction is how responsive Patrick Duddy is. Patrick is on top of each and every detail in a project. He is an excellent communicator - sending emails so that you always know what's going on (and he responds to emails in a timely fashion). The sub-contractors Patrick uses are extremely knowledgeable, reliable, trustworthy, and dependable. The whole time Duddy Construction was at our house, we felt like everyone was involved in making our project the best that it could be.

I had used Duddy Construction to do general home improvements, such as installing windows, siding, and crown molding, and to build a deck on my previous house. They did such fine work, that upon getting married and buying a new house, I didn't hesitate to call. In the new house, my husband and I hired them to replace all of our windows, create a master suite, and a covered patio, and we have more projects to come. They are top-notch, professional craftsmen, courteous in every way, and neat. When work is scheduled to begin, I hand them the keys to the house, and I don't worry about a thing. They are even considerate of our pets! Along with me, even my husband now recommends them to everyone who is about to take on a home-improvement project. We will call on them, again and again.....

Kitchen remodel. Patrick and team moved and rebuilt cabinets, worked on floor tiles, counter top, built crown moulding and stained to match current cabinets. Installed new sink and faucet. Patched drywall and worked on all the finishing details. I couldn't be happier with the final product. Great company. Highly recommend!

We are so happy with our kitchen and mud room. Patrick was on top of every aspect of the project. He was there every morning to check on the progress and make sure everything was going as planned. His work is impeccable. He was flexible when it came to changes that I wanted to make during the project. Each day when the work was completed, it was left spotless. We are thrilled with our new kitchen and can't wait to work with him on our next project

Great to work with and his team pays great attention to detail. Very flexible as we made several changes during the process.

They are able to do anything that needs doing. An all purpose general contractor. Their work ethics, beyond reproach. They will remodel any area of your home including a kitchen or stop by to install a towel bar. I have been extremely pleased with this company on every level. I have recommended to my friends and plan to use again.

My husband and I recently completed a bathroom renovation with Duddy Construction in Ardmore. We converted two full bathrooms into a powder room and large master bathroom. The result is fabulous. Patrick (the son) and his father, Patrick, were extremely professional and a joy to work with. We were given a bid for this project and the costs were right on target as was the timeline we were given.They had some wonderful ideas that we hadn't considered and the end result was more than we could have wished for. On this project they brought in 3 outside contractors: a plumbing company, a tiler, and an electrician, and they were as professional and as excellent in their work as the Duddy's were. We had previously used the Duddy's for a complete deck remodel and the installation of a sliding door onto the deck, and again, couldn't be happier with the results of their work. This is the third time we have used Duddy Construction for a home project and we would recommend them very highly to anyone.

Duddy construction provided us with a timely and very accurate quote for remodeling our kitchen. They started when they said they would and finished the project exactly on time. Each day they set up sheets to keep the construction dirt down and vacuumed up at the end of the day. What was also great about Duddy Construction is their management of the sub-contractors they brought in. They scheduled them so that they wouldn't be on top of each other and kept them on task throughout the project. Their attention to detail is excellent and we love the results of our kitchen.

"When it came time to update and remodel our bathroom we met with Patrick Duddy to talk about our different options. He provided very practical ideas and solutions for the layout of the room so that we could get the best use out of the space. We really liked his ideas. We also sought his advice for expanding our closets in the master bedroom. He came up with a very creative solution that blended so nicely with the layout of the room that it looked like it was part of the original construction. When everything was done the quality of his finish work and carpentry really exceeded our expectations. Everything was built with quality and patience. He and his father are a pleasure to work with. They are straight foward and can be trusted to do what they say they are going to do. We recommend Patrick to our friends and clients. As a side note, when it came time to sell our house we were sad to know that we couldn't bring our remodeled bathroom and expanded closets with us."
