Erik Block Design Build LLC

We have supplied material for several Erik Block Design Build projects, and their work is first-rate. I recommend Block Design | Build for those seeking quality craftsmanship.

Zola has worked very hard to remedy several issues on this project to ensure customer satisfaction, and we are currently reproducing units that were not manufactured according to Erik's wishes- at no cost. The first attempt to remedy this issue unfortunately did not resolve the issues completely, but we are now manufacturing a second set which will be air shipped out to the job asap, and we have already expedited this production to the full extent possible. Erik has made repeated and passionate threats to our staff via telephone if we do not fly out a technician from Colorado to latch in a fully-assembled sash, which is a ten-minute process and not something that is covered by warranty.

This is a very professional company -- meeting and exceeding expectations. They showed up every day, cleaned up at the end of the day, and kept me informed along the way. And they were on-budget with very few extras, so their estimates were reliable and accurate.

The Block brothers Erik & Haldan and their team did a great job on my carriage house barn conversion. They were super to work with and have excellent attention to even the smallest details. They helped my pull all my design ideas and materials into an end result that has a great feel and flow. I could not have achieved this without their design expertise, build experience and craftsmanship.

Erik and his team are consummate professionals. Their attention to detail, passion, experience, craftsmanship, creativity and customer focused satisfaction and service are first rate. I highly recommend Erik Block Design Build.

Erik Block Design refurbished my kitchen and eat in area. They designed, built, and installed the areas with total professionalism. Neat and efficient workmanship at all levels. Creative design was a factor that they fulfilled. Highly recommend.

We live in a finely crafted reproduction 18th century Saltbox. At the rear, in a concession to modern times we have a window wall of French Doors. The same applies to a sunroom. The windows and doors installed when the house was built 20 years ago were shot. Erik Block recommended a high end window and door product by Marvin that would fit in and give us much better insulative properties and UV protection. All the trim had to be removed and replaced and care had to be taken not to damage interior wood floors and trim. Erik gave us excellent advice and his crew did an outstanding job. We couldn't be more pleased. The project was completed in a timely fashion and the work site was always left neat at end of day. I highly recommend Erik Block Design Build.

Erik runs a professional operation. His crew is also top notch. The work I have experienced on my properties, friends properties and as home inspector is always well done. I would, and have, recomended him for remodeling and new construction projects. Recently, his creative ideas for melding a new kitchen into an antique home were complimented by many. I enjoy Erik's interest in energy efficient new costruction and new building methods as well as preserving the past. Joe DeLaurentis Tiger Building Inspections Madison, CT

Erik Block Design Build provided extensive remodeling, maintenance, and upgrading services for my 16 acre, 100+ year old classic Connecticut home over a period of several years. The work was always provided on a prompt. professional, and economical basis. My family and I have enjoyed working with the Block team. I would unconditionally recommend this company to anyone seeking a high quality general contractor.

Erik and his team of professionals are wonderful to work with and excellent at designing, remodeling and general contracting. We have used them for several projects over the years, most recently for a heating system upgrade. They were very respectful of our budget and our timeline. They brought in all the trades needed to complete the job and were even willing to quote and discuss taking a larger project and breaking it into two phases to help with our budget constraints. The work is impeccable. They are all courteous and professional and left the job site clean and complete. Erik is very responsive and easy to get a hold of via email or phone. Great experiences working with them! I would highly recommend them.

We chose Erik Block Design Build because we had seen other projects they had worked on,. and because of their reputation in the community. We were not disappointed. On the contrary, we could not be happier with the outcome and we miss having them around! They are extremely knowledgable, competent, kind, considerate, fun, trustworthy and very smart. There is nothing they cannot do, and they can figure out how to get around any and all obstacles. Their contractors are all, without exception, as competent and reliable as the Block brothers. The Block brothers are very good about communicating, keeping the customer updated about any changes or delays, and they stick to the budget down to the penny. They could not have worked harder or more steadily, and the project was completed in the time period they anticipated. There is nothing we would have done differently. We will work with Erik Block Design Build on every project in our house from now on. Integrity is an adjective that fits them perfectly.

Drywall and painting were subcontracted and fairly well done and well cleaned when finished. However it wasn't always clear when the subs showed up vs. when they were supposed to. For example one, day they didn't show up until late morning and were still there at 10 pm ( past our bedtime!) Erik did his best to keep to schedule, but some things he had no control over. He and his crew were friendly and polite. One thing that made a difference in this project was Erik's wife, Abbigail who volunteered to help us select paint colors which made a huge difference in the overall outcome
