Featured Reviews for Specialty Contractors in Wheaton

Custom Metal Home
Specialty Contractors in Wheaton
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 8, 2014
“I hired these guys to make a couple stainless bathroom counters for my bar. From beginning to end everything was great. They came out and measured the job themselves. They made sure all of the fixtures I order would fit in the custom counter tops and they delivered on time. I would recommend these guys for any stainless work you need done.”
Interior Artisan, Inc.
Specialty Contractors in Wheaton
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 7, 2015
“We were so fortunate to find Craig to restore the original entry hardware of our landmark home. Craig is extremely knowledgeable about the inner workings of intricate vintage lock mechanisms and was able to restore the gorgeous brass mortise hardware using salvaged parts he inventories in his shop as well as fashioning parts where needed. They don't make hardware like they used to and Craig was able to allow us to retain the hardware of our historic home which I am sure should last another 50 to 100 years (longer than I will!).”

“I hired Landmark to demo my kitchen and bathroom. The did an excellent job. They were there on time, did the demo and cleaned everything up. In addition, they took extra care not to damage my cabinets, appliances and tub. The also provided all the documentation to comply with my condo HOA requirements. Landmark's a great company. If I ever do another reno, I'll call them for the demo. It was a pleasure working with the Landmark team.”
