Great blend of intuitive intellect, engineering, and attention to detail.
Ben has worked on apartment above a garage that we are finishing. He has torn down some walls, reframed, built an outside set of stairs, and moved some windows. I have nothing but good to say about his professionalism and work ethic. He comes when he says and finishes in a timely manner. His craftsmanship is impeccable. My son is a structural engineer and he commented that Ben’s work is solid. I highly recommend him.
Ben was great to work with on our remodel! He was communicative throughout the project, helpful with design ideas, kept the workspace tidy, and delivered a really high quality final product. Won’t be our last project with him. Highly recommend!
Ben was amazing from the very start to the end. His knowledge of craftsman carpentry is unmatched. He was very helpful with solid decision making. We appreciated his attention to detail and the quality of his work.
"From start to finish, Daybreak Building Co. was a pleasure to work with because Ben was organized, thorough and professional. His communication was consistently excellent. He built a solid free-standing firewood shed according to our mutual specifications and design with great attention to detail and quality joinery. I give him my highest recommendation without hesitation.”
