Worked with Hugo in a kitchen installation and he’s work and knowledge ia outstanding would definitely recommend Hugo again !
I used Hugo to restore our lower level after Hurricane Ida… about 2500 square feet which included locating antique barn side, carefully preparing and properly applying… also making baseboards and Trim. Hugo personally created a custom barnside door for our Miele bar dishwasher. He custom made cabinetry( barnside) for beverage refrigerator in gym. His guys also assisted in installing fitness equipment. A small hallway was attractively done in shiplap.Clisets were custom built. Overall… a lot of varied detailed work… fabulously executed at a fair price. He was not interested in price gouging and worked with me . Hugo also rebuilt a medium size foot bridge (over stream)out of top grade red cedar replacing a 50 year decaying structure. I highly recommend Hugo and his firm.
Very honest worked and does great work. At times his communication hinders his job as there were two instances we had made an appointment for him to do work but he didn't show up or notify us that he needed to reschedule.
