Mark and Harold from HMB built a beautiful garage for us. The workmanship is excellent, and they were fun and easy to work with. They were also very patient as we changed our minds about what we wanted when they were partway through. We are very pleased with the results, and I would definitely hire them again for a future project.
Mark and his team recently did some work at our home to repair some rot and replace the damaged floor with new tile. Mark was pleasant, fair, timely, and stuck to the original estimate. My wife and kids enjoyed having him in the house. There was no drama. We could not have been happier!
From the first day of meeting and setting up our priorities and budget with Mark Barchard we knew we made the right choice. He carefully listening how we wanted to transform our small, 1967 vintage kitchen into a workable space with adding in natural light and a dining space for more than 4 people. The counters were extremely inadequate for our family and every family gathering came with untold stress and discomfort. Mark, Harold and Kevin - the key members of HMB crew - made the old kitchen into a magazine-like living experience. Several months after completion and we still sit and admire the work and care that HMB and all their contracted vendors and workers too (cabinet provider, electrician, plumber and even roofers). We appreciated if there was an issue with another area of the home, Mark 'had a guy.' We highly recommend HMB Group for large and small jobs - they are our go-to guys for sure! The dark and ugly images are obviously the 'before pics.'
Replaced an existing internal door with a vintage french door I got at an antique shop. Required rebuilding the entire door jam to accommodate the door. Great work it turned out to be exactly what I wanted.
Great work - Mark and crew replaced a small side porch with composite decking materials. Kept in touch through out the whole planning stage, work was done beautifully and efficiently. Would hire again.
