We secured three quotes for a major home project (700sf addition with a total kitchen/ dining room remodel). Immediately, Scott Penney outshone the competitors by providing realistic pricing and asking insightful questions about our plans and project execution that no one else thought to mention. Once hired, Scott and his family team proved to be diligent, communicative, hardworking, skilled, and completely trustworthy. When any challenges arose (as they do), they were forthright in their consultations with us, always providing an array of potential solutions. We chose to remain living in our home while the addition and renovations were underway and the Penneys made extraordinary efforts to ensure that my family was as comfortable as possible. Our project was completed in late January 2024. Scott and his sons worked extra hard to finish kitchen cabinet and appliance installations so that we could cook a real holiday meal in December. Throughout the process, all of the guys’ kindness and well developed senses of humor made them a complete pleasure to work with. I cannot recommend these folks highly enough.
