We recently hired Ross construction to renovate our kitchen, and I couldn’t be more impressed with their work! From start to finish, they were incredibly professional and kept me informed every step of the way. They showed up on time every day and worked diligently to ensure the project stayed on schedule.
What stood out to me most was their honesty—there were no hidden costs or surprises, and they made sure to discuss any changes or adjustments before moving forward. The quality of the work was exceptional, and the finished kitchen exceeded our expectations.
We would definitely hire them again for any future projects and highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, trustworthy contractors. A great experience all around!
