CHRIS ELPERS IS A PROFESSIONAL IN ALL ASPECTS OF HIS WORK. A CRAFTSMAN IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD. HAVING DEALT WITH MANY CONTRACTORS OVER 40 YEARS, I WOULD RANK HIM NEAR THE TOP. IN ADDITION, DURING THE WORK, WE MADE SOME DESIGN CHANGES TO THE DECK AND FOUND HIM VERY FLEXIBLE IN HIS WILLINGNESS TO WORK WITH US. COULD NOT HAVE BEEN MORE PLEASANT OR COOPERATIVE.

CHRIS DID A GREAT JOB. HE KEPT THE AREA CLEAN. HE ANSWERS MOST OF HIS CALLS ON THE SPOT. HIGH ENERGY WORKER. SHOWED UP WHEN EXPECTED. HE DID NOT BALK WHEN I WANTED SOMETHING CORRECTED.

I AM VERY HAPPY WITH HIS WORK AND WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM.

CHRIS WAS WONDERFUL TO WORK WITH. HE DID EVERYTHING HE SAID HE WOULD DO WHEN HE SAID HE WOULD DO IT AND CALLED ALMOST EVERY DAY TO KEEP US UPDATED ON HIS PROGRESS. INSTALLING A MORTIS LOCK IS A HIGHLY SPECIALIZED SKILL AND CHRIS WAS EXTREMELY CAREFUL ABOUT DOING IT CORRECTLY, EVEN TO THE POINT OF GOING TO CONSULT WITH THE EXPERT WHERE WE HAD PURCHASED THE LOCK SEVERAL TIMES. THE DOOR LOOKS FABULOUS AND I WOULD RECOMMEND CHRIS WITHOUT ANY RESERVATION. IN ADDITION, HIS PRICE WAS LESS THAN HALF OF WHAT A LARGER COMPANY HAD QUOTED.

AFTER TRYING TO FIND OTHER BIDDERS I FINALLY DECIDED TO GO WITH MR. ELPERS AND SENT BACK HIS ESTIMATE WITH MY SIGNATURE. THAT WAS ABOUT SIX WEEKS AGO.

Description of Work: MR. ELPERS ACTUALLY CAME TO MY HOUSE AND GAVE ME AN ESTIMATE.

NICE GUY, POOR OVERALL KNOWLEDGE OFCARPENTRY BUILDING SKILLS. THE DOORS WERE HUNG QUITE WELL, AND THE HARDWARE INSTALLED OK. THE FENCE IS NOT WELL BUILT, AND THE GARDEN SHED ROOF HAD THE SHINGLES PUT ON UPSIDE DOWN. CHRIS WAS WILLING TO FIX THE PROBLEMS, BUT AT A CERTAIN POINT, IT HAS BEEN EASIER TO FINISH AND FIX THE PROBLEMS OURSELVES.
