Michael Krause and his son Dan were hired to remodel my kitchen demo, remove knee walls, and one main wall. Install custom cabinets I purchased from another company along with porcelain flooring. The installation was OK however there were many things with respect to attention to detail left unfinished Plumbing Connections to my dishwasher left lose and almost flooded my house and not secured to the cabinets or counter top. Also sharp long wood screws left protruding inside cabinets that my spouse almost cut her hand. Had to re-grout areas of tile flooring that were not filled in properly to begin with the later became an issue after several months post install. Pot lights that were left uninstalled and hanging from the ceiling when I asked about finishing Michael stated he just gave up and left them rather than provide a solution. In all fairness I did call Michael to fix he called me back next day I called back but never heard from Krause again. Not using this contractor again.

Mike Krause and his son Dan removed my old 20 foot wooden deck and replaced it with a beautiful 30 foot trex deck with lights and steps. They did an excellent job and finished in a short time. This is was the fourth time. I hired Mike Krause.

Michael was helpful and did a great job of keeping informed on everything from permitting to timing on completion of the work. My only regret was not making my deck he built from the ground up bigger. He and his son were great to work with as well as his wife. I would recommend him for any home projects.

Mike's work speaks for itself. Well done with attention to detail. Professional and personable. Easy to speak to. For the price, I don't think you could find a better contractor. He will definitely be on my list for any of my future projects. AAA+

Mike did a great job on his timeliness of estimate to getting me on the schedule and even being honest about wood prices up front. I received a professional contract with his information and license and felt confident for him to start. He redid my huge deck added my railings back on and redid my steps and itâ s beautiful! He kept in communication, did their job, cleaned up and finished before his estimated complete date! We are thrilled and would highly recommend him!!

Mike was totally professional, respectful, reliable, clean, methodical, personable, exceptional work ethic, prompt, and on time. He remodeled a bedroom, installed a new steel door in our basement, and installed a new steel front door and storm door. Exceptional work. Will continue to hire Mike for any other projects and highly recommend him to others. We just can't say enough good things about Mike.

Mike just completed a total half-bath renovation for us and it is beautiful. Mike was always professional (from demeanor to communication to written documents), arrived when he said he would and completed the renovation on schedule (no disappearing for days like some other contractors in the past). He is a pleasure to work with and we have already planned another bath renovation.

Mike was remarkable to work with, respectful, sat down w/us to talk about changes and concerns whenever we needed! His estimate was what we expected and worked w/ us on what we purchased and we came in under estimate ... I have already recommended him to two people !! A good experience !!!
