HARDING CONSTRUCTION

Paul Harding is the home maintenance person that we use. He put new material on the shed roof but it is still leaking so now they are thinking it is coming through the siding because the house was built in the 1940's. It is really hard to identify. Harding Construction is great. We would totally recommend him to anybody. The cost of the roof repair was $1,000 and the deck was about $5,000. They had to actually raise the deck in the garage and cut a new hole for the door. It was pretty extensive; it was not just putting a deck on the house. It was extensive remodeling of the space and not just remodeling the space but taking a look at what the setup was initially and having that vision of how to make it more accessible. It came out great and it was money well spent. He is our go to guy for pretty much anything. We will call him for small things to see whom we should use. He is a young guy but has done a lot of work on really big homes. He is diligent, ethical and professional. He knows his stuff. His price is extremely reasonable. We have used him a couple of times.

We needed a good woodworking contractor and it's too bad now, but we didn't get one with this company. This Contractor initially said his company could finish both of our projects within roughly 5 days. That didn't happen, but then we insisted they rework both our garage and our dormers, after my Wife, Son and I discovered numerous large gaps in nearly every joint this contractor built, after he said he had completed both jobs. For example, he initially left our garage's flying roof rafters gapped upto an INCH at the roof's peak. It was like-wise with our home's dormers. We had to have the contractor rework both our garage and our home's dormer, with a cosmetic fix, to prevent this company from doing anymore damage, as opposed to tearing down his first attempt to complete PROFESSIONAL work. By the time this contractor finished the work to our near complete dissatisfaction, he and we, were happy his company would not return. To our absolute disbelief, the majority of angle cuts he, or his helpers, made on nearly every piece of wood they cut, were curved. All we can imagine is, the person who was cutting the individual wooden planks had no idea how to use a circular saw, or, simply didn't care. PS: though we can't prove it, we also found out after his company left, that we were missing two tools; a brand new power hand tool and a 24 foot extension ladder. Fortunately, we shot dozens of digital photographs of his initial work.

The owner is also in charge of his crew. He is onsite through the job. They were a good company. It was done on time and budget. I didn?t have any problems with them.

Paul ran this project from start to finish and made absolutely sure that everything was done to perfection. He is an excellent carpenter/builder and made sure that everything was done correctly.
