Basement reno

Hired Dowling Construction to remove a telepost in the center of our basement. His expertise and knowledge were second to none, and he was incredibly personable throughout the whole experience. He even found us some cost savings in material we did not expect! We would definitely hire again in the future.

Exceeded my expectations and did what others couldn’t

Dowling Construction replaced broken slates on my fathers home. I had concerns bout the project initially because several contractors told me they didn't think they'd be able to match the design and color to what's currently there. I was really afraid that when the project was done that you'd see two different looks/styles. Not only did Dowling Construction match the design and color perfectly, but they were able to secure copper hangers and fasteners to ensure I wouldn't have future problems.

Not only would I recommend Dowling Construction but I've already started planning my next project with them!

Thanks again for such great work.

Drainage

Billy was able to provide clear and concise diagnosis of our drainage problems. We had ten window wells on an apartment complex that were all having issues. The crew came in were kind and courteous to tenants. They were extremely safety conscious fencing the area off at night. Drainage problems solved with no more wet basements.

$2,500,000.00
