J. H Construction Company owner Jay Chen and his crew worked incredibly hard to swiftly and successfully build the front addition to our house. When problems came up, he fixed them. He established a good working relationship with the building inspector and always did whatever was required. His company did the framing, drywall, window and door installation, electrical and exterior cladding (Hardiboard - not easy to work with). He is also skilled in interior finishing, but we prefer to do that type of work ourselves. We feel fortunate that J.H Construction took our project on and saw it through.

Hiring The Reno Coach, Reiner Hoyer, was the best decision we made when deciding to add a one story addition to the front of our house. Reiner's mission statement is to 'keep the wheels turning' on your project, no matter what bumps you hit along the way. In our case some of the bumps included successfully representing us before the Committee of Adjustment after the City rejected our permit application, saving us from signing a low-ball contract containing sneaky clauses that likely would have vastly increased the final price, finding quality replacement contractors when necessary, keeping an eye on the job to stop most mistakes from happening and to make sure that mistakes that couldn't be stopped got fixed, and in general smoothing the troubled waters stirred up when you try to build something of your own in this crazy city with its super-heated construction market and incomprehensible regulations. Hiring Reiner was a great investment for us. We saved money. We avoided grief.

Besides being a great contractor, Tony Braga is also a great guy, an honest straightforward problem solver who truly cares about his clients as well as the quality of his work. If you are lucky enough to have Tony as your contractor, you are very lucky indeed. For example, when our corroded water pipe finally gave out (there was almost nothing left of it other than the rust) Tony promised that we would have water that night. As nightfall approached we thought it unlikely that he would be able to help us after all and then suddenly he was there on our back porch (we had no front steps at that point) with his crew and the equipment he needed to give us hot and cold running water for the night. The next day he put in a new copper water pipe and connected it to the city feed without needing to be asked, all because he felt it was the right thing to do. Great guy, great work, great experience.

We are using them for our design and permit application needs for our home renovation projects this summer. Alex and Sarah are completely professional, fast, efficient and accurate. Cadaxx has never let us down.
