"Josef does excellent work - I would hire him again. He replaced a 15 foot railing in front of my home. He took extra care to match the color of the stain (including sending me pics from the hardware store to confirm). Scheduling took a more back and forth than expected but it was worth the wait."

"Can’t say enough good things about Osman’s. They were able to help us out when our contractor bailed last minute. Hard workers and very good at what they do. They installed cabinets in our kitchen and did an amazing job. This company takes pride in their work. I will use them again for any other projects we have coming up. No need to look for another carpenter Osman’s is the best!"

"Easy process from start to finish. They are a family business and they did an amazing job. There were multiple problems because it is an old house but all were resolved. Our master bathroom looks beautiful and all credit goes to Top Brothers, you cannot find a better construction team. We would work with them again and recommend them for any kind of project."

"Marcia was our designer, and she was wonderful to work with! Professional from the start, flexible, and always receptive and responsive. The installers were great as well, always arriving within the designated window. They were also professional and friendly! We can't wait to do our pantry and nursery closet! We will definitely be using Closet OS again! Thank you for transforming our rooms and giving us great storage space!"

"I had old timber walls removed & new ones installed. New plantiings, trees and mulch. All the workmen that Flirian & Ernin brought to my job worked very hard to give us a beautiful finished job. I would hire them again."

"Excellent job! We hired the company for few projects- custom walk-in closets, cabinets and laundry. The precision and attention to detail was exceptional. It was very nice to work with and they listened to every request we made. We were very pleased with the overall experience and will hire them again. Strongly recommend."

"Had Handyman work on a couple projects and couldn’t be happier with the results. Crew worked quickly efficiently and got the jobs done right the first time. They left the work site absolutely immaculate. It’s rare to find great workmanship and a fair price together but these folks delivered both. Highly recommend them."
