Basement - Remodel
Yes, I recommend this pro
These boys were so good to us and have gained some lifelong customers! We had a long project with a lot of unexpected hidden issues popping up along the way, and we had to pause the project partway for some personal reasons, but they were kind rolled with every punch! We’ll be using them for years to come and recommending them to friends and family.

They came to my house and gave me a quote on the same day that I posted my project. The job was time-sensitive, so they were out the next morning to do the work. The price was reasonable, communication was great, and the work was done to my satisfaction. I would definitely hire again.

Addition to Existing Structure Building Service
Yes, I recommend this pro
Our 100+ year old house had some very real structural problems (some of which couldnâ t be totally evaluated until some walls were opened up) but Scott was very honest when presenting what needed to be done. He was accurate on the timeline, and he and his crew showed up every day. Communication was good - we always knew at what stage the project was at, and anytime there was something unexpected that came up, we always knew about it. I felt that the pricing was more than fair and I would definitely use Essence Construction in the future.

Workers were friendly and explained what they were doing each day. Scott was hands on and communicated everyday and stopped to check things out each day. We did have to make a few changes and Scott was very receptive and willing to do what was best for the project. Scheduling wise they started the job when promised a finished on schedule even with changes.
