TRUSTED SECONDARY DWELLING UNIT CONTRACTORS
"Gilded Contractors (Cory and Eric) recently finished a full renovation of my kitchen which included removing a wall in the dining room. They came to me highly recommended for their high quality of work and experience, and they DELIVERED! I am extremely satisfied with their work, the experience, and my new kitchen. Their estimates of work, project management, and communication are all excellent. From the beginning they kept me informed of what to expect throughout the project, and took every precaution to protect the surrounding areas. When they encountered issues, they always presented them to me with options that took my budget into consideration. Extremely flexible and accommodating with change requests, and still completed the work on schedule. Their attention to detail, and high standard is easily visible in the details. They were pleasant to work with, professional, knowledgeable, energetic, hardworking and I’ll miss seeing them around the house. I am so glad about my decision to use Gilded and they will be my go to for any future renovations. Thank you so much Cory and Eric!"
