What My Clients Say

  • "Ryan is reliable, personable and very easy to work with. He is a good listener when we are clear about our preferences, and offers practical options when our ideas are vague. Moreover, he does beautiful work, with careful attention to detail, for both indoor and outdoor projects."

    Steven Gershon (Bathroom Remodel, Deck, Fencing, Gate)

  • "Aside from Ryan's commitment to 'doing it right' and his keen attention to detail, he is a problem solver - bringing creative solutions to all our projects."

    Laurel Aiona (Bathroom Remodel, Deck, Trellis)

  • "Ryan is a joy to work with! So professional and kind and attentive. He walked me through the permitting process (that I feared would be a nightmare), and it was 100% manageable with him at the helm. Great communication in both directions: Ryan initiated conversations with updates, and he was available anytime I had questions. Thank you!!!"

    Vanessa Carter (Project Management)

  • "I have recently had the pleasure of working with Ryan Silva and would highly recommend his services to anyone needing a contractor. Ryan is prompt, smart, has excellent carpentry skills and is easy to work with. He has great ideas and a good eye for design. He completed my project on time and within budget. I will definitely hire him again for my next construction project, and you should, too!"New List Item
