Report
Platt Builders has done two projects for us over the past five years. We replaced siding, trim and windows. The process they went through from estimation to completion was predictable, thorough and professional. We have had other contractors do work in our home before. Never again. Platt's attention to detail and craftsmanship is incredible. They walked us through the process and answered any questions we had. The project manager checked in with us on a regular basis to be sure we knew what to expect next. We couldn't be happier with their work and plan to call on them again in the future.

Report
Lynne S We completed our 4th project with Platt Builders this Fall. We have enjoyed the professionalism from Platt Builders - their employees and their subs are responsive, friendly and knowledgable. We redesigned our master bathroom, added a closet and linen cabinets. The process for the master bathroom and closet was fantastic. When we started our master bathroom project we knew we wanted natural wood and Steve was so helpful guiding our selection of color and cabinet style.
We choose teak and could not be more THRILLED with the result- the wood grain matching is impeccable- the bathroom now feels like a Scandinavian spa. Platt Builders also suggested an efficient way to re-work my closet so I feel like I have more space. We have also been fortunate to have Platt Builders replace our siding and windows, but what started it all was our kitchen renovation and porch addition 5 years ago. This company is our go-to contractor.
