I was very pleased with the crown molding. I had crown molding down by others, but the quality did not stand up to Adam's work. He is very good and would be glad to refer him to others.

Adam did a great job on our basement re-finishing project. He took an unfinished basement and created a beautiful finished recreation room area in a portion of the space. It has a dropped, noise reduction ceiling, sheet rock walls, and wood floor. The work was very high quality and was done very carefully in our house. There was minimal disruption and mess. This is something we always value from any contractor that we hire. It is now a very comfortable space for watching TV and playing pool. We love our new rec room.

We hired BB Woodcrafters to build a custom planter for our tomatos. Not only did they do a fantastic job, but went above and beyond by building it on a weekend so we could get it treated and our garden planted. We are happy clients and hope to use them again in the future.
