Our experience with Korth construction was incredible. Anytime you are doing a buildout or an addition you know that the experience is going to be stressful and expensive due to change orders. Korth Construction surpassed our wildest dreams. They were not only organized, they were professional, thorough, easy to work with, paid attention to detail, and their quality of work was top-notch ! We had originally wanted the buildout to be performed after hours and on weekends as to not interrupt our office hours and ability to see patients. This optionwas going to be very expensive so we

WARNING...bottom feeders...do not work for these people. It doesn't matter how good of a company you are, they just go with the lowest number. And god forbid you make a mistake they will try to hold you to something you missed. Also, rush you through bids trying to force mistakes. Look for the cheapest way out and do not take account for their mistakes...WOULD NOT WORK FOR THEM IF I WERE YOU.
