Letter of Recommendation for Mike White, Island Carpentry
We began working with Mike White (Island Carpentry) in the March of 2014 on a new energy efficient, "certified green" home. When we first started working with Mike we had a house to sell before we started our project. We move aggressively on a schedule to plan and build our new home. We sold our home within days of listing with a real estate agent and secured a building lot and construction loan prior to closing on the sale of our residence. Time was of essence and we had a firm budget. Critical planning and building our new 2,300 sq. ft. near net-zero home within a short, but critical, 6 month window was our goal.
Mike White was professional, focused, money-conscious, fair, and a friendly contractor that we were hoping to find as we prepared to build our new home. We needed a contractor with flexibility in terms of selecting sub contractors and purchasing materials because we had fixed budget and a tight window to complete our new home. Most important, we wanted a contractor that was focused, responsive and detail-oriented that would be on the job site daily.
While building a new home can be inherently stressful for almost any homeowner, Mike's services as a general contractor were invaluable, and we are extremely pleased with the final result.
In summary, I would not hesitate to hire Mike to build us a home again, or to recommend him to my friends and neighbors. Mike completed our home, from start to finish, within our six months timeline!
