Tony Trapp is the best, period. That means he doesn't cut corners, and doesn't work with people who…read moredo. And, the best people cost more than the average people. But, you get more than you pay for, too. Much more. I demand to get something for every dollar. I am frugal, and I more of a DIYer than most. I had several contractors come out to look at a number of jobs, and I interviewed a number of skilled workers across several trades for my house remodel. In the end, I didn't hire any of them. If you've done some research, you already know why -- good people are hard to find. Really hard. And that was how it was, until I talked to Tony about what I wanted. When he met with me and my wife, with him were the best electrician I have ever met, and the best plumber I have ever met. And they all worked with us to sketch out what they could do. And when the carpenters came, they were the best carpenters I have ever met -- every one of them was a better carpenter than anyone I have ever worked with. And it kept on like that through every sort of job -- the workers who came out to take out the old insulation and put in the new were the very best, the team who did all the demo, put up the drywall, and so forth, all the very best. And everything came along on schedule, orchestrated as promised. And, when there were bumps in the road, whether due to a misunderstanding or a job that didn't turn out as I or my wife had envisioned, Tony took care of it. And the price never changed except when I took over part of the job, or asked Tony for more work to be done. He was flexible to a fault, working with me without friction on my every change, and there were quite a few. These are some of the many other benefits we got when we put our faith, and our money, in Tony. We got the best there is, and we got everything we wanted the way we wanted it. Maybe it sounds self-indulgent, but then, this is where we live, and we have particular ideas about what we do and don't want. On every front, Tony met those expectations, and frequently exceeded them, such as by providing better work than we thought possible, spotting problems that were then fixed instead of becoming another problem down the road, and many other such matters that are hard to describe in a short review, but each of which is important. And I know, from experience, that other contractors, even good ones, would not have provided the things Tony did. He's simply on another level. Tony Trapp earned my trust, respect, and admiration. He has the best people, but Tony is the very best of the best. I have never seen anyone so meticulous, diligent, professional, patient, or wise about his work. If I had to do it all over again, I would count myself the luckiest person alive if I could have Tony again.

Outdoor Deck I've…read moreknown Abe Degnan as a personal friend and client for many years so when I had the opportunity to rebuild and expand our deck, Degnan Design-Build-Remodel was my first call! I could handle the update, sanding and sealing of the existing deck on my own, but wanted an expert to change out the railing from wood to black finished metal and replace a 4' stair with a 20' wrap around staircase. The work was completed yesterday and exceeded my expectation in every way! The lead carpenter and his carpenters were amazing, the work was completed on time and on budget, and we are receiving nothing but excellent feedback from neighbors, friends and family.

Degnan did a beautiful job creating the 3 season room of our dreams. It has become our oasis, the…read morefavorite spot of our house, and it helped keep us sane during COVID. Even though it's "3 season," we can use it year-round. The wide modern fireplace they recommended heats the entire space in even very cold conditions, and the insulated floor helps maintain a warm surface once heated. It's always a wonderful experience to relax with a cup of coffee next to the warm fireplace while enjoying the expansive view. As you can tell from the pictures in the portfolio, Degnan's craftsmanship and attention to detail were top-notch. They took what we were looking for way beyond the next level, with some fantastic ideas. We initially looked to convert the existing deck space, carrying forward a typical rectangular room layout. They suggested that pulling the area inward into more of an L shape would make it more dramatic and cozier. This layout enabled some very striking design features, like the tandem windows and the exposed beam over the dining area. They also did a fantastic job creating a vaulted roof ceiling that matched the home's exterior aesthetics and made way for light to pour in on those large beautiful windows. A lot of thought went into not just style but also the functionality of the space. For example, the layout allows quick access from the kitchen to the grill, and I didn't even realize all the benefits until using the space. Notably, they had recommended a landing instead of a typical stairway, and aside from just looking better, it's a lot easier to carry trays of food with your hands full when you have that additional space. Another example is they recommended a four-pane vinyl window system that can be put into all kinds of open configurations, and it's super easy to clean. One of the features of the project we enjoy the most was a custom expansive glass folding door. It essentially gives us a glass wall that we can completely slide out of the way, creating a fully open space when we have guests. This makes the room feel like a natural continuation of the house, as opposed to an isolated space. It eliminates that awkward crowding you usually get with a more typical doorway. The fact that it slides means you do not cover the light switches with a door; they remain accessible in the room. The Degnan team was fantastic to work with, and even the owner (Abe) was highly engaged and responsive to any question or concern. *even after project completion*. Further, Degnan stands behind their work and is committed to your complete satisfaction. There was a manufacturing issue with our flooring, and Degnan diligently worked to correct it as soon as they were aware of the problem. Six months after the job was completed, Abe still personally reached out to make sure nothing new had popped up, and we were still happy. They even came out to check for shifts from season changes. We couldn't be happier!i

Within about another day I had a project estimate that I found to be very fair considering the amount of work that was required. Tom personally helped me pick the color and provided suggestions when I was unsure of paint finishes and a few minor details. Scheduling the workers was easy and Jason and Josh did a fantastic job. The wall patching was well done and the retexturing just made everything look right. They covered a living room with vaulted ceiling, kitchen with a skylight, dining room, and hallway in just a couple of days. Throughout the project Tom was communicating frequently, providing status updates. The painters cleaned up after themselves and left everything in good shape. I will definitely be contacting these guys again for my next project.
