We hired Perry-Murphy to replace the rotted wood and windows add beautiful sliding doors to a beautiful new deck! The team (Art, Sean, and Andre, specifically) were wonderful in working with us as we picked out all the elements from windows, to doors, decking, and railing. It was our first big project as new homeowners and we were so grateful for their patience and feedback in working with us on our design. It was a pleasure having the guys here working. They were wonderful, respectful, and responsive. Their work is BEAUTIFUL! Trek decking, cable railing, with a drink rail, a small landing to connect to our screened in porch, and steps down to the hard. We would recommend Art-Murphy again and again!

Working within the constraints of a original footprint (in a 1798 federal style home), Bill reworked a beautiful new Master bathroom which entailed a gorgeous tiled steam shower. Also included in the project were newly reconfigured linen/laundry closets in keeping with this older home . Both of these jobs were of the highest quality workmanship. Along with a newly renovated master bath, we also had ice damage to five main rooms. Plum Island construction did a beautiful job and went above and beyond the scope of work to prevent and contain any mold issues. We would highly recommend Plum Island Construction for any and all of your construction needs.
