I love houses, and have renovated several (including two registered historic homes) over the years. Thus I consider myself extremely picky and exacting when it comes to contractors. I appreciate the old-fashioned way of doing things, which is increasingly hard to find. Before I met Dustin Shaw, I had two previous favorite contractors in another state, and a few really horrible experiences. All this being said, Dustin is the rare find in this day and age -- he is young and yet "old-school" in every regard. He is the third generation of builders in his family and grew up learning the trade, and it shows. His work ethic is the highest, and he sets the highest possible bar for the quality of work that he (and any subcontractors he hires) delivers. I hired Dustin to renovate my favorite home of all, my childhood home, and he exhibited such care and understanding throughout. I wasn't in town during the project, but I had complete peace of mind that all would be done as it should be. Dustin's workmanship is beautiful, and as importantly, he has the highest degree of integrity. Since that project I have hired him to renovate several of my family's rental properties, and have recommended him to anyone I meet who is looking to build new construction or renovate. I can guarantee that if you hire him you will thank your lucky stars that you did. read more
