The comment above or below mine is 100% false. That girl owed him LOTS of money and did not pay him. He built a house for me and my family and it's was great. I highly recommend hiring him.

Numerous issues. Ask for a reference from his 33 Haldeman client. Happy to share my experience. Avoid. Ultimately fired after 22 difficult months on the job. Not all permits shown on this site. Multi million dollar contract.

Jim is a solid professional with a great eye and a talent for coming up with solutions to problems. Also one of the nicest guys on the planet. We hired him on the recommendation of several members of our community. He worked on a complex fence/deck/hardscaping project for our mid-century modern home, designed a beautifully modern solution, kept the project on budget, and has responded promptly to the couple of adjustments that have needed to be made post-project. Happily recommend.
