Owner
Tenisi is the most reliable and trustworthy contractor I have ever worked with.
He and his crew are the most competent and reliable contractors I have ever worked with. I have hired quite a few contractors - not to mention the many dozens I interviewed that lacked the skills that I consider basic.
Tenisi is knowledgeable in all areas of the building process, I deferred to him on nearly every aspect of my addition and whole home renovation, he has decades of experience and a broad range of talent in every area of home construction.
I guarantee this is the contractor to trust, if you've tried them all or none, try the best. Seriously. Call him for a consultation or quote-you won't be disappointed!
