EAST CITY BUILDERS REVIEWS

East City did an incredible job designing and building a beautiful addition on our old house. At every step we were honestly informed of the progress, which was quick, on budget, and really high quality. They have good relationships with other local pros and didn't balk at a challenge (or a bunch of wild questions) now and then to help make our vision come to life. It was amazing to be able to work with folks you trust to treat your home like they would their own. And on top of that, they are friendly, pleasant folks to have around. Highly highly recommend.

We are so grateful for the amazing addition ECB built for us. They worked with us to make our vision come to life and we couldn’t be happier with the space! All the employees were kind and respectful for the months we had them going in and out of our house. We had open communication about changes as they came up, as they do in a century house reno. They helped us problem solve to figure out the solutions that worked best for us. Overall a great experience working with these guys!.

Hadyn, Ben, and their crew did an amazing job installing new pine floors in our heritage house last year. They coped well with uneven floors and multiple door openings. Also so pleased that they were able to source local flooring. These guys are absolutely dependable and easy to work with.

HARMONY HOMES REVIEWS

As a plumbing subcontractor, I aim to highlight the exceptional collaboration I have experienced with Harmony Homes. Their passion and ability to understand the vision of their customers is consistently impressive. One aspect I truly value about Harmony Homes is their knack for addressing questions that often go unasked. Michael's thought process throughout each project has continually astonished me, showcasing our collective diligence in achieving outstanding final results. For any personal projects at my home, Harmony Homes is always my first point of contact. I want to express my gratitude for the consistently wonderful experiences I have had while working with them. I firmly believe that when contractors and their trades maintain a positive working relationship, it leads to a significantly better overall experience.

The team at harmony homes are great to work with. They are very proffesional and handle projects in a timely and efficient manner.
