We cannot say enough AMAZING things about Alex and the team at Artisan Contracting. They recently completed a major renovation on our home, and the entire experience exceeded our expectations from start to finish.
The project involved removing our existing kitchen and creating a much larger, open-concept living space. Alex and his team installed a beautiful custom kitchen with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry and oak hardwood flooring. They also removed the entire back exterior wall of our home and the existing deck, installing a large support beam for a large new family room addition.
Alex and team are extremely skilled at what they do. Their quality of work and attention to detail was outstanding. What impressed us most, beyond the fantastic quality of work, was the professionalism of Alex and his team. They were incredibly organized, respectful, and kept the job site extremely clean throughout the entire project. Because of this, we were able to live in our home during the entire renovation — even when there was no back wall on the house!
Alex was incredible when it came to communication. He responded quickly to every question we had, always providing thoughtful, knowledgeable, and honest answers. At no point did we ever feel pressured or rushed into making decisions. He was always patient and gave us the time and information necessary to make choices we felt confident about.
One of the things we appreciated most was the transparency throughout the project. Alex provided daily updates so we always knew what work had been completed, what was happening next, and how the project was progressing. His quote was detailed and transparent from the beginning, with no surprises along the way. The project was completed on time and on budget, aside from the upgrades and changes that we chose to add ourselves after the initial quote.
Another huge benefit of working with Alex was how he handled all of the permits and inspections required for the project. He managed the entire process and ensured all requirements were met. It was completely worry-free for us.
We are absolutely thrilled with our renovation and would highly recommend Alex and Artisan Contracting to anyone looking for a contractor who is skilled, trustworthy, and professional. Alex earned our confidence during each step of the project, and we will definitely be calling him again for any future work.
Thank you, Alex and team, for creating a space that our family will enjoy for many years to come.

I would recommend this team to anyone ,
We are very happy with Alex and Artisan Contracting. We purchased a house and initiated a significant renovation and addition which was almost like a new build. It was completed on-time and Alex was responsive throughout the 8 month process. There were unexpected issues as one would expect but they were never Alex’s fault and he actively addressed them in consultation with us. We highly recommend Alex and Artisan Contracting!
