Thank you to Frank and Dave for helping us bring our kitchen into 2020! Before starting the work, they took the time to really understand what we wanted and explained the specifics of each part of the process. They also provided us a detailed estimate with timelines (which were better and more complete than others) - any subsequent changes to cost or time were the result of additional requests and changes we made along the way. They were patient and knowledgeable and happy to make us happy, as were the tradespeople who were friendly, efficient, and on time!

The trades people that Classic Craft Homes engage are very professional and mirror the philosophy of Classic Craft Homes. Communication is important to Classic Craft Homes. Prior to signing the
