Customer Feedback:
Kelley Painting & Waterproofing
“He painted our 3-story stucco apartment building, and he did a great job. We were really satisfied with the detail and care that he and his crew used to prep and clean up. He did what he said, and he did it well. I recommended him to a friend of mine, and she was very satisfied also. We’re going to have him back later in the year. Jim has a great staff of people that he’s been using for years, and I appreciate that. I feel very confident in referring him.”

Brecht Construction
“We had heard remodel nightmare stories from friends and family. I guess we got lucky in picking Brecht Construction, because throughout the project we felt extremely comfortable with every aspect. They were so sensitive to the fact that we had to live in the house around the project.”
