Jonny at MBA Construction was responsive and great to work with on paint, trim and plaster touch up around the house. He also had creative ideas that worked for challenging repairs. I’d use them again - great communications too and respectful of my home.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I provide clear and detailed estimates with no hidden fees. Pricing depends on the scope of work, materials, and project complexity. I always try to offer fair and competitive pricing while maintaining high-quality workmanship.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
First, I discuss the customer’s project goals and expectations. Then I schedule a visit or review photos to better understand the scope of work and provide a clear estimate. Once approved, we coordinate scheduling, materials, and maintain good communication throughout the project from start to finish.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have years of hands-on experience in construction, remodeling, and finish carpentry. I’ve worked on a wide variety of residential projects and continue learning new techniques, materials, and building methods to provide the best possible service to my clients.
