We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Alex and his team at Fernridge Construction! They replaced our old, decrepit deck with a stunning new outdoor space that we absolutely love. From the start, Alex was thoughtful and smart about the choices he suggested, helping us create a deck that’s not only beautiful to look at but also incredibly functional for our needs. His attention to detail and practical advice made all the difference.
What really stood out was the atmosphere his crew brought to the project — every single one of his employees was cheerful and positive throughout the process. It’s clear they enjoy working for Alex, and that kind of morale shows in the quality of the work. The whole experience was seamless and pleasant, and the end result is beyond what we imagined. Highly recommend Fernridge Construction!

My husband & I bought a new house in July but it definitely needed a renovation to make it work for us. We found Alex, & his team, via Thumbtack & he reached out immediately & he helped transform our house into our dream home for our retirement! He handled everything & has even done a few extra projects after we moved in & they are all beautiful. We cannot speak highly enough about him & Caleb; highly recommend his company to anyone!

Alex did wonderful work on our house. We live in a late 1800s farmhouse and half of our living room was a porch conversion from the late 90s/early 2000s. Last winter the living room was uninhabitable, freezing cold and drafty. Alex worked with our budget (and busy summer schedule) and addressed all our concerns and more. All told, he installed 5 new windows and a set of french doors, all while working around all sorts of odd angles and gaps and insulation nightmares. It's already getting cold and the difference from last fall to this year is incredible. Highly recommend!

We couldn’t be more thrilled with our custom kitchen remodel! From start to finish, Alex demonstrated an exceptional level of professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail. The custom cabinets are stunning—beautifully designed and flawlessly installed. The marble countertops add a luxurious touch, and the high-end appliances were installed with absolute precision. Every aspect of this project was handled with care and expertise, and the final result exceeded our expectations. If you’re looking for top-tier quality and an installer that truly takes pride in their work, look no further. Highly recommended!
