We hired Michael and his team to convert our unfinished basement to 90% living space. Michael worked within our budget and timeline and was a great communicator and collaborator. He and his crew took care to always clean up, and when it came to drywall and finishing work his team earned high praise from our other contractors due to the quality of the work. Our electrician specifically said he had never seen better work even without the final coat of spackle and sanding.
We highly recommend Michael and Hock Eye Construction and would happily work with them again!

Mike and his crew are beyond professional and I would recommend Hock Eye Construction with the highest regards. From Mike’s first text to the final touches, I don’t have one negative comment, even when I had a concern at the beginning of the project; Mike listened and pivoted to make my vision possible. He and his crew created this beautiful built-in that made our room feel complete. Hock Eye Construction is already lined up for future projects!

I had a great experience using Hock Eye! They turned up on time and managed to move all the furniture in the room around to paint properly behind everything. They even took off the curtain rail! Paint job looks great - it was just painting over the pink with an off white.
Details: Home • 1 room • Walls • Under 8 feet • Repainting - color change • Excellent - clean and smooth • Yes, this is new construction • Yes, I would like the painter to help move things

I’m very happy with the projects Hock Eye has completed for me. The three outdoor deck staircases are the most solid outdoor stairs I have ever walked upon. Today he and his crew completed an emergency porch repair that was caused by shoddy work by someone else years ago. When Murphy’s Law comes into play, Michael gets creative and devises a solution. We have more work to do and I am looking forward to its completion as well.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Good work isn't cheap and cheap work isn't good. We fairly price each aspect of a project to the skill set demand.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I like to tell my customers a little about myself and then fully listen to their ideas. Once I have your vision, I work very hard to produce the best work possible matching the budget. In some cases, I have come under budget and have made customers extremely satisfied
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
