I hired Veteran Built Homes to update a bathroom. They did an excellent job with the installation of the cabinet, painting, installation of mirror, and recess light kit. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend them for your home projects. Darlene Phelps

Mark and Joe along with their entire team were fantastic to work with. Our basement refinishing job came out beautifully, and as a result, we hired them to refinish our master bathroom and guest bathroom. The entire team was very professional and did excellent work. I would highly recommend Vet Built Homes.

I hired VBH to install a new bath tub for a bathroom upgrade. Everything went smoothly and they were great to work with.

I hired these guys to take out a load-bearing wall for an old home that I recently bought, and they did a great job! Mark at vet built homes was professional, responsive, and did soild work. His guys are punctional and professional. They always showed up on time, and I always got quotes within 24 hours of asking for them. Mark was always available to answer any questions that came up along the way and was a big help with the permitting process. Overall, I had a great experience with them, and I definitely recommend them.
