Big Dog Designs did incredible work on my front porch and back deck. He was punctual and worked throughout the day. His price for the work was a lot cheaper than I expected. The porch looks great! He responded to my needs quickly and completed the work in one day. I will contact Big Dog Designs in the future for my carpentry needs.

We contacted Brian to repair my parent’s deck boards and add a wheelchair ramp. He was professional, courteous, friendly and prompt throughout our interactions in messaging and in person. Before he had the opportunity to get his bid to us, we had a family member notify us they were available to do the project for just the cost of materials, so Brian didn’t get a chance to work on our project, but he will be our first call on the next project we need help with.

Big Dog replaced and updated my fireplace and we love it. He also put a fence around my backyard and my grand dogs loved it
