Our project has been completed for months and we are fully utilizing the wonderful space you created for us. If you recall, we met with you back in 2015 and then life, work, and kids got in the way and distracted us from following through with our project. During that down-time we fine-tuned what we had envisioned for our outdoor space. We met up again in the fall of 2016 to discuss our options. Before too long we had a design drawn up and after a couple revisions, we were good to get started in November of 2016. What had been planned as an 8-week project turned into many more months with all the rain we experienced. We were ok with it but Geoff kept apologizing even after we told him there wasn’t any rush. After all, it was winter.
I can’t say enough about how Geoff Thomas runs his worksite. I have never dealt with a contractor who pays so much attention to how the worksite is left after a day’s work. The jobsite was left clean and hosed down and everything tucked away after each day of work. That shows you how much Geoff cares about his site and how he treats his clients. This attention to detail translates to his concrete work, brick work, seat wall build, pizza oven design, and concrete counters. His work is very impressive. I have worked with many contractors over the past 35 years- owning several homes and an owner of several rental properties, and Geoff treats his business like a business. If he says he will meet you on a certain day at a certain time, you can rest assured he will be there.
Geoff checked in constantly with me regarding the progress of the build. He does this to make sure his clients are happy and to discuss any changes we may want to make along the way. He gives recommendations and isn’t afraid to try something new with a design. This communication was so appreciated. Geoff sticks to the build schedule, other than unexpected rain downpours when he can’t work at the site, like no one I have ever met. When he says he works one job at a time, that is the truth. We saw him every day during the construction period.
Our outdoor BBQ, seat island, pizza oven, seat wall and seat bench will be enjoyed for many years to come. We had 25+ people over a couple of weeks ago for my daughter’s graduation party and could have accommodated many more. The site flows so perfectly and that is because the layout was so well thought out with the initial drawings.
Lastly, if any potential clients need to see the type of work you do, send them over and I would be happy to show them our completed project. There will always be a cold beer waiting for them.
Cheers-
