Even better than I hoped! We asked Curtis to hang a cabinet in our laundry room, but the final product with his suggestions added so much more usable space and looks so much nicer than it did before. Fantastic to work with, highly recommend!

I highly recommend Curtis Hildebrand! He completely transformed a very odd fireplace wall into one that is absolutely stunning and beautifully functional. He was always open to what I wanted to try and even helped me with several smaller projects around my home. His work was excellent, and he was always dependable and thoughtful. Curtis is so lovely to work with, which made The whole remodel so much fun to do. His instincts are spot on, and I would recommend him to anyone who is looking to do some work in their home.

Highly recommend. Curtis installed a herringbone black backsplash for us and we absolutely love it. He helped with the tile selection, explaining in detail his recommendations between tiles and what will provide us with the best result. I was leaning towards matte finish as I am more drawn to the matte but as he explained the gloss gives depth. We are so happy that he gave us this advice as now seeing it on the wall I can see exactly what he was talking about. Very happy with the result and we will definitely be utilizing Curtis again for future projects.
