Our building experience with Ryan Shaw and Shaw Construction Services was above and beyond outstanding! From the very beginning Ryan was professional to the highest level.
His communication skills were over and beyond our expectations. He was reachable and available for any and all questions, and took complete ownership of each and every task at hand.
Ryan was completely inline with his timeline, but at the same time would not compromise quality for quickness. He brought in the highest level (skill set and character) subcontractors. Ryan is very meticulous, so the quality he expects from his subs is a reflection of that. His process of building the budget enabled an exact amount to be expected without any surprises in cost, and that was met perfectly.
This was our first time with a custom new build, so even though we weren’t originally familiar with the entire process, we felt at ease with trusting Ryan’s character in guiding us along the way. The process, from beginning to end, was enjoyable!
