What Our Homeowners Say About Us

“I cannot recommend Hank Wall and his company highly enough. We already knew who we wanted to do our work because we fell for him decades ago when we added the front room and were interviewing contractors. He was newish and we were brand new to renovations so we went with another company because they were more established. The other company did ok but we loved the quality and integrity of Hank Wall and Wood Wise. Would never ever use anyone else again. They are super organized, with a set price from the beginning so no surprises later, has used the same subs for years and they all admire what he does. Wood Wise is probably more expensive in its estimates, but in the end you get your money’s worth. Not a good fit for anyone who needs to think they are getting a ‘deal.’ 10 Star rating.” – Wes & Bennett Cotten
“We are extremely pleased with Wood Wise’s basement project in our home. They added 1500 sq ft of living space in our basement. The materials and workmanship are first class. The process started with Kathy preparing blueprints that gave us an idea of the project that incorporated our desires. A start date was agreed upon and the complete project was finished several weeks ahead of schedule. Ben, site manager was present every day to insure their sub- contractors arrived as scheduled. Ben attended to every detail and was a pleasure to work with. We felt secure with all of the sub- contractors even when we were absent from our home. The entire project was brought in below budget. We highly recommend Wood Wise if you want a quality team to undertake your project.” – Richard Law
“Each Wood Wise staff member was a creative problem solver and was completely vested in making our project as beautiful, efficient and successful as possible. They thought of solutions within our home’s existing footprint when other contractors insisted nothing could be done without an addition, which we were opposed to.”
– Johns & Cheryl Ellington
“We could not be more satisfied with the entire experience of the construction of an addition to our house. All of the people at Wood Wise, including the subcontractors, were professional, friendly, courteous, and prompt. The selection process was made easy with guidance from Kathy. The project manager, Ben, was extremely organized and always was on top of the smallest of details. We looked forward to talking to him each day. He really kept the project rolling. We can’t say enough good things about Hank and the entire Wood Wise team!”
– David & Mary Anderson
“I enjoyed working again with Kathy, Ben, and Greg! All have great personalities and are easy to work with; they all also pay attention to any and all comments and quickly resolve any concerns.”
– Steve & Jean Stephano (2-time repeat client)
“Not only did you respect our home, you respected our pets! Our dog Molly is afraid of loud noises, so you can imagine her reaction to a kitchen tear-down. Ben, our Project Manager, became one of Molly’s favorite people, despite her associating him with many loud noises. With Wood Wise Design & Remodeling, your home will improve, and your life will improve.”
– Laura & Ed Owens
“I love my porch and use it every chance I get. I love the stone wall; I love the cute, little red Vermont Castings gas stove; I love the sound the wood screen door makes when it closes, because it reminds me of summers at my grandmother’s.”
– Therese Schag
“5 out of 5 in every category!”
– Jerry & Mary Cynthia Monday
“We wanted a functional kitchen, a first floor master suite, a den, a laundry room, a powder room, and screened porch — with lots of storage, minimal additional square footage, handicap accessible doorways, and a look that was compatible with the house’s 1925 style and architectural detail. We are extremely happy with the job that Wood Wise did and find the house a real pleasure to live in.”
– Ralph & Nina Yeager
“Wood Wise was very organized in their approach to the project. The work was done in a very clean and unobtrusive fashion (wall and room protection). The crews were professional, very responsive and made sure to resolve everything to satisfy us.”
– Richard & Judy Lacks
“I appreciate the daily clean-up efforts. It has helped to keep my home livable through the process. Ben Toney is thoroughly professional and willingly answered all of my questions and concerns.”
– Kathleen Kidd
“We are very pleased with the details of the porch – from the unique powder-coat finished railing to the beaded pine ceiling of the porch. These subtle architectural touches are what make our screened porch special to us.”
– Brad Williams
“For the remodel of our basement, we had two priorities. First, maximum use of natural light, and secondly, we didn’t want it to look like a remodeled basement but a downstairs. There is no doubt that Wood Wise listened to us and accomplished both to perfection.”
– Meg Houseworth
“Our project manager and lead carpenter inspired me every day to do better at my job and in the way I treat people. They each brought a work ethic, a level of craftsmanship, dignity and a sense of humor that was a pleasure to be around. Our deepest appreciation.”
– Marilyn Bara
“The personal attention that Hank and Susan provided was wonderful — made us feel like we were the only clients they had. Even our neighbors who were over to feed our cats commented on how friendly and professional Ben and his team were. You guys simply knocked it out of the ballpark each and every time in every way!”
– Tim & Gwen Hazlehurst (2nd remodeling project)
“The renovation is now complete. The jury is in. We now know Wood Wise priced the project fairly, up front and consistently made quality choices in our best interest. The project came in on time and the result has greatly exceeded our expectations to say the least. If any homeowner with the same worries asks us, I guess what we’d say is – ‘Trust Hank Wall and Wood Wise.’ “
– Jack & Linda Kimball
“On time, on spec, and on budget would be high praise for many in this business, but it’s far from adequate to describe Wood Wise’s work at our house. Through the years we have dealt with a number of contractors both for our home and our commercial buildings, but Wood Wise’s work is now the standard of excellence by which all will be measured.”
– Hal Burrows
“After the kitchen renovation was completed, we were amazed that this beautiful kitchen was actually located in our house. A couple of our friends had trouble purchasing their new home because they were comparing their kitchen with our kitchen. What a compliment!”
– Mike & Hannah Sullivan
