Every detail matters
We get it.
Construction projects can be both exciting and daunting. You want the work to be of the highest quality, and you want to be kept in the loop, but you don't want to have to manage the whole project.
That's why at Bates Building, we pride ourselves on our communication and attention to detail. So you can focus on enjoying your vision coming to life, and leave the work to us.
Johnny completely remodeled our farmhouse and we could not be more pleased. His creativity and ability to adopt our vision was incredible. His use of various materials added character to the build. Attention to detail was appropriate. And if something isn't exactly matching your wishes, he fixes it. He also kept us from making design mistakes. We love everything he did to our house, and the cost was reasonable.
