Pete completed a new build architectural house on a hill site for us. Pete was reliable, honest, and easy to deal with. His communication was timely and clear. I would recommend Pete's Construction to anyone.

What can I say! These guys are great. Pete is an amazing communicator, something thats lost these days, especially in the trades, we arranged multiple quotes and he was only too happy to come out and listen to the plan and work something to suit. The pricing was so good, highly recommended.
