Hope you have a great holiday season!"

“All of us here at Sachs Construction wanted to drop you a note to say THANK YOU for doing such a great job at Cosmo.  All of you worked so hard, and truly worked as a team for the benefit of our client and the project that we just wanted to let you know how much it was appreciated.”

I wanted to express my personal thanks for the outstanding contribution you made to our home building extension.  As Superintendent for our project I was very satisfied with your attention to detail, ability to quickly solve any problem or issue, management of the schedule, budget and contractors and overall general site support.  Your knowledge and skills were invaluable as guidance to our decision making process and the overall success and quality of our project.

I also appreciate your relationship management skills!  As I was your primary client but my parents were also involved in the build, I was very impressed that you kept all of us engaged and managed through our sometimes conflicting directions and requests.  I can honestly say we always felt like a priority and that you were fully engaged at all times even though we were not your only client.   Thank you for the extra time you spent with all of us, you really earned our trust and we quickly got to the point where we just didn’t worry much about the build as we knew you were on top of everything!

I am very satisfied with the quality of work and overall “beauty” of my new home.  I love it!  I can’t find anything that did not meet or exceed my expectations and I was pleasantly surprised with unexpected touches to the cabinets, trim, paint texture, pantry and front stairs.

Thank you again!

“Mariah has a stellar background, and we were very impressed with the portfolio of her previous work, education and training.”

“Mariah came highly recommended to us by Carol Madeen of Madeen Interior Design Studio, Durango, CO.  Carol has utilized Mariah’s talents to compliment several of her interior design endeavors.”

“Mariah is very well organized and professional in her work approach.  She gave us a very accurate estimate of cost and time associated with the job.  She was very prompt each day and completed the mural on time and within budget.”

“She was also very meticulous with regard to the detail of the animals insuring the exemplified realism.”

We feel very fortunate to have had both Jason and Mariah work on our home.  Jason was responsible for all the finish carpentry and trim work and Mariah did faux finishes in two of the rooms.  The quality and pride in their workmanship is evident and their suggestions were thoughtful and constructive.  Their work came in on time and on budget.

The contribution they made went a long way toward making this house our home.  We cannot say enough good things about them.

What a great team!

“Mariah did a mural of the New York City skyline in my basement for my daughter’s bedroom.  It is amazing!  She was quick, efficient, and her attention to detail was incredible.  It was completed seven years ago and it still looks like new.”

“I marvel at the beautiful mural you created. I know we will enjoy this masterpiece for years to come. Your talent and creativity are amazing.”

Regarding Jason's Kitchen Work:

“Thank you, Jason, for designing my dream kitchen. Going from metal painted boxes on my walls to beautifully designed custom oak kitchen cabinets has been a dream come true.”

“The complete transformation has been a sure delight. You exemplified professionalism throughout the entire process and kept me informed of your progress every step of the way.”

“I only wish that you still lived in my area, as I have so many other jobs I would love for you to complete. You truly are the best contractor I have ever had the pleasure of working with.”

“Mariah worked in my department as a Scenic Artist from September 1998 until March 2000.  During her tenure here Mariah displayed great skill in scenic painting, utilizing knowledge in faux finishing, trompe l’oeil, and mural applications.  She excelled in delivering a superior finish, even under tight deadlines and high-stress situations.  Mariah’s attention to detail is also exemplary, in particular with her airbrushing.”

“Mariah is also very willing to accept the challenges.  She had the opportunity to lead groups of both skilled and unskilled labor in some very extensive projects, both in the shop and on location.  Mariah accepted these challenges and performed very well.”

“During her residence at Sunbelt, I found Mariah to be adaptable, motivated, and highly skilled, as well as personable and friendly.  Mariah was well liked by her peers and we were all very disappointed to see her go.  I believe Mariah would excel in any situation.”
