WHAT OUR CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“Our construction project involved expanding a dining room and adding a family room, each of which involved careful integration of the existing structure with the new construction. Our goals were to obtain a dining room which could fit our growing family, and a family room which would allow us to remain in our home for years to come, including a complete first floor bathroom which was fully accessible. Our existing home was built with a farmhouse style exterior, and integrating the project to avoid the look of an obvious addition was important. Everything that we set out to accomplish was fulfilled by Forest View, and everyone on their construction team was highly skilled, collaborative, cooperative, and sensitive to our needs. We highly recommend them to anyone interested in a construction project."
