Home Additions Customer Testimonial from Jamie C. in Arnold, MD

I wanted to give a brief testimonial to talk about exceptional things that can happen with a young couple growing their life.

My wife and I had just had our first child and were looking for very first home. We had a limited budget and as it turns out, a fixer-upper was the best thing that we could purchase with the mortgage that we were approved for. Our realtor did an exceptional job of finding us a perfect location, but man – we had such a long road in front of us, or so we thought.

My father-in-law knew a general contractor that he had worked with on his home that he was really happy with. The company is called Northern Craft construction– Bruce Northcraft was the general contractor.

The place we picked out, even though a great location – needed a whole lot of work. At first, I thought the best way to fix up our new home would be as a do it yourselfer. Or so I thought— I’m so glad we met Bruce because he came in and looked at and pointed out all the possibilities and really worked with us on the pricing and materials. The home had outdated, gross worn—and smelly—carpeting, and an unfinished basement with a lot of potential.

What started out as a two bedroom one bath, after Bruce’s amazing work – turned into a three bedroom, two bath and what was really great, the remodeling increased the value of our home.

Bruce’s Crew came in and ripped up all the carpeting and replaced it with hardwood flooring. Our basement was completely gutted and in what seem to matter of only a few weeks, was transformed into an amazing living room, an additional bedroom, and a full bath. Bruce has this 3-D program on his laptop and he sat down with us and showed us what our living space could look like. I wish I had before and after pictures because what we ended up with was even better than the computer rendering!

Thank you Bruce and the Northern Craft crew – you made our life so much easier and now, the extra bedroom has really paid off because we just had her second child!

We’ll use Northern Craft when we look for our next home!
