8 Inch NAILS Construction Inc Reviews
Based on 14 Google reviews, this contractor has an average rating of 5 out of 5 stars.
Josh provided a very reasonable estimate of the job and kept me informed throughout the bathroom remodels. His crew showed up on time, cleaned up each day and were very nice. Quality work! I love my custom walk in shower. Thank you!
Josh helped me with a project that ended up scoping a little higher in work than originally expecting. Throughout the project, communication was clear, and work was done well. I had no doubt that my house was in good hands. When I have work again, I will definitely consider 8 Inch Nails again!
Josh is FANTASTIC! Very capable and of highest quality construction. We have used Josh and his company over many years, from bath remodels to custom window installation. He is our go to company for any remodeling job. Can’t say enough good things!
