Dear Jeff, Nelson & Virgil,

We want to express our appreciation to Martin Brothers for a job well done on our home. We are already enjoying the addition and look forward to doing so for many years. The quality and design are superb. Thank you!

Virgil, thank you for your leadership and insight in the planning and construction of our addition. You have been wonderful to work with. We appreciate your reliability, your concern for our interests, and your commitment to excellence.

We especially want to commend our foreman, Gary Zimmerman, for his leadership of the day to day construction. Throughout our project he has been an outstanding representative for your company. He has handled all matters with us and with subcontractors in a professional manner, being personable, polite and friendly. His carpentry skills are impressive. We admire his ability to incorporate our ideas and requests into our living space.

We are not only impressed with his exceptional carpentry work, but also with the way he and his team have treated our family. As the project became more invasive, Gary protected our privacy as much as possible, taking care to keep the noise level down and to
give us our personal space. That must have been especially challenging with both of us working at home.

Gary, Rick, Ty, Brian and the others have all shown a strong work ethic and have always been courteous. We appreciate the extra effort they made to keep the job site (our home) clean. Thank you for putting a great crew on our job!

Sincerely,

Bill and Karla Rieth & Family
