A Closer Look General Contracting recently completed our Master Bathroom remodel which included demolition and replacement of existing tile and cabinets as well as removal of a garden tub. We highly recommend this company based on their quality of work, excellent communications from start to finish, and willingness to work with us to stay within our budget. The updated bathroom is exactly what we had envisioned and we couldn't be more pleased with how things turned out. These guys go above and beyond to do the job right!

Phil Oddo and his team at Closer Look are very professional and responsive. Their attention to detail exceeds all other builders that I have worked with. They take the time to listen and understand what their clients want. This leads to a finished project that exceeds all expectations. You no longer need to reach out to multiple builders for your dream project, Closer Look can provide you with everything you will ever need and more.

Phillip Oddo is great but the most impressive thing about my family's experience with Closer Look GC is the consistency with which they deliver. We had flooring work that needed to be done and when team opened up a wall, they found extensive mold. Aside from handling the unforeseen repairs with expertise and the highest levels of craftsmanship, each person on the Closer Look staff took the time to assuage and reassure us that we were in safe hands. Outstanding work and even more impressive focus on the 'intangibles'

I’ve dealt with several contractors over the years. Some never showed up. Others that showed up to look at jobs never called me back for an estimate. Phill was responsive from the start. Once I got the estimate the job was scheduled quickly. We started with redoing our back deck and part of the door frame that had rotted out. Tony and Shane did such a great job and went above and beyond to make everything look better than before. Even though they were just replacing one beam, they repainted the whole door frame to make everything look new. The deck was reinforced to make it safer than it ever

Closer Look General Contracting provided excellent professional work for us. We had masonite siding replaced on 30% of our house, the entire house repainted in a new color (to include trim work) and new gutters installed with them. There were 3 different crews that were sent out to complete each task. All of the crews were professional in demeanor, kind, respectful and cleaned up all of the debris that was left behind. It has been a long time since we last hired a contractor where the crews actually showed up on time and did their job efficiently. Phillip is the owner of the company and he traveled
