Report
The people at Merit are great to work with. The first thing I'd probably say about this company is their attitude with regard to accountability. Their estimators and project managers are really impressive people. They have a way of catching things (inconsistencies in blueprints, etc.) early on that would otherwise become a huge problem down the road and lead to unanticipated expenses to a building owner/developer.
Their carpenters are also some of the best I've seen. I don't know where they find these guys because tradesmen of this caliber aren't exactly falling out of the trees these days.
