What Clients Are Saying About A D Construction

''I highly recommend A D Construction and their owners, Tony and Shannon Demma. They recently completed construction of my new home and I am thrilled with the outcome. It has been a joy to work with both of them. Tony is a master contractor, a true artist. He doesn't use just any materials; every piece of wood, nail, flooring, roofing that goes into the creation of the house is hand-selected, every element and component is mulled over. I've seen Tony literally make something out of nothing; what others would consider junk or scraps or ugly, Tony can transform into something valuable and useful and beautiful. He has a quick mind, always turning ideas over, always figuring out ways to add to the overall fluidity of the design. I get the impression that Tony is not only great at what he does, but that he loves what he does. It comes across loudly in the breathtaking spaces he creates. Tony takes incredible pride in his craft, and it is wildly evident in his superior craftsmanship. Shannon is an owner's best friend. Always available, personable, optimistic, and reassuring, Shannon has a vast repertoire of design ideas from which to draw upon. She knows how to take a room and not only make it look chic and elegant, but to make it feel like home. She really listens to what the client is trying to verbalize, and synthesizes that information into a cohesive, viable design aesthetic. Shannon's taste is highly cultivated and sophisticated, but her eye for unique design seems more intuitive than anything else. She can walk into a construction site, the structure of the house still skeletal, and know exactly what needs to happen in order for the owner's vision to come across. I can't say enough good things about these to stellar human beings. I recommend their services without hesitation. In actuality, it is an honor for me to not only have worked with them over the course of the last couple of years, but to be in a position where I can speak to their abilities as trailblazers in their field.'' Karen Reid

''I can honestly say that I have had the good fortune to be able to experience AD Construction’s talents and professionalism from “both sides of the table.” As a residential architect, I have trusted Tony and his crew with my designs for almost a decade. I have found Tony to be easy to work with, intelligent and an integral part of the success of a finished project. After listening to clients rave about their experiences and witnessing AD Construction’s craftsmanship, it wasn’t difficult to decide who to hire when remodeling my own home. Tony has completed two complicated projects at my house and both were done with the same extraordinary level of craftsmanship and respect that I had witnessed on my clients’ projects. His job site demeanor and interaction with clients and their families has made working with him a pleasure. For all these reasons I can recommend AD Construction to my clients with confidence.'' Chris Grasso

''From the moment we met Shannon and Tony we knew we were in good hands. They are both very professional. Our project was handled as promptly as possibly and the construction sight was kept as clean as possible. Shannon was very helpful with decorating ideas. She provided skilled craftsman to construct pieces we needed. She returned every phone call promptly. We will definitely use A D Construction again and are pleased to be a reference for their work.'' Gary & Lynn Ketelsen
