  • We are really happy with the work CHL did at our house. They turned our screened porch into an additional room—installed 3 windows, dry wall, electrical, added AC vent. They also repaired some of our large deck, added a stair case and replaced an exterior sliding door. Chris and his team were professional, clean, upfront and hard working. We appreciated Chris’ communication and honesty about the project and it’s completion.
