To Whom It May Concern:

I have worked in the Construction Special Inspection industry for 10+ years; our corporation (Carlson Testing, Inc) performs quality assurance, field supervision and project special inspection on a wide variety of projects all over the state.

 

My husband and I hired Steve McCann Cactus Canyon Construction on a residential project after doing thorough research and asking for referenced for the work he was doing was going to be something I wanted not only top-notch service on but handled with honesty, care and reliability. All feedback I received was absolutely incredible and the reference checks paid off.

 

Any and all work on multiple projects that Steve handled was managed as agreed; he was professional and handled himself in a self-directed manner with the utmost integrity in tact.

He & his team demonstrated substantial knowledge, experience and attention to detail in executing the various requests we wanted around our small farm.

 

He has a proven his range of experience with remodeling, creating from the beginning of a project or simply making safer a building technique with his end results and I'd be more than happy to send over numerous pictures to show his top-notch, professional work.

 

There are no surprises with Steve and Cactus Canyon Construction as we have seen happen with so many others as this is the field we are in. I would recommend his team to anyone !! He is an excellent problem solver and contributes valuable guidance when asked for input. I will absolutely use him again on any projects that may arise.

 

Respectfully Submitted,

- "Dear Steve, Thank-you so much for the awesome job you did on the fence. I would recommend you to everyone I know. Your work is quality, and done in a timely manor. You are kind, easy to be around and a man of your word. Honest and respectable. I am enjoying and starting to landscape my new world in the new yard you helped create for me. I have waited a long time for this fence and it was worth every penny and then some. I hope you and your family are all doing well. Thanks Again". Renee H - Terrebonne, OR - October 2007

-"Steve, Thank you ever-so-much for the excellent slate work you did in my Bend home. The new entry way is elegant and the hearth you created from scratch is a great complement to my wood stove. Your craftsmanship is superb and the job was performed in an expedient and professional manner. I was so pleased that you were able to complete the work with minimal guidance and an extra bonus was a result that reflects artistry as much as skill.  Cactus Canyon Construction is first on my list for any future work!
