When we selected Castlebawn Construction to do a major renovation of our recently-purchased, period home in Rathfarnham, I had only one objective in mind; to get the work done to the highest possible standard within budget and timelines. I was not interested in making friends with the builders and felt certain that my perfectionism would lead to stress and quarrels sooner or later. However, Joe worked patiently and professionally with me to understand our exacting requirements. He and his exceptional team delivered exactly what we needed to an excellent standard within timelines and budget. In addition, throughout the process, Joe went well “beyond the call of duty” in dealing with changes, suggesting improvements himself, dealing with issues as they arose and importantly, maintaining excellent relations with our future neighbours. This included Joe himself spending an entire Bank Holiday Sunday dealing with an overflowing sewer pipe!! We have been living in the house for some time now without any issues whatsoever and with great confidence that should anything arise, Joe will be on hand to sort it out. As you can probably guess, there were no arguments at all and we found Joe and his team a pleasure to work with. I would have no hesitation recommending Castlebawn Construction to friends and family.
