“ I recently had the pleasure of working with The Oak Standard for a basement remodel and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional, responsive, and easy to work with. They took the time to understand my vision for the space and offered valuable suggestions to make the most of the layout. One of the standout features of the remodel is the custom bookshelves. They are not only beautiful and functional, but also expertly crafted with great attention to detail. They are the perfect addition to my basement and I have received many compliments from guests on their design and craftsmanship. Overall, I highly recommend The Oak Standard for any remodeling project. They are reliable, skilled, and dedicated to delivering exceptional results. Thanks for the great work!”

“The Oak Standard did do an astonishing job on our basement remodel. From start to finish, Joseph and his incredibly talented team knocked it out of the park. My personal opinion, you won’t find a better building crew than the Amish craftsmen. You can try, but nah, not possible. Every detail that Amish man Chris and his boys put int our family build was perfect. Right down to the friendly and professional manners to the beautifully crafted one-of-a-kind barn that they created from scratch and did so flawlessly. Beyond the build, the network of professionals like the plumber, HVVAC and electrician were very pleasurable experiences as well.”

“ I had a vision of what I wanted but wasn't sure if it would turn out right or if my vision was even a good one. Joseph and the team really helped mold my vision into reality and provided feedback and advice along the way. They were great during the process, frequently checking in on my satisfaction with the process. If there was something I wanted to change they were more than accommodating. They were quick too, I didn't have to wait very long for the project to start and once it did they barreled through it. I worked with Joseph, Steve, Ben and Maria at one point or another in the project and they are all great!”

“ The Oak Standard are fantastic. They spent ample time with me helping to find the countertops I was looking for in look and my budget, and Maria helped to redesign a portion of the countertops and island in a way that I couldn’t envision, but it is absolutely perfect and beyond what I could hope for! The team handled subcontractor coordination with ease and were prompt in their responses and scheduling of the work. Would absolutely work with them again!”

“ My wife and I initially reached out to the Oak Standard based on a referral from a friend. We had a very large project - to remodel a lake home built in the 1970's. It was a wood foundation house that had received many changes over the years but now we wanted a fresh start - a do-over to make it our forever home. We met with Joseph to describe our vision. He also has some great ideas to share - things we agreed would make the home beautiful. Things like a stamped concrete patio, beams high in the family room, and interior doors & trim. We also met his wife, Maria, who was an interior designer. She really helped with defining the interior feel as well as with the selection of cabinets, shelves, flooring, fixtures, and paint. They were both so helpful. When we ran into challenges, usually due to the age of the home and building code back then, Joseph and his team presented options to help us determine the best solutions to meet those challenges. When it came to construction, the Oak Standard team was quick without sacrificing quality. We are very happy with their work and would definitely recommend the Oak Standard.‘

“ Honest, transparent, prompt, communicative, and top-notch craftsmanship! What more could you ask for in a general contractor? We purchased a new townhouse and couldn't be more pleased with The Oak Standard's work in our Master Suite and in our Living Room. When the time is right, we will be calling The Oak Standard again to help us with additional rooms in our home.‘

“ We could not be happier with Joseph and the team at Oak Standard. We interviewed several builders for our porch project and none were as professional and transparent as Oak Standard. They were thorough, listened, and produced a high-quality product that looks incredible on our house.

“ I am a construction teacher. I care very much about the quality of a build. We had The Oak Standard come to our home to build our deck as well as finish the drywall in our basement after a flood. They were incredible even to my picky standards. They evaluated our situation, came up with fantastic ideas, asked our opinion, great communication, so incredibly happy with the pre build communication. The crew that came in and built our deck were quality craftsmen, hard workers, extremely polite, and did a great job keeping the worksite very clean. I would use The Oak Standard every time for any outdoor construction. The Oak Standard came back and finished the drywall in the basement. Again, they asked questions to make sure we were on the same page before anything happened. This crew was also incredible for all the same reasons listed above. I am not the kind of person that would give these high reviews often. I have been so incredibly impressed with this company and will certainly be using them again.”

“ The Oak Standard did a terrific job with all aspects of my roof damage insurance claim. They performed the initial repair work. But then they also stuck with me through my fight with the insurance company until we successfully got a complete roof replacement approved. The new roof looks great and the roofing crew were all easy to work with. Next came gutter replacement, and the guttering crew was terrific, we got new, larger custom gutters and downspouts and they look fantastic! In the course of roofing and guttering, whatever they discovered wood rot, those damaged sections were also replaced. The Oak Standard carpentry team had also done some previous external wood repairs and we have been very pleased with that workset ever since. This is a trustworthy organization, I highly recommend them, and I certainly will use them again.’

“ Oak Standard did a fantastic job transforming our back yard with a stamped concrete patio. Not only did the patio come out looking gorgeous, but Joseph and his team were quick to respond to questions and were able to finish the job quickly. I would highly recommend Oak Standard.‘

‘ I hired Oak Standard to handle whole-house flooring, painting, and some minor cabinet reconfiguration before selling my home. Joseph, the owner, and Steve did an outstanding job. Joseph came out to quote the project, and within a week, they started the work and completed everything in just 9 days. Either Joseph or Steve was on-site daily to oversee the progress and ensure everything stayed on track. The workers were quick, efficient, friendly, and always cleaned up after themselves. Joseph was also flexible, accommodating change orders we requested during the project. What impressed me most was the integrity Joseph and his team displayed, along with the high quality of their work. I highly recommend them—100%! Since I was selling the home, Oak Standard even allowed me to pay for their services from the sale proceeds.’.
