We have used them through an entire renovation at this point. Kitchen, bathroom, and basement. Every phase was handled professionally with clear timelines and fair pricing throughout.
Response from Hammer & Nail Etc
We are so grateful for your trust in us. Reviews like this motivate our entire team to keep raising the bar.
Courtney H.
What I appreciate most is they do not try to sell you things you do not need. Honest assessment, fair price, quality work. That is the whole formula and they have it down.
Wendy J.
The crew lead on our last job was exceptional. Explained every step, kept the work area organized, and double-checked everything before calling the job done. Details matter.
Response from Hammer & Nail Etc
Thanks for the great feedback! We are always working to earn that fifth star and appreciate you pointing us in the right direction.
Diana L.
The technician was knowledgeable and took the time to explain what needed to be done. No pressure to add unnecessary services. Clean work and they stood behind their warranty.

Their online quote matched the final invoice almost exactly. No hidden fees, no surprise line items. Just honest work at an honest price. The job itself was clean and professional.

Hammer & Nail Etc came recommended by a coworker and now I see why. Quality work, showed up on time, and the price matched the estimate. Novel concept apparently.

Replaced all the doorknobs in the house with lever handles. 10 doors total. Sounds simple but getting them all aligned and working smoothly takes skill. Hammer & Nail Etc nailed it.
