“We had a great experiance with Hammell Homes. Rick’s team (contractors, tile installer, electrician and plumbers) were professional and easy to work with. Our bathroom turned out stellar. We selected artisan materials that can be challenging to install, and Hammell Homes understood what was required and everything went seamlessly. We’d work with them again.”
