Report
Van Horst General Contractors finished working on my expansion project a few weeks ago. I can't say enough positive things about them. They were very professional and kept my shop open during construction. They even assisted my customers with items that were tarped off during the construction process. I had a very positive experience and cant say enough good things. I will use them again on my next project. Thank You Lindsey for keeping my project in budget and on time.
