I knew from the referral I got that Rick was good.  I just had no idea how good until the project started.  
Work started ahead of schedule and, if the rains hadn't interrupted, would have been done early as well.  
You know you've got an exceptional contractor when he shows up every day for weeks, rain-or-shine, to work
on and supervise the job personally.  The horror stories I'd heard of other contractors bidding a job, starting
work, then disappearing for weeks at a time leaving rubble in their wake (and of cutting corners where corners
shouldn't be cut) were totally absent with Rick.  Rick's way of doing business is exceptional; his focus on satisfying me,
the owner, was incredible.  I might have been able to find a "lower" bid initially, but I'm convinced that in the final cost,
Rick's way of doing business was actually the highest possible quality at the most reasonable cost.  Thanks!
