I made an inquiry despite us being well past the warranty period. They followed up promptly and sent a member of their maintenance team who was very helpful. Their after-sales service is amazing. Definitely recommend using Cape Cod - so professional!

I am a professional residential photographer and have worked with countless renovation and building professionals. I can honestly say that Cape Cod impressed me more than all others. From the quality of the craftsmanship and the high end materials, to the staff and the elite professionalism. I could not recommend Cape Cod more highly and strongly believe they are the best choice out there.

Cape Cod have just finished our renovation and we couldn't be happier. We've renovated a few times and they are by far the standout. Super professional, things ran on time, and any issues were handled with customer service at the forefront. The most impressive thing was how they handled the inevitable differences that arise during a big renovation. We would thoroughly recommend them.

We used Cape Cod for building an addition to our home. Every part of our experience working with them was excellent. Our supervisor informed us every step of the way and any issues were dealt with immediately and he made us feel relaxed. We are really happy with the outcome of making our home beautiful.
