We contracted with David Bernacki to put a sunroom on our house late in the fall of 2025. From our initial meeting all the way through the process he put us at ease. He's a very kind and considerate man and he was always available by phone or text anytime we had a question. He thoroughly explained every aspect of the project and made several suggestions that we found helpful. His team was considerate and efficient. Thank you Phil for giving us a heads up as to who was coming and when. Their work on our project was exceptional and the job site was cleaned up every night. Special thanks to Steve . I definitely would use this company again for any future projects.Thank you David for our beautiful sunroom.

We did entire basement which included 1/2 bath, 16x16 closet, home gym, custom dog shower, and a living room/open eating area.Also, we did a heating system and laundry/dryer and the heating system is keeping us toasty warm this season.The entire team was friendly and tidy- never once did they leave garbage around. Which if you have pets is so important.Dave and the contractors gave important feedback of pros and cons of each decision and completed tasks in an extremely efficient manner. Phil kept the project moving and consistently made sure we were happy and going above and beyond to achieve the desired look.We look forward to many more projects.

When I think about the blank canvas our basement was before we got started, it felt overwhelming to consider all the possibilities, options, and personal preferences—let alone how it would all actually get done. We truly could not have asked for a better team of contractors than CDRC.From the initial meeting with Dave, he immediately put our minds at ease, assuring us that he would take care of everything and deliver our family’s dream space. The entire crew was incredibly professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. With Phil overseeing the project, he made sure everyone was on time every day, the worksite was extremely clean, and every detail was handled with care. Despite all the major construction, I never once felt like they didn’t treat our home as if it were their own.Jeremy was absolutely AMAZING with the trim work, and his and Dave’s attention to detail was next-level—even around the soffits, which made my wife especially happy. Joe, the electrician, walked us through every scenario and did outstanding work. CDRC also caught things other contractors didn’t, including leveling our floor with a new layer of concrete so our flooring turned out perfect.Any time I had a question, Bill and the crew were right there to address it. Fabian’s tile work was immaculate. This truly was a dream team of contractors, and the final result exceeded our expectations in every way. Now my family and I have the walk-out space we always dreamed of.The only downside? After seeing how incredible their work is, I don’t think we’ll be able to stop doing house projects. Absolute 10 out of 10!!!!!

Dave, Phil and his entire team are extremely professional and prompt at responding to every email and text no matter the time of day. Their work is exceptional and I wouldn’t recommend anyone else to remodel any of my future projects. Highly recommend Capital District Contractor's 110%

CDRC recently built an addition on our house and we couldn't be happier! Dave, Phil, Steve, Andy, and their crews were wonderful to work with. Phil's attention to detail is incredible and Steve is one of the hardest working guys I've ever seen! A construction project always has some surprises and bumps along the way and it's how they are handled and communicated that matter the most. CDRC was excellent in this way and worked really hard to keep the project moving along on time and, most importantly, on budget. Great people and great work. I highly recommend CDRC for any addition or renovation project you've been thinking about.

I have had the pleasure of having capital district contractors do our home basement and our 4bay add on garage with Porte coche. They always go above and beyond for us so much that I consider the owner family. He has the right contacts for each project and is always so easy to work with. I wouldn’t let anyone else touch my home

We have had work done in 2 different houses with Capital District and have been more than satisfied with all aspects of the work. One major home addition including bathroom and small deck. A large double deck was also replaced in that home. Another large deck was removed and replaced more recently in second home. Price is fair, workers are top notch. I have recommended him to friends who also were more than happy with the work done.The crew are professional providing quality workmanship. They show up when agreed, follow up if there is any issue or a change in plans.I would highly recommend.

We had a great experience with CDRC. We had an existing vinyl deck that we converted to a screen room. From the planning stages through finished project Dave and Phil were very helpful and thorough. Project was completed for a good price, on time, and we are very happy with the final result. Will definitely look forward to working with them again on future projects.

We recently had Dave, Phil and teams renovate our kitchen and family room. All were professional and communicative, a pleasure to work with. Any minor issues that arose were explained to us and then addressed. The quality of workmanship and attention to detail exceeded our expectations! They will be starting another project for us very soon.

We couldn’t be happier with our experience working with Capital District Residential Contractors on our screened-in porch project! From start to finish, the entire team demonstrated exceptional professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.The crew was punctual, respectful, and maintained an impressively clean job site throughout the entire build. Their artisan-level workmanship is evident in every corner of the finished porch — it’s not just functional, it’s beautiful.What really stood out was their responsiveness and adaptability. When unexpected design changes were required due to updated building codes and inspector feedback, the team handled everything swiftly and seamlessly, keeping us informed and involved every step of the way.Even with the adjustments, they delivered the project on time and at budget — a rare and much-appreciated feat. We highly recommend Capital District Residential Contractors to anyone looking for quality work and a stress-free construction experience. Thank you for bringing our vision to life!

Simply put, the only contractor I trust 100%. They always answer the phone and any issues I ever had were addressed immediately.

We recently had our basement finished by Capital District. Dave the owner of the company and Phil his PM gave us ideas along the way to maximize the space and add nice touches we didn't think of. From start to finish they were clear on each step of the process and each craft was professional and true craftsmanship. The property was always left clean and free of debris . We highly recommend them and would not hesitate to use them on our next project.

We just completed several major projects with Dave - we built a 2 story 16x16 expansion, re-sided our house and finished our basement. In the basement we now have an open area with a gas fireplace, full bathroom and a bedroom. Dave built a staircase and a window Egress for us. The 2nd floor of the expansion is now our 16x16 master closet. We also converted our old master closet into a small 2nd floor laundry room. Throughout the entire process, Dave and his team were wonderful to work with. The quality of work was top notch. We would highly recommend Dave and his company to others. Phil, Justin, Andy, Jeremy, Vince, Jeff were core team members that worked with us over the course of about 7 months. Chris was the draftsman we worked with - also terrific. Whenever issues were encountered during the build, we were able to work through them together and come up with creative solutions. The pricing is fair - we have found Dave to be honest and trust worthy. What he says he will do, he does. Phil was our project manager and very much our go to person for any day to day needs as the work progressed. Thanks to Dave, we really love all of our new spaces and our kids now have a great area (an entire floor) to play with their friends. Pictures attached are of our new master closet (prior to us filling it up with clothes and installing a chandelier and floor length mirror). Also included pictures of our basement bathroom.

We had our basement finished by CDRC. Dave is the owner of the company and is the one who visits for the estimate. Phil gave us ideas along the way to maximize the space and add nice touches/improvements we didn't think of. From start to finish they were clear on each step of the process. This was our first big job requiring contractors and we will not hesitate to go back to Dave and his awesome crew for future projects.

Trustworthy, reliable contractors that do amazing work. I clean for them, so I know first hand that every customer I’ve spoken to is happy and satisfied and I see it as well. This is a well known company that is liked and respected throughout the Capital District. You wouldn’t be disappointed!

I had the pleasure of working with CDRC on building a two-story porch, and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. The craftsmanship was top-notch, and the attention to detail was evident in every aspect of the project. When minor issues arose, Dave was an absolute pleasure to work with—he addressed everything quickly and professionally. His communication and responsiveness made the entire experience smooth. I would absolutely hire CDRC again for future projects and highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality work and excellent customer service!

Capital District Residential Contractors did an excellent job working with my wife and I in designing and building a four-season room for our house. Overall, the process was seamless, and although there were some hiccups along the way, Dave and his team were quick to address any problems that arose. Also, the costs for their work were fair and reasonable.I'd recommend them without hesitation!Carl Ruppert

I hired Dave and his team to install three egress windows in our finished basement. His price was fair and his team led by Phil were excellent. They worked in some pretty challenging weather conditions but still completed the job on time and on budget. The finishing work they did inside was done very well. My elderly mother was there most of the time and said that everyone was polite and professional. I will be recommending Capital District Residential Contractors to my family and friends and will definitely use them again.

Dave, Phil, and his team were tasked to remodel our whole basement to an apartment for my father in law.From the framing and electrical to the finishing, everyone showed up and worked diligently to make sure everything was to our specifications. The work and execution were beyond our expectations! (I really should post the before pics... But just imagine a completely unfinished basement;)We would definitely hire them back to do more work. Look no further if you want effortless, professional, and exceptional people to work with, along with spectacular renovations!! We love you guys!!

Dave and his team did work on my deck that overlooked a pool and a pool deck a few years back. They replaced everything with trex( floor rails and stairs). I had an issue with the stairs but they came up with a good design that saved me some money. This year 2024 I had some issues with some of the boards and two post. They came back and took care of it for me. If you need any kind of work on your house like a deck they are the ones to call. They do great work and they stand by it. Tim

We couldn’t ask for a better experience having Capital District Residential Contractors build our sunroom. Dave gave us a detailed plan on the process and was always available for any questions. Dave, his project manager Phil and the entire team delivered a sunroom that exceeded our expectations. Look no further if you are looking for a contractor that is reliable and delivers a quality project.

Update: While doing some work on my patio, I noticed termite damage in the wood under my sliding doors (in the original part of the house, not the new sunroom). I got the termites taken care of but needed the wood replaced quickly due to guests arriving in a couple of weeks. I contacted CDRC and they quickly came out to assess the damaged wood and then got the repair scheduled and completed in time for me to finish my work before guests were to arrive. Very responsive and good quality work.I added a sunroom on to my house. Once we got through the permit process that was difficult due to the city of Saratoga Springs and not an issue of CDRC, they did high quality work and finished the project in good time. They even finished to a certain level ahead of time to work with my schedule and people visiting. Easy to work with and responsive to requests. Better pricing than other contractors I got pricing from as well.

Homeowners who need confidence of the job done right the first time, need not look any further then Capitol District Residential Contractors. Dave and his team will guarantee 100% the job will be completed on time, on budget, and to your complete satisfaction. That's why, any and all contracting work needed, Dave and his team , are my builders/remodelers of choice.

I went through website to set up a free estimate. David called me to set up a date and time. After we agreed on a date and time I explained where I lived and what I was looking to have done. Then he no-called and no-showed.
Jason Maguire

I had a somewhat disappointing experience with CDRC. I spoke with Dave, the owner, about the possibility of adding a master bedroom/bath/closet and inquiring about a quote for finishing a three-season room.Initially, communication was good. However, after receiving the quote, we decided to proceed only with finishing the three-season room due to the high cost ($362 per sq foot) for the full addition, which did not cover various fees and additional expenses.After leaving a voicemail about our decision, unfortunately, we didn't receive a response. Despite trying to follow up three times, with promises of a callback, it didn't materialize, and I took that as a sign.Our project, although on the smaller side at $25,000, still represented a significant investment for us. It would have been appreciated to receive a simple yes or no without the additional three weeks of uncertainty. Also to mention, the 3 seasons room was 113 square feet and had infrastructure already, so again $220 square foot on that room still seemed high, but we were willing to pay for the higher level of service, professionalism & work, which we didn't get.I believe that maintaining a reputation for "craftsmanship & professionalism" should involve responding to basic messages, especially as CDRC charges premium prices. This experience leaves me questioning if smaller projects are given lower priority and raises concerns about communication during the actual project.This is just my honest opinion & is limited to my experience only.

If there were more than 5-stars for a review, I'd give even more. Dave and his amazing crew saved me from a huge botched job and my original contractor abandoning me after I paid him over $100k. The professionalism, knowledge and work ethic of all of the employees was at the highest level. They finished my big rehab in less that 12 days, where others would have taken 2 months. Everything about their work was 100+%, was refreshing and a pleasure to have done. I'd reccomend Dave and CDRC for any job, large or small. It is said, you get what you pay for. Well, I paid for and got the very best!! THANK YOU Dave, Ken, Andy, Donnie and Josh. Looking forward to many more projects in the future. CG

Dave and his team have outdone themselves again. When needing any projects done from building decks to remodeling bathrooms, Capital District Contractors are the only team we'd use. Their professionalism and work ethics are always on point. Very pleased with the tile work that was done in the shower and overall finished bathroom. Thank you for another fine job!!

Dave and his team added a 3 season room onto our house and the experience was all positive. He is knowledgeable, practical and provided some great advice. Likewise, his project manager Phil was very helpful in guiding the plans as well as coordinating the build. The rest of the team was top notch too, Bill and Chris who did most of the construction, Steve who kept everything going logistics wise, and Josh who did a lot the hard physical work.At the end of every day, the work site was picked up and everything was put away.They worked through some adverse weather, Steve even shoveled out the work site so progress could continue after the storm at the end of March. In all, the room took around 3 weeks from start to finish. Much quicker than I had thought possibleFor my next project, I don't need to look any further.

We had an excellent experience working with Capital Distict Residential Contractors. We couldn't be happier with the results of our finished basement! Dave and Phil and their entire team were great to work with. They were always on time, professional and courteous. They communicated with us through the entire process. The price was reasonable and the work was completed on time. The finished product was beyond our expectations. We would not hesitate to hire this company again for future home projects!

CDRC did an amazing job, again, for my home in Delmar. This is the third project I have done with them, and I am 100% satisfied. Prior to this I had my basement remodeled and the master bath. This time my project was a remodel for my full bathroom on the second floor of my home. Dave always arrives at the time he says he is going to. He is always honest with possibilities as well as helps me create the best look for my room. I never have to wait weeks for an estimate. He is thoughtful and thorough in his work. His team of demolition, electricians, plumbers, painters etc. are skilled in their trade. They are polite, and clean up when they are through with their contribution to the project. Dave is always a phone call away whenever I have concerns. I have never met a person who knows more about building and the business of contracting than Dave. He is simply a super person to work with. Thank you Dave and team for making my house beautiful. I would highly recommend CDRC for any project!

Called to get an estimate. Had a few questions about how this firm operated because it felt like a call center to me (on hold, etc). Operator would not proceed with the call without my last name. Wouldn’t answer a question, have a conversation. Just “what’s your last name? What’s your last name? What’s your last name? I’ll try another contractor.

I cannot give any positive feedback for the excavating, foundation work or sealing of my basement that was done in June.Wet cement being dumped on my neighbors property ("not my guys") to my gas line being bent preventing my hot water heater, furnace and stove not to function and National Grid digging up the lawn just reseeded. (again, "we didn't do that")This company and its salesman will not be recommended to my neighbors and my hospital coworkers.

Dave and his team recently finished a large project on our house (adding a second story). We were impressed with their efforts on several fronts. When we first met with Dave, he offered ideas on how to finance the project. He was honest, transparent and pragmatic about how to manage the project when we were faced with challenges arising from the pandemic (delays on raw materials, increased costs, etc.). Additionally, Dave and his team were able to complete the job earlier than initially projected, which was impressive given the current staffing challenges for construction projects. We enjoyed working with Dave and his team and hope to work with them again on future projects.

We used Capital District to construct a new sunroom on our home in Niskayuna. We are very happy with the experience and how the sunroom came out and would recommend Capital District. Though not the cheapest quote we received, I believe the construction is of higher quality, for example as the Sunroom is elevated over an existing patio and well insulated, we scoped in plywood coverings to keep rodents out of the insulation, which was not included in some of the other quotes but we felt was important given the many chipmunks in our yard and the destruction rodents can do. No corners were cut and quality subcontractors were used for work that was subcontracted out (Nolan did the plans, Crisafulli did the split, Ridgeline Roofing did the roof). While issues arise with scheduling and winter time construction, the project was largely on-schedule and fit our timeline and expectations, which is noteworthy considering the project was started in the fall of 2020 during the pandemic. The windows turned out to have a longer lead time than expected (pandemic) which added about a month, but our goal was to be in by March and we were. We had a leak around one of the skylights during a late winter thaw and the issue was corrected promptly and professionally. It is worth noting that it's a standing seam roof with a low grade. The water damage was repaired by Capital District and we have had no issues since the repair). No surprises on price or with scope changes (we added a few things).We would recommend Capital District.

We have used CDC for two big projects. They first build an awesome sunroom, with 4 sliding doors leading out out onto two separate decks. We we so happy with Dave & his crew, they were the first ones we called for our next project, a 2 car garage & mudroom with plenty of storage above the garage.. I would highly recommend!!

Some very talented craftsmen! They were flexible with any design changes as the project progressed. Did a full kitchen remodel--complete teardown to the studs which included removing three interior walls and installing hidden beams in the ceiling. Also had plumbing re-routed, electric service upgraded, new hardwood floors dovetailed into existing flooring, cabinets installed and significant lighting upgrades.Overall great job--would use again.

My Husband and I had our 4 Season Room totally remodeled and the finishing product was exactly what I had envisioned! Everyone of Dave’s team is extremely professional and extremely talented. Phil, Dave’s foreman on my job was so talented and so helpful in maki g some of the decisions as we progressed. He was a pleasure to work with! We were very lucky in choosing Capital District Contractors! I would highly recommend and hope to have future projects in my house.

CDC did a major remodeling and new construction on our older home. Completely gutting and remodeling the upstairs, adding a small addition, adding a front porch and new siding and roof. A major upgrade and they did it quickly and efficiently. They did a fantastic job and Dave stands behind his work with 100% integrity.

Capital District Residential Contractors built a two car garage with a 450 square foot apartment above. It came out beautiful and I have had dozens of compliments on the design and overall look of the carriage house.I would recommend them to anyone and have done that already.Dave Bernacki, the owner, is a class guy who stands behind his work. Great experience working with him!

2 quick points about Dave and his guys: First, Dave and his crew have a positive vision about the project at hand and show a "can do" attitude. Second, the work is professionally done. If you're hiring these guys it will be done right from top to bottom, no short cuts.Capital District Contractors really did a incredible job on our remodel. It was an enormous task with ups and downs, due to the 1860(ish) year old house, but it was definitely nice to have a crew that I could trust on my side.

My husband and I hired Capital District Contractors approx 12 years ago for an addition on our home. We were very satisfied with the quality of the work and professionalism of the staff. Dave is very accessible for questions and pleasant to deal with. I just hired them again recently for a kitchen and two bathroom renovation. I have recommended Dave to several friends who have ultimately used him for additions, decks, and kitchens, and all were highly satisfied and have been return customers as well. Great company to deal with!

We have had Capital District Contractors complete two major jobs for us: remodeling our lower level to construct an in-law apartment and the addition of a four season room. We can't say enough good things about the quality of the work, the responsiveness of the owner and site manager, and the integrity of the employees. We would not hesitate to contact them again for future projects or to recommend their company to potential customers!

Dave and his crew were great to work with. We are very happy with the basement they finished. The final total came in right around budget and the timing was pretty close to expectation too. It was tough getting supplies due to pandemic related things, but they made it work. Their team (and the sub contractors) were great and always respectful of us and our home. Capital District Residential Contractors are definitely on call list for the next home improvement we do.

Capital District Residential Contractors build a quality product. We hired CRDC to build a screen room on the back of our home. Dave’s team are careful and skilled craftsman with attention to detail. Workmen showed up on time and worked efficiently and cleaned up at the end of the day. I would recommend Capital District Residential Contractors highly. Great builders, great job!

CDRC are the best in the business. Dave and his team put a two story addition on our home. From beginning to end it was a terrific experience. We were well informed throughout the entire remodel and Dave was always available to address any questions or concerns. I cannot recommend them enough. Great business, great people!
Larry Weatherbee

One of the best and largest residential contractors around. Dave promptly showed-up at our house in a professional vehicle and professional dressed. He was very informative and professional. Dave and his company are top notch from the vehicles they drive, the CDRC shirts they wear, the tools they use, etc. I hired a small young contractor about 10 years ago and he required a large deposit and was always asking for money. Dave is not that guy. Dave's company is so large and he does so much work that the smaller companies can't even compare.If you are looking for a company that is reliable, professional and structurally sound, hire Dave to do your work. Dave and his crew are truly the best.

We had a huge job to do: replace half of our house foundation, which was cracked and bowing. CDRC has the experience and expertise needed to get such a serious job done. They completed the work beautifully. The house is secure and the new foundation half no longer leaks with ground water, giving us extra usable space. We did encounter a few snags along the way, due to the company having to outsource some work to other contractors, but the owner, Dave, was always available to fix any problems immediately. Only thing keeping them from 5 stars was the inconsistent communication throughout the process. We never really knew, day to day, when people would show up to complete work and what they were working on. And extra expenses encountered during the process weren't discussed until after the fact, causing a bit of financial stress. But the end result is most important and the quality work speaks for itself. We have additional renovation plans to tackle, and we will be hiring them again when needed.

We had to put my grandma’s house on the market but before we could we had to have some of the sheetrock fixed which capital district contractors took care for us! Thank you for the awesome job and we will definitelyuse them in the future!

We hired Capital District Contractors to design and construct a three-season room and deck addition to our home, and we are extremely pleased with the results. Dave Bernacki and his crew were always professional. They did it all! Framing, sheetrock, flooring, windows, painting, electric, and they made every step easy for us as customers. We always felt informed as to how each phase of the build would happen and when. The construction was done over the winter, which meant that there were a handful of short delays due to cold weather but, nevertheless, everything was completed in a timely fashion and to the high standard that we hoped for. If we ever had questions or concerns, Dave was just an email away, and almost always responded within hours. We genuinely could not be happier that we hired Capital District Contractors and would definitely recommend them.

I don't have an opinion on the business itself. I went to the web site and filled out the robo call back option. If they did call they didn't think my business was important enough to leave a message.Edit: After leaving the original review, the owner of the company thought it appropriate to look me up on Facebook so he could send me a message regarding my "negative review". He insisted I never filled out the request for a free estimate, among other comments, providing me a somewhat lengthy message.I admit there is a small chance I somehow screwed up the simple process they provide, but that seems unlikely.Unfortunately the discomfort this message created forces me to edit my review.

Capital District Contractors does beautiful work, particularly sunrooms. Dave is always available to answer any questions and is very attentive throughout the project.

This review for Capital District Contractors is long overdue. In the spring we decided to have a sunroom added. I had a good feeling the first time I met Dave Bernacki. Normally, I would normally be skeptical regarding what's promised and what is really received. However, Mr. Bernacki put us at ease with his easy going, no pressure estimate.We knew upfront the costs, what we were getting into and when things would be done. He offered ideas that cost less and gave us so much more. For a contractor to actually guide us while reducing our costs left us impressed to say the least.Even more impressive, they showed up on time, all the time. His carpenters are craftsmen. His work inimitable. This company, Capital District Contractors, and owner Dave Bernacki went above and beyond the call of duty.I strongly recommend and urge anyone looking for home improvements to call today!!! You'll be happy you did!!!

Most reasonable cost estimate and very personable owner and workers. Dave Bernacki told us up front that he was my best friend on the job, and he was absolutely right. We had our kitchen and dining room gutted and a bearing wall removed. Dave made some additional recommendations during the renovation which were valuable to the integrity of the project. A couple of things that needed fixing were done with no questions asked. We are highly satisfied with Capital District Contractors and the finished product. Have had positive comments from friends and family. We strongly recommend CDC for your project.

Dave is a regular advertiser in my direct mail publication; Saratoga's Best. My readers love the quality of his workmanship. He's also very responsive, has integrity and stands by his work!

As a Realtor, I recommend Dave Bernacki and his team every single time a client needs an in-law apt, sun room, addition, finished basement, or any remodel. Everyone who has hired him is 100% happy and I get nothing but rave reviews on his professionalism, ethics, the quality of work, and his team. The before & after pics on his website and testimonials speak for themselves! Dave is the best in the business.

I would NOT recommend this firm. I paid about $35k for a sunroom about 10 years ago, which at first looked nice. The one significant detail that he never clarified before construction was the treatment from the floor of the room (which does not have a full foundation) to the ground. What they installed was white painted masonry board and cheap wood trim. The paint flaked off in sheets and the wood rotted away. That was completely replaced about 3-5 years on with PVC based sheet goods and trim.About 3 years after construction, I looked out the only upstairs window that overlooks the roof to discover that one of the skylights had a trim kit installed around it, the other didn't. I contacted Dave, he told me he came out and looked at it. He said the trim kit was no longer available. (Doubtful, because I was told today it was available, and purchased separately from the window.) He said based on the fact that the window hadn't leaked, it would be fine. I'm now at the 10 year mark, and one of the skylights is almost completely rotted through on the bottom, ants are proliferating and the replacement skylight, roof deck and shingles will be about $2500. The interior sheetrock repairs will come later.I sent Dave an email, which he hasn't responded to. No matter, I won't be using them to construct anything.I am paying someone else to fix the mess, and hopefully do it right this time.

I did an 800sq/ft basement remodeling project with CDC. They were very nice to work with. I have no complaints. Dave was very responsive to my questions/concerns and all of the work was done in a very timely manner. I will definitely be going with them in the future for other projects.

It’s hard to believe that it has been a year since Dave and his crew completed the addition of our family room. The room is filled with lots of windows and an incredible fireplace being the center of attraction. The Adirondack look and feel was achieved as we requested so our room has now become our “Get Away.” The warmth the room brought during Christmas with the tree and decorations was picture perfect. We can’t say enough about the great team Dave has, from the crew that prepared the footings, to the framers to those who did the finish and fine detail work; they are all perfectionists and were great to bounce ideas off of and answer our questions. Our home is a family gathering place and is continuing to grow so the extra room that we now have is amazing. We can’t thank Dave and his team enough for the awesome job they did in creating our retreat. We would highly recommend CDC for any project you are considering.MaryAnn & Randy Stark

Dave and team, led by Ken, were very nice to work with and I would definitely recommend CDC. Both from a quality of craftsmanship as well as quality of the service. Dave’s team built us a very beautiful three season screen room, which we naturally incorporated a lot of changes to along the way. ;-) Dave was very flexible and was able accommodate all of our additional requests without issue.Dave knows his stuff and his team does quality work. Dave was very reasonable as far as cost goes...when I bid the job he was one of the most reasonable. He was also very good about sticking to his quotes and staying on budget without any hassle which was a great stress reducer for a job this big.Ken was also a very great project lead and was very communicative. He was good about proactively reaching out to provide updates on the plan and next steps. Ken was also easy to talk to and was very client focused (not saying no and was very patient when there were changes) while also not over promising until he was sure the team could accommodate any request.If I were to say anything critical it would be that the project took longer to complete than I wanted, however I understand we contracted with Dave late in the season and he has a lot of jobs going on at all times. This is also to be expected with any big construction project.Overall my wife and I are very happy with the porch and are also glad we did the upgraded plexi-glass for the winter. Very excited to use the porch in the spring and for many years to come!

From start to finish of our basement remodel our experience with CDC was nothing but top notch and professional. Dave was great walking me through the entire process, and the project manager Ken was extremely proactive in his communication, available to talk at a moments notice, and worked through the project with me as it was happening.The workers were outstanding as well. They always left our house as neat as when they came in, took care of our house, and talked with us throughout the work to see what tweaks or changes needed to be made to fit our likes. This fluid process made a stressful situation very relaxing and enjoyable.I could not be happier with the finished product. It looks professional and 100% amazing. This was our first experience with a contracting company and I would not go with any other company moving forward. Highly recommend to anyone looking to do a home improvement job.

CDC recently completed adding a screened porch to our home. To say that we are pleased with the work they did is an understatement. The quality of the work done by their craftsmen was excellent in every detail. The customer service provided by Ken and Dave exceeded our expectations. We would highly recommend this contractor to anyone. Finally, we were pleasantly surprised that the job was completed two weeks ahead of schedule.

We are very pleased with Capital District Contractors, from initial consult with Dave to seeing and hearing from his faithful assistant Ken very regularly to know what was happening when. We’d like to also give a shoutout to Bill and Basil (framers) for our screened porch and to Gary and Paul who finished it up, with help from Jimmy. These master carpenters did great work, finished RIGHT ON TIME, they were creative and fulfilled every idea my brain could come up with as the porch developed. The quality of work done was excellent, they cleaned up every day at the end of day, and their eagerness to please the customer (me) was great. We’ll be calling them again in future.

Capital District Contractors built a 4-season sunroom and deck for us this spring and did a fabulous job. We are so very pleased with the end result. Dave and Ken made the entire process simple and painless. They were always available to answer any questions we had; and we were kept up to date on all aspects of construction from purchases to schedule. Our primary contractor, Phil, took the time to really understand what we were looking for, worked with us on the details, took our design and made it even better. The work is beyond our expectations. All of the trades were here when scheduled, kept us abreast of their progress, maintained a neat, clean and organized worksite, and were all very professional, kind and courteous. All did exemplary work from our perspective, took pride in what they were doing, and produced a high quality job. We would definitely contact Dave again for other projects we may have.
