": Ray was very helpful in realizing our dream extensions. Our project included building a two story additions. A new family room and a new master bedroom including master bathroom. All other architects were out of our price range. We were glad to find Ray because we could afford him. He didn't use a computer rendering of what our project would look like so we were limited to reading the blueprints. At first Ray made blueprints of the new extension with a 3 foot offset from the property line because it was against the ordinance to build new structures less than 6 ft. We had an existing exterior wall 3 feet from the property line. This is where I made a mistake to not question Ray. Ray's advice was to stay away from filing for variances. I let him continue with writing up the blueprints. I submitted the plans to the building department for approvals. It took months and while I was waiting, I called the town and asked them about the 3 foot offset. Remember, I had a existing pre-ordinance wall already there. Why couldn't I just extend that wall ? They said to me "that's a question your architect should be asking us". They wouldn't answer my question so I had to call Ray to calol them to get an answer. This delayed getting the permits another month. When he finally got the answer, it was "yes" we could just extend the existing wall without filing a variance. Ray had to draw up new plans and resubmit the plans and then the town rejected his plans. This was extremely frustration to us because it had nothing to do with the extension. It was about minor details. So that took another month. Again, Ray had to resubmit plans. Through all this Ray was very gracious and apologized to us but it wasn't all his fault. Overall he is a good architect but you have to question him more. If you're not happy with his plans, he will do whatever possible to satisfy you."

"It was well done. Everything was cleaned up nicely. He showed up on time and gave me a fair price. He was reliable and showed up on time."

"I am very lucky to have found Mettle Contracting; their attention to detail, and their desire to get everything right was a pleasure. Installing the original pocket doors in my prewar apartment was a challenge which they easily met. Mettle also installed a hinged metal lid to my roof that I am also extremely happy with. Their work ethic is excellent, and I would not hesitate to recommend them for any kind of project!"

"Anthony has become an extended family member. He treated our "project" as if he were building his own home. He gave as much attention to every detail and care in the building process as if he and his family were going live in our home. He is extraordinarily professional and caring. He never ever cut a single corner. In fact, he often did a lot extra without ever charging us. He was able to take the vision we had in mind for our home and make it better than we had thought it could be. He was with us from our first meeting with the town boards to the day of completion. I recommend him highly."
