Hernandez Construction built our offices in 2007. Recently, we needed some maintenance to keep our building looking as great as it did when it was first completed. I reached out to Alex and his team to help point me in the right direction. Mike came out to do a site visit, assessed the scope of the minor projects that needed to get done and contacted the original vendors. Once the work was done, they followed up to make sure it was done right. To come back eight years later and take the time with me is a true testament to their commitment to their clients. I would recommend Hernandez Construction to anyone looking to build!
