General Contracting — Est. 2012

Renovation, done with monastic precision.

Monk is a general contracting studio for people who notice grout lines, reveal gaps, and the difference between finished and correct. We plan hard, build clean, and hand you keys — not punch lists.

What we build.

Every job runs through the same shop standard, from a powder room refresh to a full teardown-rebuild.

SVC.01 — KITCHEN

Kitchen Remodels

Layout, cabinetry, counters, and mechanicals reworked as one system, not a parts list.

SVC.02 — BATH

Bathroom Renovation

Waterproofing done right first, then the finishes you’ll actually notice every morning.

SVC.03 — ADD

Home Additions

Square footage that matches the bones of the original house, structurally and visually.

SVC.04 — WHOLE

Whole-Home Renovation

One GC, one schedule, one point of accountability for the entire scope.

SVC.05 — BSMT

SVC.05 — BSMT

Livable square footage with proper egress, moisture control, and real ceiling height.

SVC.06 — EXT

Exteriors & Decks

Siding, decking, and envelope work built to outlast the warranty on the materials.

Word of Mouth

What clients say.

They quoted a number in March and that's the number we paid in June. Never happened to us before.

Weekly photo updates meant I never had to guess what was happening while I was at work.

— S. Devries, Whole-Home Renovation

The crew treated the house like it was theirs. Clean site every single day, no exceptions.
