A recommendation from two physicians in South Carolina

We were lucky enough to discover Randy Blake in the early 1990s after having been turned away by several contractors who didn’t want to mess with a difficult and challenging job. Our house in Valle Crucis was built sometime in the 1800s, probably initially as a barn, and then converted to a frame farmhouse at least a hundred years ago. When we bought the property, the back half had to be torn off because a stream was running under the kitchen. Working off of a sketch made by an architect friend of ours, Ken Huggins, AIA., Randy and his crew turned what was an unlivable old shell of a home into an energy-efficient, beautiful gem of a house. We particularly love the wormy old chestnut wood throughout that he salvaged from the house original roof.

It was a laborious job, and we were far away in South Carolina. Randy Blake not only does beautiful work, but he is completely trustworthy and we were able to accomplish with great peace of mind and confidence what could have been an Old House money pit nightmare. Randy takes pride in what he does and will make sure it is right, and at a good price.

“Our roof was leaking badly, and no one seemed to know what to do about it. Contractors came and went, charging us money, and never solving the problem.

Randy Blake and his team were different. They took time to carefully diagnose the problem–and then they went to work, repairing not only the roof, but also the damage done to the interior of the house. They completed the project when they said they would, and they charged us exactly what they said they would. And our roof no longer leaks.

I would never hesitate to hire Randy Blake for a leaky roof or any sort of contracting that he is licensed to do. He and his team do good work, for the price they quote–and they will stand behind it. What more can you ask for?”
