Our verification notes

The 3.0 Google rating across 106 reviews is real and we are not hiding it - but for a contractor of this size those reviews largely reflect job-site and employment interactions rather than restoration clients. Weigh the Indiana Landmarks project record and the church's own published team sheet above the star average.
