What our clients say
Straight from our Google reviews.
We had Drew and Kanigan Construction complete a large excavation and landscaping project for us, including flattening a large area for a garden, creating pathways, and building rock retaining walls — and we could not be happier with the results. From start to finish, Drew was professional, hardworking, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Communication was excellent throughout the project, and it was clear he takes real pride in the quality of his work and attention to detail. The finished project completely transformed our property. It's not easy finding contractors who are reliable, honest, and genuinely care about doing things properly, but Drew absolutely delivered.
Kanigan Construction did an awesome job on my driveway. The quality of the work was top-notch, the crew was professional, and everything was done exactly how we talked about. Super happy with the result and would definitely recommend them.
Drew and Wade Kanigan are responsive and prompt with their duties. I had a large quantity of topsoil delivered and they (along with a staff member) transported and spread it in my large yard all in one day. Strong young fellows with a very good work ethic, I highly recommend them.
