In all honesty we couldn’t have done it without our customers. Their wishes and dreams, wants and needs - they have allowed us to provide quality end results that meet or exceed expectation.
We find no greater satisfaction than knowing our customer is pleased, and a few folks were kind enough to share their experience. Explore what these friends have to say.

"Dear Sheldon,
When we first told people of our plans to sell the house your father built for us 16 years ago and move, they all told us their favorite story or reason why moving, especially to a new house would simply be too much to go thru. All of them had tales about the trials and tribulations of moving.
We’ve lived in 15 homes. Two were rented, five had been lived in and we remodled them and this is our eighth new one. We’ve survived alomst every kind of relocation experience but this is the third time that we were where we could watch the construction progress, or lack of it, and wait through weather and other delays for which there seemed to be no logical reason.
In spite of all the warnings we want you to know that we actually enjoyed working with you to get into this house. Now we miss seeing you around. You and all those that worked on this project were pleasant, thoughtful, and above all, competent.
We weren’t around much when some of the crews did their part of putting the house together but all of them impressed us with their profgessionalism. Two in particular, Casey and Bill larson, were around so much that they seemed to be part of the place and we appreciated them more each time we saw them.
Before we moved in and cluttered things up the house was so squeaky clean that we hesitated to disturb anything. We had never moved into one so immaculate.
You must have some kind of special knack because if we remarked to someone that another eprson had done a good job the standard answer was, "If they didn’t do good work they wouldn’t be working with Sheldon." You’ve trained them well!
Regardless of how you have done it, you should feel real good about the group you’ve assembled. It just may be that they all reflect your attitude about being helpful. You made us feel that way and for it, are to be congratulated.
We thank you, Sheldon, for making it all a very positive experience."

"Dear Sheldon,
Diana and I wish to express our sincere appreciation to you for the excellent job you did in the construction of our new home.
Your professional approach from design to final acceptance was unsurrpassed. It was extremely gratifying to be able to bring up any issue with you and obtain an immediate response.
It would be our pleasure for you to use us as references on any of your future home constructions.
Again, thanks for a job well done!"
Dean & Connie S.
"Dear Sheldon,
We are sorry it has taken us three years to formally thank you for the beautiful house you designed and built. Every person who comes in for the first time looks out the window at our gorgeous view, only because you put in the spectacular windows for the view.
Other terrific parts of the house is the spectacular designed kitchen, the flooring and carpet, the matching cabinets through out the house and the window trim. It was such a pleasure working with you and you made us old folks feel like it was easy to build a house.
Thank you so much and we miss you."

"To the staff and crew of Eaton and Yost and Pella Windows:
I have just completed making the requested repairs on my Eaton and Yost built home as per our Home Inspection.
Our home was built in the spring and summer of 1982 and we have raised our four children here for the last 11 years. We have tried to maintain our home well for those years. We have painted when necessary (one time through since we moved in), wallpapered and carpeted to keep it up to date.
I was aware that our home was well built and of excellent quality. But even I was amazed when the only repair our home inspector could find was a $.97 rubber stripping under the shower door. He said he had to find something or they might think he never made the inspection!
Our realtor could not believe his eyes when he found out that our average monthly gas bill for our 6,000 square foot house was under $80.00!
It has been a joy to live in a house that was so well built. As we move on to Seattle we will be hard pressed to find this quality again.
Our thanks to all of your for a job well done!!"

"Dear Mr. Eaton:
When our steering committee required over ninety days to select a design / construction company for our Cineplex and executive office suite addition to our corporate headquarters, I was somewhat frustrated.
Now that the project has been completed, I can see that the time was very well spent.
Your expertise on every phase of the project was astonishing. The changes and alterations you suggested to our original layout have made all the difference to our finished product.
Your sub-contractor are the finest we have ever had the pleasure of dealing with.
With our knowledge and involvement in the building industry we were prepared for construction delay and cost overruns. To our amazement you not only brought the addition in ahead of schedule but also under budget.
The next time we need to expand our facilities it will only require the time to contact your company to the get the project under way.
Many, many thanks!"
Jim & Linda A.
"Dear Sheldon:
We wanted to thank-you for making our first and last building experience so pleasant. You made it much easier than we had anticipated & you were lots of fun to work with. All the business people & workers who helped us told us that you are an honest, nice man with impeccable taste, who builds quality homes & we certainly found that to be true.
We appreciate your patience & humor & all the kindnesses & extras you did for us. We have received so many compliments on house - most about the open design, light airy feeling & great views from all the windows.
We feel we have made a friend & look forward to being neighbors with you & Vicki."

"Dear Sheldon:
We are truly enjoying our home. Every day we are thankful we made the decision to have you build our home. As we look back through the project we remember so many difficult decisions and how you were always there with thoughtful, professional assistance. It definitely was not an easy construction job, but you and your able personnel and subs made it all work out great. We think it is a beautiful home with quality throughout.
There were dozens of instances of overcoming difficult tasks during our construction, but a few were pretty incredible in our view:
- The Design work—you listen so well. The entire layout is great, and your ideas in the kitchen and master-bedroom area are extra-extra special. And the way you worked with Mitch Thomspon was really appreciated because you guys know how to create ideas and turn them into finished beauty.
- The Staircase—how you designed it, made it fit, installed it and then finished it makes it spectacular…and you knew how important it was to us as a central feature of the house.
- The Angles—we sure ended up with lots of them…and we love them. All of the angles created a difficult roof, but your & Gordon Rock & Mitch made it all into a super roof with an outstanding appearance.
- The Cabinets—are just wonderful throughout. Mark Wilson & crew was a great choice because their work is of elegant, high quality. John Rickard’s doors and millwork are exceptional.
- Casey & Leo-Trimwork & Painting Extraordinaire—what can we say? I wasn’t sure if Cheri was going to adopt them or what. Their attention to detail and the quality of their work made all of the parts come together to look great….and so much fun to work with while they did tough stuff.
Those are just a few of the highlights. Working with you other skilled people and subs was easy for us because they all seem to enjoy working together; Rod’s Pella doors & windows; Scott Hill’s bricks; Mike & Steve Michael’s tile; the Hamm’s Corian; Shutz’s cement; Dave Ford/Pierce’s flooring; Big & little Dex’s electrical; Darrell Aldinger’s plumbing; Kincaid’s drywall; and others. They pay attention and do quality construction. We’d recommend them all to anyone.
Thanks, Sheldon to you and associates for a job well done. We are very proud of our home and share our pride with all of you."

"Dear Sheldon,
This letter is to let you know how much I appreciate the working relationship that we have had with your firm over the last several years.
When you built Rose Park Professional Building for our group, we were all extremely satisfied with all aspects of the project. The work progressed on schedule, the site was always clean and tidy, and there was never any question in our minds that the quality of materials was the best. You always addressed our personal needs in building five individual office spaces with unique requirements.
Our ongoing relationship has been what I would call “ideal” as we have needed your services for additional construction and remodeling.
Not only has the overall project been a compete success, it has always been a pleasure working with your employees. These individuals have consistently demonstrated care and concern for the needs and desires of the customer, and their quality of workmanship has been second to none.
Sheldon, our most recent remodeling project completed this month has turned out wonderful. I appreciate your interest in completing all the required work within a critical time period.
Without hesitation or reservation, I can highly recommend your firm. Your have always provided us with quality construction and excellent value."
