Recently, RA Praught Construction redeveloped our first floor bedroom and master bathroom. The bathroom included a full size bathtub, walk-in shower, heated floor, stone tile and cherry wood cabinetry. The fixtures provide subtle support for aging visitors. The bedroom included hardwood floors, built-in bookshelves and new French doors to the patio. We were immensely pleased with RA Praught - their work is of the highest quality and their subcontractors/craftsmen were skilled, polite, and neat. We highly recommend RA Praught Construction.

RA Praught recently completed the conversion of a theatre room and bathroom in our attic space. All of the team were efficient, neat and professional. Questions were responded to quickly, and I received daily visits from Michael, Ray's son, who was very easy to work with, and always made time to call in if there were any issues of concern. We are delighted with the finished result.

We used RA Praught to remodel our home on Monument Ave before we moved in. Ray worked closely with us to move the job along without compromising quality. Both he and his subs seemed to be as invested in our home and completing it on time as we were. I'd have no hesitation in using RA Praught again or recommending them to others.

Their sub contractors were amazing! From the framers, to the electrician, cabinet maker, trim carpenters and painters, they were all professionals I could trust to give us high quality work, fair pricing and an honest opinion. Our finished product was better than we could have imagined. R.A. Praught turned our house into our dream home.
