"We are delighted with our home and PSG. Paul Gidus is a saint! He always keeps his cool and is very responsive. PSG is very customer oriented."
- Patricia McKeon
"PSG
Construction made every effort to minimize the intrusions a major project can create. We're working on a project at
our condo on the beach [with another contractor] and it's taking
forever to get done! The work we're trying to have done is relatively
minor and yet has taken 6 or 7 months to complete. PSG knows
how to anticipate all the things that can go wrong. They know
how to identify what can go wrong and work a way around those
things before they ever happen. That saves us an enormous amount
of time and aggravation. I've become spoiled with PSG."
- Anne van den
Berg
"My
experience with PSG was excellent. I've been in the building
business myself, so I had a certain level of expectation. All
my expectations were met--and I had high expectations. All
of the people PSG has on their staff, their subs and their suppliers
are all very good folks. We didn't have anybody in the house
who we were uncomfortable with. All of them were respectful of
our home.
- Ted Brown
There
wasnt even a comparison. I probably talked to four different
[companies] before I even started. The difference from the start
was so huge, and also with the way things were handled. I dont
know if PSG can be compared to anyone else.
- Isabelle Chauffeton
"I
spent ten years thinking about my project. I had some dreams
I wanted to fulfill with my project that other builders didn't
want to do. PSG bent to work with me to fulfill my dream."
- Paul R. Williamson, M.D.

"One of
the things I really liked about the PSG Process was that PSG
partner Stephen Gidus spent so much time going through the project
with me on paper first. It allowed me to make a lot of choices
up front. I called and checked up on PSG before hiring them.
I talked to my banker. I talked to an attorney. My banker's reaction
was 'if it's PSG, you're not going to have any trouble getting
this loan through.' The attorney said PSG had a fabulous reputation--they're
known for being on the high end in terms of price, but they're
also known for high quality. I told Stephen the day we signed
the contract that my goal now was to like him as much at the
end of the project as I did then. I was definitely able to meet
that goal!"
- Lisa Poole
"We
interviewed a number of different [companies] and PSG was by far
the most organized. We could tell they paid attention to detail.
We had a smaller project completed on our house the year before,
and that made us realize how important organization would be
in doing a bigger project. In our initial meetings, everything
was done on paper first. It assured us that things were not going
to be missed."
-Julie Jimenez
"I
worked with PSG seven years ago on another project and the biggest
reason that I went with PSG again was the trust that I had in
them. I had complete trust that they would care about the project.
I knew they would care that the project was done right. I couldn't
have left town while they were working on the project without
that trust."
-Susan Anastasio
"PSG Construction
does a real nice job in the prep work. They coordinate the time
so that there are less surprises as the project progresses in
the construction stage." I found Paul and Stephen extremely
easy to work with-very honest, up-front and reliable. That's
something you don't find in a lot of construction."
-Dr. John Huhn
"I
chose PSG Construction because I got a real sense of comfort
working with them that they were going to be on top of the job
and committed to time frames. The experience with them was very
good because of the way they approached the job. Stephen and
Paul are genuinely good people."
-Michael Cochran
"One
night during work on our project, there was a huge rainstorm.
We were worried our house would be flooded because there was
a window that hadn't been installed yet. But [PSG partner] Paul
[Gidus] had gone over around 10 PM that night and took care of
protecting the house. That's just one example of many where PSG
went above and beyond what you'd expect from a builder."

"A
small point, but of great importance to us, was PSG's consideration
and care of our home and its exterior grounds as well as the
effect their work might have on our neighbors. The site was completely
fenced off to prohibit stray material from encroaching on the
adjacent yards. Radios could not be played outside the house
and a complete sweep-down and clean-up both inside and out was
done daily. Smoking was allowed only at designated areas outside
the home."
-Bill and Yvonne
Austin
"We
tell everyone our experience with PSG was great. The system Stephen
uses in the planning stages was critical to the way his brother
and partner Paul was able to proceed in the construction stage.
The detail PSG goes into just in the bidding process showed us
that you pay for what you get. They were a little more expensive,
but it was worth it."
- Pam Oldham
"PSG
has incredible integrity. If they tell you something, they mean
it and will stand by it--absolutely. They are well respected
by their subcontractors which makes a big difference because
you get quality subcontractors who do a quality job for you and
who you feel comfortable having in your home. I was here by myself
every single day...with a lot of subcontractors crawling all
over my house. And I felt comfortable because they were good,
decent folks who PSG had worked with before. PSG also is obviously
good to their subcontractors. In previous experiences, the subcontractors
didn't respect the general contractor; they didn't show up to
do the job. Ultimately, we hired PSG, because we felt comfortable
and confident that they had the experience to do the job."
- Shannon Baker
"PSG
Construction doesn't have much competition in terms of the high-end
work that they do. I wasn't aware of anybody in their league
and I'm still not. I'm in the commercial real estate business
and hire people all the time for major renovations. I've had
my share of nightmares with people in the building industry,
and didn't really want to get into a nightmare in my home, which
is why I hired PSG. The image they portray in their marketing
happens to be an accurate one. They come across as very honest,
very sincere. I think that's just who they are. That's what distinguishes
them from the competition."
- Michael Green
"PSG
Construction is geared to producing a quality job. They made
a schedule, stuck to it, and were prompt and courteous. I really
appreciated their professionalism."
- Donna Shealy
"I'm their
biggest fan! They're fabulous! The project is so wonderful, we
can't even believe it!"
- Beth Lu
One of the
things that was helpful to us was the Product Selection Manual
that facilitated the whole process before we even got started.
My husband is a designer and attuned to detail. The execution
of something is very important to him. Finishing things off properly
is something PSG did and we appreciated very much."

"We were
very impressed when they presented the contract for the project.
It stated exactly what they would be doing, what supplies would
be used, and the time frame. They followed the schedule really
well. There werent any surprises."
- Trudy Lara
"Paul
and Stephen should be role models for other [companies in the industry]. We would
use them again and have recommended them to other people."
- Denise Laussade
"Before
beginning the process, I had fears of the subs coming
into my house because of the many stories I had heard. I voiced
these concerns to Stephen. My fears were quickly put to rest
when I saw the professionalism of the subs."
- Linda Knopke
"It
was extremely easy to convey to PSG how we wanted to preserve
the integrity of the house. They were great to work with."
- Jeff Schenck
"Jeff
and Alicia sought out PSG Construction because of several referrals
including one from Alicias boss, George Smith, President/CEO
of Wharton Smith, a large specialty contracting firm. Smith had
hired PSG to renovate his own home. For a contractor to
be comfortable with another contractor [working on] his own home
says a lot. From what we had heard, we knew PSG would do it right
and wouldnt cut corners. We didnt want any hassles
because were so busy. What we had in mind is what we got
from PSG. "
