Hear from just a few of our satisfied clients.
MLM turned our humble, mid-century ranch house into a dream home, flooded with natural light and beautiful finishes. We did a whole home renovation, opened up walls and updated the entire space. Machi and his team made themselves available to me any time I had a question, even before we signed our contract. From the beginning stages until project completion, MLM expertly guided me through the entire process. The builder trend app kept us informed with daily progress and invoices, and we had frequent on site meetings throughout the renovation. The highest compliment that I can give the MLM team, beyond their expert craftsmanship, is that they are honest. Machi stands by his work. His subcontractors are conscientious. If something is not right, they fix it within hours. The estimator, Scott, is thorough and transparent. Anna, the designer/purchaser, is resourceful and diligent. Matt, the project manager, is a quick communicator and a creative problem solver. Even after unforeseen issues arose, they got the work done within the time that they promised. I would recommend trusting MLM to anyone who is ready to make a big, positive change to their home. Machi and his team will deliver that and more.

We’ve been working with MLM since the spring to build an addition to our home in the Marigny, and the experience has been nothing short of exceptional. From the start, we were impressed by their strong communication and the thoughtful systems they had in place to ensure the process ran smoothly. While it was initially theoretical, those systems proved invaluable once the scope of work began. They created a level of transparency around both communication and budget management that kept us consistently informed and confident throughout the project. What truly stood out was the care and attention we received from every level of the team, from ownership and administration to our fantastic project manager and subcontractors. Because we were building an addition to our existing home, the subcontractors were inside our space every day, and they could not have been more respectful, thoughtful, and detail-oriented. This culture of professionalism and care was evident across the entire team and made us feel taken care of every step of the way. The result? A beautiful addition that we absolutely love. We couldn’t be happier with MLM Construction and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for a construction team that delivers both quality and peace of mind.

MLM did an amazing job renovating our master bathroom. There was constant contact and daily updates which made the process very easy and stress free. Everyone involved with the job had obvious pride in their work and ensured all other areas of our house remained clean. We have recommended them to everyone we’ve spoken with about the job, and will be contracting them again for the remainder of our renovations!
