Palo Santo | Testimonials

"I have used Don Ewy's team for several big projects and have been thoroughly satisfied and impressed at the level of detail that goes into his work. Don is a general contractor, with an emphasis on him being a master carpenter with an eye for detail. I used his company several years ago to build a second story on a house I owned. It was a beautiful job! I've used Don for several room renovations, including gorgeous built-ins, bathroom overhauls and a mini bar built after blowing out a window seat to create a whole new space. He did an amazing job. Right now I am using Don and his team on a home that I gutted. I can not wait to see the finished product. Don makes the stressful task of renovating a lot easier because he is so laid back and happy doing the craft that he loves. He has been so patient with me and with the change orders that I make. I would highly recommend this company!"

"Since 1992, we have only hired Don Ewy for all of our refurbishing and there's been a lot. Don personally oversees all the work. We replaced all the windows and doors in our house; he designed and built the hallway to our guest suite with our kitchen remodel.

He was too busy to build our new office, but did construct the yoga wall in my yoga school and design and install the ceiling ropes.

When anyone asks who I would recommend to do anything in construction, Don's number is the one I give out."

"Palo Santo Development worked on several projects in our newly purchased home in Naples. Without plans, and only our vision, Don was able to create, enhance and draw up plans for a stone fireplace, custom den (desk, files, cupboards, book cases) a built in kitchen secretary desk with cupboard and shelves, book shelves and cupboards in the grandson bedroom and a built in magazine rack.

We love the results. The work was clean, professional, well crafted and performed in a collegial atmosphere. We will definitely hire Don and his company again!"

"I'll be blunt...if you need something made of wood, this is the man to hire! He works magic with his tools, the finished product is exceptional, and he will take the time to provide the final product that you envision! He and his staff are true craftsmen!"
