“Mike Cowan, completed a major remodel of our home recently; he was nothing short of a pleasure to deal with throughout the construction process. Mike kept all his commitments to us, whether schedule or financial. He made sure we understood the potential impact of change orders and offered alternate solutions to minimize costs. Mike engaged sub-contractors who shared his client-centric approach to business: they were reliable, easy to work with, and the quality of their work consistently exceeded our expectations. In the single occasion of a negotiated dispute, Mike showed himself to be fair, reasonable, and willing to compromise. My wife and I have a number of friends who have also used Mike…to a man (or woman) they share our positive views of Mike Cowan Construction. I am comfortable strongly recommending Mike Cowan for virtually any substantial residential construction project.”

“I have worked closely with Mike for five years on several large scale construction projects, my personal residence and my aviation museum. Both projects required an immense amount of coordination and construction management. He has delivered a superior product in both instances. Mike has a good rapport and command with both the subcontractors and suppliers. He pays great attention to detail and works harmoniously with all involved. I have been pleased with his ability to schedule and manage timelines, set priorities and meet required commitments. More personally, I have been impressed with Mike’s honesty and fairness in dealing with myself and others. He is a hard worker and exhibits great enthusiasm. He is highly motivated and works well under pressure. He is morally and spiritually strong and wholesome. In my 45 years of business experience I have found Mike to be one of the most honest and loyal people. For all the above reasons, I am happy to recommend Mike for any construction project.”
