What Our Clients Say…
Our ability to be successful is dependent on treating our clients so well that they recommend us to others. Here’s what some of them are saying.
“Not only were we happy with the finished product, we were pleased with the entire process. Rob and his team’s attention to detail throughout took much of the stress out of the process for us.”
“In any building project, there will always be issues and problems, but what makes Doug and Commerce stand out is that they solve all of the issues and problems quickly and professionally in a team atmosphere. They take on that responsibility and do not try to shift that responsibility.”
“On behalf of the many residents on our campus, we send a sincere ‘thank you’ to each of you and the marvelous crews that carried out the construction of the rooms. The crews were respectful of the residents’ needs, courteous to the staff, and sensitive to the noise levels in the construction area so as to be the least disruptive to everyone living or walking past the rooms.”
“Rob, you personally are responsible for us deciding to hire Commerce Construction for our new Chevrolet Cadillac Building. It was your initial contact to ask for the opportunity and your enthusiasm through the design and bid process that helped make the decision to work with Commerce.”
“Our long-term tenants request Commerce and the project foremen by name. Doug and his staff are very accommodating to our tenants, which is very important to our tenant satisfaction and tenant retention efforts. We can without a doubt recommend Commerce Construction to be a professional, reputable, and fair general contractor.”
“The ARCK Physicians and I found Doug and his crew exceptional to work with and very responsive to our requests and very innovative in solving issues and improving our building plans.”
“The responsiveness and attentiveness provided by each of you on this project was satisfying and comfortable, which resulted in the ability to rapidly modify any issue that arose to the successful completion of the project. It was a pleasure working with you directly.”
“We were so happy with Commerce Construction and trusted them so much, that when we purchased another building in 2017 for our west Wichita location, we went straight to Commerce Construction and completely skipped the competitive bid process.”
“Throughout the course of the renovation, Mr. Monson was a complete professional. He was accurate in his initial assessment of the scale and cost of our project. He was clear in his record keeping and time log. He chose and managed the subcontractors well.”
“We are extremely impressed with both the diligence and professionalism that was exhibited with Commerce Construction. We are overall satisfied with the planning process, as well as the attention to detail, smoothness in the building development, and completion. In fact, the project ended ahead of schedule and under budget.”
“When we have negotiated projects, Commerce is at the table with the architect and engineers. In every instance, we have received value engineering and design suggestions from Doug Henning and his team that have proven to be very worthwhile.”
“We would not hesitate to work with Commerce Construction again, and we feel confident they are a good choice for any construction needs you have.”
“Commerce Construction did an amazing job and our construction project was completed on time. We received a final product that we were very happy with and they have been responsive to every one of our requests. Without any hesitation, we highly endorse Commerce Construction!”
“Our job was done with care and precision. In addition, they were extremely clean and tidy in the workplace. They never left the worksite in disarray. They vacuumed daily and took special care to prevent the job dust from trailing throughout the dealership.”
“Our staff and our customers have enjoyed the new facility. We have seen an improved Customer Satisfaction Index (CSI) score from our customers. Again, thank you Rob and the entire Commerce Construction Team for building what turned out to be a tremendous final result.”
