Testimonials

New Perspectives Renovation Project

Chris was cooperative and consultative during the development of the project.  He always responded immediately when I made inquires and checked in on the project often.  His patience was stellar with me and the team, that is saying something! I was excessively impressed with Jason.  His work ethic was second to none, and he had complete comprehension of the project, timeframes and subcontractors.  He arrived before 7:30 a.m. and stayed throughout every single day.  He acquiesced to every single request that we asked of him.  To assure a least disruptive environment for our members he worked some late evenings and weekends at my request. But what made the greatest impression on me was the camaraderie he developed with those we serve.  He enabled them to feel comfortable and involved during a time of incredible upheaval in their world. Their safety was of utmost importance, and he excelled at insuring it.

Fresenius Dialysis Medical Center Renovation

As usual, L&L understands the nature of our business and responds accordingly. Thank you so much for all of your support last year with improvements to our facility. It is great to work with a real professional."

Plymouth County Courthouse Historic Renovation

“In the past few years Plymouth County has had L&L Builders do two significant building projects. As everyone knows remodeling is never easy and it never goes as planned. However, in both cases, L& Builders' finished product was outstanding.  The latest project was a major remodel of the main courtroom in the Plymouth County Courthouse. Other than some Covid related supply issues, the project was successful and completed in a timely manner. The prior project was a remodel of the main lobby of the Courthouse. The result was a beautiful transformation that fit the style and design.”

- Craig Anderson, Plymouth County Supervisor 

Kingsley - Pierson School New Construction

“The Kingsley-Pierson CSD and it's board of directors are extremely pleased with the quality of work completed by L & L Builders and their construction team.  The whole timing of this major construction project, with the pandemic and supply chain issues, was challenging in itself.  However, even though there were challenges during construction, L & L Builders did quality work, listened to our input, and were a pleasure to work with.  They certainly exceeded our expectations and now our school and community has a high quality fitness center and gymnasium that will be put to good use for years to come.  I would highly recommend L & L Builders for your next construction project.”

Sioux Falls Hy-Vee #3 Renovation

LL builders was the general on a recent remodel project at our location and here is my overview of the project. Communications to us and all subs was excellent. Daily communications between Kyle, Curtis and I was excellent. I thought the work done was very neat and caused very little if any interruption to our daily business. They worked overnight when it made sense and scheduled case moves/demolition away from when customers were in the store. I could text Kyle and get a reply in a reasonable amount of time. Curtis and Kyle both make sure all of the details were completed prior to moving on to the next project.

-Mark Lammers, 

Hy-Vee Store Manager

Scooters Coffee New Construction

L&L Builders did an AMAZING job building our Scooter’s Coffee kiosk in Sioux City.  They were professional and friendly, but more importantly they were trustworthy.  I could trust them to save us money when needed and I could trust that they were doing everything in their power to complete the project on time.  My experience in the past has been that some builders do not always want to come back and finish up the last small details, but L&L has come back whenever needed to make sure we are completely satisfied with our building.  Thank you L&L!

Sibley School Addition

I came on board with our summer project halfway through as the new superintendent. Ron and Shawn were fantastic to work with! They took the time to take me back to the beginning, explain how we got to where we were, and go over the details multiple times with me so I could be up to speed and on board with the work moving forward. Besides doing great work, they made sure all the subcontractors did what they needed to do and made sure I didn't have to worry about anything being taken care of. All the workers were professional, exceeded expectations, and ensured that we were satisfied with the final product. I'm thrilled to give L&L my highest recommendation!
