great company!

I've been thrilled to work with Matt Hoots as a Green Building Expert and Content Creator. Matt’s a top custom home builder, and he’s also a building scientist and expert who shares what he knows, often as he’s learning, so we can all build healthier, safer and more sustainable homes and buildings for everyone. I am especially excited to be working with Matt as a Media Partner for the #1920’sMakeoverATL Showhouse Project, the first Passive House renovation in the Atlanta area! Matt and the rest of the team will be creating well over 100 videos and articles to explain every aspect of this deep energy retrofit project. They’ve already created so much wonderful and helpful content, including the first of several virtual tours of the home, it’s hard to keep up. I look forward to continuing to learning from Matt, and to helping to host and promote all the great content he makes the time and energy to share with others, so we can all do better. If everyone shared even a fraction of their knowledge as Matt does, more people would be enjoying better built, healthier, more comfortable, and more efficient homes.

videos on YouTube provided by them are instructive and easy to follow

I am a designer and I worked with Matt on an event where he helped build a temporary kitchen install. Over the years I've seen his work and I'm INCredibly impressed at his expertise. I don't know anyone who takes the time to research every SINGLE product being used in the home/process (and ALSO sharing that information with customers). He absolutely has the experience needed to do great work!

I've known Matt for over 15+ years, and know him to be a highly reputable and gifted remodeler. Add to that his passion for sustainability, plus his involvement with NARI you have a stellar professional who you can work with.

I have worked with Matt on a project and resource to provide education and training on sustainable building practices and materials, for both consumers and professionals. Matt has a passion and energy level and a desire to "do things right" that is unrivaled. He puts his all into everything he does, and he's always looking to learn more and to keep improving building methods and to find better, more efficient ways to deliver the best result. "Can't" is a word that does not seem to be in Matt's vocabulary. Matt also knows what he's talking about - he's got decades of experience and an educational background in building science and construction. I look forward to continuing to work with Matt, on training and educational projects, and on building projects.

I have worked with Matt on the financing of projects and he is great! He is very responsive and thorough when providing any information needed to make the process as seamless as possible. By keeping the financing piece in order keeps ensures the project stays on track!

Interior Designers like to partner with contractors who provide quality work and manages to complete projects on time without skimping on the details. Our design firm Atelier Jordan heavily relies on Matt and the Sawhorse team to make our creative project designs come to fruition, make us shine and most of all...make our client pleasingly happy and satisfied.

Matt and the team at Sawhorse provide a quality of work that is tough to beat. The attention to detail and true dedication to making sure their work is both beautiful and done well is impressive. I would highly recommend this company!

After many discussions with various builders, we chose Sawhorse. Matt has been very helpful throughout the process. He understood our budget and worked to meet our needs.

Matt at Sawhorse is fantastic. I can't afford SawHorse's services at the moment but Matt gave me several tips and pointers that are tremendously helpful anyway. He even sent me an email with great information after we got off the phone, which I greatly appreciate. He was still helpful even though it was clear he wouldn't make a buck from me. This was a breath of fresh air. I'll certainly work with Sawhorse when I secure a reasonable budget.

Just from working with them on small projects to large projects, Sawhorse is very detailed orientated. I love this company. Anyone looking to do small to large renovations need to check this company out.

I have always admired Matt and his design team work at SawHorse. Their cutting edge design and construction has given me some great ideas for my house...

Sawhorse did an incredible job on my first floor renovation! We did a floor to ceiling renovation of our kitchen, including knocking out a few walls and repurposing a back hallway area into a large mudroom. We also renovated a bathroom, laundry room and wet bar, all exactly to our specifications and redid all the flooring on the whole first floor of the home. Sawhorse absolutely exceeded my expectations. The work was impeccable and the communication from management made the entire process a breeze. Thank you Sawhorse!

Excellent work!

I have had the pleasure of working with Matt and his team on a few projects and always loved the process and the outcome.

Sawhorse built our house. We wanted to have an energy efficient house from the very beginning. They were the most knowledgable in providing us with energy efficiency. Our monthly utility costs were cut by over half from the last house we had. The quality of work done is excellent. They have followed up with us even after our house was completed correcting any problems that normally occurs with any new house. We highly recommend Sawhorse.

I worked closely with SawHorse on a major kitchen renovation for one of my clients. SawHorse was the contractor for the project and exicuted my design.

They were professional and always kept me and the client informed with the status of the project. The project went over budget but that was due to the client upgrading along the way.

It was a great project and it ended with the client being very happy with the quality of work and comfortable with their investment.

Saw Horse does quality work and has a fabulous team of professionals. Matt Hoots is the most knowledgeable and amazing Smart/Green builder in the industry.

Very nice looking work!

We selected SawHorse for the company's commitment to environmentally sustainable practices, energy efficiency improvements, and their flexibility in approaching our project, our vision, and our budget. Matt went out of his way (literally) to help us make our renovation a success while working with our limited budget. I recommend SawHorse without reservation as a team of individuals with integrity and a focus on customer satisfaction.

Matt Hoots is incredibly knowledgeable on best practices for green construction and improving energy efficiency. He answered all of my questions. Would highly recommend.
