"When the city inspector pulled me aside and told us we have one of the best contractors in the Tampa Bay area, I knew we made a wise decision selecting Shawn Fernald, the owner SDF contracting. We interviewed over 10 well-known and established contractors in the area before we made our decision. My father is a retired contractor so we held very high standards when selecting a general contractor, especially with the scope of work that needed to be done. We converted a 1920 house to a dental office and they did a phenomenal job from start to finish! The quality, attention to detail and craftsmanship they put in to this project was incredible. They definitely exceeded our expectations."

"After receiving proposals from a few different companies, we chose SDF Contracting to do an extensive renovation to address a multitude of problems on our school playground. The project involved excavation of the existing surface, pouring of new concrete, installation of a retaining wall, bubbler, new fencing, and new ground surface. Mr. Shawn Fernald was extremely professional throughout the process, easily adapting to changes we requested along the way with minimal disruption to the schedule. The Project Manager he assigned was on site daily to oversee each phase of the project to ensure timely completion. We plan to contact Shawn Fernald for future projects on our campus, and we highly recommend SDF Contracting without hesitation!"
