​

​

"We were facing a change in leadership in the local fire protection district and previously approved plans were revisited and questioned. The changes that were now being proposed would have led to costly increases and major design impacts. Joe worked closely with us and the fire protection district to address the concerns they had while being able to effectively navigate them through the code requirements in order to avoid these costly changes. It was clear that the fire protection district appreciated us bringing in someone with Joe’s expertise to help navigate this issue. We would recommend Joe and look forward to working with him in the future."

- Nick Theisinger, Project Manager, McShane Construction Company
