Valued Clients
Eric and the team were fantastic in communication and incredibly respectful of our business operations throughout the 10-month project. We had concerns about staying open during construction, but Dovetail made sure we could operate with no negative impact. Their vision aligned perfectly with ours, and the transformation has been incredible—basically overnight! I couldn’t recommend them more highly.
Eoin Cass, Director of Golf, 3s Golf
I’ve never built anything commercially before, and Dovetail was incredibly helpful – walking me through every step with patience and precision. Everything was on time…even early!
Diana Pate, DVM, DACVO, Veterinary Opthamologist, Owner, Carolina Animal Eye
Choosing Dovetail to build our roaster was an obvious choice. Expectations were always set because communication was consistent every week. We would love to work with them again for other expansions or renovations.
David Baker, Co-Owner, Methodical Coffee
When we talked to Dovetail themselves, they were just good people. It was very clear that they were the guys for us.They knew what we wanted and they knew the time frame in which we wanted it, and they were up for the challenge. It was a very challenging build, and they took the bull by the horns and made it happen. So, we're extremely happy.
Jason Donnelly, Co-Owner, Mill City Kitchen
Dovetail was fantastic. I can't remember a day when there wasn't something happening that needed to happen, which is just incredible to me to see. Once we finally got all our documents in a row and started construction, everything went very smoothly, very quickly, very consistently, and everything was done very well. So, we're super grateful.
Ryland Reigns Ford, Co-owner, Scout’s Doughnuts
In this industry we’re driven by budgets and timelines. Chase and Eric are good at communicating those two things which instills trust and confidence.
Ryan Peiffer, Vice President, Leasing & Property Management Hughes Investments
We picked Dovetail Construction because of their transparent communication and their ability to really help us navigate what is a tough process when we're building on an existing site.
Kylie Felker, President, Foster Victor
I just loved Dovetail immediately. They're meticulous. They work great with my design team, great with my creative team. They're neat. They're timely. They're efficient. So, I have no complaints.

We knew it needed to be built well, and that would be a sign to the community that we’re here and we’re here to stay. Dovetail was a key aspect in making sure that could come to fruition.

Our recent bar renovation wouldn’t have been possible without the incredible team at Dovetail Construction. Their attention to detail made all the difference from start to finish. We couldn’t be happier with the result.
Ellen Lee, Owner, Lieu’s Chinese Bistro
Attention to detail has been tremendous. I’ve been impressed with Dovetail’s understanding of the client’s needs (cost or finding solutions). Problem-solving is a big bonus.

As we keep growing, we expect to keep using Dovetail for our construction projects.
