"Our experience with Oxford Builders is best illustrated by this true story.
We were enthusing over lunch one day with business associates about our old home restoration and the wonderful contractor we had found: his planning was meticulous, his craftsmanship was absolutely superb, and all work was completed on time and under cost. As one praise piled upon another, another person at the table began leaning forward intently, and finally said, "You're talking about Christian Winkley, aren't you? He did our kitchen!"
We originally selected Oxford because of their experience renovating older homes using the latest materials. Little did we know that Christian and his crew would be the best craftsmen with whom we have ever worked. We recommend Oxford Builders without reservation."
- Bruce and Constance Fraser
"Working with Oxford builders was a pleasure. After the successful completion of two major commercial and two residential projects, we highly recommend Oxford Builders to everyone we know.
Each project was executed on time, within budget, and with top quality craftsmanship. In a field largely populated by contractors who do not deliver as promised, Oxford Builders stands head and shoulders above the rest!"
- Richard Newton and Monya Elgart
"Our kitchen is as beautiful today as it was almost two years ago when Oxford Builders completed it, a testament to the ultimate quality in workmanship which is unsurpassed. The finished product is better than we ever had expected it to be and, as important, our design and construction goals were met within the expected cost and right on time. The team at Oxford Builders is the best in the business and we have had no reservations in recommending them to friends and family. We will use Oxford Builders again!"
- Brendan and Ellen Fox
"When we decided we would one day restore the front of our home, built in 1922, to the way it originally looked, we knew there would be only one firm we'd trust for this work: Oxford Builders. Because I'd admired Christian's old-house work from afar, I felt certain that he would approach my project lovingly and with the kind of attention to detail I would require. And he did! Our house looks exactly the way it did when it was built (we were fortunate to have a vintage photo for reference), and we could not have been happier with the entire process. Every one of Christian's workers had the same hard work ethic, the same courtesy and tidiness and pride in their work, the same sense of professionalism that he does. As remarkable as it may sound, it was a pleasure to have them work on my home. They were reliable, respectful, and completed the project ahead of schedule. I recommend Oxford Builders heartily and without reservation, and would be happy to respond to any additional questions about my experience."

"We hired Oxford Builders to put a new bathroom and mudroom in what was formerly a butler's pantry in our 1905 Victorian house located in Hartford's West End neighborhood. Christian and Kate were wonderful to work with at every stage of the process. Any project involving an older home can be quite tricky and requires a contractor with the right mix of experience, knowledge and creativity to get the job done right. Christian and his team did a wonderful job with our project and we would gladly hire them again for future projects."

"Jane and I wanted to let you know how satisfied we are with the entire project you just finished for us in Chester. Having done many building projects over the last 30 years, we can appreciate the attention to detail that your company provided.
Most of all was the timeliness of completion. As you were aware going into the project, this home was for our daughter and two of her friends to reside in. They all have special needs and getting them settled into a new home in a timely manner was of utmost importance. The new master bedroom, the entire remodeled kitchen, laundry room, powder room, and a new family room were all completed exactly as expected. Thank you for finishing the project ahead of schedule and within budget, especially with the many changes we presented you on a day to day basis. We also appreciated the advice and the options you suggested to solve some of our particular needs. Everything ended up nicer than we could have hoped for. If you ever need a reference for a future project please feel free to have any prospective client contact us."
