Our project coordinator monitored everything that was going on during our project and kept everything on the time schedule commitment made by Smet. The coordinator advised us on the status of everything at our weekly on site meetings. We found these meetings to be both informative and educational thus allowing us to concentrate on our business verses the actual construction process. Trust in Smet Construction Services made all the difference in the construction of our new office.
-- Tom Janssen, Janssen Insurance
Working with Smet Construction really gave us a lot of options and flexibility other companies didn’t offer. We were pleased with their process and the results of building with Smet
-- Lance Peroutka, Element Creative
I have had the opportunity to work on six different projects from small to large with Smet over the past five years. Each one has shown a professional quality of work that we at the Oneida Bingo and Casino have been very satisfied with. Smet has been very responsive to our needs running an operation 24/7 and has done everything possible to minimize a projects impact each time. My experience with the design and construction of each project has been very positive throughout the course of the project. Timelines are key in our casino operation to minimize downtime, Smet has worked hard to meet every deadline established and has shown their commitment to getting the job done right.

2/23/05 Now that we are getting settled into our new facility, I wanted to take the time to tell you what an excellent job your people did for us. Realizing the time constraints we put on Smet Construction, to complete the project to the extent that we could operate in the building by January 1, 2005 was quite a task. Smet's staff did a fantastic job, especially in lite of some of our changes.
-- Dave Haertl, Green Bay Truck Sales, Inc.
In reference to the project you completed for Apac Customer Services I would like to commend you on a job well done. Your project management skills and recognition of our extremely tight timeline was of great benefit to our needs. The ability with the pressured time line to keep cost down was outstanding. I have project managed jobs all over the world and must say that Smet Construction was one of the best partners I have ever seen on a priority project. Please thank Dan & all crew for a Professional, Precise, Turnkey project. I look forward to our next project which is already in the works.

We are pleased with our new building. From the experience we had working with the project manager and superintendent to the day-to-day duties as well as the sub-contractors, it all came together on time and on budget! It's been a few months now since we moved in and I can honestly say it feels like home. We love the space, especially the large floor to ceiling windows in each office. We have had several people comment on these, saying they like how relaxed they feel being here, nestled in the woods. Smet's attention to our requests from start to finish has been a delight. Thank you for everything.
-- Joe Simon, Simon Insurance & Investment Services, Inc.
We are up and running in our new location in Mountain Bay Plaza in Pulaski and wanted to take a minute to thank you and your crew, namely Tony and Mike, for the support we were given throughout the project. It was a very busy and hectic time for us relocating and your staff created a seamless transition for us. A few things slipped our minds and your guys were right there to remedy our situation. Thanks for helping build a location we are proud to be a part of.
-- Dean DeKeyser, Sound Check
As we near the end of another record year for growth, I wanted to take the time to thank you for the fantastic work your company did on our original facility and our recent expansion. I appreciated the involvement that you allowed me during the planning and construction of both projects. I especially appreciate the advice from Joash in making sure our facility will meet our need in the future. His thoroughness in managing the details allowed us to have a manufacturing facility that was flexible, efficient and beautiful while staying within our financial means. I look forward to working with your company on our future building expansions.
-- Chris Frigo, Forte Composites Inc.
I would like to take time as the New Year starts to express my appreciation for helping relocate my business. The building process was not work, it was fun! Smet Construction is a great company to work with. My customers love the new space, and because of our new location, we are meeting many new people. Also, I would like to make sure that much thanks goes to Mike Borman. His attention to the details is oustanding! He met every need I had quickly and efficiently. Mike was always courteous and polite. I am sure he is a valued employee. Thank you agin so much.
-- Darlene Funk, Meridian Salon, Pulaski WI
I wanted to inform you how very proud we are of our new CBRF that Smet Construction Services built for us. Tony Le Comte and Bob Kiel of Smet were very exceptional to work with. The organizational skill at the job sight, the timing of each contractor to come and complete their work, materials being available when needed, all were done in a professional manner. Sub-contractors also commented on how no one got into each others way, because it was well organized. Everyone took pride in their workmanship and the results are noticed. We receive compliments from everyone that tours the facility and our residents say it is better than a hotel. This is a special thank you to Smet Construction Services for our new CBRF facility, and we are proud to have your Smet stone on our building.
-- Bonnie Davis, NHA & Sandy DeVleeshower, Bornemann Nursing Home, Inc.
Mike Borman did an excellent job with the buildout of Cousins/Figaro's in Pulaski. He communicated very well as to what was happening each day and also when things were going to occurr in the future. We had many changes during the project and he handled them professionally. He cooridinated what was to be done and completed everything on schedule. It is because of Mike that our buildout was completed on time and there is quality workmanship. We would highly recommend Mike to oversee any project for Smet and hope that when we do further projects with Smet he will be the lead person. We are vey happy working with Smet Construction Services. Both Mike and Tony Le Comte are extremely professional and accomplished everything the said they would. They are great representatives of your company.
-- Cindy Egnarski & Jerard Nighorn, Figaro's & Cousins - Pulaski
Jacobs Engineering: Smet Construction did a great job on my last tenant build out at 1088 Springhurst Drive in Green Bay. Smet delivered the 30,000 square foot of tenant improvement in 45 days to accomodate a March 1, 2007 tenant move in date for Jacobs Engineering. Not only was the job done timely but it was done right and at the end of the day my customer was happy!
-- Steve Stock, SWS Investments
I am pleased to write this letter of reference for Smet Construction Services. I have had to the opportunity to work with Scott Smet and his staff on a number of projects over the past several years. More specifically with project managers Tony Le Comte and Joash Smits along with construction superintendent Bob Kiel. We have found all of them to be competent and very attentive to their clients. When change issues arose, they were handled professionally and at fair prices. The joint clients we have had have all been pleased with their projects. Of special note is a project completed in early 2007 involving the construction of a new 20 bed CBRF addtition to Bornemann's Nursing Home on Green Bay's east side. The project came together perfectly and is considered by many to be among the best facilities of its type in the region. Finally, perhaps the best recommendation I can make is by putting my money on the comapny I am referencing. We a Millennium have done just that with Smet currenlty doing a build-out for our new offices in downtown Green Bay. Sincerely, Mark Dillenburg President/Architect Millenium Architects & Designers, Ltd.

The Trek Bicycle Store of Wausau was on a very tight timeline. We took ownership of the building on December 29, 2007. Smet obtained all permits, gutted and remodeled the interior and exterior and we were open for business March 17th 2008. Stacie and I will work with Smet on our next commercial project. Sincerely, Randy and Stacie Bailey Stadium Bike Grren Bay Trek Bicycle Store of Wausau
-- Randy & Stacie Bailey, Trek Bicycle Store
Dan(Project Superintendent), Thank you very much for making the Escanaba store such an easy set. I can honestly say this was the easiest and you had a lot of follow-up. I didn't have to call on you every 5 minutes to fix something. Good luck on all your future projects! Colleen Goodwill Industries
-- Goodwill Escanba, Goodwill
On behalf of my associates at CBRE and S&H Company I would like to thank you and your team at Smet for the outstanding job you did for us in rebuilding and remodeling the former Best Buy building next to the Fox Valley Mall and turning it into a beautiful new Michaels store with additional space for a co-tenant. The entire process from bidding thru delivery 6 month later was handled with a great deal of professionalism and integrity. You were able to deliver everything on time and with very few, if any, glitches. I believe the greatest testimonial to the quality of your work is the fact that Michaels' Director of Construction had nothing but praise for your work and had almost zero items on his punch list after our walkthrough prior to delivery. We look forward to working with Smet on the build out of the remaining space in the bulding as soon as we secure a tenant and will not hesitate to recommend you to other developers and landlords who have need for a construction firm in your market.
-- Mark Brickman, Michaels Store / CBRE
On behalf of the Cornerstone Community Ice Center we would like to thank you and your team for the outstanding job you did for us in building the new addition to our new center. The entire process, from bidding through project delivery was handled with a great deal of professionalism and integrity. Your superintendent on the project, Dan Evans, is definitely an asset to your group because of his managment skills as well as his knowledge of building and maintaining ice arenas. Smet is ahead of the curve when it comes to working with their clients to achieve the highest quality; at the best price. Though there were numerous glitches in the architect's building plans, your company was more than fair when it came to addressing the issues and did so with few change orders. We look forward to working with Smet in the future. I will be sure to pass your name on to others and do not hesitate to give my name as reference for any potential projects you're working on.
-- Don Chilson, Cornerstone Community Ice Center
