Matt Shanahan of Shanahan Consulting & Construction Inc., project managed two-multimillion-dollar projects for another contractor building artificial sports field complexes. The first project was at a value of 2.9 million and the second was completed at a value of 3 million.

Since then, I have worked with Shanahan Consulting & Construction and the owner Matthew Shanahan on wrapping up a project at Burlington waterfront in order to bring it to completion. The value of this project was just in excess of one million.

Matthew Shanahan has shown to be able to provide top quality services and is very capable as a project manager/contractor and has shown an ability for overall site control of the construction process. We would not hesitate to recommend Matthew of Shanahan Consulting & Construction Inc.,based on our experiences with him.

Please accept this as my highest recommendation of Mr. Matthew Shanahan of the construction firm, Shanahan Consulting & Construction. Mr. Shanahan has demonstrated a professional and ethical approach to his work, providing leadership and ensuring a high-quality of workmanship throughout the park construction. The project includes a large playground area complete with several custom play features, a large community open space with precise landform, extensive planting, a large concrete plaza and several concrete seat walls, along with custom fabricated shade structures and sign elements.

Mr. Shanahan grasped the importance of careful soil management as he navigated this remediated industrial site, protecting and preserving the soil cap, and ensuring correct protocols were adhered to.

Having access to quality sub-contractors has also been a definite strength for Mr. Shanahan, ensuring sufficient staffing and consistently meeting scheduling targets.

I look forward to the opportunity to work with Shanahan Consulting & Construction on future projects.

What Sets Shanahan Consulting and Construction can be broken down into three key components; communication, reliability and precision.

Reliability. SC2 shows up when you say they're going to show up and manages expectations in terms of deadlines.

Shanahan Consulting and Construction has a true passion and respect for the hardscape construction trade. Their work is much closer to art than landscaping, this is due their breathtaking and boundary pushing designs designs, as well as superb craftsmanship.

SC2 inc, Jeff and Matt were great; meeting once plans are discussed with detailed drawings, itemized how they will approach. They were very professional and clear on pricing providing me many options before, during and at any time, I requested. As the project unfolded they addressed concerns that could not have been anticipated and provided lots of notice when I needed to add or change something. 

Matt and Jeff go into great detail what products are best, quality wise but also pricing. They even had samples delivered and showed the products first hand before finalizing any materials. They illustrated the location of manufacturing and which products provide the best customer support to help in decision making. 

In regards to Shanahan Consulting and Constructions work: they arrive on time. Always set up quietly, clean up afterwards. My family, my neighbors never saw anything that I did not care for. Their entire crew were always well behaved, extremely safe and kind. All details of each area were done so well and left me in " ahh" on how beautiful each area looked. People walking by comment on how beautiful everything looks. Maintaining what Shanahan Consulting and Construction built... is now a piece of cake for me to handle by myself due to the low maintenance design. I tremendously enjoy the finished product;. Matt and Jeff designed it with only little details of what my hopes were. The details they incorporated and executed really brought my property to life.

One of the reasons and elements I chose SC2inc is that Matt has high level education ( university) as it shows in what he does, how he works with the crew and informs the customer( like me). Having hired numerous other companies in the past; Matt with his knowledge, skill and ethics really set Shanahan Consulting and Construction apart from everyone else.  

They are such a pleasant company to work with, executing such a big job, over many many days... every day was a pleasure seeing them. I am a very happy and content client here, which is why I am looking forward to seeing Matt and Jeff again on my new property and building. On this project we will be using their skills and talent to create a brand new residence.

Matt’s background in construction and landscape architecture ensure that projects are built well from overall site function to the finest project details. Matt is able to provide strong design solutions when unexpected conditions are encountered onsite making the most challenging projects a straightforward construction experience. I would not hesitate to recommend SC2 Inc. to anyone in the future.

If you are judging based on a star system, I would not hesitate to give SC2inc all of them. 10/10!

I was more than happy with Matt and Shanahan Consulting/Construction’s creative work. They are detail oriented and great communicators. From design, layout and assistance guiding the pool installation, to material selections and managing the engineering of the waterfall. The overall experience and work was impeccable. Matt and his team showcased their finishing finesse which resulted in a fantastic finished product. They even made sure the site was fully secured, safe and immaculate everyday during construction. I would highly recommend Shanahan Consulting and Construction Inc. for any outdoor project.

I think what sets you guys apart and what it really boils down to is the intricacies, details and exceptional quality shown in your work. There are several unique cuts, thorough base preparation and advanced techniques, materials and tools implored that give your designs and projects a distinct signature.
