What Our Clients Have to Say



Dr. Larry Bozzomo

Superintendent, Manhasset Union Free School District

"When I was a superintendent in suburban Pittsburgh, our district had a number of buildings to upgrade, and we retained Thomas & Williamson to do a feasibility study to estimate the costs for everything from bare essentials to an educational retrofit. By the time we had finished, the board knew exactly what the pricing would be — right down to the hardware on the doors. We now have a five-year plan for our facilities."

"The firm did a great deal of value engineering for us. We were able to reconstruct the intermediate high school — a project that initially seemed like an impossible renovation on an improbable site — at an incredibly economical cost. We knew it would be a challenge to increase capacity at a land-locked site, but Thomas & Williamson helped us develop a design that fit the footprint of the existing building. Their value engineering expertise helped us complete the project at significantly less cost than the original estimate that we received from another firm."

"I have 24 years experience as a superintendent and have been deeply involved in construction projects at several school districts. I met Jon Thomas on such a project more than 10 years ago when I was employed in Pennsylvania. I think he is the most competent individual in his field that I have ever met. He's knowledgeable, down-to-earth, and always follows through on a commitment. When I arrived at Manhasset, construction planning was underway. I knew that hiring Jon would greatly benefit our project."

"Our school board really appreciated Jon. I always say that the best defense is a good offense, and he's always proactive — he brings vision and insight to the table. He anticipates the board's concerns and resolves issues before they become costly problems. He never uses jargon — he tells it to you straight. When there's conflict between school administration and contractors, he mediates it and gets everyone on a productive path again. Each time I've worked with him, he's worked hard to earn the trust of everyone involved in the project. I guess I sound like a real Jon Thomas fan, and I am."
