About
When you hire Ask Adam, you're not handed off to a crew. The person who quotes your project is the person who shows up to do it.
Owner & Operator
Adam started in residential painting and construction in 2018, managing projects and crews as a project and district manager before going independent. In 2020 he founded Ask Adam, LLC on a simple premise: homeowners deserve one trusted contractor they can ask about anything — and a straight answer when they do.
Since then, Ask Adam has built a client base across Madison and Dane County on referrals and repeat work, specializing in the repair, restoration and modernization of older homes. Clients describe the same things again and again: impeccable workmanship, creative problem-solving, fair pricing, and a contractor who treats every project like it's his own house.
When a project calls for a specialist — roofing, plumbing, major electrical — Adam connects you with vetted, preferred subcontractors he trusts with his own reputation. One call. One contractor.
In Clients' Words
"Adam has done several projects for me this past year — from replacing water-damaged siding on a difficult-to-reach dormer to shoring up aging insulation in a crawl space."
Kathleen B.Multiple projects"Very thorough and went beyond. My bridge friends want your name and number — OK if I give it?"
Polly S.Home repairs"Willing to think outside the box for the project. Pleasant and nice to have around. Good skills and very fair pricing."

Estimates are free, and so is asking.
