Your search for a builder

"You better always be on the level with people. Not everyone is going to agree with you, but they better have confidence in you." - Louis Rukeyser (1933-2006)

No matter who you decide to build with, meet them face to face, talk to them, ask them questions and use your judgement to determine if you can trust this builder and have a relationship with them. Before construction, during construction, and after you move in, things will not go perfectly smooth. Do you have faith that the person you choose to build your home will be there to take care of things that may not be quite right?

We welcome all opportunities to work

I've had people inquire as to whether we'll do smaller houses. This makes me feel that we have not done our job in communicating that, although we've done million dollar houses and have renderings of models that we've done on our web site that are larger than what most people want to build, we can bring that same quality to more reasonably sized homes. We appreciate all work and and like to think that we'll bring the same level of quality and personal contact to a 2,000 square foot house as we'll bring to a 6,000 sqaure foot home.

In the end, you get what you pay for as far as quality of work goes. And with us, included with your price is a personal touch with the ability to communicate and work with the pricipal, ME, involved with every decision in the company. In your personal experiences with businesses, is there any person in a company that cares more than the owner of that company? The owner's business is an extension of themselves and their involvement sets the standard for the work that is produced.

Pricing: Money Saving Suggestions

Cabinets are beautiful and very necessary, but can also be very costly. Pick your spots for built in cabinetry carefully, or look for alternate ways to accomplish what you'd wanted from furniture and cabinets and use drywall shelving as an alternate approach. Having less locations of cabinetry can save you money. You can always add cabinets at a later date. They are one of those items, like light fixtures and plumbing fixtures, that you can use to "grow into your home."

Also, you may want to think about going to paint grade cabinets to save money on material. Paint grade cabinets will show more wear, but if they are placed in the right spots can really brighten up a room.
