Hands-On Involvement
From the initial design meeting all the way through to site inspection, John remains involved every step of the way. This hands-on and highly organized approach has led to a 100% satisfaction level with every homeowner. But he doesn’t take that achievement lightly. Rather, John works diligently and proficiently to make sure that each new client is satisfied. He sums it up this way: “I am the owner and estimator for every home we build. I also make frequent on-site inspections to ensure project integrity. This allows me to keep very close control of quality and costs.”

Making It An Enjoyable Experience
John's personal goal is to make the home-building experience an enjoyable one for customers. But that's no easy task, especially when each project is often a customer's dream home and expectations are high. That's why he takes clear and measurable steps to have a well-documented project flow, firm price estimate, and team of reliable subcontractors. He has learned from experience that these steps make the entire process more pleasant – and less frustrating.

Core Competencies At-A-Glance

5. We make the experience enjoyable for clients by treating them fairly, communicating often, giving credits back where appropriate, giving fair allowances from the start, and having an inherently easy-going disposition.
   
6. We have a highly-organized process for updating change orders and keeping the client in the loop on these changes.
