Joan Smith on Dominion Custom Homes

Jim and I had the good fortune and privilege to find John Kerber and Dominion Custom Homes and worked with him to construct our new home.

He was very easy to work with and was very willing to look at different building lots to see how the house we were thinking of building work fit.

We were living in Northern Virginia at the time and once we got going, John was very willing to see us on the weekends to go over our plans. One of the things he wanted to be sure of including was building an ADA compliant home. We wanted a home with everything we would need to be on one floor. We did not consider needing wider doorways, no stairs to get into the front door, or a roll in shower with a seat and grab bars. John made sure we had all those things included as this was to be our retirement home.

We have been in our marvelous home for 7 years and every day continue to be amazed at how beautifully built it is. Jim broke his foot recently and we were extremely grateful that he was able to get around on a scooter and then a walker without the added difficulty of stairs, and narrow doorways. Having the roll in shower and bench was a great help.

John was more than attentive to each detail of our building process. His kindness and patience along with his excellent building experience made the whole process of picking out a lot and building a custom home very pleasant and easy. We would highly recommend him to anyone who is interested in building a home. John is the best.

I have worked on multiple projects with John, Monica and Walter and it is always great to be around such dedicated professionals.

They are dedicated to making the process smooth for all involved. If you have the chance to tour any of his homes, you will see that the quality of construction and craftsmanship speaks for itself. I highly recommend Dominion Custom Homes to anyone looking to build high-end custom in the Charlottesville area.

Johnny Johnson on Dominion Custom Homes

John Kerber and his company, Dominion Custom Homes does an outstanding job. As a real estate associate broker with many years of new home construction experience, I will say that John and his people do an extremely professional and quality job. They are very detailed oriented and customer friendly. My recent experience was representing my 'out or town' client with a custom designed home which is there 'retirement home'. John and his crew met all of their needs in building a beautiful contemporary home which they are most pleased. Along with my client, we could not have asked for a more complete and pleasant experience. John is of the utmost professional builder I have ever worked with and I would highly recommend him to build your custom home. Thank you, John and Dominion Custom Homes.

Paul Clark on Dominion Custom Homes

I had the wonderful experience of touring some of Dominion's Homes and talking with their homeowners. What a delightful experience. The homes were beautiful and well thought out. The attention to detail was outstanding. John Kerber certainly knows how to build quality custom homes. He also has a talent for taking care of his customer's needs and turning their hopes into their dream home. This was evident in the responses I received from his clients as I talked about their experiences. I would recommend John to anyone relocating from Northern Virginia or anyone considering a new home in the Charlottesville Virginia area. You will not be disappointed!
