We built a custom home with Ironwood and are extremely happy with the process from start to finish. From meeting with Roger in the beginning to go over various questions about their style and construction process, to meeting with Keith to come up with our house design, and finally working with Shane as the PM through the building and selection process. Everyone was fantastic to work with. Especially Shane, who was always happy to answer any of our dumb questions and gave us valuable input to help us make decisions. If you're looking for a high quality Home with a stress-free process, this is who I'd recommend.

My building experience with Ironwood Builders was flawless. Roger, Joe and Shane are very competent and incredibly nice to work with. The communication and onsite consultation was excellent. Everything was presented upfront with no surprises. Even years after our house was built we still have open communication with these guys, they are all just a phone call or text away. They truly are here to help with building process and everyday after that. Ironwood is honest and easy to do business with. Quality of work is outstanding. I would highly recommend Ironwood Builders to anyone considering a custom home.

Joe and Roger, we wanted to say thank you for the excellent job you did building our new house! From the moment we met you, to completion day, you were both easy to work with. We feel very fortunate to have chosen you as our builder and would certainly choose you again without any hesitation. We could not be more pleased with our new house. Ironwood Builders has chosen to surround themselves with the best subcontractors who were very personable, hardworking, and answered all of our questions. We feel our home is a reflection of the combination of ideas that both of us had for our house. Joe and Roger were able to use their expertise to create our dream home. On a personal note, we feel privileged to have met Joe, Roger and their families and are happy to call them friends as well. We highly recommend Ironwood Builders to anyone! Thanks again, John and Lisa Hartmann

From the initial meeting to getting our keys, Ironwood Builders have been wonderful to work with. They understood that we were building our family's home, not just a house. Initially, we were overwhelmed and worried about the build process but Ironwood provided us with clear and up front bid options, design upgrades, and build progress. We were able to be involved in every decision and Ironwood answered all of our questions while guiding us through our choices. Not only is Ironwood Builders great to work with, so are their subcontractors. We were introduced to each contractor and were able to give input and hear feedback from each sub; it is their expertise and dedication to great craftsmanship that helped create our home. Joe & Roger are truly builders who care about their customers and the homes they build. We have always been welcomed and felt like our opinions and needs were heard. We would definitely recommend Ironwood Builders to any of our friends and family. Finally, we would like to mention Shane Wenger, he was our general contractor throughout the build. Shane was available and willing to meet with us as often as we needed. He understood our vision and did a wonderful job of making it a reality. We were not sure what to expect from the build process, but thanks to Shane it went smoothly, was enjoyable, and we are so thankful.
