Reviews
What customers say
Customers praise the workmanship and willingness to accommodate project needs; one homeowner highlighted attention to detail and mid-project changes. Another customer reported being left with a half-finished house after costs went far over budget, and said promises to make it right were followed by the builder stopping communication.

Lorna Harlow
Unfortunately, I do not have anything good to say about this builder. He is definitely not the man I thought he was and I truly thought I could trust him. I was so wrong.
We were 150,000 over budget and I was left with a half finished house. He jerked me around for 2 years promising to make it right and then ghosted me.
We did a cost plus contract which was a very bad way to go. Be very careful is all I can say. He claims to be transparent but he is not. His trades are gauging so make sure you get other quotes. Keep track of trade hours and verify that he is not charging you double for labour. What he actually pays his trades is less than what he is charging you. Understand your cost plus contract and keep track of everything.
Hope that helps.

Jason and his crew did not build one of my homes personally, But as a local business owner I have worked with him and his team and I would definitely recommend them to any of my clients. Jason has a ton of experience and only provides the best quality to his clients and jobs

Best contractor I could ever ask for. My house looks gorgeous because of their attention to detail. Worked well with me on my changes that I decided part way through. Excellent workmanship and great people. Highly recommend for beautiful results!!!
