Featured Reviews for Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.

Mid-Atlantic Custom Builders
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 June 2016
“I bought a home from Mid Atlantic about 6 months ago and I couldn't be happier. They built a quality home that suits my family perfectly. I am a local Realtor and see comparable homes often, nothing compares to the home I purchased. The best part about it is that if something needed adjustment or repair, Mid Atlantic was on top of it right away to make sure everything was working properly and that we were happy. Well done Mid Atlantic.”
Alair Homes Arlington
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars14 July 2013
“In the past we used a design/build company and did not feel that we had control over the process or the budget. When we reviewed the bill we found the mark-up was excessive, especially when sub-contractors were used for most of the work. This time around we chose to use Chad with Arlington Construction Mangement because of the ability to control expenses, choose the products used in building our addition and select our own sub-contractors. The ability to get several estimates and meet the subs for each trade beforehand made a huge difference in our experience. We completed our project 2 months earlier than predicted and were able to stay within budget. We ended up saving 28% from our lowest bid and we were able to use upgraded products along the way. Chad gave us great advice, support and knowledge to help us through our project. I know we would not have received the same personal service from any other builder. We would use Chad again and would highly recommend him to anyone looking into building.”
Natelli Homes
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2014
“We bought a tear down and had Natelli Homes build a custom home. All of the employees are very easy to work with and handled the project with ease. The house was completed exactly on time and I couldn't be happier with the quality of work that was provided.”
PACE Design & Construction
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 January 2022
“PACE is a one of a kind design + build firm. I just can’t say enough good things about them! First off, they do great work and do it in a very transparent and fair way. The customer service is off the charts, the quality of their craftsmanship is incredible, and the overall experience of working with true professionals in the building and remodeling industry is so valuable to the success of a project. Between Seth, Jordan, Terris, Yuri, Brad and the rest of the crew, you won’t be sorry to have chosen this company for your next Project. Thanks for everything!!”
Zimmermann Homes
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars10 May 2017
“It is with great enthusiasm that we write this letter of recommendation in support of Zimmermann Homes. We found our new 6 bedroom Falls Church, VA home after it was completed, but Rob worked with us to add customizations that turned an already well-built and well-designed home into one that reflected our preferences and needs. Having toured many new construction homes in the Falls Church area, I can attest to the build quality and tasteful design choices implemented by Rob and his team. Zimmerman Homes exceeded the level of service and satisfaction we were expecting, and delivered a home at a tremendous value that I have not encountered anywhere in this in-demand area. The community this house was built in is outstanding and my family is excited about our upcoming move-in. Thanks Rob and Team!”
Laurence Cafritz Builders
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 May 2016
“Laurence Cafritz Builders is one of the very finest home builders in the entire DC metro area. I've worked with Larry for years, and his attention to detail and craftsmanship, combined with his absolute integrity and commitment to customer service, put him at the very top of anyone's list. As my father-in-law would say, "Larry's a stand-up guy". I whole-heartedly recommend Larry and his company! You will have a wonderful experience, and an awesome house!”
Signature Dream Homes
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 March 2018
“After interviewing many contractors, we selected Rick Oliver and Signature Dream Homes for our complete kitchen gut/remodel. It involved lots of tricky aspects due to the age of the house, but his team of professionals handled it all with no problem. We are delighted with the results and always get compliments whenever someone visits. Best of all, Rick is honest. despite facing hidden hurdles in the job, he never tried to rip us off with "change orders." You can trust him to do a great job at the price he quotes.”
Kingston Royce Homes, LLC
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars21 March 2014
“We wanted to transform a builder-basic basement into a more custom design to meet our needs. Arlen at Kingston Royce helped us shape the details and executed on an amazing finished product. It was important to us that the project include specific elements, but also complimented the stylistic details of the rest of the house. The finished product is so seamless that our guests and family have trouble remembering what it looked like before construction!”
Greenbuilders, Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars29 June 2014
“I have had the privilege of knowing Greenbuilders, Inc. for over 15 years. I can not recommend this company, or Polly Bart, more highly! I believe their greatest attribute is their integrity. For an environmentally conscious organization, I trust them inherently to produce the highest standard, to be impeccably honest, to take on full responsibility and accountability for a project and to gift me with their best customer service. It's actually an honor to be able to review this company. Even after moving out of the area, I still rely on this company, specifically award-winning Polly Bart, as a resource for knowing the best and latest practices of green construction and building. As a web designer, I had the joy of being asked to build the www.greenbuilders.com website. Talk about pressure! I wanted to make sure the website was an extension of this amazing company. Here is the video showing one of Polly's projects. I think it speaks volumes for what you can expect from Greenbuilders, Inc.! http://vimeo.com/76246822”
Ziberty
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Ellicott City.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars7 August 2017
“Ziberty renovated my house, and I had a great experience! I was on a tight timeline, and they quickly digested what I wanted and started right away. I was really pleased that they finished on budget and ahead of schedule. They took our trust in them seriously, and truly cared about our project from start to finish. I give them the highest recommendation for excellent workmanship and outstanding responsiveness.”
