Featured Reviews for Home Builders & Construction Companies in Glen Carbon.

Mahn Custom Homes and Renovations
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Glen Carbon.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars20 February 2014
“Mike Mahn built a garage & deck addition for us in 2012. We have a walk out lower level so we replace our original wood deck with a 2-car garage with deck above. The new structure is solid surface brick and concrete that seamlessly integrates with the original home. The design & implementation are both outstanding, and it is now a focal point for both family time and outdoor entertaining. With any project in which you're dealing with existing conditions, there will be some surprises or unknowns. In our case, this did lead to some delays. Mike and the job foreman, Bob, did an excellent job of communicating throughout the process so that I understood exactly what the issues were, and how to address them. There were change orders involved, but there was a clearly defined process using a web-based job software, so there were no surprises when it came time for contractual matters and billing. Mike has always responded to call-backs without question, and continues to monitor the project in the event new issues arise. He took ownership for his work, and holds his sub-contractors to the same standard, which as a homeowner, I very much appreciate.”

NJL Custom Homes

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars27 November 2018
“NJL built a one-story custom home for me in 2017-2018. Nick and his team did a great job taking it from an architectural plan to a final product. He’s very knowledgeable about building in Kirkwood. He had great suggestions when challenges arose in the selection and building process. I was very happy with the job supervision and the quality of work from his subcontractors. They were easy to work with and very responsive to questions and requests. I would strongly recommend him to friends and family.”
Keystone Construction & Development
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Glen Carbon.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars23 March 2015
“The exterior of our house was changed completely, adding a new entryway along with a very large coat/utility closet. To accommodate the closet on the main level, it was necessary to add a room on the second floor which turned into the kids' creative suite. The downstairs bedroom became a second master suite with an updated bathroom. Both the front of the garage and second master added stone to reflect the new stone work added to the front entryway. The master suite and bathroom upstairs were totally gutted and the ceiling raised.”
