Home Extensions in Raleigh.

“We searched for the right builder for three years before we found the Radford Building Co. We interviewed several builders, and considered many options. After our first meeting, we knew we had found our builder. Jason and Kenny made us immediately feel comfortable and confident. They sought to understand not just our building requirements, but also our personalities, our intentions, and our ultimate vision for the build. The team has been upfront and personable throughout the entire process, from site selection and design to making selections, and the actual build. One of the most exciting points of the process was when the foundation went in. The care and precision that went into our foundation assured us that this was going to be a solid build, and this feeling remained throughout the entire process. The team invited our questions and concerns and took our opinions to heart. We felt heard, valued, and cared for. Since we moved in, the Radford Building Co. has continued to partner with us to make sure we are satisfied with our new home and has taken care of any outstanding tasks. We have already been recommending them to friends who are thinking about building. We would partner with the Radford Buiding Co. again, but now that we have such a beautiful and well build home, I don’t think we will ever move!”

“White Oak Custom Builders (Justin Hartman) was the contractor for a very extensive remodeling project of my house in 2013. The scope of the remodeling involved window replacement (22 windows and 6 patio doors and all new interior doors), interior wall and flooring system replacement, three decks, a new roof structure (approximately 2400 sq. ft.) and all new interior trim for what became a three level house, originally built in 1950. While major remodeling is inherently stressful for almost any homeowner, Justin’s services as a contractor were invaluable, and I am extremely pleased with the final result. Specifically, I would give Justin top marks in the following areas: 1. Quality of work performed. The quality of work done was consistently top notch. Justin knowledgeable, skilled, and competent and is conscientious about following project specifications, and his work product rarely needs improvement or revision. 2. Project management and coordination. Justin’s prior experience working in construction really paid off. He was knowledgeable about all aspects of our project, and was able to plan, coordinate and manage the activities of different work crews effectively. He remained closely involved in overseeing the project from start to finish. His excellent attention to detail, strong organizational skills and commitment to follow-through are assets which enabled him to juggle the extensive details involved in our project without missing a beat. Justin’s familiarity with building codes also facilitated a smooth and hassle-free process when it came to building permits and inspection. 3. Integrity and professionalism. Throughout the project, I was impressed with Justin’s commitment to generating a top quality product, rather than maximizing his profit margin. When situations arose where extra work needed to be done (because of hidden problems that were not apparent until work on the house had commenced), Justin either (if it was relatively minor) took care of it, or (if it was more extensive) involved me in an informed decision making. 4. Effective communication. Justin kept me closely informed of work crew schedules, delivery dates, and projected completion dates of different phases of our project. His communication (whether by cell phone or email) was always clear, informative, and helpful. He was either available on his cell phone, or returned my phone call within 2-3 hours. We never had a single miscommunication throughout the project. 5. Flexibility and effectiveness in dealing with unexpected developments. When unforeseen problems surfaced (e.g., termite damage in a wall, structural problems with the existing floor and roof system), Justin worked diligently with me to identify a solution that was acceptable to me. He utilized resources effectively (e.g., recommending the services of a structural engineer in a limited fashion) and creatively to make changes necessary for implementing required solutions. 6. Sensitivity to worksite appearance and neighbor relations. Our project required huge dumpsters and a portable toilet (for the work crew), and there was very limited parking. Justin’s placement of the dumpster, portable toilet, and construction materials was based not solely on function and convenience, but showed a consideration for the aesthetics of the worksite. The work crew parked their vehicles in ways that were minimally disruptive to the neighborhood traffic, and their conduct never caused any discomfort to our neighbors. In the period of this project, there was not one single neighbor complaint! Instead, three different neighbors passed on compliments about the work. In closing, I am very pleased with the final product which Justin was instrumental in delivering, and I am extremely impressed with his work as a contractor. In a world where shoddy workmanship and poor service are unfortunately all too common, Justin is indeed a rare find. I would not hesitate to hire Justin again, or to recommend him to my friends and neighbors. I recommend White Oak Custom Builders to you most enthusiastically, and without any reservations.”

“We have chosen Bold Construction to build our dream house. After interviewing numerous builders we ultimately choose Bold Construction due to their knowledge and vision for our project. After working with them since March 2015 we are so happy with the results, and we are looking forward to moving into our new house soon! Every professional working at Bold Construction has a great attitude, has expertise in their field, and they are so pleasant to work with. I would highly recommend Bold Construction to anyone looking for a beautiful, timely, and on budget project!”

“AG Homes was an excellent firm to work for. They provided clear directions as to what was expected and necessary details in order to complete the work efficiently and with no delays. If there were any questions they were always very quick to respond and get answers.”

“DJF Builders is one of the very best builders in the Triangle area - amazing design and best of quality construction. Highly recommend to anyone who is going to build a new home!”

“Travis and Laura were amazing to work with on the complete construction of our home from foundation to mailbox! They listened carefully and met with us to make our vision a reality on schedule. They personally were available to answer questions throughout the project and after the closing. Highest quality workmanship, advice, and hand-holding. Highly recommend!”

“Layton Wheeler is a pleasure to work with - an artist and masterful craftsman as a good man in a storm. Hardworking and well-prepared, Layton's thoroughness and attention to detail in the face of the multitude of simultaneous tasks that are the contractor's daily regime is nothing short of Zen. I have thoroughly enjoyed my experience working with Layton and his partner Mary, and I would do it again in a heartbeat - in fact I plan to at every available opportunity.”

“Shane Ogilvie is a visionary problem-solver who is fair, transparent, and reliable. Not sure what more you can ask from a builder. Shane and I worked together to remodel a 1965 ranch in North Raleigh. Shane's ideas for the renovation exceeded my expectations. He took four small rooms in the front of the house and created one open contemporary living space. He brought in a 35-foot beam and vaulted the ceiling. In the back of the house, he combined two of the four bedrooms and created a master bedroom suite with a luxurious bathroom and a large walk-in closet. Everyone that walks into my house says, "wow"! Shane also did a great job of keeping me within my budget. How many builders do that? We came across some snags along the way due to COVID. Shane sourced multiple vendors and kept the renovation on schedule. Shane has built and renovated many homes in my north Raleigh neighborhood of Fairfax Hills. He is single-handedly beautifying the community while increasing property values.”

“We had a wonderful experience with the Grau Building team! Jeff Grau and his colleagues are educated professionals who speak our language. Our project was a true partnership thanks to the proactivity and responsiveness of Jeff and his associates. The online project management tool Grau Building Co uses proved to be an excellent resource for us--we could both login at any time to check on the status of a given task, review timelines, make decisions, look at the budget, ask questions, etc. For 2 busy working parents, the online system kept us organized and on task, which translated into on-time project completion by Jeff and his team. I would absolutely use Grau Building Co again.”

“Allure Homes, LLC was the builder for my family's first home. The construction process was stress-free and well coordinated. I believe the detail and quality of each facet of our home is noticeably higher than other homes in our neighborhood in comparable price ranges, which is a credit to Allure Homes. I would recommend Allure Homes as a builder/project facilitator to anyone who asked for information about builders in the triangle area.”
