Featured Reviews for Home Builders & Construction Companies in Washington County.

Mitchell & Best Homes
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Washington County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars3 February 2015
“My wife and I purchased a new spec home from Mitchell & Best and we are thrilled with the quality and attention to detail. The house is amazingly tight, we had a gas line that was damaged during some construction on the street and were without gas for 5 hours. It was below 30 degrees and windy and during the 5 hours the house temp dropped 3 degrees from 72 down to 69. I highly recommend this builder.”
Oliver Homes, Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Washington County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 January 2014
“I have never had a home built before, but I was very happy with this builder. I am a pretty demanding customer. I can't help it. It's just the way that I am. I warned them upfront that I am afflicted with a bad case of "change-order-itus" But they were very patient with me (and charged me accordintly), professional, and very responsive to my requests for information. I was very involved with the decision making process and had a home in their portfolio custom designed to our needs. I would find ideas on Houzz that I liked and would send them the links to the pictures describing what I wanted to do. I liked that they put the prices of their models online and are creative with financing. They have been around for a long time, and rightfully so. They did not dissappear after closing and conitnued to answer any questions that I had about the building process. If I had to do it over again, I would definately hire them. Not so certain they would choose to work with ME though...... :)”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars24 May 2017
“Clarence and the Hagerstown Home Biulders crew did a wonderful job on our new deck. They kept us informed as the project progressed and always left their work area clean at the end of the day. Always courteous and professional. I would highly recommend Hagerstown Home Builders for your next home improvement project….”
Currey Custom Homes, Inc.
Home Builders & Construction Companies in Washington County.
Average rating: 5 out of 5 stars9 May 2017
“Currey Custom Homes is at the top of my list of quality builders to whom I refer my homeowner clients. Greg Currey is experienced not only in renovating older properties, but also building distinctive custom homes and other freestanding structures. He's got a high attention to detail and is a real craftsman. Nothing he does is cookie-cutter. He is as adept at adding an elevator to an existing house not originally designed for one, as he is at building a luxury timbered cabin in the remote Catoctin mountains, as he is gutting and renovating the interior of a condo. All with a smile on his face!”
C.E. Rensberger & Family Builder
