Featured Reviews for New & Custom Home Builders in Algonquin

Harpe Development LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Algonquin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsAugust 5, 2018
“I want to sincerely thank Harpe Development for our beautiful home. With 4 children now, we really out grew our previous house and it was time for an upgrade. And WHAT an upgrade it is! Building a house is not the easiest thing to do especially when you re not handy or design savvy. But Dustin, Cory, John & Jason really made the process an easy one. I can t imagine if I didn t have Cory & John to help me pick all the things that make a house beautiful and a good fit for my family. Any request I had was always granted, but not before we discussed our options and pricing first. That s what I loved the most. There were no hidden costs, or attempts to push upgrades in places where we didn t want or need them. Harpe was always very straight forward with all so there weren t any surprises. Any time an issue occurred a solution was provided . This surprised me as well...given we were building a pretty large house. Honestly for all the things that went right when building with Harpe, they exceeded our expectations. A special shout out to Jason for this! He always had a handle on everything on-site, working with contractors and fielding my phone calls/emails daily with questions or changes. His response time was always quick and courteous! Everyone told us building a house was awful, too much work and not worth the time. Apparently those people didn t build with Harpe. I m sure glad we didn t listen. Thank you everyone for the beautiful home! We look forward to a lifetime of memories thanks to you!”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 26, 2018
“When you contact Platinum Touch, they will send people out who will be comfortable, concerned with your needs, and don’t make claims they cannot meet. As you go through the process, the people you meet will be professional and courteous. In the end, you have a well completed project.” We are very pleased with Platinum Touch. Vince listened on our first meeting and came back with what we asked, when we thought some more and the ability to express what I wanted and how we were going to use it, the designed adapted perfectly. The team was respectful of our budget and also of our needs as we stayed in our home during the construction process. There were no cost surprises or construction delays. The quality of the finished project is wonderful.”

Integrity Homes, Inc.
New & Custom Home Builders in Algonquin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 22, 2014
“We needed a contractor to do some major alterations of our just purchased home. The remodel included: gutting, design, and installation of the master bath; woodwork, gutting and raising the ceiling in our dining room; tilework in the kitchen; rebuilding a fireplace; the need for several custom pieces; replacing doors and windows; overhauling all lighting; and painting every surface. We could not have more faith in, or admiration for, Greg Tabert of Integrity Homes, Inc. We have an older home that had undergone several remodels and the demolition revealed many unpleasant surprises which Greg handled calmly and effectively. He is above all a gentleman, respected by all of his sub-contractors who, by the way, were excellent. He is a creative and willing collaborator, always ready with a pencil and a head full of wisdom and ideas. He also gave us many cost saving options along the way. Our home is now stunning and we are thrilled to see our ideas executed so beautifully. We are planning to add a sunroom/porch in the near future and very much look forward to working with Greg again.”
FAIRFIELD HOMES, INC
New & Custom Home Builders in Algonquin
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 23, 2016
“"Kevin Davis is an honest, diligent developer who does home building right. Kevin and his team at Fairfield Custom Homes who consistently put the home buyer first. They truly enjoy building relationships while building a custom home tailored for each individual and want the experience to be just as enjoyable for their clients. Having represented Fairfield as a listing agent and having represented a home buyer who purchased their first custom home with Fairfield, I was able to see both perspectives. When a home buyer has "tears of joy" at their final walk through and at the closing table, you realize you are working with a great company. Fairfield Custom Homes met every one of my client's needs. Kevin Davis is a great man of character and integrity. It's refreshing to see a home builder who respects real estate agents as much as he respects his customers. There are many good home builders in Chicago. Fairfield Custom Homes is simply one of the best." - Steve McEwen, McEwen Marketing Chicago Group | @properties”
