**★★★★★ — Rob Keller, Jan. 2020**

> Working with Crown Homes on my commercial remodel was a great experience.  From start to finish Crown Homes did a great job.  Their workers and subcontractors were very professional.  This was important to me since they were working inside my business and at times interacted with my clients.  Jon communicated updates to me on a weekly basis  The finished project was incredible and something I'm very proud of.  I would highly recommend anyone looking to remodel or complete a new build to contact Crown Homes.

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Rob - thank you so much for trusting us in your place of business. We're glad we exceeded your expectations! We hope you, your employees, and your clients enjoy the remodel!

**★★★★★ — CK Design, Jan. 2020**

> We had a fantastic experience working with Crown Homes.  I had prior experience with remodels on our own homes, so I knew what to expect.  But, this was particularly importantly - it was a remodel for my mother-in-law to allow her to stay in her home.
>
> It required reworking the first floor to re-purpose a family room into a bedroom and add a full bath.  In addition, we replaced the flooring on the entire first floor and added a new rear entrance.  We wanted to make sure, when it was done, that it looked like it should have always been that way.  And, it did!
>
> Every step of the process went seamlessly and with a consistent high level of quality.  Even though most of our interaction had to be remote (I live in a different state),  I received updates (and pictures documenting the progress) nearly every day.  They completed the remodel in record time, allowing my mother-in-law to be back in her home by Thanksgiving.
>
> If I could give Crown Homes more than 5 stars I would.  Fantastic team and great job!

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> We're so happy to hear that Cindy! We hope your mother-in-law enjoys her renovated home for many years to come!

**★★★★★ — Marci Johnston, Dec. 2019**

> I hired Crown Homes to custom build all of my brand new child care center’s diaper cubbies, child cubbies and teacher cabinets.  This was no small task because of the size of my childcare center. I was so impressed that they came out immediately after I called them and walked around our building site, took measurements and actually listened to what I wanted.  I felt that they were very reasonably priced for the scope of my project.  Also this project had a deadline and they met that deadline!  My cubbies and cabinets are beautiful!  They are definitely quality and they will last for decades in my center.  After the project was completed, the owner came and checked the project and made sure that I was happy with what they had done. Who does that anymore?  Well, Crown Homes does and that is actually why I hired them!  Overall, I am so pleased. Thank you for building Lil Scholars Legacy’s cubbies!  May your “legacy” live on inside my Legacy!

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Marci, thank you for such an amazing review! We're so glad we exceeded your expectations. We can't wait to hear about the opening of your center! Best of luck to you and enjoy the cubbies!

**★★★★★ — L L, Nov. 2019**

> The team at Crown Homes is very professional.   Their estimate of the work and the final bill were exactly as expected.   The project lead made sure the home was clean after the end of each workday.  He would send pictures of the progress during the day.   They communicated very well about what aspect of the project would be happening when.  They were redoing a kitchen and bathroom.   Out of a 3 week construction schedule, the kitchen was out of service for only 2 days.   Very nice!

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Thank you for such a wonderful review! We are so glad you were happy with our work!

**★★★★★ — Jim Van Bergen, Oct. 2019**

> We were extremely happy with Crown Homes from the initial contact to discuss the project to completion.  The Project Manager, Jon Jeske, did an excellent job of  keeping the project on schedule and keeping us posted of their progress from start to finish.  We would highly recommend that anyone looking for a builder in Central Iowa strongly consider Crown Homes for your contractor.

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Thank you Jim, love the pics! We're so happy to hear that!

**★★★★★ — Sergio Ancona, July 2019**

> we were recommended by our realtor Joe Henry, it was really nice to work with Andrew and follow their recommendations during the process to build our house.

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Thank you Sergio! It was a pleasure to work with you!

**★★★★★ — Sreekar Reddy, July 2019**

> Crown Homes did an Outstanding job on our first New Home at Pella. We are thankful to the entire Crew of Crown Homes. They are thoroughly professional and their project completion timing is impeccable. I recommend Crown Homes.

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Thank you Sreekar! We hope you and your family enjoy your home for many years to come!

**★★★★★ — Clayton Turner, July 2019**

> Easy company to work with, Cole was great.  Kept us informed, stayed in budget, quality work, and place was kept clean.  We had our bathroom completely redone.

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**

> Thank you Clayton! We're glad to hear you enjoyed our work!

**★★★★★ — Monty Kinseth, July 2019**

> I hired Crown Homes to construct/build a screened in porch on the back side of our house
> The project turned out better than we could  have imagined and the whole process was quite smooth. I would recommend Crown Homes to anyone looking to do a project big or small

**Comment from Alair Homes Des Moines:**
