I very much enjoyed this experience and I am hopeful to work together again in the future. **★★★★★ — Nancy Welch, June 2012** > We have just completed our home with Jamison Howard and Max Crosby Construction and could not be happier.

Finished on time and on budget and home was built while we were overseas. Interior trim is hallmark of his work. Very personable and easy to work with. Never quibbled about punch list items or other work during warranty period. Adheres to a do it right the first time philosophy. Very responsive and knowledgable but if he did not have an answer he didn't BS...he researched and came back promptly. Would not hesitate to use him again. We love Jamison! **★★★★★ — jbanton, Sept. 2011** > My wife and I are in the middle of building a home by Max Crosby. Jamison Howard, President of Max Crosby Custom Homes, has been with us every step of the way. Jamison has a reserved confidence that allows him to listen to our needs while providing workable solutions within our budget. We have been pleasantly surprised that home building has not been the nightmare everyone has made it out to be. We have a few more months to go but I feel confident our home is being built by a quality builder with good integrity and should be finished within our agreed timeline. > > regards > Jeff Banton **★★★★★ — Kenneth Miller, June 2011** > I have known Jamison for over 10 years.

We built with Jamison 6 years ago and decided to build with him again now because of the quality of work and Jamison's integrity. Jamison is there with you every step of the way, from deciding on the lot, to closing and beyond. It was and still is, a privilege to build with him. **★★★★★ — Tim Watson, June 2011** > I have known Jamison Howard personally and professionally for over 10 years. He has a deep seated passion for good design, and making sure his clients expectations are exceeded. We worked together on the 2006 Southern Living Idea House on Daniel Island, which to date remains my favorite from over 4 dozen I worked on.

I did. **★★★★★ — moxley, June 2011** > I have worked with Jamison many times over the last 10-years and have learned that he is very organized and detailed. He is accurate with his detailed estimates, so his clients understand exactly what they are getting. I have been in the Banking Industry for 22 years and the way Jamison manages his expenses and runs his office makes him very easy to work because at the end of each project all the numbers add up and he solves any problems in a timely manner.
