### Reviews

**★★★★★ — L Christensen Design, Dec. 2020**

> My husband and I could not be more pleased that we partnered with Jeff and Shelby to build our home. The entire process spanned the course of a few years, their team patiently worked with us through each phase to ensure that every detail came to life. The staff is professional, detail oriented, and thorough. Thank you to the entire team, we love our new home!

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> We enjoyed working with you and getting to know your family. Your home is literally jaw dropping. It was a pleasure to work on your dreams, ideas and create a home that is amazing, family friendly and timeless. We miss seeing you all on a weekly basis.

**★★★★★ — Ali Hushyar, Nov. 2020**

> 2 years ago my wife and I decided to pursue our dream home but we had no clue or plan on how to achieve it.  How do you even start?    Too often in life things don't come easy, but when they do, it's an absolute blessing.  I can't express enough how amazing our experience has been with the Fautt Homes team.  When you invest and commit to a forever home, it's has to be more than just a business engagement.  With Fautt, it is family - and that's how they treat their cilents.  You are not just hiring the best design-to-build firm in the business, you are getting a partner in one of the biggest decisions in your life.  For my family, it's been 5 months now in our beautiful home, and we still can't believe it's our new reality.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> We miss seeing you and your family on a weekly and sometimes daily basis. Your home is amazing!!

**★★★★★ — Stacy Stream, Jan. 2019**

> Fautt Homes delivers an exceptional Custom Home Building experience from start to finish! Their attention to detail is second to none and they have an extraordinary eye for design tailored to the luxury homeowner. Jeff and Shelby are a joy to work alongside and their professionalism, dedication and personalized care is exemplary. We are overjoyed with our decision to purchase a Fautt Home.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> Thank you! Your home is amazing and also you are amazing to work with.

**★★★★★ — Josh Hamblin, Dec. 2018**

> The highest quality in custom home construction. Owners Shelby and Jeff take pride in their work and are devoted to providing the best customer experience. Experts in building paired with an excellent taste in design, these two have created a culture that both clients and contractors enjoy working with.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> Thanks so much. We enjoy working with you as well.

**★★★★★ — Haley Tile Company, Dec. 2018**

> I have been a business professional working with Fautt Homes for quite some time and I am always impressed with their ability to exceed the client’s expectations. Fautt Homes goal is to work together with their client’s vision, combined with their artistry to help them achieve a dream home from framing to lighting selections, tile layouts, scheduling sub-contractors, landscape, and pool design and more.

**★★★★★ — Gina Velazquez, Dec. 2018**

> We have had the pleasure of working with Fautt Homes for 6+ months. From the point of contact, Shelby and her team have been professional, patient and understanding. We are excited for the many more projects in the future.

**★★★★★ — Matt Macomber, July 2018**

> Fautt Homes recently completed construction on our new home in Alamo. Their entire team is obsessed with quality construction and client satisfaction. They far exceeded our expectations in both. Their design selections, craftsmanship, and attention to detail are truly remarkable. Additionally, working with them through the build process was stress free, with no surprises, and any of our changes were met with enthusiasm and strong partnership. All their crews shared their passion for putting out a great product, very professional and very skilled. We could not be happier with our new home and recommend Fautt Homes without reservation.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> We enjoyed building your home for you and your family. We are happy we exceeded your expectations.

**★★★★★ — Jim Ellison, Oct. 2017**

> We have been working for Fautt Homes regularly for over eight years as a subcontractor. Their knowledge, quality, attention to detail and outstanding design is exceptional. We start all of their projects knowing exactly what rough and finish products will be used...rarely do we have a change order as construction contingencies are thought out well in advance. This results in projects being completed on schedule and as budgeted. Fautt Homes is truly the cream at the top of the custom home builders in the Bay Area.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> Thank you Jim we really enjoy working with you as well.

**★★★★★ — Harold Pimental, Oct. 2017**

> I have been involved with them on several projects as a product supplier. They are very professional and dedicated to the quality of the finished project. I have been in this industry for over 20 years, and their commitment to the customer is rare.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> Thank you Harold. You are amazing what you do as well!

**★★★★★ — kathleenanderson31, Oct. 2017**

> I'm very happy & would recommend Fautt homes to all that want a fabulous home.

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

**★★★★★ — akb4203, July 2017**

> We are so pleased that we chose Fautt Homes to build our Napa style Farmhouse. Jeff and Shelby were with us every step of the way from the architectural creation, choosing of build materials, design finishes, and timeline ending with an incredibly finished home. It was so enjoyable to be a part of the selection process for the tile, paint, lighting, flooring, etc.  Fautt Homes has wonderful employees and stand behind their work. Thank you to everyone at Fautt Homes for making our dreams a reality!

**Comment from Fautt Homes:**

> It was such a joy to work you and your family. It was fun putting all your ideas on paper and making it happen.

**★★★★ — alsantaines, June 2017**

> Project will be completed Aug 2017. Quality of work is excellent. Delays in construction is attributed to city approvals causing long delays. Biggest problem,is PG&E. Contractor don't have any contact to move project. Overall ratings, excellent work.

## Community Q&A

**Q: where can I buy the wall unit?** *(in Photo Questions)*

I'm looking for a wall unit my builders can assemble while working on our reno. Love the color.

A: This is a custom cabinet from a local cabinet co.

**Q: Love the sectional.  Where is it from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Love the sectional in the Lake house.  where is it from?

A: The sectional sofa is the cloud sofa from Restoration Hardware.

**Q: how wide are the open shelves and how wide are the cabinets please** *(in Photo Questions)*

wondering how long this space is altogether

A: All of our cabs are custom made. This is an older project and I dont have the plans in front me. It looks like the cabiniet is about 7 1/2  ft long. The open shelves looks lke thye are about 5 ft. Every home is different. We did not want the cabinet wall to wall so we pulled it away from the each side a few feet. You want to make sure the upperr towers are a good size an proportioned with the open shelves. Scale is verry import. You do not want to skinny or to wide of towers.

**Q: What plumbing fixtures are these?** *(in Photo Questions)*

What plumbing fixtures are these?

A: This from the Kohler line called Margaux in polished nickel.  I think it does not come in the x handle but now just a lever last time I checked.

**Q: also, about the floor tiles** *(in Photo Questions)*

The Carrara floor tile - what is the size and color you used?  Grout too if possible.
Thank you
Debi

A: We used a 12 x 24 tile and bright white grout.

**Q: tile on bathroom floor** *(in Photo Questions)*

Hi can you please tell me what color the tile is on the floor?
Thank you
Debi

A: Carrara is always gray.  Thasso's is white marble which I use a lot.
