Sorry but would not recommend this builder. **★ — HU-424099036, Aug. 2022** > We have a home we bought from Diamante in 2021, and there was a list of issues which needed to be completed which the builder agreed to complete within a few months. These issues included faulty and wrong light connections, fireplace not working, missing window screens, some missing door hardware, and so on. Now as we are approaching almost 10 months after our closing date this list is still not finished by the builder. We recently heard that they have also gone into bankruptcy. > When you pay such a high price for a luxury home you expect a certain level of professionalism which we have not seen from this team at all. > We would not recommend this construction team to anyone at this point. **★★★★★ — Triple W Products, April 2019** > I have worked with leonard, NiK, Michael, Keith, and Chris and they are very nice. They build > very nice beautiful homes. **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thanks Triple W Products!! We enjoy working with you and your company. We appreciate the service and “can do” attitude. We look forward to many years to come pleasing our customers together. **★★★★★ — Aaron S, April 2019** > Top notch customer service to go along with a top notch finished product! Being in the mortgage industry myself I interviewed countess builders but settled on Diamante. From the time of my initial meeting to the closing of my loan Keith and Bridget were with me every step of the way. They worked with my budget and went above and beyond to help create a one of kind of custom home. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a custom home builder with an impeccable reputation. **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > We are so thankful for homeowners like you Aaron! We appreciate the opportunity that you have given us. Thanks again for choosing Diamante Custom Homes **★★★★★ — Kelly Collums, Feb. 2018** > Diamante Homes is building a home for my clients. Keith Norman, with Diamante has been the ultimate professional. My clients live out of the state so keeping them up to date on the process is of the utmost importance. Diamante uses the latest technology to keep my clients and myself in the loop. The property has very challenging topography and not just any builder could be trusted to build there. I have ever confidence that Diamante can and will get the job done. It's my reputation on the line when I recommend a builder. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Keith Norman and Diamante Custom Homes **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thank you so much Kelly for your kind review! We are more than thankful to work with such professionalism like yourself. More than anything, we are extremely fortunate to have established such a wonderful friendship/relationship with you and our clients! We look forward to building even more...the best is yet to come! **★★★★★ — Kanishka Monis, Jan. 2018** > Custom home building is VERY exciting!! Just like anything in life there is always "bumps" on the road!!! Having the "RIGHT VEHICLE" to get you through these "BUMPS" is the KEY!! > Diamante Custom Homes is that "RIGHT VEHICLE" to get you through this process. Keith is very kind and PATIENT. Chris Pastrano is easy to talk to and communicates clearly to minimize confusion. When there is 20 moving parts to a project communication and clarity becomes very important. Janis is an advocate for the homeowner and VERY knowledgeable. > I think she has won couple of accounting awards! **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Kanishka > > During the homeowner builder interview process we try just as hard to vet the people sitting across the table from us. We remain grateful that we chose to build for you and your family, but even more grateful that you chose us! > > Our team works extremely hard to build a high quality home with a very high communicative process. There are bumps along the way, but as long as we can properly identify, prescribe, and find a solution that best benefits our homeowners then we all win! > > Thank you again for the kind words and even though we did not plan on becoming best friends at the onset, it looks like it just happened that way. > > We look forward to many parties at the Monis residence for years to come! > > Respectfully, > > Adam Sanchez, President **★★★★★ — A-Design By Gustavo Arredondo, Inc., Jan. 2018** > Have been working with Diamante Homes for couple of years now and they have been great to work with, they do have a great reputation and execute the plans perfectly, also great costumer service. Looking forward to a long relationship. **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thank you for your review as we also look forward to a long lasting relationship with your company! Happy New Year! **★★★★★ — Adam Rivera, Dec. 2017** > My team has been working with Diamante Custom Homes for quite sometime. They execute plans extremely well and that is why their reputation is flawless in the industry. They are meticulous in detail and absolutely wonderful to work with.

Communication was great throughout the build process. I’ve have had several home builders come into our home since we moved in and they have all made comments about how nice the build out was. **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thank you for your review Mr. Chapman! We are thrilled that you have had a great experience with Diamante. Wishing you the best and Happy New Year! **★★★★★ — John Cortissoz, Dec. 2017** > I have financed quite a few homes over the last 10 years that Diamante has built. They operate with integrity, focus on their clients needs and complete projects in a timely manner. People who build with them appreciate the attention to detail and workmanship. The whole team is very professional and genuinely care about client satisfaction. **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thank you for your kind review John! We are thrilled to have such a strong lasting relationship with you and look forward to building much more in the near future! **★★★★★ — Pilot Guy, Nov. 2017** > Diamante took us from concept to "Parade Home." If you can dream it, Diamante WILL BUILD, and that's exactly what they did for us. Our gallery https://www.houzz.com/projects/2764870/hill-country-chic hardly does justice to how sturdy, luxurious, comfortable, and a joy our house is to live in. Finally, we get a lot of attention to our aircraft hangar viewable from the upstairs office. I would highly recommend this company for the discerned, overly involved, attention-oriented prospective home buyers. > > Thanks, Team! **Comment from Diamante Custom Homes:** > Thank you for your review Pilot Guy! We are extremely honored to be your custom home builder and thankful for such an awesome opportunity! We had such a blast building your aircraft hangar...You are like family now!!! **★★★★★ — whodatiz, July 2017** > Expertly designed and built our world class custom home - Complete with a 2000 sq feet airplane hangar. Very friendly and professional staff at Diamanté Custom Homes!

It conjured up images of 1950s suburbia or a drawing room from the Victorian era. But today, you no longer need to wonder “Is wallpaper in style?” because it is everywhere – bigger, bolder and more unique than ever before! There are several reasons why wallpaper is back and being used in interior design. The Wallpaper Appeal The appeal for wallpaper has blossomed in the last few years, and it is showing no signs of withering away. “The interesting aspect about wallpaper today is that there isn’t one overriding trend,” explains Lorrie Hochuli, Interior Designer for Hochuli Design & Remodeling Team, LLC. “There is so much variety available that it really allows us to show off our personality and customize our homes.” Gone are the subtle prints and colors. Wallpaper today is often big, bold and bright. Mary DeWalt, CMP, MIRM, President of Mary DeWalt Design Group, explains that she feels the resurgence in wallpaper is tied to another trend rebirth – Bohemian décor – a perfect blend of eclectic and fun. According to Lita Dirks, CEO, Lita Dirks & Co., LLC, one of the reasons why wallpaper is such a hot trend is because “wallpaper adds comfort and warmth into our spaces. For so many years, we had such simple, clean designs – almost naked – and now people want to bring design character and personality back into their homes.” Photo courtesy of Lita Dirks & Co., LLC Dirks notes that the resurgence is occurring in two main areas: texture and drama. Taken literally, textured papers create a focal point backdrop to a simpler, cleaner look. “Textured wallpapers add another sense to a room – touch – where you can feel the grass cloth, velvet or leather on the walls,” says Dirks. These papers add a tremendous amount of warmth and character to a space. Texture can also be created by the wallpaper pattern itself. Natural stone, greenery and geometric shapes will add a splash of color and dimension to a room. Photo courtesy of Lita Dirks & Co., LLC Additionally, wallpaper can add drama. Whether an entire wall is papered or simply framed out, these huge images add the element of fun back into a home. “Whatever the imagery is, it’s bolder than life – wonderful large wallpaper patterns of leaves, flowers or geometric shapes,” explains Dirks. In fact, that’s one of the greatest appeals of wallpaper for many consumers – the unlimited possibilities of choices. Wallpaper is now printed digitally, so one-of-a-kind designs can be created. Dirks notes, “In the past, designing your own wallpaper was too pricey for most consumers, but technology has made this option affordable.” Another benefit to today’s wallpaper is that it no longer must be permanent – or at least long-term – as once was the case. According to Hochuli, “Wallpaper is much easier to remove, and for that reason, you’ll see more wallpaper being used in rental properties and dorm rooms.” Modern Wallpaper Designs for Today’s Homes Where is wallpaper being used? Perhaps the better question is, where isn’t it being used? Here are some places wallpaper is trending within the walls of our homes: In smaller spaces, such as an office nook or powder room, where larger prints of traditional four-wall wrap expand the perceived square footage. On focal point walls, particularly in bedrooms, where personality can be added with paper. In hallways, which are being wainscoted with textured, or embossed, wallpaper. On large walls, where wallpaper can serve as tapestry or art. Mural-styled wallpaper is also seeing a resurgence. On staircase risers, for a subtle flair — or go bold by wallpapering the entire stairwell. On ceilings, particularly in dining rooms and studies. On open shelving, whether it is in the kitchen or on a bookcase. Photo courtesy of Lita Dirks & Co., LLC What’s next for wallpaper? Only time will tell – but it looks like this modern wallpaper trend is just getting started, and we’ll see even more creative prints, textures and applications in the coming year. This post originally appeared in the NAHB Best American Living Blog, written by Tess Wittler A: Wallpaper is the IN thing now days! You can really dress up a room with an accent wall, add some texture or metal tones. We love this stuff and more clients are wanting to incorporate this into different areas of their home. **Q: Stone** *(in Photo Questions)* What type of stone is this and what is the name? A: Thanks for your question. This is a Oklahoma Chop Veneer Ledge Stone. Please let us know any other questions you have. **Q: Stone and floor** *(in Photo Questions)* Great combo of large stone and tile. What is the name of the stone and tile. Thanks A: Thanks for your comment. The tile is a natural limestone. The stone is a Oklahoma Chop natural stone and it is laid in a dry stack method. Please let us know any other questions. **Q: Stone color** *(in Photo Questions)* Very nice stone, where did you purchase and what is the name? A: Thanks for your question. The stone on the pool is a Oklahoma Chop Veneer and the stair walls have an Oklahoma flagstone. Please let us know any other questions. --- *Source: Houzz professional profile.
