**★ — mike\_l\_lanning, Aug. 2020**

> Landmark built our house and after our experience, I wouldn’t recommend them for a project, certainly not a custom home build.  Poor responsiveness from the owners, unfinished work, and underlying quality issues is how I would describe our experience.  It took countless contact attempts over the course of a year before we would get a response, and even more time to get them to address an issue.  Our issues are still unresolved and they choose to ignore, so I'm writing this review to let others know what they can expect after your project is finished and you have any warranty work.  Save yourself the hassle and pick a different builder.

**★★ — NSP Minneapolis, Sept. 2019**

> Unfortunately we had a challenging experience with Landmark. Our project went a full eight months over the projected finish date, and was riddled with errors. A major source of delay was a big mistake by the siding/roofing subcontractor, a company that is owned by Mark, one of Landmark's owners. The project team was so overworked that they simply did not have the resources to oversee subcontractors and ensure accuracy and quality. They did fix all the mistakes and our project manager was wonderful and did the best he could but honestly it felt like things went off the rails for them. Our designer, Allison, abruptly disappeared midway through the project and we never heard from her again, despite having worked with her for over a year. We made multiple attempts to contact Dan and he never - not once - communicated with us after Allison left or made any outreach for the remainder of the job. We really hope Landmark is able to improve its systems and communications so that future clients have a better experience.

**★★★★★ — Emily Martinson, March 2019**

> We are currently in the middle of my first ever remodeling project. We have decided to stay in our house long term and wanted to open up the main level. Taking down a wall, adding steel beams, windows, doors, updating to achieve my dream. My husband and I could not be happier with Landmark.  We are working with Allison Landers , head of the Remodeling Division and her project manager Brent Barstad. Both complement each other as they guide you through the project offering advice and options to make it OUR project while explaining their suggestions backed by the experiences they bring to us.  They are respectful of our budget, property and time. I trust them as they continue to maintain their integrity throughout the project. When I walked in the other day and saw the new windows and door to open up the front area I saw my vision/dream coming together !!   We should be finished  in May and I will update with pictures of my new beautiful house!!!

**★★★★★ — Andy Campbell Design Company, March 2019**

> I have worked with Landmark on several projects and highly recommend their team for anybody looking for excellent attention to detail and a high level of service. The whole team is friendly to work with, while providing a quality end-product and easy process.

**★★★★★ — Joy Martin Architecture, Nov. 2018**

> I have worked Landmark Building Contractors, Renovation Division on a variety of projects.  Allison has coordinated walk-throughs, ball park estimates, and interiors for several of my projects and each one with an accute attention to detail.  Allison, Kirsten, and Brent are always looking out for the best interests of my clients, trying to problem solve creatively and efficiently.  Their project sites are impeccable and the "Can-Do" attitude is a welcome breath of fresh air on my jobs.  A particular perk of working with this team is their product management: fixtures, tile, lights, all arrive exactly when they are supposed to and in good condition.  I look forward to working with Landmark on our next project in January 2019!

**★★★★★ — Jerry McMahan, Nov. 2018**

> Great job by the entire Landmark Crew--Allison, Brent, Dan and Kirsten.   We have a 1930s Tudor in a Historic District and had to have a certificate of appropriateness to add a covered front porch.   The process was seamless.   We also added a mudroom at the rear of the house, converted an existing mudroom into a wet bar and roofed an upstairs balcony, added skylights, heated floor mat, new tile, retractable screens and the finished product is amazing and well used.   Thanks Team!

**Comment from Landmark Building Contractors LLC:**

> Thank you for the kind words Jerry! We were very thankful to have you as a client. The project turned out beautifully.

**★★★★★ — Danelle Reid, Nov. 2018**

> Allison, Brent and Kirsten of Landmarkk Building have been excellent to work with. They gathered a very skilled and personable team. All the work has been done with great attention to detail, on time and on budget. We give them the highest recommendation.

**★★★★★ — Residential Technology Systems, April 2018**

> Our Team at ResTech Systems has been providing Smart Home Technology systems for Landmark Building for the past couple of years.  Really enjoy working with Dan, Mark, Andrea and the supporting cast allowing their clients dreams to become reality!  Honest and straight forward communication allows for a great finished product for the homeowner!

**★★★★★ — Andrea Swan - Swan Architecture, March 2018**

> I'd highly recommend the Landmark team for your residential remodel, or new construction project.  They are professional, kind, and honest.  Working with them last year on a new home in a historic neighborhood was handled with care, patience, and attention to detail.  They were the consummate collaborator!

**★★★★★ — Tom Thissen, Feb. 2018**

> I strongly recommend Landmark Build Co. and their owner Dan Schaefer.  Landmark actually has built us two homes, the last of which was on the Luxury Home Tour last summer.  They have impeccable customer service, are a strong advocate and negotiator for you with other subcontractors and suppliers and are fairly priced with true transparency.  Most importantly, both homes that they built for us were delivered right on time!  Their are a lot of boutique home builders out there.  I strongly suggest that you talk with Dan and his excellent team.  I feel that you will quickly learn what sets Landmark apart from the others.

**★★★★★ — David Charlez Designs, Feb. 2018**

> David Charlez Designs has had the opportunity to work on many luxury home projects with Landmark Building Contractors.  Dan and Andrea work so well with their clients.  They really take the time to listen to what their clients are looking for in their dream home.  It is clear to see they establish a strong relationship with each and every client throughout the process of building a new home.  As a project partner with Landmark, their professionalism makes my firm's job of designing homes seamless.  We look forward to working with Landmark on each and every project!

**★★★★★ — Ben Ganje + Partners, Jan. 2018**

> Being a Realtor I have worked with multiple builders in the past.  Few builders match the vision and bandwidth that Landmark brings to every project.  Dan Schaefer brings a wealth of knowledge and collaboration which are the essential elements to a successful project.
