The lot we owned made it a very challenging build that Dan assured us he could work with. We had a couple problems after we moved in but Dan and his crew were very responsive and came out to take care of it to our satisfaction. We love our home! It is extremely well built. I would highly recommend Spear builders to anyone!! **★★★★★ — Catherine DeVito, Aug. 2019** > Dan and Debbie Spear ARE Spear Builders. Their quality and pride in their craftsmanship surpasses any other I have seen in the past. They are invested in your project from start to finish. They listen to your wishes and dreams and make them come true! **★★★★★ — Bonnie & Larry Harrison, Nov. 2017** > We contracted with Spear Builders to do a large addition to our cottage at Fairview Beach VA several years back. All work was done in an extremely professional manner and the work was completed on time. We could not have been more pleased with how Spear Builders handled our addition. We have had no call backs or any problems with their work and would recommend them without question. **★★★★★ — Jennifer Sharon, Nov. 2017** > Best builders worldwide! I can't say enough good things about this company! We had our first home built by Spear and they made it so easy and best of all enjoyable! Can't wait to have our next home designed and built by these guys! They are the BEST! **★★★★★ — Wade Chewning, Aug. 2017** > Spearbuilders helped me and my family in restoring a barn that had been on our property since the 50s. Jon was a pleasure to work with and the pricing was extremely fair. The project was done with a very quick turnover and we couldn't be happier. Thanks again Spearbuilders! **★★★★★ — Jennifer Jordan, Aug. 2017** > Dan Spear made my first home building experience amazing. We were the 10th house to be built in our development at the time and our home definitely stood out. Being a young married couple with no previous building experience Dan made sure we understood every step of the process **★★★★★ — Beth Spillman, Aug. 2017** > Great Company to work with Very professional and knowledgeable of the building industry.
