Did a terrific job building our luxury home on Aria Isle in The Woodlands based on our design. Excellent follow-up post construction.

What an amazing experience working with Matt Powers and his team! From the conceptual design through the final product, I could not be more pleased with the result. They provided realistic budgets and timelines, and finished on time and on budget. What was most impressive was the honesty and integrity always on display: they helped us pivot from a renovation to a demo/rebuild (not an easy decision!) and have followed up months after the fact to fix minor issues. It is very obvious that the entire team truly cares; they really treat you like family. The quality of the finished product was outstanding. I would highly recommend Matt Powers to anyone.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Matt Powers Custom Home to build our dream home, and the experience exceeded all our expectations. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, their professionalism, craftsmanship, and attention to detail were evident every step of the way. We specifically worked with Jeff, him and the entire team was incredibly responsive and patient, taking the time to understand our vision and offering creative solutions to make it even better. As a first time home builder this was very appreciative. They maintained clear communication throughout the process, keeping us informed about timelines, budgets, and any adjustments needed. The quality of their work speaks for itself. Every corner of our home reflects superior craftsmanship and a well thought out design. What stood out most was their dedication to making the process stress-free. They handled challenges with ease, ensuring the project stayed on track while addressing any concerns we had promptly and professionally. We now have a home that perfectly fits our lifestyle and reflects our personal style, and we couldn’t be happier. If you’re looking for a home builder who is reliable, skilled, and genuinely cares about their clients, we highly recommend Matt Powers Custom Home Builder. They turned our dream into a reality, and we are forever grateful!

Matt Powers and his team are an absolute pleasure to work with. We purchased a home through his wife, Laura Powers (a dream realtor). We did a large renovation including tile and hardwood floors, bathrooms, extensive painting inside and out, replaced windows in the whole house, and some minor kitchen remodeling. Beau Parker was our project manager and he was patient, thorough, and a pleasure to work with. Matt and all his team are high integrity people who work hard to provide the best service and outcome possible. I highly recommend them.

We were about to be new empty nesters and knew we wanted to move to the country. We bought 1.5 acres in Stallion Lakes, a new development in Hockley, Texas. We had a choice in builders, but I knew my choice would be Matt Powers Custom Homes. I had done my research and seen some of the beautiful modern transitional style homes he had built in The Woodlands area. My husband and I sat down with Matt and he gave us comfort and confidence he could build my dream home. Matt directed us first to an architect we could trust. Once we were ready to start, we were introduced to Jeff Kowalski, who would be our Superintendent throughout the building process. From the beginning, it was evident that Jeff was remarkably talented, knowledgeable and supportive. I had heard horror stories about the building process, but ours was smooth, peaceful and uneventful --all thanks to Jeff. Jeff was extremely responsive and made himself available day and night to answer questions, update us on progress and calm our nerves that all would be completed to our satisfaction. I came to learn that Jeff is a perfectionist. He would point out things that we wouldn't even notice. We have been living in our home since June. Jeff, Matt and team continue to support us with final touches to our beautiful home. I would highly recommend them as a builder if you are looking to build your dream home.

Matt Powers Custom Homes did an incredible job with our renovation! We needed a complete renovation of our 7,000 square foot home. This included new wood floors throughout, redesigned kitchen, resigned master bath, enlarged pantry, updated dining, formal, and family rooms, a new large attached and covered outdoor kitchen, and landscaping. Matt Powers’ team began with CAD design to help us see how everything would lay out and fit together. They moved through the renovation with the highest quality. They communicated throughout the process so there were no surprises. We did a walkthrough at the end of the renovation to ensure there were no issues or remaining open items. We loved our renovation so much that we’re now renovating our upstairs with Matt Powers Custom Homes.

Collaborating with Matt Powers Custom Homes proved to be a very positive experience amidst the challenges of constructing a home in 2022. Despite the fluctuating material prices and availability, as well as the unpredictable interest rates, Matt and his team managed to keep the project within budget and completion schedule. One of the most valuable aspects of the process was the thorough discussion of our expectations early on, allowing for a clear alignment with our budget. From the initial planning stages to the completion of the project, we were consistently updated on progress and felt well-informed throughout. Even now, nearly two years later, we maintain communication with the on-site project manager. Looking back, I wouldn't change a thing and only wish we had embarked on this journey sooner. For individuals seeking a trustworthy builder who is transparent, reliable, and delivers on commitments, I highly recommend Matt Powers and his team.

We were told by many how challenging and stressful building a custom home would be. As this was the first custom home we have built, we were concerned about the process. That is not the experience we had at all due to the team at Matt Powers Custom Homes. We enjoyed each step of the process and were amazed at the attention and quality to detail. We are so happy with our home, we probably will not move again. However, if we do, Matt Powers will be the one we call.

Matt was amazing to work with in building and designing the perfect generational home for my family and I! We are so glad we went with Matt in building our home. Him and his team were all very transparent and helpful throughout the entire process. For my family and I it was the first time we were building a fully custom house and Matt’s team made the process very easy and were very knowledgeable on different materials and helpful with the selections as well. We would definitely recommend Matt for your next home!

Working with Matt Powers is easy! Matt and his team are incredibly organized, thorough and responsive! Their high attention to detail result in beautiful, quality homes. They adhere to schedules and keep everyone in the loop on timelines so there are no last-minute requests for selections. As a designer, this is very important. Their budgets are realistic and their craftsmanship is top of the line! I recommend Matt Powers Custom Homes to anyone looking for a contractor for their dream home!

Dewey Hennessee was the project manager for our newly bought home through Laura Powers (who was excellent) after our home flooded in Harvey. Dewey was always professional sharing his expertise and knowledge. The Powers/Hennessee team hire reliable, quality workers. Being sensitive to the history of our former lost home and possessions, Dewey was compassionate and showed this through the high quality of work in our new home which he always checked with his high standards. He was responsive to our calls which meant a great deal to us and was respectful of our schedule. We also appreciated Matt Powers suggestion on painting the den white! They put us in touch with a professional decorator, Joani Scaff who was most helpful! They made this job as worry free as possible and we are grateful.

Matt Powers and his team build beautiful homes with all the right amenities. They pay attention to the little things and seem to give a lot of thought to how the home will be used by its residents on a day to day basis. Matt is enjoyable to work with and helped put us at ease as we made one of the most important decisions ever.

Thank you Matt for the excellent service provided by your company. I was told you guys were top-notch and that's exactly the kind of service I experienced! Dewey Hennessee came to our rescue recently when my Client and I needed a reputable builder's professional opinion. My Client was told that their house had no weather barrier and that it would be a $20K job. Dewey made himself available that same morning we were on the phone- I had never met him or Matt before. They were simply recommended to me. Really, it was a Godsend! Dewey provided us with a solution and his crew of workers, his professionalism, and best of all his time and kindness. Thank you and God bless!

Comment from Matt Powers Custom Homes & Renovations:

Jovita, Thank you so much for the kind words! Glad we were able to help. Look forward to working with you again!

Matt Powers Custom Homes built our 10,000+ home and we could not be any happier with the result. The project manager Jeff was always calm and responsive. The quality of the sub-contractors was excellent. The designer Bobby had superb taste and helped me immensely with design issues. The whole experience was smooth and easy. I would highly recommend Matt Powers Custom Homes.

It was an absolute pleasure working with Jeff Kowalski and Dewey Hennessee of Matt Powers Custom Homes in building my dream home. They were with me throughout the entire planning phase with the architect, choosing the perfect lot for building, and there for me everyday tending to every detail throughout the building phase. During all the decision-making process, they were there with me every step of the way helping choose appliances, plumbing, granite, tile, wood floors, fireplaces, lighting, hardware, windows, doors, swimming pool and landscape design, etc. at all these vendor locations. Their knowledge, experience, and advice was extremely helpful to me throughout this entire process. Their network of vendors and sub-contractors are all wonderful to work with and very professional. We are very impressed with the amazing workmanship, high quality, and great attention to detail. Throughout the project, they managed every detail with such efficiency and kept the experience pleasant and stress-free. Anytime I had a question or concern, they were quickly available by phone, text, or email. They were always respectful, patient with all my many questions, straightforward, and listened to all my ideas and preferences. They were always willing to explain in detail each step of the process and would work to make my requests and design ideas a reality. Their team is always professional, friendly, honest, and very reliable. They had such a great positive attitude throughout the entire project. It actually made the experience very enjoyable and Fun for me!! They continue to be available to me anytime. They go above and beyond to make sure their clients are completely satisfied. I know that we can continue to count on their help and expertise in the years to come. Their high standard of excellence helped create such a beautiful home for my family. I definitely got my perfect dream house and I highly recommend them!!!

It was an absolute pleasure working with Matt Powers and his team in building our dream home. Matt made sure the partnership and collaboration was outstanding throughout the entire process. Matt and his team even made the process fun; the way it should be. The guidance they provided consistently enabled us to arrive at the best solutions in what we were hoping to achieve in our new home. We are truly amazed at the final results. Admittedly, our expectations were very high going into this project and those expectations have, without a doubt, been exceeded. Matt and his team have demonstrated the perfect balance between ensuring a disciplined process that keeps things on track and maintaining a collaborative environment where there is a free exchange of ideas.

We have used Matt Powers Custom Homes & Renovations on extensive projects for three homes that we have owned in the Houston area. He and his team are true professionals. We have used them each time we have purchased a new home - they have done the walkthrough with us and helped us determine what work needed to be done to the new purchase. They managed every detail and took the stress out of everything! It is much easier hiring them to manage each project as compared to trying to find the various contractors needed for a project. We have been in great hands with them on all of our projects! Highly recommend!!

Thank you for the recommendation and the review. We appreciate you all and miss having you in The Woodlands. Matt

tboehme68

We chose Matt Powers due to their high quality and attention to detail, also the "true custom builder" feeling is intact in contrast to others self proclaimed custom builders. Matt himself was part of the planning and selection process, but we had throughout the whole building process (+1 year) the same project manager who actually remembered what we agreed at our weekly meetings and to sometimes our surprise even got them done before time. Our wish to build a transitional (borderline contemporary) house was no problem for MPCH and we believe we got the house of our dreams exactly like we envisioned from the drawing board to moving in. The fact that we are still on speaking terms with both builder and project manager is a testament to their honesty and true attention to the customer.

We enjoyed being your builder and creating your dream home. Relationships and communication is key in the process and we value you and our new friendship. Matt

yanamcfatter

When we began to think about building our dream home on the lot that we purchased in Bunker Hill we talked to several builders. We decided to hire Matt Powers to build our home because Matt Powers and Dewey Hennessy seemed to be the most professional, reliable and trustworthy of all the builders that we interviewed. Our home was built timely and with high quality materials and workmanship. Matt and Dewey have a network of sub contractors that perform high quality work at a reasonable price. Finally the most important reason that we would recommend Matt Powers to anyone looking to build a high quality custom home is that they 100% and completely stand behind their work and have gone beyond the warranty to insure that we are happy and that everything works properly. Working with Matt Powers took the stress out of building and made the experience enjoyable. We would be happy to discuss our experience of building with Matt Powers with anyone thinking of building a custom home.

Wow Yana thank you for the review and the photos. We do take pride in making the building process a fun life event! Please refer us to any of your friends looking for a builder, we would be honored. Matt

Our experience with Matt Powers and Dewey Hennessee has been exceptional.. They were very friendly, and quick to respond on any inquiry or concern which we had. We were particularly pleased with the way they coordinated with our designer, resulting in a beautiful, well constructed quality home. And we are not beginners! This is the 5th home we have had built.

tcargills

Using Matt Powers Custom Homes and Renovations was a great decision for us. We had had a bad experience in the past with a remodeling project, so we were a little nervous about this undertaking in the first place. Matt and his team immediately put us at ease and drew up a workable and affordable plan for us. We couldn't be more pleased with our remodeled master bathroom! Thank you Matt Powers Custom Homes & Renovations; it was a pleasure to work with such a dedicated and trustworthy team! We highly recommend them.

I have sold more of Matt Power's homes than any other builder and can say that each experience was a pleasure. The Power's team consists of talented and quality focussed artisans and professionals. The best confirmation of a builder is when clients become friends - that happens to Matt every time he builds a home.

My husband and I bought a Matt Powers home in December and we couldn't be more happy with it and the Matt Powers team. As time passes we constantly find ourselves saying how thoughtful and intelligent of a builder Matt Powers is. My husband and I looked for homes for months and happen to find this home based on a few construction pictures. Those pictures demonstrated quality that we hadn't seen in other homes and sure enough when we walked in it the first time, not only was it so beautiful and custom, but it was sturdy and built with so much thought and care. We continue to comment on this all of the time as we live in it. This very thoughtful design has led us to enjoy an energy efficiency in our home that we didn't know we would have. Our energy bills are significantly cheaper than what we paid in a home nearly 1/4 the size. Finally, working with Matt has been a pleasure because he is a genuinely kind person. The relationship continues well after buying a home. He makes himself available to questions and we have consulted him on other ideas which is a great thing because we love spending time with him! We could not recommend Matt Powers and his team more highly!
