Columbia, MO Home Extension Professionals

“What was done: Rip out old shower walls to studs, put in new tiled shower (assisted with design as well). Prep all interior walls for painting (skim coat, prime) and paint 7 rooms. Ran crown molding throughout most of house (about 240 feet). Why I chose Aarow Building and why I'll use them again: My mother has used Aarow Building for years and loved the work and the fact that she can trust the owner (Jake) and his crew to be fair in quality of work, pricing, etc. So when I bought my first home I called Jake to get a bid and found him to be competitively priced and very easy to work with. He was always prompt and helped point out stuff I hadn't thought about. For example, he helped design a custom shower with tiling that looks way better (and will look better for longer) than the pre-fab fiberglass kit I was originally thinking about (and the tiled shower was in the same price range as the cheaper looking shower kit). I liked that the owner worked alongside his crew for most of the project, although his crew seemed very knowledgeable as well. At any point they could explain why they were doing a particular part of the project a certain way and I got the sense that this is not a business that cuts corners. My mother is always able to trust that things were done the right way, and this was my experience as well. It's been a few months since they completed work and everything still looks great....I've seen no flaws in how anything was done at my home. Jake and the crew are very polite and professional and really seem to know what they're doing. And they worked hard to get the jobs done in a few days and with minimal disruption to my family. I will continue to hire Aarow building for all my remodeling and repair projects- this seems to be one of the rare companies that you can trust will do the job right and be fair in their pricing!”

“Kliethermes Homes redesigned and rebuilt my deck. All details of the project were explained and decided before the project was begun. The team took my ideas, presented me with options and designed the deck using top-notch materials and work, while sticking to the budget. The finished deck exceeded my expectations. I would rate the company as dependable, talented, and easy to work with.”

“I enjoyed working with Paulette. She is knowledgable and has great taste with whatever the design style you prefer. One project she helped designed for us, was a vacation rental home. She listened to every detail weI asked for and came back with a perfect lay out. She provided us with a detail list to get bids with that was very helpful. We love her enthusiasm with each project she works on.”

“We were very fortunate to find Brian Morgan as a residential architect in Columbia. Brian designed our new custom home from the ground up by piecing together ideas we had been holding on to for what our “dream home” would look like for years. He is extremely professional and was very careful and conscientious about designing a home with our taste and style in mind rather than imposing on us what he thought was appealing. With that said, he did guide us with suggestions and ideas on how we could best execute our dream home in the smartest and most efficient manner. There is not a square foot of wasted space in our home and now that we are living in it we can see Brian’s intuitive design coming to life. During the design process Brian was able to remember the tiniest details of how we wanted to have our home designed as well as features that we wanted to include. During the construction process he guided the contractors to ensure that nothing was forgotten. Having Brian present through the completion of construction was a tremendous relief for us because we are both very busy and Brian served as a point person on our behalf with the construction crew to resolve last minute questions and to ensure that our design was executed properly. Our home would not be what it is without Brian Morgan.”

“Doug has worked with us at Kliethermes Homes & Remodeling for over 10 years now and nearly everything you see on www.kliethermes.com has been created and designed by Doug. He takes his time to listen to the clients needs and works with them to create a space that excites them. Doug has been a tremendous asset to our team and to all the clients we have served.”

“Just purchased a home built by Pate-Jones Construction. Absolutely the best home-buying experience we have ever had! John Jones is so helpful and easy to work with. He went above and beyond to complete the changes we requested for our home in order to close on time. Leigh Pate, the office manager, was also awesome to work with! She answered any questions we had and kept everyone informed and on schedule! I would highly recommend everyone associated with Pate-Jones Construction!”

“I am a home builder that had the opportunity to work with Nick on a LEED certified home that I am building in Old Hawthorne. He is an expert in LEED and enery efficent green homes. It was a pleasure working with him and going through the pros and cons off some of the latest green building techinques. He is a wealth of knowledge.”

“Ed has assisted me with several remodeling and house addition projects. He is quick to identify a client's aesthetic, to establish their needs, and remains very responsive when developing solutions. He is very creative with no shortage of great ideas, and his ideas are unique, adding distinctiveness to the way a home looks and feels, inside and out. In addition to designing amazing interior spaces, he is equally as talented with landscape design. He backs up his great ideas with thorough research and planning, and his design plans are valued for their detail and precision by all the contractors I've worked with. I've been told by more than one contractor that Ed's ideas encourage builders to stretch, work beyond previous limitations, to create new and interesting elements in home design. Ed is a pleasure to work with. He has confidence in his ideas but maintains his humility, He does not get defensive when his ideas are challenged, rather he works diligently with clients to achieve a satisying outcome.”
