We had a custom home built by Solitude last year. The project was poorly supervised and the filthiest job site in the entire community with worker's trash everywhere. We caught more mistakes during construction than we can count. The pot filler was mounted just under the hood (way too high!), random back splashes installed on one side of the sinks but not on others, unfinished trim, mismatching grout on stone pillars, and water under the home which we discovered just prior to closing and builder claimed it was unforeseen but now a year later almost everyone is suffering with this issue and it cost us $16,000 to fix! The construction quality was so bad our ceiling fan in the patio simply fell off! (It was secured only with finishing nails per the real contractor who repaired this). We have fought to have our buckling and lifting LVF replaced but have been met with empty promises that it would be replaced but both builder and their vendor refuses any responsibility for this. They are experts at finger pointing. Run do not walk from this builder. I have print outs of every message and convo with this builder so trust me when I say I am not exagerating.

Solitude builds a great home! My wife and I were impressed by small details that were not forgotten. After living in this home for almost 2 years, we find it to be energy efficient and as comfortable as day one, even more so. To us, service after the sale was important. Cody and his team went the distance to be sure we enjoy our home for years to come. In a time where houses are going up everywhere and corners cut, it's important to make the right decision when looking for a new home. Highly recommend Solitude Homes!

What a great experience! Solitude made it easy every step of the way! Parker our Supervisor was fantastic to work with. He kept us informed and communicated with us constantly. Any time we had questions he got right back to us. The entire team made it an easy process along the way. Building from another state seemed daunting but with Solitude, you have access to the entire team. They map things out so the process is seamless. Jared was a big help in the beginning of the process until he handed off to the next person up. Once Parker took over we were never left guessing. He made any change we asked for and follow up with us along the way. Parker went the extra mile all of the time. We worked with one of their landscaping contractors, MilTek and they were amazing as well. If you build with Solitude ask for MilTek when you get to the landscaping. Since moving in we have had people stop to see our home and our landscaping because Solitude made sure we received the best from everyone and have a beautiful home inside and out.

Color-Time Painting has been painting in the Valley for the past 15 years. Working with Cody at Solitude Homes for the past two years has been one of the best builders I have worked with. His integrityy and workmanship is by far one of the best. His Supervisors are very knowledgeable and easy to work with. The office staff is willing to go above and beyond to help answer any questions I might have.

We chose Solitude Homes to build our house because of their reputation for building absolutely stunning quality homes. The service, excellence and care put forth by Cody and his team have made the building of our dream house a truly rewarding experience. Cody was extremely easy to work with, and always had many unique and creative ideas to make our house one of a kind. His attention to detail, superior craftsmanship and hands-on approach are what sets him apart from other builders in the area. Our house was completed on time and the process from beginning to end was flawless. If you are in the market to build a house we would highly recommend Solitude Homes. They not only met our expectations, they exceeded them. Thank you Cody and Solitude Homes team!

Where do I start. Cody has really changed the course of the building process, he has changed the way you think about building. He has made it so easy to build your dream home from first meeting, listening to your needs and wants and then coming up with a plan that is your final dream home. He makes sure the client has no surprises in the end on price, quality, and process. He has a great staff that help every step of the way from design decisions to final walk thru . When picking a builder you will not be disappointing to make that call and interview Cody, i can promise he will impress you from the jump. Make that call and set that meeting .. you wont regret it.

Cody and his team at Solitude Homes did an amazing job building our custom home for us. In 2016, our family relocated to the Boise area and while looking for real estate could not find anything that met some of the specific needs of our family so decided to build. Cody worked with us from step one helping us to find a suitable lot and working directly with his architect to design a home that would be suitable to all of our needs. He has a team of people in place that work with you every step of the way to help you design and choose finishes for the home so that it is truly your own. His building team is extremely professional, clean, and responsive to any concerns that come up throughout the process. Cody prides himself on making the experience an enjoyable one for the homeowner and recognizes that each home build will encounter its own set of unique circumstances that calls for flexibility within the building/contracting process. We are extremely pleased with the quality, construction, and aesthetics of our new house. Thank you Cody, Blake and all of the Solitude Homes' team for creating our dream home.

Comment from Solitude Homes:
I have loved working with all my clients especially you two. I have to say your home turned out amazing!! And I am so grateful you trusted us with your dream home.
Solitude Homes built our home in Eagle Idaho. Cody oversaw the entire project from design to completion. The project was done on time and within budget. We are very happy with the house and the work done by Cody and his crew.
Cody and his project manager were very pleasant to work with and extremely professional. If we were to build another house we would certainly consider using Solitude Homes.

Solitude provides a top-quality custom build that is among the best in the valley. The attention to detail and custom work really sets them apart compared to other builders that just rush to finish the build so that they can move to the next job. Cody Weight is a high-character person and is great to work with.

We looked at several different builders before choosing to work with Cody at Solitude Homes. Simply put - we absolutely made the right decision! Cody and his team were great to work with in the planning phase and were completely courteous and professional throughout the entire process. A good friend was having all kinds of problems with his builder and after comparing notes on how my project was going - he ended up firing his builder and switching over to Solitude Homes as well. I give my strongest recommendation to Solitude Homes for their honesty, integrity, professionalism; quality of construction, and even the exceptional sub-contractors that they work with. We love our home and have no intention of moving anytime soon, but if we ever do build again, we will not hesitate to give Solitude a call.

We couldn't be happier with Cody and his team at Solitude Homes. After looking at a number of pre-built homes that weren't quite what we wanted, we decided to build. We asked our real estate agent to get us in touch with a few builders that had a floor plan similar to what we were looking for, and after meeting Cody and sharing our plans with him, we immediately knew Solitude Homes was the right fit. Cody communicated clear expectations in that initial meeting, and stayed true to his word all the way through the build process. We were told that building a home can be a stressful experience, but because of Cody and his team's clear communication with us while the home was being built, we never experienced that stress. Even more impressive to us, was that the house was finished on time, and at budget.

I was moving from Alaska so had to do most of the planning over the phone and internet. I told them what I needed and my budget and they came up with new house plan.
I love my house, it's beautiful. The quality of work and the professionalism of all the contractors was wonderful.
The house was done ahead of schedule. Cody is great to work with, I would recommend Solitude Homes to everyone!

We began our experience with Cody initally by visiting his open homes. These Parade of home models clearly reflected his design advantages and care for detail. We are out of State buyers and have enjoyed every step of the pocess including finance recommendations. We highly recommend Solitiude Homes if you consider quality in your planning.

Solitude's team has been exceptional in the building of our home.
Cody has built a team that I have enjoyed working with during the building of our home. My wife and I viewed one of Solitude's parade homes Steve and Jackie were key in arranging a sit down meeting with Cody. This is our third home we have been able to participate in the planning of the home but this was by far the biggest undertaking my wife and I have experienced. We had our special requests and ideas we wanted incorporated into Cody's house plan and he has exceeded our expectations and the house is being completed on schedule. From Blake the foreman to Tricia and Clifton who helped us with interiors and cabinets they have all been great resources when making tough choices.
I would highly recommend Cody, In a project this size their will always be bumps in the process, Cody stepped to the plate each time so that a solution could be reached.

Solitude Homes builds a beautiful house and has innovative floor plans. We loved Cody's 2016 Spring Parade Home and he worked with us to build a similar home tailor-made to our interests. We were able to add subtle features like a courtyard with his flexible style. His laid back style was at times a challenge for my interest in precise specifications, but we met in the middle and he held true to his word. His site superintendent, Blake, is a great part of their success.

From my first meeting with Cody through the completion of my new home, I felt that Cody was a genuinely nice person. As the project progressed, I also found he does quality work. He always responded promptly to any concerns or questions I had. The people he had me work with to pick out the flooring, cabinets, counter-tops, etc were so helpful and his allowances were very generous. He actually added some very nice upgrades above and beyond those. I would recommend him to any of my friends in need of a wonderful builder.

We are currently building a house with Solitude and the experience has been fantastic. Really appreciate the time that Cody, Blake and all that have worked on our job have given us. While our house is not yet completed, the process, attention to detail, and professionalism so far has been second to none. I do not hesitate to recommend Solitude Homes and if I am ever in the situation where I want to build another house, Solitude would be the first I would call. I will update this review with a few photos once everything is completed.

Before Cody had his own company, he was the foreman for the builder who built our house. We have since followed his work each year the the parade of homes, where he receives numerous awards.
Cody (Solitude Homes) is committed to quality. They also remain up to date on trends and techniques which keeps them in the forefront of the marketplace.
You can expect open and frequent communication, fair and transparent pricing, and an overall great experience.
In short, Solitude Homes is trying to build a legacy of quality by building quality homes. You won't go wrong here.

I have nothing but high reviews for Solitude Homes! Their homes are well designed, well built, and are an asset to our neighborhoods. The builder, Cody, is very professional. He is hard working, smart, and organized. He provides a smooth and pleasant experience for his buyers. His team of subcontractors do superior work. He builds an array of homes and each are beautiful and special!

Solitude Homes built our home in 2010. Cody was very professional and friendly throughout the entire project. We were pleased with the assistance designing a house to meet both our needs and our budget. The quality of workmanship and products was excellent. His contractors were efficient, and diligent about keeping quality up and extra costs down. Our home was completed in a very timely manner, and we are very happy with it after more than 3 years. We don't plan on leaving for several years, but should we find ourselves in a position to have another home built, they would definitely be managing the project.

I hired Solitude Homes to build my house. As a first time buyer/builder, I had a great experience. Cody was great to work with. He helped me use an existing floor plan and change it to meet my needs. I really enjoyed being able to pick out all of the materials for my house. The designer was very helpful. I would have liked to do a walk through with the electrician as well as pick out my lighting fixtures a little earlier. My house was finished pretty much on schedule and within budget. I felt like Cody was as excited as I was about my house. He was very helpful in customizing my plan and keeping it wthin the budget I had decicided on. My house turned out beautifully and I love coming home every day. I would definitely recommend Solitude Homes and if I ever build again, I will hire them again.
