Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Thurmond

“We hired Gene Glaze because of his experience and expertise in ADA standards. (We are retired and planning to "age in place.) Turned out to be a great choice. Gene is the best contractor I have ever worked with. He is highly regarded by his subcontractors, and hires the best. His site supervisor and head carpenter, Jeff, is delightful to work with and an outstanding craftsman. We're more than a year out from our major remodel, and I have no complaints or concerns. His designs (three baths, back deck, bedroom updates, extensive electrical work and plumbing) were imaginative and highly functional. His landscaping crew did great work, as did the roofer, concrete mason installing a new pathway from driveway to front doors. Interior painting and exterior siding were executed professionally.”

“I am a Real Estate Broker and my wife and I also buy and rehab homes for resale and to keep in our rental portfolio. Cody and his crew have done several jobs for me personally and for clients of mine. They are great at what they do and I have always achieved nothing but the best and most professional results in each of our projects. Each project was on time, but more importantly on budget. When dealing with the tight budget flips and rentals require, we can not afford surprises. I do not hesitate to refer Cody to anyone looking for a quality job.”

“Brent and his father, Garland, built a new home for us in Mill House Place that was completed in 2012. From start to finish, they were easy to work with. They provided a realistic timeline and remained on track throughout the building process, were fair in pricing their work and never cut corners, always took time to talk with us about products that could used in building our home, and were very knowledgeable about every aspect of the construction process. An added bonus is that both Brent and Garland are accomplished craftsmen and expect the best from subcontractors. In fact, Brent is an amazing talent. He designed and built the library in our home and added numerous personal touches throughout. Our family and friends have been extremely impressed with the quality and creativity apparent in Brent's design and finish work--he far surpassed our expectations. Finally, both Brent and Garland are easy to talk to and have high ethical standards. They definitely are deserving of a 5 star rating--a very special company!”

“Topsider Homes earned our confidence in all aspects of its offerings: innovative design; soundness and efficacy of engineering; strength of the structure; quality of components; and, accessibility of service during construction. The construction blueprints, manuals and videos are clear and precise in every detail, which assures that builders, building inspectors and owners are provided all the information for project installation and inspections of the Topsider-provided prefabricated components and to assure effective tie-in of any necessary builder-provided components (such as decks, patios, entranceways and site preparation). Construction of any kind is always full of challenges as a consequence of the variability in the qualities of the builder and his subs. We spent months working with Topsider to locate a builder experienced in installing a Topsider or similar prefabricated home…but found that this was not necessary as the construction information provided by Topsider makes it possible for any competent builder and subs to properly erect the structure. Topsider people were always available and responsive to provide answers and solutions to construction questions and issues. Our contract was entered into in April 2016. The County Building Inspector issued his Certificate of Occupancy in March 2017. Since that time there have been no quality issues with Topsider materials or design. As regards design and engineering we are particularly pleased with the strength of the structure in dealing with frequent high winds and gusts at our mountain site…a consequence of all load bearing components being focused on the center steel beam which allows interior room design flexibility and utilization of ductless HVAC systems. We are particularly pleased that we included the optional Cupola. The R-39 hard insulation components make the home energy efficient and add strength and integrity of the overall structure. The space inside the pedestal accommodates and secures electric and water utilities. In our relatively cold climate it has been necessary to install electric heating “tapes” to water lines and drains extending from the pedestal, which is the responsibility of the builder, but which really should be noted in the blueprints and builder instructions. We are pleased with our Topsider home and recommend the company to others.”

“Sid and his crew re-worked our small cabin to give us a new master suite, kitchen, and pantry/laundry space. Faced with zoning limitations, Sid, working with our architect, gave us an elegant, livable space. He listened to our needs and wishes and used an incredible amount of imagination to re-think our current space, adding special touches that really make our home unique and beautiful. He worked under a tight deadline and we could not be more pleased with the quality of his work and the attitude he brought to this project”

“I requested A estimate from this company .They came out right away to measure for A new roof,then it took almost 2 mouths to get the estimate and it was over double what it would cost me to do it myself so I did not hire them.”

“The friendly folks who run the business are open to the customer's ideas and accommodate them whenever they are able. I drew a design for a gazebo/pavilion for our pond area. Bunce built it, delivered it and set it up on our property. It turned out beautifully. I also bought a small shed and have changed it through the years little by little. Now it gets so many kudos and has become useful as a bride's retreat. Bunce also built a wedding gazebo for our courtyard garden. Now we have 2 places to offer as a wedding or birthday party venue.”
