Precision Builders
Design-Build Contractors & Firms in Cedar Rapids
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsSeptember 5, 2017
“We recently had Precision Builders design and construct our new home. It was an easy decision after visiting one of their Parade Homes. We couldn't be happier with the results. Arron, who is very detailed oriented, was so easy to work with. From the very start he listened to our ideas to make sure everything we wanted was incorporated into the plan. If we wanted to make any changes he was very open to this. Arron's entire crew is very professional and friendly. Kelly, is also part of the Precision Builders team. She is absolutely fantastic and couldn't be easier to work with. She gave us so much help in the selection process, but always making sure to listen to our ideas. Kelly has a great eye for design and color. Arron, Kelly, and the entire team made the home building process very enjoyable and stress free. Thanks to Precision Builders we now have an amazing and beautiful custom home."”
