Gander Builders
New & Custom Home Builders in Ford Heights
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 22, 2013
“Gander Builders was an exceptional choice for our custom home. Steve Lecas was extremely generous with his time during lot selection and the design process. During construction, Steve was incredibly responsive, oversaw every detail, inspired and encouraged creative ideas, and was always positve; he never cracked under the pressure we put on him. Steve's wife, Susan, was especially helpful in filtering for us the abundance of design choices and selections that go into a custom home. We could not have devoted the time to the selection and design process without Susan's tireless assistance and artistic input. The result of Gander Builders' work: a home that meets our needs and warms our hearts. Steve and Sue really created a work of art for us to live in, unique to us.”

Putman Builders
New & Custom Home Builders in Ford Heights
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 7, 2019
“We started looking at builders to build our home in the neighborhood we were moving to. We are very happy we met Putman Builders. They worked with us while we were out of state then they had to deal with us on a daily basis when we moved into town while our house was being built. They were very patient with all of our questions, concerns, etc... Putman gave us a lot of options and even made changes from the orginal layouts they offered. We were extremely happy with all Putman employees and vendors/contractors. We have a Putman orginal and all their homes get customized to make sure everyone's homes are the same. They will work to make sure you are satisfied with the home you purchase or build! We would recommend them to anyone asking for a great builder.”
Ross Builders, Inc.
New & Custom Home Builders in Ford Heights
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 17, 2013
“Nine years ago, we purchased a Ross spec home in the beginning stages of construction. Not only was Craig wonderful to work with as he helped us navigate the finish choices, he was always honest and straight forward about all of the steps, prices and timelines. He finished the home of our dreams on time and exactly where he said the dollars would be. Over the years, Craig has remained a friend and valuable resource. We still love our home and still receive compliments. Friends and neighbors compliment us about the beautiful aesthetics, and service providers who come in for maintenance remark about how well the house is built and the high quality of our structure and systems. We've heard horror stories about building in Hinsdale but our experience with Craig was fantastic.”

Janet has skillfully guided us through projects that range from selecting fixtures, paint colors, flooring, bathroom tile, furniture, window treatments, and accessories, to working as our general contractor to reconfigure room layouts and oversee jobs like crown, kitchen cabinet, and light fixture installation, and painting the entire first level of our home. A natural born leader and innovator, Janet has confidently and efficiently led all of our projects and at the same time has never been above working with us on the nitty gritty details. She works diligently to understand and cater to your personal style and preferences. The Walker Group's subcontractors have always been top-notch, dependable, and kind. Janet and The Walker Group have been instrumental in helping us rebuild our dream home. I highly recommend them and won't hesitate to call on them for future projects.”
