Austin Signature Homes

It is with extreme pleasure that we write this review for Austin Signature Homes. Austin Signature Homes helped us build our forever dream home not just a beautiful house. From the first meeting that we had with Craig, we were confident that he was a knowledgeable and trustworthy professional who could help us build the quality house we wanted within our budget. We came to our first meeting with an architectural plan that we had already created. He advised us and walked us through the process in order to make slight changes to stay within budget. We do recommend meeting with him before having an architectural plan, if possible, as he would have given us clearer guidance in the process. Throughout the whole process we were kept informed, felt that there was total transparency, and we could discuss all issues to make informed decisions with his guidance. Joanne kept impeccable notes on all meetings and used her long-standing relationships with vendors and contractors to advocate for us. Her wealth of knowledge and experience helped us make every detail of our house perfect. Scott kept all contractors on schedule and true to their promises. He was quick to contact contractors about start dates, deadlines and quality. Both Joanne and Scott came to the house regularly to check on the progress and catch any mistakes before they became bigger issues. This team balances and complements each other perfectly to create a seamless front. They are not only amazing builders but have become part of our family. Their professionalism put us at ease during what can normally be a very stressful time. Their high ethical standards and ability to advocate for us made a very large project manageable, and even enjoyable. Their attention to detail and true passion for building is evident in every inch of our home. We are so grateful that we met and hired Austin Signature Homes.

We hired Craig and his team to build our new home in Cherry Hills. After interviewing multiple builders, we felt that Craig and his team would give us the service we wanted throughout the 2 year project. Craig provided us with a budget and timeline that was more than reasonable to build what we wanted. Due to our own choices, we spent more money than Craig's budget. When you start adding elevated structural basement slabs, custom doors, t/g stained soffits, custom staircases, stone walls throughout the interior, Sub Zero/Wolf vs Thermador appliances, slab backsplashes and a totally separate pool cabana. Early on Craig knew I was gonna blow up his budget and as a homeowner I knew it would have been impossible for anyone to foresee the extras I was willing to spend money on. We found that Craig and his team have a very big black book of trades they work with. Which is awesome when it comes to competitive pricing on trades. They are also able to explain to you when it might be better to spend a little extra dollars to get a larger subcontractor to finish something faster (like foundations and framing)(we highly recommend Mike Bushee Construction for the framing). This is the type of communication you need from a builder. We were very pleased with the suppliers he works with: JM Kitchen & Bath (Julie), Specialty Appliance, Smalley and Co, Rio Grande, Colorado Tile, Miters Touch (Billy), Granite and Marble Designs (Stephanie) and I'm sure a ton more I'm forgetting throughout the process. Throughout the entire process Craig and the main superintendent for our project (Heidi) dealt with everything (include me, the picky homeowner). Their attention to detail is awesome and if there was something we saw as homeowners that didn't look right, they would correct it or explain why it was done a certain way. This is the type of personal attention you want when building a custom house. My recommendation of Craig and his team to anyone is high. You need a builder that understands what you're trying to accomplish and has the vision, expertise and experience to get it done.

Craig and team, I wanted to thank you for taking on our new construction build in transition. We pinch ourselves daily and just could not be happier with every aspect of the house. Were there hick ups? A few, but that is to be expected in a custom home build. No question, we made the right decision partnering with Austin Signature Homes. I know I pushed back and challenged you and your team a bit but I do feel you had our best design and financial interest at hand throughout the build and that was appreciated. Continued success in 2019!

When we finally decided to build our dream home in Denver, we knew we were going to give Craig Austin a call. We had seen his work in the area over the years and we knew he delivered a quality custom home. From start to finish, he is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to all aspects of the home building process - permitting, working with our architect to finalize plans, paying attention to details during the construction process etc. He was able to provide a realistic budget and timeline so we felt on target during the project. His entire team was great to work with and we really have no complaints other than we don't get to build with them again!

Austin Signature Homes built us our dream custom home here in Denver, Colorado. From the beginning Craig was a pleasure to work with, and made every effort to make our requests a reality. While the timeline ran a bit beyond our originally scheduled move-in date, Craig and his team continually pushed to get us moved in as soon as possible. He was always in communication with us about the state of the project and did a good job of keeping us informed of any/all delays. His team's attention to detail and quality of crafstmanship was great and I would highly recommend them.

Austin Signature Homes is a long-standing family business with a successful formula for estimating and building custom homes. They have built a low maintenance, energy-efficient home that is fun to entertain in with numerous interesting and quality details. This is the only developer that you need for a full building scrape and urban infill. They have deep relationships with suppliers, vendors, and trades who work tirelessly to bring all of your ideas and elements together. We benefited from 50 years of supplier relationships to receive the best pricing and service from the suppliers, always negotiating an even better deal on our selections. We had access to an award winning architect who quickly provided solutions, designs, and ensured its functionality. The project manager kept us fully informed of pricing and schedule along the way and there were no surprises, just pleasant outcomes. We had ample time and support to make decisions and keep the project on schedule. The team worked together to quickly address every question and concern. The project supervisor was on-site daily to facilitate across all of the contractors, ensure daily progress, and protect the property. We felt like the only client and top priority throughout the entire project and afterwards. Austin lived up to every expectation and were patient, flexible, and always available. They were advocates for us through every phase from architecture and permitting through financing and interior design. The schedule and budget were managed so efficiently that we were able to build more square footage, finishing, and options than initially planned. The Austin team are fabulous people and a great company. We love the house and our neighbors were pleased with the process and outcome.

We had Austin Signature Homes build our home in the Observatory Park area, Craig and his team did an amazing job for us. We were able to come in just under the original budget and also within the timeframe we requested. Building a custom home is a long and difficult process, it seems like you are making decisions every day, Craig and his team did fantastic job helping us narrow our choices but also accepted some of the things we really wanted. They provided sage advice to us and in most cases their guidance really helped us get what we wanted but also at a price point that kept the project in budget. Austin has a large group of sub-contractors most of them have been working with Craig and his team for many years, the quality in almost all cases was outstanding and the few times a sub did not provide the time-line or quality requested Austin stepped in to correct the issues for us. If you are looking for a builder that will build you your dream home, but also be aware of the budget and the timeline Austin is the builder for you. We have a truly wonderful home, that we will enjoy for many years to come, we can’t thank the Austin Signature Home’s team for all their hard work in delivering our DREAM Home!

Everyone knows how difficult it is to find a reputable general contractor, with this in mind, look no further. Austin Signature Homes is knowledgeable, professional, and reliable and at the same time manages to keep the clients happy. We have had the pleasure of collaborating on a high-end custom home in Platt Park and I couldn't be more thrilled on how beautiful the home is turning out.

I am an architect with 20 years of residential design experience and owner of JPB Architects. I have had the opportunity of working with Craig Austin, Austin Signature Homes, on a number on new residences. From the beginning of the projects his advice and input are extremely helpful. He is able to review plans and guide the homeowner client to a well designed home that is highly functional and cost efficient. His building is to the highest standard. Austin Signature Homes are professional, high quality builders.

I felt fortunate to connect with Austin Signature Homes. After my mother passed & we sold her home; I needed a remodel at my Studio- gallery.I heard about them from the folks that were renovating mom's home. They were supportive of my desires, met the budget & were very knowledgable. They opened up my space to a beautiful new arena for my "utopia" as an Artist. I also enjoyed working with Joanne: their mom & original owner with my design requests.

One of the best custom builders in the business. Craig's attention to detail and consideration to the needs of his customers and contractors are what set him apart. Cannot wait to work with Austin Signature Homes again!

We hired Austin Signature to do our home addition which was to add 450 sq. feet to our kitchen and master bedroom and a 550 sq. foot attached garage. For 6 straight months we had someone at our house every day, which is tough in today's tight construction labor market. We are extremely pleased with how our project came out and all the hand holding along the way from Craig, Joanne, and Scott. Craig provided updates on the progress both physically and financially and Scott provided the more day to day updates as to scheduling of subcontractors. Joanne was extremely helpful in guiding us in the overwhelming decisions for choosing finishes. Ultimately we were so close to our projected budget we were able to add bells and whistles to our project that really provided us with our true dream home. We love our new house and would highly recommend Craig's team!
