Featured Reviews for Fairfax, VA Home Builders

Cumberland Custom Homes

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

March 8, 2016

“We have known and been associated with Ray Geier and Cumberland Custom Homes for over 20 years now. They are currently finishing the third house we have asked them to build. Obviously, we are very pleased with their work. Ray helped us plan our layout, create the architectural design, select materials and achieve the energy efficiency we were seeking. His skills and knowledge of the building process have led to what we feel is a very successful project. He has been most helpful in guiding us through the many decisions and compromises necessary to get what we want at a price we can afford. Above all, he is honest and listens and responds to his clients. We highly recommend Cumberland.”

“Van Metre Homes is an amazing company. Their home designs are fantastic! I was able to find a functional floor plan built around my lifestyle! I would recommend them to anyone in the market for a new home - or anyone looking for inspiration on fresh new interior designs!”

Craftsman Construction

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

June 24, 2012

“Craftsman Construction provided us with a building experience that was easy and worry free. Jerry was very professional, honest and trustworthy. Whenever a problem became apparent within our project, he thoughtfully resolved the issue. He was patient with us when we decided to make an aesthetic changes, even after the specified work had been completed. But most importantly, Craftsman's quality is what keeps us coming back to Jerry. We will build another house with Craftsman when it is time to downsize. Timothy and Amy Nojaim I would like to continue my review of Craftsman Construction. It has now been 8 years since Jerry has built our home. We have temporarily moved overseas. We have continued using Jerry and Craftsman Construction to manage the upkeep and occasional repairs to our wonderful house, while we have been away. He continues to be courteous and kind to our tenants. He is always fair with his pricing. He has truly become a family friend. Thanks, Jerr!”

Gulick Group, Inc.

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

April 5, 2016

“From start to finish, the team at Gulick Group exceeded every expectation and made the commonly stressful home-building experience incredibly manageable. The sales process was friendly, transparent, and respectful. The design and selections process was extremely easy and was actually quite fun. Construction was a breeze (literally!), happening faster than we could have ever imagined. The architects and engineers worked with us to capture every idea and tried to make them a reality, delivering on almost all of them in the end. There seemed to be no major hiccups, the contractors were all top notch professionals, and the final inspection produced not much more than a few paint touch ups. All in all, a phenomenal experience and the best quality design and construction we've seen. As we told the team at Gulick, the home they built for us is one of a kind... a true masterpiece.”

Joy Design + Build

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

February 21, 2019

“We had the pleasure of building with Joy and were delighted with both the process and our finished home! We know so many people that were stressed during their custom build that we almost didn't consider it, but with the Joy team it was so enjoyable. We would build with Joy again in a heartbeat!”

Brush Arbor Home Construction

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

January 30, 2014

“Brush Arbor owner Jonathan Smith built our home for a competitive price and did an excellent, high quality job. This is especially significant because ours is a complex, highly customized home. Not only were we very happy at the conclusion of the project, but we remain so because our home has stood the test of time. In addition, Jonathan was honest and professional in all of our dealings--most importantly, when he said he would do something or agreed to certain terms, he would always follow through. In fact, Jonathan occasionally checks in with us to answer a question we might have or to ensure that we continue to remain happy with our home. Thank you, Brush Arbor, for being integral to helping us make our dreams come true.”

BlueStar Builders & Remodeling

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

December 17, 2020

“Reinaldo did an AMAZING job for our basement renovation. We had the floors pulled up due to the finding of Asbestos below the existing carpet, so everything had to go. Reinaldo and his team came in, replaced a pine wall with an up-to-code fire-rated drywall, insulated everything, replaced the floors, and painted everything. His attention to detail really shows, he is very meticulous with his work, and it shows with the final end result. His prices were fair, he is very communicative, making sure everything was done to our satisfaction. 10/10 would definitely work with him again! -Val and Marty”

He was very flexible and accommodated our design customizations. He uses high quality materials and hires great employees and contractors. The whole process went smoothly and our project was finished on time. We couldn’t be happier with our house!”

Asta Homes

Fairfax, VA Home Builders

November 8, 2019

“"We were looking to build a luxurious, high-quality, custom home in Great Falls, VA. After selecting our site and creating architectural plans, we began a detailed and competitive bidding process to find the right builder. After evaluating 4 different proposals, we finally settled on Asta Homes and we couldn’t be happier with our choice. Mr. Tariq and Mr. Asad were able to use their extensive knowledge of building a custom home and structural engineering to bring our vision for our dream home come to life. Their attention to detail, flexibility throughout the process, and ability to work closely with our designer made the process smooth and enjoyable. However what really makes this duo stand apart is their reliability, sincerity, onsite presence and active involvement. Our beautiful home would not have been possible without these two and we highly recommend them."”
