Featured Reviews for Jefferson County, AL Home Builders

Bluestone Building, LLC
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Sep 8, 2014
“1500 Sq. Foot remodel of our home in 2008. Bluestone was great to work with and did an amazing job. They were able to keep us on budget and finish the job in a timely and on-schedule manner. I always recommend Bluestone to friends who are looking for reliable builders.”
Building Concepts LLC
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Jul 19, 2013
“I used them for a very small job because of my budget and was treated just like I was spending a million dollars. Very professional, on time, and conscientious of the quality of work done. Electrical and hanging light fixtures, but they do it all.”
BRBC LLC / Bradford Residential Building, LLC
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Feb 1, 2017
“David, Chris and Craig did an exceptional job building a house that my family will enjoy for a very long time. Their craftsmanship was second to none, they were very professional and took pride in the jobsite as well as making sure their subs completed work that satisfied BRBC's very high standard of craftsmanship. If I ever built again in the future they would be the only builder I would call.”
Signature Homes
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Jan 19, 2014
“I have used this company twice for the building of 2 residents. I have built 3 times prior and they are hands above making the experience enjoyable, professional with great attention to your worries and handling any issues. Great subs and organized outfit.”
Scotch Homes & Land Development
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Jan 25, 2017
“I contacted Scotch Homes when I wanted to build a large home and barn on my land. I had heard nightmares about working with contractors but this was a fantastic experience. Wayne Scotch met me on the land and worked very hard to build exactly the home I wanted. He worked straight through until it was finished and finished within my budget. The home is beautiful and Scotch Homes did an excellent job.”
Harmony Custom Homes & Additions, Inc.
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Jun 14, 2013
“During the month of August 2012, I contacted Harmony Remodeling, Inc. for an estimate/consultation to do some renovations on our property primarily on the outside of my house. We needed repairs to a basement leaking every time it rained. The following projects were completed to my satisfaction: replace french drain in crawlspace, re-grade front yard, build rock retaining wall, tie in and re-route downspouts, remove and replace lower section of driveway, replace garage doors, remove gutters and replace with larger gutters, and waterproof entire basement wall. I was very pleased with the respectful workers and the outstanding workmanship.”
Curtis White Companies
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Nov 11, 2013
“I contracted Curtis White Companies to build a home plan that I had found on the internet. Joe and Katie were very easy to work with -- they explained everything that had to be done and gave realistic expectations of how the process would work. Once construction began, they were very good keeping me updated on progress and aware of what steps needed to be taken. They were always good about hitting specific target dates (despite a very rainy summer to work in) and kept me in the know on the things I needed to have to them. In the end, the final product is the home I was hoping for and I couldn't be happier. I would recommend Joe and Katie to anyone looking to build a house.”
Iron City Builders
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Nov 26, 2018
“I called Iron City Builders to price replacement of rotted masonite around my chimney and patch eaves. They responded same day and set an appointment to view the work. They provided a written estimate and discussed options for the repairs the next day. Once approved they completed the work in one day. They did a quality job, very timely and responsive, great price, and left everything tidy and neat. In today's competitive market it's hard to find someone who shows up on schedule and provides good value and quality work. Iron City Builders did a great job for me.”
Michael Jacobson Real Estate and Construction
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Sep 2, 2014
“Michael Jacobson helped me with a complicated set of problems when I purchased an older home. To move in to a livable dwelling, a lot was required to get the very old wet basement into good shape, as well as significant upgrades and repairs to existing plumbing and air systems. This involved a variety of workers across several trades, skills, and professions including masonry, landscaping, plumbing, and heating/air. Michael knew all the right people to do good work for affordable prices. He followed up when necessary on a long list of tasks. I recommend Michael as a contractor for tough jobs involving many different elements and a tight budget.”
King Built Company LLC
Jefferson County, AL Home Builders
Apr 19, 2015
“Jeremy was in charge of the building of the home of our dreams. Of course, building any home will involve frustrations, but Jeremy always remained calm, and worked as if he was building his own home. He demanded excellence from all the subs, and was not afraid to tell them to tear something down and start over if he thought the quality wasn't up to his standards. I think what impressed us the most about Jeremy King, besides his unbelievable work ethic, was his knowledge of just about every thing related to building a house. If he didn't already know how to build/adjust/fix something, he would spend hours figuring it out. He went above and beyond our expectations as a supervisor, and we are absolutely thrilled with our house.”
