Erwin Forrest Builders LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Jim Thorpe
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsOctober 21, 2014
“We hired Erwin Forrest Builders in 2012 to build our ~5000 sq foot custom home. Keith and all of his sub-contractors did an excellent job from start to finish. We began from scratch with Keith and he always steered us in the right direction from the initial design phase to layout, location and completion. His open communication and unfettered access to the project through all phases put my wife and I at ease every step of the way. Keith never cut corners and always did the right thing to ensure a quality build and quality project. Upgrade prices were more than fair and the final products exceed my expectations. Keith continues to check in to ensure we are happy with the final product and we look forward to maintaining that relationship for years to come. We wholeheartedly and without reservation recommend Erwin Forrest Builders for your custom home project.”

“From finding a lot to build on, to coming up with over 20 basic homes, to customizing it to our needs, these guys are beyond belief. Once we closed on the land, and came up with the final plans, had the land surveyed to breaking ground, today is 3 months. They are about 70% complete. They really know their stuff.”

Turnberry Construction Group
New & Custom Home Builders in Jim Thorpe
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJune 13, 2014
“Turnberry Custom Homes is amazing. Kevin is absolutely great to work with and steps through each part of the project with you making sure you are comfortable along the way. He's incredibly knowledgeable about the processes and products that are being put into your project and/or home. Our project involved clearing part of a heavily wooded lot that we plan to build on in the very near future (Turnberry will be building the home as well) and it was done quickly, professionally, and under budget! We've worked with several builders and contractors over the years and Turnberry is by far the best.”

Their knowledge of new green technologies and experience in building makes them a great choice for anyone building a new home or adding an addition.

The Martin Corporation
New & Custom Home Builders in Jim Thorpe
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsDecember 16, 2013
“We contracted with Martin Homes to complete a renovation of an existing sun room, a replacement/expansion deck and a new screened-in porch. From start to finish Joe Martin monitored the job, the subs and the work on a daily basis. Each day he checked in with the homeowner (me) to ensure that I knew who would be going to the house the following day and what work would be done. This is the 6th major construction project I have completed on various properties over the past 27 years and Martin Homes was the most professional contractor with whom I have done business. His staff is helpful, his carpenters (especially Bruce) were neat and cleaned up each day so that we could live in the home during the ongoing construction. Change orders were documented in writing and signed off on or sent via email with confirmation from me before he would proceed. Joe Martin is a stellar professional in an industry that has a bad and often well-deserved reputation for its lack of ethical, qualified construction professionals. In short, we were not disappointed in our choice of contractor and would hire him for future jobs.”
