New & Custom Home Builders Near Mandan

“We want to express our gratitude and appreciation for the care you took building our custom home to meet our needs as we age, giving us the convenience, accessibility, and livability we want with enough space to enjoy and entertain friends and family. After many seasons scrutinizing the Parade of Homes, we selected contractors we felt were 1) solid builders 2) who would work with us in a true custom design (not simply cut and paste previous plans), and 3) who was honest and trustworthy. After selecting several, we visited with each. It was surprisingly easy to eliminate them, one by one, until we had only one who met all our parameters--you! You took a simple sketch and some imaginary ideas we had and, working off our bare-bones budget, worked up a basic plan. Your patience in dealing with our changes and additions was truly remarkable because we made many! You were so pleasant and agreeable, wanting us to have exactly what we wanted; you redesigned…and refined…and reflected…and refined, all the while keeping our budget in mind. Just as plans were solidifying, a major health issue brought everything to a halt for an indefinite period. You received this news with compassion and concern—without any pressure to proceed with building. You offered some alternatives that might keep our dreams alive, allowing us the opportunity to proceed, one step at a time, and halting construction at various stages if necessary. We were grateful. Your patience, understanding and adaptability were evident. We got underway, completing one segment at a time, pausing when necessary. With each advancement, you first inquired if we were ready to proceed. When a decision needed to be made, your first consideration was if I was feeling well enough. Your compassion was truly appreciated. Your organization was impressive, especially when you couldn’t count on construction proceeding at a normal pace, having to juggle projects. Your attention to detail was amazing—you knew if something was the slightest bit off. Your integrity is undeniable and your standards are high-- both are apparent to everyone. Your subcontractors were courteous and accommodating, some exceptionally so. Your accounting method was totally transparent and you were devoted to keeping us on budget! Still, you were flexible with changes, offering suggestions as we went along. You were there to advise us at every level on choices we needed to make. As the house was near completion, we decided to add a deck. You willingly agreed; all was well until a delay in some materials created a time squeeze. You put in some long days and weekends—even doing the job yourself--to meet our date of completion! Even after the house was closed, you were kind enough to make some simple but time consuming changes I decided I must have. You got the changes made--further evidence of your principles! We appreciate everything you did for us. We have the utmost confidence in the soundness of our home, and look forward to spending many happy years in it. We know that if we ever have a concern about the house, you will be there for us. You were an acquaintance when we started—now we consider you a friend!”

“My wife and I had a great experience with Plain View. When we first engaged them, they came to our build site, which was already established, for an interview. From that, they were able to create a design that visually "fit" within the existing site and buildings. They worked hand in hand with our builder, which kept us from being the go-between. They were responsive to changes and were straight forward with how the whole process would work.”
