Home Builders in Doylestown, PA

“These guys do great work. I will use them again and recommend them as well. Very personable and real easy to have in your home while improving how we live!”

“My experience with A&Z General Contracting has been phenomenal. They mean exactly what they say and ask all the right questions to get the desired results that I wanted. They move fast but efficiently. They are always on time and delivered excellent customer services skills. I will continue to utilize A&Z with any future work that I have for my home and recommend them to anyone who asks me about a general contractor.”

“We want to thank the Tilghman Builders for building us a wonderful deck. They always kept us in the loop, were available to answer our questions, and very helpful when deciding on the final design and deck materials. We want to give Tony Rossi a special thank you for putting all the finishing touches on the deck to make it perfect!”

“I have hired A&E Construction for both large and small projects multiple times over the past 8 years and without any hesitation, give them the highest recommendation possible. The owner of the company, Greg Fontaine, is experienced, knowledgeable, honest and reliable. Projects were always done on time and on budget and if for some reason, the schedule needs to change, Greg does an excellent job communicating the reasons. Before working with A&E, we hired many contractors over the years, and no one ever compared in terms of quality of work combined with reliability and trustworthiness. Another thing we've really appreciated about working with Greg is his ability to provide us with options and ideas if we needed to scale back on a project. Two of the larger projects Greg did for us were finishing our basement and building a poolhouse. Greg was very cognizant that we did not have an unlimited budget and worked with us to make sure we got the most for our money. Greg also does an excellent job hiring talented and reliable people that I am always comfortable having in my home. Additionally, they are very neat and always clean up after themselves at the end of each day. Lastly, and most importantly, Greg really cares about his customers and goes above and beyond what's expected to make sure they are 100% satisfied. I can't say enough good things about him and A&E!! If you hire them, you won't be disappointed.”

“Anthony (AF Contractors) has completed a number of home projects for me, most recently putting 3 new roofs on my large home. His pricing is fair and reasonable, and he remains true to his estimates. The crew showed up on time and worked overtime (at night) to complete the roofing project when rain was forecasted. Anthony is onsite at the start, and also reviews the work to ensure it is done to his standards and that the work site is cleaned up. I can't say enough about Anthony and his work, and I've referred him to several friends who have also hired him. He's my "go to" contractor for all my home needs. Hire him and you won't be disappointed!”

“Kenny and his team are not only very experienced builders, they are stewards of the environment. His team is perfect for any home owner looking for affordable, eco-friendly renovations. What I appreciate most about Kenny and his team is that they spend time educating their clients so that they can make informed decisions. Buckminster Green is not your average construction service. They are thoughtful, creative and most importantly, fun to work with. I highly recommend them to anyone looking to renovate, or add to their home in a earth friendly way.”

“UPDATE: I heard back from the installers and they were able to address and resolve almost all of the issues I listed below. I appreciate the effort they made. I really like my new kitchen now that all of the issues are resolved. ORIGINAL REVIEW: This review is for people choosing an installer for an IKEA kitchen. We decided not to do it ourselves and instead hire the installer that works with IKEA. In this case we got Doylestown Building and Remodeling Company. Initially I was very happy with their work and their main installer seems like an honest straightforward worker. There were a few problems, however. First, the installer, although experienced with other forms of remodeling and building, had very little IKEA installation experience. He frequently was not sure how something was supposed to be installed. This would have worried me less had I not noticed that he did not always read the IKEA manuals that came with the items to install. We were only his 3rd IKEA kitchen that he installed, even though there were other installers in the company who had plenty of experience. Then, due to issues with another worker, the installer did nearly all of the work alone, without help. Although many parts of the kitchen can be done with one person, some tasks really are two person jobs. In fact, three times I was forced to stop what I was doing (I work from home) to help him move an appliance or help with something that required more than one person, because he was on his own. One time after this happened I said, "Next time you should have someone come with you, because this is a two person job." Sure enough, the next time he showed up alone and I had to help him again. When the kitchen was finally finished, on the whole at first I was pretty happy with it. But after I while I noticed some problems that really should have been taken care of, and that I will either have to live with or find a more capable company perform. 1. A shim was left hanging out around 4 inches below a cabinet. This will have to be trimmed. It seems to me extremely unprofessional to leave something like this when finishing a job, but NOT SURPRISING since the business owner rushed the work through and the main installer was working on his own. 2. Because of the rush, absolutely no cleanup was done after the fact. I had to dispose of a large bag of construction waste, there was sawdust all over the kitchen floor, and found sawdust in most of the drawers and cabinets that was never removed. Oh and there was never any effort during the install to tidy up after either. They installers got sawdust all over the floor & some of our belongs in the adjoining room. 3. The toekick installation is really messy, it just looks amateurish. Any homeowner with a table saw could have made a toekick that looked as good or better than what they did. There are very visible gaps where the pieces meet. 4. Two drawers were chipped/scratched during install. Not large chips or scratches, but still *not* acceptable for the install of a *brand new* kitchen. 5. MOST DISTURBING OF ALL: we planned the kitchen with an IKEA associate, who specified all of the pieces that would be required for the install. One major piece, a large cover panel to be used for support of the kitchen counter, was never used. When I asked the installers for clarification on why this piece was left over, I received no reply. As far as I know, the kitchen counter *appears* stable but could just as easily fall apart. Based on how it's installed, it isn't possible to look behind the part that was installed to see how sturdy it actually is. Based on these issues, I sent an email to the project manager. After not receiving any reply for two days, I sent a followup email. After *another* 2 days the manager's boss sent me a noncommittal apology along with an offer to "refund" $35 as a "gesture" to cover "some of your costs of cleaning, etc.". No mention was made whatsoever of my other, more pressing concerns. In response I sent another reply, again outlining the complaints I had with the install, complaints more serious than having to clean up. Honestly I think the inability to clean up after the install is a bad sign; it shows a lack of pride over workmanship and is almost like leaving a project uncompleted. OH, and let's not mention that for some reason, even though we pretty meticulously planned all of the components we would need for the kitchen (and cross-checked inventory on delivery), we still ended up not having all of the right hardware installed where it needed to be, and the installer lost a necessary piece of hardware for one of the drawers that we will need to go to IKEA and replace ourselves. Honestly, if they had just put the smallest effort in addressing my real complaints instead of offering me a token gesture of $35, I probably would not be leaving this negative review. But it's been over a week with no response, and I would rather people be aware of these issues. Was this review …?”

“We had a complete remodel of the first two floors of the house - These guys are fantastic - they listened and worked with us on all our concerns”

“Brandon was very professional and knowledgeable. He worked with me to choose the most cost effective and best route for my projects while also giving me the highest quality work at the same time. Highly recommend!”

“We have used Monks several times. Our most recent project involved refinishing our floors and painting some inside of our house. These guys answer their phones, show up on time and give you a quote on their first visit. Then they started on time and finished on time. They weren't the cheapest way to go, but they were the only company I found that could handle the painting, floors and carpentry without subbing everything out. We felt it was worth the money to have one company running the entire project and we were right.”
