Loving our ne home! Everyone says that building a home is one of the most stressful things to go through. We didn’t think it was stressful as people had built it up to be. We have to “Thank” our general contractor, Chris for making is so much easier than expected. This was our first time building a house and we didn’t know what we didn’t know. Chris was terrific at guiding us through the process. From the initial decision of rebuilding over remodeling to helping us finding an architect. One of the biggest factors in making the build go so smooth was the communication with Chris. He kept us updated on what was happening and what was needed from us well in advance. Once the building began Chris worked consistently. After framing and the rafters went up, they noticed a window in our bedroom wasn’t centered with the tray ceiling. They called us to discuss and explain the situation which meant to move the window framing in order to center it in the room. I have looked at the window many times and been so thankful that they brought it to our attention so we were able to move it.
Throughout the entire build process, there was only a few days that they or a subcontractor weren’t working on the house. That says a lot to Chris’s ability to work with each subcontractor. The process went so well that they actually finished the project 6 weeks ahead of schedule. We are so happy with the finished result as well as the quality and care that they showed. The house turned out better than we could have ever imagined. If anyone is looking for a contractor, we would highly recommend the Lake Area Homes crew to do the job with car and pride.
