Get matched with top subcontractors in Bryant, AR

"Bret was excellent to work with in building our home. He suggested ideas during the build process and always kept us in the loop with decisions. Bret is meticulous about his work and takes pride in the finished home. Bret builds a quality home for a reasonable price. I would highly recommend Bret for a construction project."

"The price was fair and they were able to start almost immediately. Asked the installer multiple times to cover his work area as to not scratch our new wood floors. Of course, he scratched the floors in multiple places. Attempted to contact the owner and he was non responsive on the issue. The unit was installed in September, come October and need to turn the heat on for the first time and there was loud clanging and metal noises. Called to have someone from this company service the unit on Friday afternoon and was told that “it isn’t that cold that it would be Monday before we could look at it” (it was 40 degrees and this is a BRAND NEW unit). Brought up that had we went with a larger company they would send someone out and they do not work after hours or weekends and was basically told you get what you pay for. I would not use this company again in the future. Will probably regret making this post when we need service again in the future."

"The job was perfect from design to completion.  You cannot see any nails or seams in the wood.  Outstanding job!  In fact, we are going to have him do another deck asap.

"He was very professional and very easy to work with. He explained everything he would have to do. I would give him the highest rating"

"Freewalt Builders did our extensive remodeling project and did a generally excellent job.  The demolition involved taking down and hauling off a suspended concrete patio, fireplace and gutting the den, laundry area, kitchen and a bathroom all down to the studs.  They pulled all that off, especially breaking up and hauling off that massive suspended concrete patio creatively and inexpensively.  Many structural repairs were needed due to leakage around the old fireplace, etc.  Nothing fazed them.  
We had drawn floor plans, deck plans and electrical/gas/water plans for the rebuild.  There were some challenges, like the spot where we were going to need a very long laminated beam to support the upstairs as we were pulling out a 16? run of the outside wall.  They handled it all easily.  Art and co. made some good suggestions for tweaks in a few cases, including getting the maximum square footage gain out of the effort.  He brought in good craftsmen for the custom cabinetry (excellent job by John Robertson) and counters (another excellent job by John Baker ? Top That LLC).  Good tile and finishing work, and good painting.  Appliance installations went well.  We put on a multi-level deck around the new expanded areas and decided to go with cedar on all of the visible surfaces and pressure-treated pine for the support posts and underpinnings.  Art found a good cedar supplier which helped with the cost quite a bit.  He might have gone a little over the top dressing up the deck woodwork, but I have to say it?s pretty.  All of the things they built, from the footing for the new sunroom on up to the roof, and everything in between, are built to last.  You could park an Abrams tank on that deck!
Things to watch out for: We are in Little Rock.  Art and his crew and other subcontractors are all from Hot Springs Village and Hot Springs.  Since we ended up doing this over the winter (mid-Nov ?13 to mid-May ?14) there were many weather-related delays as they simply could not get here from there.  So plan your project accordingly.  I think we were Art?s first venture into Little Rock, so we had to help quite a bit with orienting him to local suppliers.  But he has a lot of experience with that now!  Finally, they got a bit too much going on during about the middle of the project, making for inconsistent crew and supervisor from one day to the next, and some low-results days.  So we would tell one person (or Art) a particular, then find it being done differently, and have to re-do.  That problem got better before the end of the project, though.  Between that and the uncooperative winter weather, it took longer than it ought to have.  Which can translate to more $.  I think things might have gone more smoothly if the same senior person had been on site week in and week out, as much as possible.  
All in all, we are very pleased with the results!
