"My family experienced water and wind damage earlier this year. We had to be placed in a hotel. After reaching out to numerous companies, we chose Maynor construction. I am glad we did!! If it wasnâ t for Maynor and his staff, I wouldnâ t have made it. The process was long and depressing because of being away from home. However Maynor and his staff reassured me. They showed patience with me and worked hand and hand with my insurance company with getting my home repaired in a timely manner. Thank you Maynor! I truly feel like we are family!"

"I purchased a Big Deal for two hours of handyman labor for $59. It was easy to schedule, he arrived on time, listened to what I wanted done, and did the work quickly and well. He showed me photos on his iPad of work he had done in the past (although it also allowed me to see previous customers' names.) He asked me to sign a statement that I was satisfied with his service. Not long after, he emailed me a quote for the outdoor spigot replacement."

"They price he quoted, $800, was less than the actual cost by several thousand dollars. Took when week to complete job. Mike and Phil had a lot of conversations about the color of the paint. Always punctual. Communication between contractor and customer was very poor. He would forget what we spoke about. I was talking more to the painters to get the job done."

"HOWEVER, he found a company in OH that could create a textured brick and then found a company in northern IN who came and hand stained every brick to match our existing brick.  If you didn't know our home had damage, you wouldn't be able to tell.  They did a beautiful job.  The reno took longer than I thought it would, but they had to find the brick and I know that was a chore. Plus to get on the schedule of the brick painters. Great workers and great job.  .

"After receiving a few other estimates on a sunroom addition plus a screened in porch, we decided to go with Legacy Windows. Mark’s estimate was in the middle of the other estimates and he offered much more flexibility than the other companies we spoke to in terms of customization. He is a great salesman with previous marketing experience. We signed our contract on April 10th. We were told that Mark and his crew were finishing a room and would be able to start in 2-3 weeks with a timeframe of 6-8 weeks for completion of our room addition project. The budget and timeframe worked well for us, so we decided to add replacement windows for the rest of our house (11 windows total). Several weeks went by and our project had not yet started so we followed up with Mark. We were told that there were issues with his current project (did not pass inspection) and it would push our start date back due to the workmanship repairs. During this time period before any work began on our project we would communicate often with Mark to check on the status of our project. The really frustrating thing about working with Mark is his inability to fulfill commitments he would make to us in regards to project timing and when things would be done. Our primary communication with him was via text messages and time after time he would tell us, “we should be starting next week” or “we are going to be making up for lost time quickly” and time would pass and it just wouldn’t happen. Work on our project began when our existing windows were replaced in early June. The foundation for the expansion was finally started in late June and framing started in early July (roughly 3 months after signing the contract). The first crew completed the framing, hired the shingles out, installed some of the cedar siding, and installed one wall of windows. We were seeing decent progress after having such a long wait in the beginning, all the while the commitment issue just kept popping up. We would get a text saying something like, “going to be at the house tomorrow with some stone samples” and he wouldn’t show up. It was annoying, but progress was being made and we were happy with how the expansion was taking shape so we were willing to overlook it. Sometime toward the beginning of August (roughly 4 months after signing the contract), work just stopped. Again, when we would reach out to Mark asking about the status of our project we would be told, “I’ll have an action plan later this afternoon” or “we want to get everything we done we can this week” or “the crew will be there tomorrow and we will be working all week on your project trying to finish”. In the meantime, nothing would be done and we would repeat the process. This went on for over 3 weeks, during this time there was absolutely no work done. Large piles of construction trash and building materials sat in our yard during this time. A great deal of the usable wood began to warp and I am sure that ultimately materials had to be tossed from being left in the elements for so long. After a couple weeks I finally moved a significant portion of the usable wood up onto the deck so it would at least be partially protected. We found out that there was an issue with the electrical and Mark had decided to let Crew #1 go as they were not meeting his expectations, but it was not communicated to us until the end of the over 3 week period. A second crew then arrived who Mark said usually only did work for him on the south side of Indy (we live in Lebanon), but he wanted to get our project back on track. There seemed to be little to no communication between the crew and Mark on what they were supposed to work on so we had to explain to them what was in the contract to be completed. Crew #2 also started making good progress, they finished the cedar siding, got the rest of the windows installed in the sunroom as well as installing the sunroom ceiling. About this time, which was at the beginning of September we had a separate crew come out to do the drywall. Mark recommended them very highly. As it turned out, the drywall was not properly installed or insulated (in some walls there was no insulation), and ultimately it had to be taken down and redone by Crew #2. Crew #2 seemed to be doing a really good job and we were quite pleased with their progress and the quality of work they were doing for us. They were replaced by Crew #3 sometime in mid-September. We were never told why they were replaced, but Crew #3 was much closer to where we lived so I assume that had something to do with it. Much like when Crew #2 started, there seemed to be little communication between Crew #3 and Mark on what they were supposed to work on. So we again had to explain what was in the contract to be completed. All through the process, the commitment issues mentioned previously continued. We were not as happy with the quality of the work done by Crew #3 as we had been by Crew #2 (or even Crew #1), but they did finally complete for the project for us and after (3) failed attempts we finally received a pass from the building inspector on his final inspection. When Crew #3 decided they were finished they never came back, we communicated multiple times with Mark about the remaining punch list items to no avail and ultimately decided to finish most of the small punch list items ourselves instead of waiting any longer for them to finish (clean up, sanding / finishing drywall, etc.). We love the way the sunroom and covered porch area turned out. From contract signing until the end it took a little over six months, but in Mark’s defense he did agree to let us add a brand new window in the dining room of our house to tie everything together at no cost to us as appreciation for our patience. There are things that we liked about Mark’s company and things we didn’t, I have tried to summarize each category as follows: Positives • Price seemed reasonable • It is truly a custom build, no problem with changes we had at any point • Love the way it turned out, looks amazing • Mark seemed to genuinely care about the quality of the product he was delivering to us (he replaced the cedar shakes that had been installed by Crew #1 because he wasn’t happy with the quality Negatives • Our project seldom felt like it was a priority, part of the reason it took so long was because they were over committed on other projects • Commitment Issues (addressed previously) • Construction Trash left in our yard for months • We cleaned up inside more than they did, I understand drywall work is messy. They never swept up any of the dust and they didn’t clean up any of the clumps of dried drywall mud all over the floor. • We finished some of the minor punch list items, just to be done."

"R &R Complete Restoration did an outstanding job and for a very fair price.  Their workers were professional, clean, prompt and concise. They handled some very tricky situations with a positive "can do" attitude and got the job done on time and in quote.  I have since recommended this company to several clients and friends. All of them have relayed back to me their complete satisfaction.

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

To ensure safety during home building, require your contractor to install perimeter fencing around the site. Pendleton features clay-heavy soils that make open foundation excavations dangerous fall hazards for children and pets. For renovations in older homes, hire certified professionals to handle lead safely. Because IN is a high radon state, incorporate radon-resistant construction practices into your new build to protect your family's health.

Helpful?

Managing expansive clay soils and proper drainage design are critical for successful home building in Pendleton. These soils expand when wet and contract when dry, making engineered footings and proper soil compaction essential. Strict compliance with state energy codes and correct vapor barrier placement prevent moisture damage. Hire experienced local professionals who understand IN climate detailing to ensure your home withstands regional freeze-thaw cycles.

Helpful?

The humid continental climate of Pendleton significantly impacts home building schedules and material requirements. Winter construction requires cold-weather concrete protection, while spring thaws create muddy conditions and groundwater risks. Summer heat demands special concrete curing protocols. To handle the IN weather, your home requires a 36-inch frost depth for footings, correct vapor barrier placement, and a roof designed for a 20-pound ground snow load.

Helpful?

A complete permit history with passed inspections at every stage proves your home building project meets safety standards. Your contractor must secure a Certificate of Occupancy to confirm the structure passed final inspection. Look for proper drainage grading sloping away from the foundation to prevent standing water. Additionally, footings in Pendleton must reach a 36-inch frost depth to comply with IN state codes and ensure structural stability.

Helpful?

During home building, you will make critical decisions before construction even begins. Start by verifying zoning classifications, subdivision rules, and floodplain requirements near Fall Creek. You will also select your foundation type and HVAC system design based on specific IN climate demands. Finally, choose your materials and finishes carefully, as mid-project change orders require amended permits and trigger additional inspections in Pendleton.
