Best home builders near Freeland, MD

"The whole experience was wonderful! Calvin Lee came to our home to measure the space and provided exactly what we asked for as our remodel design. Jason and his crew worked very hard to complete our kitchen as quickly as possible while doing excellent work. Christian always answered question and addressed concerns as the process went on. Jason followed up each evening to let us know what would happen next. They arrived on time each day worked full days. We got all new cabinets, flooring, countertops, lighting and paint. We couldn’t be happier with our new beautiful kitchen!"

"Debbie, the AC&R salesperson, was very knowledgeable and confident. They were the 2nd quote I got for work and came in even lower than I expected (which gave me pause as a low bid is a red flag). But true to her word, they did the work professionally (mostly...see below) and promptly. While I had another company do the energy audit for the Pepco rebate, AC&R took over the work, did the blown fiberglass one day and the spray foam the next.



For the blown fiberglass in the attics above our additions, they added spray foam (from a can) around any gaps per the contract and foam board baffles at the soffits. The installer noted that all our soffits were blocked and the batting insulation was too wide for the rafter channels, so he leveled it out as best he could to ensure an even coating of blown insulation. At the end, he sealed up the gaps between the attic and our to-be-finished upstairs (cape cod style, so all one room).



For the spray foam insulation, the team came in the next day, and I had to be out of the house due to fumes. I did come back around noon as they expected to be done well before then. They didn't know I came in and I went to the back of the house to watch TV on my work break. The one annoyance was during their cleanup, one of the installers came down into our kitchen and then saw me. He said he was looking for a vacuum cleaner to clean the stairs. I told him don't worry about the carpet as it was getting pulled up, but this was the one piece of unprofessionalism I noted above. Contractors should NEVER use the homeowner's property; they should bring their own tools, including vacuums!



While the spray foam can get very messy, they kept the splatter mostly contained to inside the crawlspace, not the finished flooring. However, I was surprised that they didn't tape off the outlet covers or light switched. since the particles are so small, we're going to have to replace the switches/receptacles at our cost. Also, there was a storm door screen that wasn't covered and now needs cleaned. Basically, I think they should have taken more care in covering the very few items we left upstairs and the outlets/switches.



They didn't spray around the window frames (large gaps where window weights used to be) because the open cell foam would expand too much. If I wasn't there, I think they would have just left, but it was clear in our contract discussions they needed to insulate those spaces too. They used a few cans of "Good Stuff" equivalent, but didn't fill in the gaps entirely. It did the job well enough, but it's a ding against them as I expected more preparation.



Lastly, I thought that AC&R would walk me through all the scheduling and final "test out" (for the Pepco rebate), but I had to contact them and schedule with someone different each time. They were always prompt, but I expect the experts to know to do this for/with me rather than expect me to know the process. I go through it once in a lifetime while they do it weekly.



While the end of the review sounds more negative than positive, I would definitely recommend AC&R out to others as they're priced right, they have been in business for over a century, and like any contractor, you just need to follow up to be sure everything is done to your satisfaction.

"Not only did Aaron (carpenter) of Home Pro Roofing do exceptional work on the many different projects around my house that I contracted for, but he came up with innovative solutions to a couple of projects that I was told by other contractors could not be fixed. I was very impressed by Aaron's resourcefulness and creative approaches to fixing what other professionals said could not be fixed, and he performed the fixes inexpensively. Additionally, Aaron constructed from scratch a beautiful and quality gate to my backyard that was very reasonably priced compared to quotes I received from a couple of professional gate builders. All the work performed was done with quality and pride and even the cleanup was thorough. Finally, not only was the original estimate from Home Pro for the various projects very reasonable, but they came in on budget (i.e., stuck with their original quote). I will be using Home Pro again."

"Rich approached the estimate more like an engineer than a salesman, which gave me the confidence to move forward with Coastal. Though they are not cheap, they know what they're doing. The lead carpenter Tim was able to work through several problems we uncovered along the way. Once they started they worked continuously and finished on time. I would recommend them if your job is complicated, requires custom carpentry, or if you're using quality materials that need special care."

Our home search took approximately 6 months.  The houses that were on the market did not meet our needs or were out of our price range/ desired neighborhoods.  David never gave up and continued to work with us until we found the perfect new home, which happened to be new construction.  David was very helpful through the process of working with the builder and ensuring a 30 day closing so we could be in our home before Christmas.  We strongly recommend David.

"We had Flood Crew out to help when our hot water heater broke. Bill and his crew were great! From the water remediation to installing a whole new floor in the basement, the crew took care of every step. These are some of the hardest working guys I’ve ever seen! And they don’t play around, they get the job done. I recommend them to anyone needing this type of work done. Thanks a million, Bill & crew! ???"

"Sean was friendly, he did the garage door tuning when i lost power, i had used lever to manually open the door, i noticed when i tried to close the garage door , door was touching the pully housing, i was able to close it with little push he tightened all the screws, greased the rollers, i guess that aligned the door properly, door started closing , he showed me one of the springs was more wornout than the other, suggested to replace both before the wornout one breaks, his price was $140 per spring, when i showed him cheaper deals in Angies, and actual price of the springs for less than $50 on the web, i thought he Kind of upset, but balanced him in a while, he told me that they replace with better quality springs and lost longer, he offered me 10% discount, since he was already there, asked him to replace the springs, not sur i ended up spending more, $252 itinitially i was upset, i knew the door used to flush mount, he also checked my garage door motor, tried with his circuitary board, tried adjusting the presets to ensure flush mount took a while for him to allign the door flush to the ground, i offered him the stuckup insulation i had for my door to ensure flush mount, it did the trick, he said he will try this next time for his clients he suugested that i might need a new motor
