Description of Work: Gerry fixed some badly rotten logs in my log home. I can't say enough about the quality of Gerry's work, his professionalism, punctuality, communication skills and everything else one looks for in an Expert. I will definitely use Gerry in the future. (I have not received the bill yet, but I'm sure the price will be lower than what this fine job is worth to me.)

We had spent 9 months planning our retirement home based totally on false figures given to us by the Ward home agent. Apparently, he felt that he could "bully" us into the higher price once we had put so much time into it. Equally disturbing was the owner of Ward log homes who denied any responsibility. I did not feel if we ran into problems while building the home there was any assurance that he would make it right and stand by his product. Beware of this company!
Description of Work: We contacted the agent to discuss building a log home on our property. He showed us several homes Ward had built and quoted us prices on those homes. When we committed a deposit and began planning our new home it turned out that the prices we had been quoted were $90,000 less than the actual building prices and that the home we were planning was $80,000 over our stated budget. We contacted the owner of Ward log homes and we're told that the agent did not work for them (even though we had gotten his name off the Ward Cedar log home web site) and that the company was not responsible for the misrepresentation and our $500 deposit. After much time and effort we were refunded our deposit.

Perfectly. Any construction project encounters problems, and we resolved them easily with Jerry's help. We would build again with him in a heartbeat.
Description of Work: Please see our detailed commentary on this builder in Angie's List -- we can't recommend Jerry Axelsen more highly -- a consummate craftsman and a perfectionist who does his own quality control. He's also a delight to work with and a real "value-adding" guy. Jerry also has a rare sense of design -- a big plus when working on a major project like ours (large lakefront log home and gues house/garage).

The best possible experience building a home. Jerry is a good communicator, a superlative craftsman, and is that rarest of birds -- a builder with a real eye for both design and practicality. He understands what works and what doesn't in a very challenging climate -- Western Maine. Jerry effortlessly navigated all the regulations and permits needed to build waterfront homes here. Our high-end custom project (approx. 7,000 sf), which included many unusual design features, came in right on budget, and Jerry kept us regularly informed of costs throughout. This was the first time I had ever seen a builder do his own punch list, and complete it; Jerry is a real perfectionist, and his own toughest critic. His recommendations for subs (HVAC, masonry, tiling, plumbing, etc.), and his coordination of their work, were uniformly excellent. Our beautiful home is a testament to his experience and craftsmanship. Jerry has given us prompt follow-up and complete satisfaction with the few, small "teething problems" that we've experienced since moving in. We would definitely make sure we could work with Jerry again if we ever decided to undertake another construction project.
Description of Work: Planning, permitting and construction of year-round lakefront cedar log home, from site prep through interior completion; management of all subs; follow-up service
