"Nyboer builders did a great job with this project.  They took a bit longer than expected to complete the project,  but only a couple of weeks past the estimate and weather did play a part for some of the delay.  The quality of the work was excellent.  The roofing crew were all very friendly and very responsive to questions or small requests.    The job supervisor was especially professional and courteous.   I would highly recommend Nyboer builders to anyone.  I hope to use them again in the future for some remodeling work.

"The person they sent out to provide the estimate was very knowledgeable and professional.  They were highly rated on Angies List, but had some negative reviews on other forums.  I was willing to overlook that based on the positive reviews from Angies List and their competitive price.  We were ready to get on their calendar and then they informed me that they wanted 50% down before starting the work.  That seemed pretty steep and my husband was not willing to put any money down since we were planning to supply the paint.  The Administrative person was willing to bring the upfront payment down to 30%, but we decided to go another way.  We don't agree with paying for a service before any work is done.  Otherwise, we would have booked the work with them."

"This was a tough job that was accomplished very easily due to experience (40+ years) and vast knowledge of materials. I called 20 people in town and all turned down the job because of their comfort level with cutting into corian eg fracturing and further damages. None of that happened whatsoever here with these experienced professionals. Thanks for delivering on the promises! Will use for more jobs around in the house in the future."

The average build timeline for a home is between six and 12 months, with timelines pushing toward the upper end of that range if you’re creating a custom design or need a lot of land preparation before getting started.
