M-R Builder Inc

It was great. We found Mike and his team through our real estate agent soon after moving to a lake home on Lake Columbia. The home we purchased was built about 10 years earlier by another local custom home builder. We tried to line up the work with the original builder, but he proved to be very non-responsive. Ultimately, we ended up with Mike and his crew. They were diligent in terms of creating the same look and feel in their work as that found in the rest of the house. They even took pictures of the door panels and trim so it could be accurate throughout their remodel. The guys on the crew were fabulous...meticulous in their work and really nice guys. If and when we make some more changes to the house, they will get the call.

As far as the repair goes, a grade for price would not be applicable. But for the pricing of the house construction, they had a very satisfactory system. M-R Builder sent all the work out for bid and was able to get very good costs from the sub-contractors which saved us money. We paid M-R Builder the cost of the sub-contracting work(i.e. framing, drywall, plumbing, etc.) plus an additional 15% that covered their overhead and insurance, supervision and profit. This system seemed to us to be fair and gave us control over our costs. Although their first two attempts to fix the problem were not successful, I still give them high marks for quality on the repair (A) and a (A) for the construction of our house. The owner was very responsive when I dropped off pictures of the water stains this Spring. Given that their construction business has suffered along with the rest of the builders in Michigan and that it has been 8 years since the house was completed, it is very commendable that the owner promptly got in contact with me to say that they would correct the problem as soon as the weather permitted them to work on the house. All the workers, supervisors and owners are very professional, courteous, friendly and provide explanations on what they are doing or what is scheduled to be done. Each day the work area was cleaned up.
