We love doing work ourselves, but this was far and above our capacity for time and expertise. It was our first work with a general contractor and we were especially happy. It was nice to have a dedicated lead carpenter / project manager to entrust with our home while we were way. They worked with us and communicated to drive the project completion, but also to our liking.
The only knock would be that to make sure you are clear if you are working with an architect of any additional things you might want to include in a proposal with Terra Firma to make sure it isn't glossed over. We managed most of our project, but it is easy to look at the nice drawings and write-up from the architect, even when we made changes post drawings. A few things that happened in conversations didn't get recorded, but they were resolved. We will work with them again.
They are very good communicators and we feel felt and still feel a high level of trust in them. The project was very expensive but we did not feel taken advantage of. Instead, we felt that we got full value out of the relationship.
Terra Firma helped us get the project going, including advice on hiring an architect; worked creatively to find solutions to design issues; and explained all of our choices to us well.
The construction process was actually pleasant. Adam was always available to explain what was happening, and the disruption to our normal lives was never more than the minimum that goes with a project of this sort.
And, of course, the final product has been wonderful. The construction is first-rate . . . . Our only regret is that the house almost looks shoddy compared to our garage!
I would hire Terra Firma again in a heartbeat if I had it to do over again.
