Ted and Jerry Ramm were very easy to work with and did a great job.  I had a million questions prior to and during construction and Ted was very patient with me.  We asked for a lot of modifications and upgrades to the model, mostly to accommodate our large family.  They were able to incorporate all of them beautifully and finished the house on time except for a 2 week delay due to extreme weather.  I thought some of the upgrades were a little pricey but in the end, it was all worth it.  We've lived here for 2 years now and still love our house.  Only significant problem  was a leaky master shower which caused ceiling damage on the floor below, but Jerry and his crew were very responsive and attentive to this - figured it out, fixed the leak and repaired the ceiling to perfection.  Several other homes in our neighborhood were also built by Ramm, including our neighbors' house - they wrote a letter praising Ramm and recommending them before we built our house, and we relied, in part, on that letter in deciding to go with Ramm.  Our realtor also had spoken very highly of them.

Purchased a new home from Ramm Construction in fall of 2010 after being highly recommend from many other Ramm homeowners as well as people in the Omaha construction industry. All warranty items were taken care of promptly and with exceptional customer service. Ted and Jerry Ramm know how to build a great home. We would recommend Ramm Construction without hesitation to any family looking to buy or build a new home.

This man said he could build a custom home, went through and he gave us a price. The price was missing many many things such as-  2 shower doors, a bathroom door, and extra insulation. Every time we went to check up there was at least thing wrong; this was once if not twice a week. All the closet shelving was the wrong size shelving and put in the wrong places. They did not match the outlets some was white others were cream. He criticized the way I was building my own him in a unprofessional manner. He lied about the quality of the paint, he said the paint would wipe clean and not show touch ups. I had another professional painter tell me that the paint he used would not wipe clean. You can see the touch ups in every room in my home. 

The dry waller cut 2 of 5 cads, so we only have 3 cads in the entire home.  Since we can see the paint touch up, so they hired the painter to repaint. He would only repaint some of the areas, he refused to repaint the entire wall. He was yelling at me and shaking refusing do the work he was hired to do. To make matters worse, he did not use painters tape. Now you can see paint on the top and of the every window, on the doors, and the side of the doors in the home. When he came to touch up the paint, he was so unprofessional. He did not use a drop cloth, and he splattered paint every where-on the trim, toilet, floors, and doors. He also dropped a hunk of red paint on brand new cream carpet. He rubbed it in before leaving, and didn't mention that he didn't spill the paint. The builder the tried to come out and clean the carpet, he couldn't clean it so he took a knife and tried to cut it out. We had to stop him.

They hired to someone else to remove the paint from some of the trim and to remove paint splatters. They would only pay him part of his salary, so he took another job. Now I am stuck with half the job done.

They installed faulty wiring, and it trips our circute breaker. In fact I lost power while reporting this issue.

The carpet we picked out was 10 cents cheaper per square foot, and look very nice. He tried to over charge us $1,200. His carpet people misquoted him, and he tried push the cost on us. We also put a locker area in the laundry. He tired to tell us a locker was a bench and 3 hooks instead of actual wood lockers. They also ordered the wrong bathroom faucets, and they did not come and clean the nails that were left in our yard.

He quoted a $5,000 appliance allowance. When to spend that it, he said sorry it is only worth $1,250. He was not familiar with building codes, so we suffered. We don't have plant ledge, and the shower doors. He tried charging us more for this, because he did not know about the code.

They also broke a fan blade upon installation in our master bedroom, and they wont replace it. They also did not install an HDMI Cable, so we had to make them do that. When we closed on our house, and it didn't have our stereo in it.

The kicker of the situation; We told the builder that we wanted our house blue, he told the developer that our home would be a neutral color. We did not know blue was not allowed in the subdivision. The builder deceived us and developer. He did not tell either of us information. This was because he knew that we would have not put a hole in the ground with him, if we were not allowed to have a blue home. That happened 10/13/11. He never disclosed this knowledge the entire time.

A big issue was that we closed in February, and they said they would send us sod when they started cutting it (March). Now it is August, and we still don't have sod, and inches of our dirt has washed away. Our sprinkler lines are visible through the crevasses in the yard. They still have yet to paint the exterior of our home.


He is unprofessional, does not honor his warranty, and does not complete his work. We have 30 day warranty issues outstanding that they have not completed. The structure in our home is fine, however the interior quality is very poor.
