Bella Vista Company Construction Svcs, LP

I had an amazing experience working with Bella Vista on my large home renovation project in Dallas, TX. Rob and Whitney were incredible throughout the entire design process—professional, creative, and attentive to every detail. They truly brought my vision to life and made the daunting task of planning such a big project feel seamless. I highly recommend Bella Vista to anyone looking for top-notch architectural design services!

I worked with Bella Vista on two additions to my home -- the first was an extension to my original 1950's home and the second was a detached garage/studio. Both projects were extensive, expanding my existing home. I am very impressed and happy with the finished result for both of these projects. The design, creativity, workmanship, quality and professionalism of their team is outstanding. They are creative, and able to transform an older structure to a modern and up to date home that looks like it was always meant to be that way. They were very flexible with my requests and able to develop adaptive and important solutions at the beginning and during each project. I highly recommend Bella Vista for your design project,, whether small or a complete build.

Working with BellaVista was smooth, easy, and professional. We'll use them for our next house upgrade, and strongly recommend them for yours. Both during the initial design process and during the build-out they provided useful recommendations regarding options to our requested addition to our home. Build-out project management was excellent - they kept us informed of what was going on, when, and what to expect next. They General Contractor managed all the subcontractors, vendors, and the code inspection process, removing the load from us. Both we and our friends love the new space and how well it integrates with our existing house.

Terrible company. From the top down. They underbid your project, expect you to source and deliver to them single material used, charge you extra for things they forgot in the bidding. Take your money, and not deliver what they say they will deliver. They are incompetent. Do not hire.

unknown

1) Workmanship quality - First Class, yes it was!
2)Projection management - terrible. I had to supervise this job myself. Incompetent and arrogant group of folks. Think they are doing you a favor. They forget that you are paying them for a service.
3) Pay close attention to the contract you sign, make sure everything you requested is included. I would have your lawyer attend the signing. Do not use their "recommended" locals banks etc. Get your own. Do your own homework.
4) Beware of their "change requests" - they will use this as a way to justify how overdue their timeline is. Since "you" requested the change, the job "must" take longer to finish. 
5) They do not keep their word and they are always chasing the next job. I think their sales pitch is also underhanded. You end up spending a lot more money than you intend to. Very crafty with their sales pitch and advertising, do not get sucked in. 
6)Project ran way over time and they lost numerous items we purchased. Never got the feeling they cared that they were putting you out.
7) Nickel and dime you for everything they forgot. e.g. We had gutters before they started work - did not put them back up, acted as if we never had gutters and told us it would be a "change request"  to have gutters put up.
8) They do not work on weekends and do not pay their subs to do so. You may think this is trivial, but if they do not show up for several days during the week, you can easily lose a whole week of work.
9) Many days with no inclement weather and no one showed up to work.
10) ****When the subs worked, they knocked so much out very quickly and their work was very good. I really want to stress that. The actual work was very well done. The house looks fantastic, but I would never work with that company again.
11) If you see their sign up in the neighborhood, knock on the door and speak to the owners yourself.  Do not let them take you to sites themselves.
