It is beautiful and went just as we planned. Mac was absolutely the best. He was always there to answer question, help with the selections that went into making this beautiful renovation, and was a very good friend throughout the whole process. I can’t say enough good things about Mac! Because of him we were completely satisfied with the finished product and very happy with our home.

The remodel was almost a total remodel that included moving plumbing and some electrical work. The staff was always on time and very professional. Despite some setbacks, mostly wrong items sent and defective paint (Murphy’s Law), the team preservered until it was done correctly and I was happy. They were also very good about not damaging my wood floors leading to the work site and repainted areas that were nicked when carrying construction equipment. They also had my entire condo cleaned upon completion because of dust from the construction. Although it took longer then anticipated, the wait was well worth it.

The team at KM Builders is outstanding. Because we live out of town, they keep us updated daily with texts and photos. Questions and concerns are answered promptly and we are pleased with their workmanship. Without a doubt, I would recommend them again.

I can't speak highly enough for the work done by KM, particularly by Mac McDonald & Mike Garcia. They spent a lot of time finding out what we really wanted during the design process, & gave us many options & suggestions that we hadn't even considered. The building process itself was flawless! Mike & his team were able to get permits in a timely manor, & the work was completed faster than we expected. We were out of the country during much of the building phase, & Mike messaged us daily with the progress made. If there were issues, he let us know right away. We could make our own decisions, but based on our experiences with him we usually went with his suggestions. We were never disappointed, & we were grateful for his thoroughness, attention to detail, & experience. We would, without a doubt, use KM again if we want to do another major project in our house.

What can I say about Mike but that he did an outstanding job. He supervised the job site and corrected problems quickly before they became an issue. He is happy to see you but very Professional when dealing with clients and his team members. Mike responded quickly when called and handled each situation as soon as was possible. Even when we had a major issue Mike was easy to work with.

This is the sixth remodeling project that KM Builders has done for us over the past 20 years. Needless to say, we are very happy with their work and trust them completely with our home. For this latest project, Mike Garcia was the project manager. Mike has worked on many of our previous remodeling projects so we were familiar with his excellent carpentry skills and exemplary work ethic and we have always enjoyed working with him. This time, however, was the first time for us to have Mike as the project manager on a remodel. We found him so knowledgeable and helpful! Mike checked on workers daily, took care of delays, issues and "surprises" (and there are always surprises!) and helped to keep us informed about what was happening on the job. He used his knowledge and genuine caring to resolve issues and we so appreciated his demeanor. We are glad that Mike is in a management position and hope to work with him again. Our kitchen was officially finished yesterday and it is beautiful! We are so pleased with all the Professionals at KM Builders. From Kieth, General Manage, Mac & Bonnie, Design Consultants, Chad, back-up project manager, Louis, Painters, all the field workers; Rob, JD., Ray, Daryl, Derek, Erasmo, JPL Plumbing and especially, Mike Garcia, Project Manager, Thank you for another job well done!

We love how our home was transformed. KM Builders took the time to listen to our thoughts and ideas to help us design a better than we ever imagined new kitchen! Their process made our project run much smoother than expected. They made sure we were always informed with daily communication from our project manager (Mike Garcia) as to the work to be performed every day. Their attention to detail during the planning process helped them have everything needed for our project before they began construction, which decreased the actual construction time. We were impressed with the KM employees, all of whom were polite, courteous and cared about our project. We would definitely recommend using KM Builders to all of our friends and family.

KM Builders added an second story to our first home. Everyone always comments that it looks like it was originally built that way! Eric and all the design team did an incredible job designing it to our very specific requests! Our project manager Mike did a great job informing my family of the progress. The construction staff was always courtious and very knowledgable! I cannot recommend KM Builders more! Keith, the owner, and the Project Manager's are never more than a text away when I had a concern or question. Keith is a fantastic manager and the company really really reflects his passion! Even thought the construction process can be difficult ( as much as they try to keep dust out, there will be some dust lol it's pretty impossible not to have dust) they really try to make it as painless as possible! We love them so much that we are already in the works for building a mother-in-law suite on our newest home with this company!

The concrete pour was terrible, I give it a D-.  They did not put a drip ledge on approach and now every time it rains all the garage doors leak water inside. The garage floor has huge dips in it and looks bad, plus it doesn't drain and holds water. I painted it to cover it up and it just brought it out more.

The work on the exterior was Ok, they installed Hardy Blank and their subs did a good job, I give them a C on this work. The paint job was good, a solid B. The framing and construction subs, did a good job.

Besides the concrete, I have 3 other big problems with KM's work. 

1.The Portico/breezeway where it ties into the house leaks. I give him a D- on this work.

They used 4x6 treated and covered them with hardy blank, it looks cheap and in the future, I plan on wrapping them with cedar. The biggest problem is the breezeway tie-in with the house, it leaks.  The leak caused by KM’s poor workmanship at the tie-in of the roof of my home and breezeway has caused the soffit, fascia board on my home to rot out and it needs to be fixed. In spite of our efforts for the last 4 months to get KM and Keith Moehle, the owner to fulfill on their warranty for workmanship he has refused. Note: They issued and I have a 5 year workmanship warranty. When I had him come out to look at the warranty work on the portico/breezeway he said, “let me do the new roof and I will fix it (the leak and problem) when we do the roof”.  See  here in San Antonio, we had a big hail storm roll through and it messed up the roof and my insurance company is paying for a new one.  The warranty work is a separate issue and frankly I do not want this man or his workers near my house again.  Keith Moehle stated to me and then put in an email that “the Hail voided the warranty”, but these problems started way before the Hail Storm and he knows it.  I filed a claim with Travelers to access the soffit and fascia damage and they said “it is obvious to anyone that does this for a living that the hail had nothing to do with this leak”, thus they denied the claim.

2. The electrical system

They had to run a new hot lead and they just tied it in at the meter and never secured it per code.  Now I have this big gray wire sticking out of my electrical meter, jammed into the attic and it is all wrong.

3. He is a strong arm salesman.  I really believed in this man and his company.  But a nice smile and smooth sales technique is not enough to hide the fact that he doesn't care about his customers.

Had he fixed the portico leak and honored his warranty. I probably would not have reported him to the Better Business Bureau and the Consumer Protection Agency. Problems happen with construction, in spite of the contractors effort, like leaks. But don't strong arm customers and then expect them to love you or give you a pass.

"We feel that we can always improve in our service to our customers. This was a very complicated project with some unique features and processes. We patiently waited for the homeowner to make design decisions that would affect the course of our work. We did make sure that every concern of the homeowner was addressed every day when the Project Manager would make his daily visit and thorough inspection of the project. Unfortunately we did not realize that the homeowner expected to have our Project Manager on site all day long. It appeared that the homeowner expected him to watch our employees every moment that work was being performed. I mentioned to him that if he saw something that concerned him to rest assured that it did not mean we missed it, even if he told us about it before we saw it. Money was always an issue, for some reason, in spite of the fact that all the draws were small and spaced out as work was completed and that they were all prearranged in the terms of the contract. I have had several conversations with the homeowner during the project to ensure nothing was neglected. I reached out to the homeowner after the completion of the project. Every concern was addressed and he had indicated that he was thoroughly satisfied, with the exception of the price. Keith Moehle KM BUILDERS"

We attended a tour of remodeled homes in 2011 and asked two participating companies for design ideas and estimates. KM Builders had many great ideas and we chose them to do the work. They came up with a great design and with a few changes we asked for, began the actual remodeling work in March 2012. They gutted and remodeled  kitchen and added a custom hutch in the breakfast room as well as a skylight.  A wall between the kitchen and living room was removed and a new support beam installed. New tile floors were installed in the kitchen, breakfast room, hallway and entry. The kitchen ceiling was remodeled into a tray ceiling with a skylight, stained crown moulding and led lighting. They installed new gas lines so we could have a gas cooktop, reworked the plumbing, installed new fixtures, appliances, countertops, custom cabinets with led lighting, granite countertops,& tile backsplash. They also repainted the kitchen, breakfast room and scraped the popcorn ceiling in the living room and repainted it. They removed 4 half walls with spindles from the kitchen and dining room. In other words, they transformed our outdated 80"s kitchen and made it into a showpiece. We are extremely happy with the remodel. The cabinets were custom made by a great company here in San Antonio and they are beautiful as well as very functional.

The KM team did a great job and the quality of the finished product was outstanding.  Although we were extremely particular, Keith was very patient and helped us understand every aspect of the project.  The entire building process went as plan and the quality of the products was just as described.  Even after years of sunlight, the cedar was never re-stained and looked beautiful.  We recently sold our home after 15 years of celebrations and fond memories on our patio.  During the process, we had multiple offers, all because everyone loved our cedar covered patio!!

Design work went really well and as a result went with KM whose price was more than others. Early interactions seemed to support price premium and set high expectations.  Project suffered from turn-over in on-site supervisors.  This combined with rainy weather delayed final completion.  Unfortunately, concrete work was sub-par (this was done by subcontractor).  KM repaired where needed and offered to remove concrete slab for porch and replace at their cost.  However, deck work was nearly complete and we elected to leave it. The wood work for the deck and screened in porch is excellent -- the carpenters did an outstanding job and we have beautiful new outdoor spaces to complement our home.

I must say the final product is everything we wanted and we consistently receive positive feedback and fantastic compliments from everyone that see's the work that was done.  This is our first home so we were the typical indecisive couple not knowing what we wanted.  The first thought was have a mix between the existing tile and new wood floors in the living room and reading room.  But after some consideration and searching online, we came to our senses and decided to get tile throughout the first floor.  The next step was choosing a contractor for the work and picking the right tile.  Using Angie's list and some recommendations we eventually went with KM Builders.  Keith (owner) came to our home, got the measurements and we arrived at a price.  The sincerity I felt from Keith, helped my decision to sign the contract.  For the next few weeks, Brian (flooring specialist) came to our home and helped give us some further advice and was instrumental in us picking the right tile.   Because of his expertise, we were able to get a beautiful piece at a reasonable price straight from the manufacturer.  Once everything was set, it took some follow-up on my part to get a firm start date.  I'm sure this can be typical for a company that has many projects.  My only recommendation to KM is "keep your customer aware of any delays".  Prior to work start, we met with the Project Manager (Luis) to discuss final details.  Like everyone else he was very professional and courteous.  From the time work started to the end, the crew was awesome.  They started on-time, worked late, ensured my property was well protected from any debris.  They took pride in their workmanship and it showed in final product.  In my opinion the price was high but I'd much rather pay for high quality work and be totally satisfied than save a few dollars for subpar work and product.  I highly recommend KM Builders for your project(s).
