“John was fantastic with everything! He contacted me regularly to keep me updated on what step we were at in completing the project. He was great at working with the weather constraints and accommodating my schedule. If you are looking for a professional, high quality company - I recommend Big Bad Wolf Construction!”

“Pete and his team did a complete refinishing of our basement. It was done in two stages: the first included designing the empty space to make it most functional for us. We needed apartment type living as our daughter and two granddaughters are living with us. We wanted as much light as possible which he accomplished with the installation of extra windows and great lighting. In addition to a living area, we needed a desk area, a bedroom and bath and plenty of usable storage. He covered existing support posts and added closets. The second stage was begun after three years when we decided a kitchen was also needed so Pete again used his design expertise by converting the desk area into a wonderful kitchen which includes plenty of cabinet and counter top space, a refrigerator, sink, dishwasher and stove along with the addition of a beautiful, functional breakfast bar. Pete and his carpenters, plumbers and others were always respectful, on time and kept us abreast of what was happening on a daily basis. There were no unexpected delays. We could not have asked for a better outcome.”

“We purchased a new home from Hellings and have used Hellings to finish the lower level as well as other projects. Ross, Barry and his whole team are very focused on client satisfaction. There are always issues to deal with in large projects and our experience continues to be that Hellings is focused on getting things done the right way. Since buying our home and adding to the original house, we've used Hellings to put in a whole house generator, to install estate fencing and will certainly have them provide a bid on a pool and patio project that we also have on our list. Hellings is not trying to be the low cost option, but they take pride in doing each project the right way.”

“The Signature Construction and Design group came highly recommended to us for our home renovation. We worked with them to completely overhaul our 3 story townhouse. New kitchen, new master bath, hardwood refinish, upgrade all hvac, upgrade fireplace, new stair rails, removal of walls and interior steps, new lighting throughout, new master bedroom closet and closet insert installation throughout the entire house. We also had their carpenters take a slab of raw black walnut and create a "live edge" countertop bar for us that is the show stopper of the home. We took the home from mid 2000's spec home to mid century modern beautiful from top to bottom! The design and construction staff at Signature were excellent in assisting us with choices to make the home work together. Their carpentry staff built custom doors for a difficult closet and even built occasional tables from the live edge scrap material!! Their construction staff and their sub-contractors are the best in the business!”

“Reese and his team recently completed our row home kitchen renovation in South Philadelphia. Their quality of work was excellent and their prices very reasonable. Reese was always professional- very prompt to answer our questions, return calls, etc. They kept their tools and building supplies very organized and respected our home- even left the outside light on for us every night when they left. I would highly recommend their services to others in the area and hope to be able to use them again in the future. Thanks Reese and team!”

“Kurt Schlenbaker and his team are the best in the business. We have worked with them on many projects, from deep energy retrofit of an old warehouse to a new-construction passive house, and Kurt never disappoints. His attention to detail and craftsmanship, along with his clear communication and easiness to work with make him a go to design-builder for the projects we design.”

“Our third major project carried out by Bellweather turned out as well as we could have ever hoped. It involved the removal of walls to open out the ground floor, moving the back wall of the house further back to add square footage to the ground floor, the design and installation of a new kitchen and renovations to what had been the dining room. The project included significant electrical and plumbing work, design work by an architect and coordination with the City to obtain permits and get the work approved.”

“My husband an I built a new waterfront home in Elkton Maryland using Avalon Associates. It was a wonderful and exciting experience. Right from the start we knew that JR was the right builder for us. While looking at samples of his work every homeowner was singing his praises. It speaks volumes when a homeowner is still happy with the builder by the end of the project. Thankfully we can give the same resounding accolades. He was professional and knowledgable with a great group of employees and subs to execute each step of the process. While the project took longer than anticipated we did add a lot of extra details as we went along. JR was always willing to listen to our concerns and do whatever was necessary to accommodate our every wish!”

“In November of 2016, our home burned down. The insurance company gave us one year to find a builder, make plans, get all permits, knock down what was left of our old home and build a new home. We met with several builders and received estimates from all. It was clear our best choice was Frankland Builders. Dave Frankland, our main contact person, immediately began a very organized process of planning and building our soon to be beautiful new home. Experience, professionalism, and excellent personal skills made this project very successful. There were hundreds of decisions to be made, but through each phase Frankland Builders were organized and clear about choices and maintaining a steady timeline. From demolition, to planning the home, an updated water management system, executing the new build, including landscaping and a new driveway; this project was enormous. If my wife and I struggled with decisions, Dave and his team made themselves available to guide us and make good choices to stay on budget and end up with a fabulous home. In the end, our home was built on time, in budget, and is just beautiful. We are grateful to Frankland builders for taking care of us and getting us back home. Our home is well built, beautiful and made of nothing but quality products. Additionally the workmanship which went into building this home is evident throughout; from the beautiful floors, custom trim, to a well-planned layout, it is a gorgeous custom home. We couldn't be happier and give Frankland Builders the highest rating. Thank you!”

“Excellent job - one of the best renovations of a difficult home I have ever seen, pleasure to work with, and they have an eye on design.”
