We are so thrilled with our new home! This is our first experience building a custom home, and from…read moreour very first meeting with Harvey to the finished product, it has been a distinct pleasure to work with Turnstone Custom Homes. Erik took our rough concept and designed the perfect home for us - and on a very narrow lot with plenty of restrictions. Lisa was a very patient and calm guide as we faced the daunting task of design selections. And the project management team led by Morgan and his skilled colleages, Jason and Mike, are true professionals who care about the details and the product they turn out. The entire Turnstone team is extremely knowledgeable, very responsive, professional, courteous and friendly. They were excellent at managing costs and completed our home on time (maybe even a little early) and under budget. We're almost sorry that the construction is finished because we miss them! If you're planning to build a custom home in Delaware, Turnstone Custom Homes is the company you MUST use!

We built two homes with Turnstone starting in 2020, until we fired them for breach of contract…read more We've been in the midst of an extensive redo of both houses (with a new contractor) with great financial burden, so I have decided to share my experience with others in hope others will do some due diligence before engaging with them. The issues are almost too egregious and numerous to note. That said, the main issues were contracting for a custom kitchen/built-in closets and getting boxed cabinets which were installed with untenable damage, color variations throughout, and missing components. Our custom wood siding was installed outside the manufacturer's installation guidelines, resulting in one entire house needing to be resided with extensive modifications to the installation, necessitating the addition of 2" wood firing to attach the vertical siding. The wood refiring has changed the envelope of the house, which required removing windows, changing the internal window sills, retiling the bathroom sills, pulling out the external electrical panels and outlets to meet the new envelope, etc. They installed four custom metal panel windows and doors, also with considerable damage; they leaked, the metal rusted from all the installation damage, wouldn't close, etc. Most of the windows in one house weren't flashed and our largest (and most expensive windows) were installed incorrectly. Between the siding debacle and the leaking windows, we've had to remove or reinstall or replace almost all the windows. (One window came in white and they actually painted it black instead of replacing it with the correct window--no kidding. ) The HVAC was installed below grade and created extensive leaking in both basements. Finally, the patio drain required per the plans was not installed. We had to remove the patio, install/dig a large drain, and replace the patio to move the water away from the house. I have another long list of items, but these are the main issues. Each validated by both an experienced and reputable engineer and our current contractor. To date, we have spent over $525,000 correcting the issues. This does not include things that were unfinished, only done incorrectly. We have estimated it will take another $150,000 to finish the project. I'm in the midst of arbitration with Turnstone, so you might be asking why I am voicing this concern before things are resolved. Just today I have talked to three people who had similar experiences with Turnstone. It's not just the workmanship that's of concern, but the consistent way they've not stood their work, gas-light people who had valid concerns, and left clients with sub-par solutions. They want to blame their issues on their clients, or COVID, or vendors, but it's become so obvious that Turnstone is shaking and jiving in hopes of avoiding the enviable responsibly that comes with living up to their promises. My only hope is that my review offers other clients a moment ask more questions and Turnstone to reconsider their business practices.
