Where do we start? We are so thankful we found R Henry. We wanted to build a unique and special…read morehouse for our first complete build. We had observed several builders completed projects over a period of time. As we researched R Henry's work, more and more we became confident with the work they did. That being said, we met with Rich who is the owner and we provided ideas and plans that we were interested in. He took the time to listen to our requests and interests and ultimately provided us something that was far better than what we were originally looking for. So the process began and Rich was able to answer all of our questions from the finances to the building process. Rich introduced us to Aaron who would be our project manager who has been at our every beck and call, without hesitation. We then met with Megan who absolutely understood our tastes and ideas and paved the way for everything that made our beautiful home. After each planning meeting we had with R Henry we felt as though we were a part of their family, we felt more and more confident that we had made, not only the right decision in a builder but we had also made new friends. They had invited us to take part in their tour of homes and at each home we were welcomed by name into that specific home by a representative of R Henry. From day one we have had clear communications with Rich on the finances and timelines of the project. Aaron, our project manager has went above and beyond his duty by suggesting specific ideas and keeping this project ahead of the timeline as well as informing us of the details of the change orders that have come up during the project. Megan has been meticulous in providing us all of the options that work for us and our budget. With each meeting, Megan was able to take our ideas and create a beautiful place that we love to call home. We had even wanted work with a different plumbing fixture company other than their suggested Ferguson, and R Henry was more than accommodating when we went with a different provider. We appreciate all of the benefits of working with R Henry and knowing the idea that their contractors are professionals that pay attention to detail. Their contractors are not just your local "guy" who can get it done at a lower cost, which usually results in poor quality, and that made us feel as though they were building for us not just a job number. R Henry will build our next house, as they have made this build an enjoyment for us as well as a learning experience. We are so impressed with what R Henry has done with the project, the level of professionalism that has been displayed from the initial conversation with Rich to being able to work with literally most all of their staff. They have treated us far beyond our expectations. If you want a quality house with subject matter experts assisting you through the entire project look no further, R Henry is your builder.

My family recently completed a new home construction project with R Henry and The Design Element --…read morewe couldn't be more pleased with the results. I'm going to break the project down into a few areas for clarity. Getting started We had some ideas on the type of house we wanted. We provided Rich and his team with pictures of houses and floor plans we found online. The architects took what we provided and put all the concepts together into a design we loved! Education and guidance Going into this project I was concerned about the decisions I would have to make and the potential for cost increases. Everyone at R Henry and The Design Element kept our needs and finances in mind. They educated and guided us every step of the way. They helped us understand what products would be critical to our home and items that wouldn't make much difference when it came to resale value. They also helped us steer clear of products that could result in less than ideal quality. Architecture Every element of the home architecture was thought out, right down to placement of windows and the direction they opened. We wanted a lot of windows and an open floor plan. Jeff from R Henry helped us figure out the ideal floor plan and window placement so we were able to get what we wanted without breaking the bank. Kailee guided us to get an excellent kitchen layout that is spacious and convenient. Interior design We had several collaborative meetings with The Design Element and R Henry. One great thing about these two businesses is how closely they work together which provides continuity. Put simply, the interior of our home is amazing. We loved the products and finishes recommended by The Design Element. I want to give a special acknowledgement to our designer, Megan. She listened to our requests, sent us amazing options and guided us in what would look great. I feel like we had the freedom to get what we wanted and at the same time the guidance we needed to make sure everything worked together. We were so impressed with the home design itself that we extended our work with Megan to have her help us select furnishings and other decorations for our home. Everything is stylish and beautiful! Project management Overall the process was easy and I would do it again. There was a ton of moving parts and I couldn't imagine trying to manage the project all by myself. For this, I want to give a special acknowledgement to Aaron from R Henry. We actually started this project living across the US and he kept us in the know every step of the way with pictures and weekly, if not daily emails and calls. He sheltered us enough from the crazy pieces all needing to fit together and yet was transparent with us and explained all the details without them being overwhelming. He shared what was being done, why it was being done and how it was going to happen. Very clear and concise. Aaron always made time for those burning questions -- his patience and ability to keep things moving was key to the project. Quality and craftsmanship R Henry and The Design Element strive for quality. Our friends built a home at the same time we did with another builder. When I look at the products and finishes in their home, they do not compare. When my wife and I considered less than quality products, our builders and designers educated us on the pros and cons on those products. If our motivation for selecting a product was financial, they helped us find high-quality products at our price point. R Henry and The Design Element are proud of what they do and only want the best for their customers. I want to acknowledge the amazing woodwork done by Rob -- a master at what he does. We provided old barn wood from our family farm and he turned it into spectacular doors and accents throughout our home. His work on the shiplap is impeccable. We plan to continue Would we use R Henry and The Design Element again? Absolutely. The combination of quality, attention to detail, transparency and education, seal the deal. As a matter fact, we are already considering when we will have our next project with them.

There is 0 communication between the estimater the roofers, and the siders I may as well have had multiple contractors and played job superintendent. Their roofers must have free handed the cuts because I have never seen anything so hacked up I would be embarrassed to leave that kind of work behind. They left holes unblack jacked and a tore shingle in there aftermath. The roofers also damaged my siding while repairing a curled shingle then proceeded to tell no one. The poor cuts will never be addressed but most of the other issues have been fixed but only after having to make several calls to several people. (Poor communication) The siding was just sub-contracted out to a non-English speaking crew who cared little for quality but had more emphasis on speed. J channel is crooked, silicone was installed with little to no professionalism. They took 4 days to install a window which lead to me scraping expanding foam off my slate tile and wainscoting. Feel free to stop by my house on 169 in St. Peter before you have them throw materials on to your home. The most ironic part for me was the few calls for final payment before they were finished and before the final walkthrough, maybe their true talents ly in accounting. I was truly dissatisfied and shocked by their lack of quality. Good from a far but far from good.
