My husband and I just completed a major remodel of our home in Boulder. The house, built in 1985,…read morerequired major updating. After talking with multiple contractors and receiving bids, or should I say, guess estimates, all varying from low, mid range to high, we were eventually introduced to George Raffenspeger, owner of Taylor Custom Homes. He and his lead manager and master carpenter, Chad, were an excellent team. They organized reliable subcontractors, all professionals in their craft. I can easily imagine the nightmare we would have experienced without George. We paid him to give us a DETAILED estimate. Requiring time on George's end, if we used him, the money for the estimate would and was applied to the project. He was spot on accurate. George directed us to suppliers which saved us significant amounts of money without compromising our design choices. (FYI: Markup at many kitchen and bath designer showrooms is HUGE!) He also provided alternatives which other contractors never brought to the table. For example, we wanted a new contemporary stair railing. He suggested, Joan of Arc, a fabricator in Longmont. Also, he suggested Windsor Windows, a Colorado company which we had no knowledge of until George gave us the opportunity to compare their quality and price with other window companies. Had we found George at the start of our project, my husband and I would have saved a great deal of time and money. Choosing Taylor Custom Homes we received the best in options and craftsmanship. Our Windsor Windows are beautiful and energy efficient. Chad's trim work, and carpentry, superb. I want to add we had a budget. Our house has 6 panel fir doors, all original. One contractor said painting our doors would be too costly and we should purchase all new MDF. Not true. Our painter, Gary, sanded and painted ALL of our fir doors. We changed out the old hardware and the cost was equal to purchasing MDF doors. Save yourself time and a lot of unexpected surprises and expense. Taylor Custom Homes does not have a website but has been in business for over 30 years. I phoned previous Taylor Custom Homes customers from the company's reference list and their accolades were the same. Sooooo, here's consistency and tremendous customer satisfaction.

We have owned three new homes and we have been in the business of renovating homes and reselling…read morethem. Journey Homes has been the best developer of the new home we recently purchased. The last new home we owned where Taylor Morrison was the developer was the absolute worst. So, we know the difference. We view our Journey Home as well constructed and we believe we got a great deal on the price given the real estate market. We have submitted warranty items that have been addressed in a timely fashion. We have been able to meet the contractors and each one of them has been friendly, knowledgeable, and fixed the problems to our satisfaction. Norm from the warranty claims division has been wonderful to us and we appreciate him. The online portal to check the status of warranty work is great. Colorado has expansive soils. Developers do their best to mitigate the issues with expansive soils. However, the fact is concrete will crack and move. This is a given in Colorado. It's why joints are put into the concrete pads to account for movement. Hopefully, the cracks will be minor. However, the developer cannot predict how the soil will move and how the concrete will crack. This is why they put a limitation on their responsibility for what is really beyond their control. I know it can be frustrating for first-time homebuyers who expect the home to remain pristine over time as when first purchased. However, this is an unreasonable expectation when buying a home in Colorado.

After purchasing 4 years ago, I am in the hole for $30K plus, closer to $50K if you include what I…read moreput into it, cabinetry, yard etc. Homes are losing value fast! No one wants them. This builder dominates Northern Co but everyone looks down on them. The homes look cheap and are low end quality. They use the cheapest materials and their contractors do shotty work. Crooked walls, cabinets hung off center, leaking windows and today I am dealing with a rodent issue due to the exterior not being sealed correctly. The install of my heater was done incorrectly, causing condensation and water which caused it to go out, had to replace the whole unit after 2 years. One issue after another and can't sell it to save my life. Huge mistake.... run, don't do it. Go with anyone else.
