Being first time home builders, we were apprehensive about building a custom home, especially from 3000 miles away. After meeting with Steven, seeing how the BuilderTrend software would keep us in the loop, and phone discussions with Joe to iron out the design, we were confident we had made a good choice.
Wirtanen’s allotments were appropriate for the level of quality we desired in our new home, allowing us to get what we wanted without significant change orders and cost overruns. Their signature woodworking on doors and trim resulted in a beautiful custom interior without having to upgrade from “contractor grade”.
Joe was a pleasure to work with and also worked well with the subcontractors. He provided valuable advice as we refined the house design, oriented the house and utilities on our site, and selected trim details and appliances.
Not everything went perfectly, but Wirtanen obviously takes great pride in their products and worked to make things right. We are very happy with our new home and would recommend Wirtanen to anyone thinking of building.
