“We just closed on our custom-built Discovery Builders home! Working with Alex and Kirsti was wonderful, and we were able to create a home that we will love for years to come. We handled much of the process via email, as we lived out of state, but even that went smoothly and we always got prompt replies to our questions or concerns. We haven’t been here long, but I can say that thus far we are very impressed with the quality of the workmanship in our new home. I would highly recommend Discovery Builder’s homes.”

“I couldn’t be more happy with our new house from Discovery Builders. They have been so helpful every step of the home buying process. Project Manager Brian was attentive to details when we walked through our house together. He pointed out things that needed to be fixed that we would not have noticed as first time homebuyers. For our final walkthrough, he went over all the things we had discussed fixing previously. Everything was fixed perfectly. Everyone that we have met with through Discovery Builders has been attentive, helpful, and kind. We highly recommend them!”

“This has been a while coming but we finally made it! Yay! Discovery has been completely thorough throughout the entire process. They have kept us informed with every step and the finished product is absolutely beautiful. On the day of closing we went through the final inspection with every little thing addressed on prior inspection. They went through all of the various warranties they covered down to the last dot. We have never been happier and HIGHLY recommend Discovery builders.“
