Bourbeau's Future Customers,
We looked into many different avenues for a home which included buying an existing house or condo, having a modular home built and custom built homes. We met with Dennis Bourbeau in the beginning of June 2010, and within a week got the opportunity to view one of his homes. We had viewed other homes and his was the best quality we had seen.
We decided to go through the design process with Dennis and with his help came up with a home design we were very pleased with. He was very patient with us and gave good suggestion we would not have thought of. He also gave us a closing date of 16 weeks or sooner for moving into our new home, which was very important for us to get into our new home before fall and cold weather. Dennis' team started the beginning of July. The whole process went very smooth. There were a few glitches to deal with during the building process, but Dennis made them right for us.
Dennis is great to work with as well as the rest of his team. I am very impressed with the quality and the energy efficiency of our new home. I am also very grateful that I found a builder who is organized and can get the job done within a set period of time and stay on budget. I have heard stories from other people going through the building process and their builders went way over budget and took much longer to complete their home. We were in our home 3 weeks earlier than promised and were close to our estimated cost given to us before building. We are very happy to have found Dennis and love our new home!
Thank you to Dennis and his amazing team!!

Building a new home is a huge undertaking and choosing Bourbeau Custom Homes to design and build our home was by far the best decision we made. Denis came highly recommended from our neighbors who have built two homes with him. We were amateurs to say the least when it came to designing and building our new home, but we did know what we wanted and it was a fairly complicated design. Denis sat with us for many hours coming up with the 3D CAD design of our home and now that we are in the house it is amazing how true to life the design was. From the beginning every aspect was very clearly laid out, due dates for selections, dates of the phases of the construction, and the costs associated with each phase. We were a winter build so that in itself presents some challenges, but amazingly the house was completed right on schedule. Denis was quick to get back to us if we had a question and was the utmost professional. Every one of the suncontractors was wonderful to work with and open to changes we decided to make along the way and never hesitated to make them happen so our home would be just as we wanted it to be. We visited the site every day and everyone took the time to talk to us and ask if we had any concerns. You hear all of the horror stories about everything that goes wrong when you build a house and how stressful it is, but we can honestly say it was a great experience and if we didn`t love our house so much we woud do it again!

As first time home buyers we were inexperienced in the process of buying a New home. We never dreamed that our first home together would be a new house. Denis made it all possible, he worked with our budget and told us what we could and could not afford. He was very honest in his dealing with us. We appreciated all the time and patience he set aside for us to make our house our home. He was very accommodating for our needs. If we were not happy he fixed it! He always exceeded our expectations and met the completion date ahead of schedule.
I have no worries with Denis and his construction workers. They were all very nice and did amazing work. We knew we were getting the best. We were not only satisfied with the house they built, we were amazed how things came together so beautifully.
We recommend Bourbeau Custom Homes to everyone we meet. We want to build with Denis again in the future. Without Denis our dreams of having a house would not have been possible.
Thank you,
The Stevens Family

We had no experience in building a new home when we met Denis. We had an old camp and wanted to rebuild. We had to stay in a limited footprint but we had a vision of what we wanted. Denis was able to turn that vision into a reality.
The 3D CAD program was amazing, enabling us to see our plans and make changes. Denis was great with suggestions and listening to our thoughts and ideas. With all the choices and decisions we felt it was going to be overwhelming but Denis has things so organized that everything went smoothly. Our new house was built on schedule and on budget!
Denis was always available to answer questions or address concerns. We highly recommend Bourbeau Custom Homes to anyone thinking of building. We love our new home - it is eveything we dreamed of.
Thanks!
Sincerely,
Michele & Bruce Viani

I would categorize Bourbeau Custome Homes as High Quality, A head of schedule and on Budget. Our experience was fantastic. We honestly didn`t have to worry about any of the details, they were all taken care of. Our home exceeded our expectations. Advice given was excellent and in many cases saved on the overall cost.
We are a busy family with small children - Bourbeau Custom Homes offered a variety of ways to choose selections. The one that worked for us was that we could make selections utilizing electronic catalogs and websites, at out convenience. Deb was great in letting us know what we needed to do and when and gave us plenty of lead time.
Our home was a 10 year dream in the making and honestly, it was a dream come true.
Thank you!

In February 2009, we lost our home in a horrific fire that destroyed everything. We talked to many builders and were surprised at the lack of interest shown in helping us to rebuild. We talked to Dennis and were immediately impressed by his desire to help. We were impressed by the quality of his work in the homes we had seen in our area. On September 14, we moved into our new home. The whole process with Dennis, Matt, Brian, John, Corey and everyone who worked with them was unbelievable. Denis worked with us on our design, showing us in 3D CAD design how our home would look, which allowed us to make modifications and see how it looked after each modification. When the building started, we were totally amazed by the quality of work, attention to detail, and timeliness. Every night when we arrived, it was swept clean and we could see how great a job the carpenters, plumbers, electrician, finish workers and the many other workers had done. I can't say enough good things about all of them. Our finished home is beyond what I had expected. If I were going to build another home, I would not talk with anyone else! Thank you Denis, and everyone else who worked on our home for giving us our home and a reason to smile again.

"We just moved into our dream home which was completed ahead of schedule and on budget. Our past experience with builders did not prepare us for that. We can't believe how smoothly the whole process went from start to final detail. Denis, Matt and all the rest of the crew did fine work. Every aspect of the project was clearly and completely explained. We would highly recommend Bourbeau Custom Homes to anyone building in the area."

We continue to be pleased with the house and your service. I brag to everyone about the quality service you provide and encourage them to contact you to see for themselves. Matt had great follow up a month after we moved into the house especially trying to find me at work....excellent customer service!!! I had the privilege of attending a "Journal of Life Construction (JLC)" Hanleywood conference in May and got to see first hand thousands of construction companies, future plans, business process, "building green," the 3-D CAD designs programs, new products, etc.. First-hand. I was proud to tell them about your service (my builders) including the CAD designs, large binder of choice, incredible building time and follow up. You are really a top notch business with the family friendly personal feel.

Thanks for a great job!
It is so nice to work with people of vision that listen to the home owner and follow thru in an organized and professional manner. Your attention to the smallest of details was appreciated. I will always recommend you and your capable staff to friends and clients looking for someone to design and create an addition to their homes or when looking to build a new home.
Thanks Again, Judy and Dan Desorcie

I don't think it is possible for me to have found two nicer, more caring, personable and professional people to deal with and have build me a home, than Denis Bourbeau. From the day I met him, he has helped put a permanent grin on my face throughout this entire process. I cannot forget in this the work that Matt does as well and the subs, who helped complete my dream home in only 10 short weeks, with the utmost professionalism and top quality craftsmanship.
I sat in the real estate office, (the second one within a two month period), thinking I'd never find anything affordable, and in good shape, and worth making that next step from renting to owning...and while I waited for the real estate agent to show up for our meeting I flipped through "The Real Estate Guide". My eyes lit up as soon as I saw the add...could it actually be possible? I went through the whole meeting wanting to leave and call Bourbeau Custom Homes, ASAP.
The rest is history...
If your thinking of building, there is no one better. The Bourbeaus have worked with me in ways I cannot thank them enough. I truly cherish this experience, the friendships, and OBVIOUSLY the final product, which is more than I ever dreamed possible.
Thank you SO much!!!

When we were looking for a builder of our new home, we saw all the beautiful big houses that the Bourbeau's had built and we were somewhat intimidated by how beautiful and expensive they looked. We were pleasently surprised to find out how excited they were to build us our new home and that we were able to build our dream house within our budget. The allowances proved to be more than enough to put the quality touches we wanted in our home. We shopped around and actually came in $1100.00 under allowance for our flooring, and we get more compliments on how beautiful our Red Oak hardwaood floors and porcalin ceramic tile look in our home. Denis and his staff are truely passionate about their work and maintaining the high standards they demand from the contractors they do business with. They quickly addresses the changes we requested during the building process and still beat the original closing date established at the early stages of contruction.
If you are considering building a new home, do yourself a favor and talk to Denis before you make your final decision. Take a drive around some of their developments and talk to the homeowners. That is what we did and found that everyone we talked to had the same positive experience.
We not only ended up with the home of our dream, but we made some new friends as well.

Our home is now 2 years old as of August 2006. We are still so very happy with it and cannot say enough good things about the Bourbeaus.
The Bourbeaus were extremely patient with us in the design and planning of our home. They understood that this was our dream home and that we planned to be in the home for 20 years or more. Finding a general contractor like the Bourbeaus is rare. The Bourbeaus' pride in craftsmenship and hardworking ethics show.
The Bourbeaus were very easy to work with and made every effort to accomodate our needs. They were willing to make last minute changes happen if feasible. They offered valuable suggestions and input when trying to make ALL those decisions. A priceless service in my mind.
The construction is above par to excellent. Denis and his staff are careful in selecting subcontractors from excavating, foundation, framing, plumbing, heating, electric, sheetrock, painting, and finish work. They committed to a 16 week schedule and kept their world. This too is very valuable when trying to plan a move from an old home to a new one
A few issues came up in the months after closing but the Bourbeaus were quick to address them and covered all additional expenses with no hesitation! Again a great relief to know we were taken care of from beginning to end.
It was a busy timing building but not stressful. The Bourbeaus were always available and quick to reply to questions and inquiries.
If anyone is considering a Bourbeau Custom home and would like to ask a few question, please feel free to call us. Our number is listed in the phone book.
Thanks again, Denis!

We recently built a house with Bourbeau Custom Homes. It was the first time we built a new home and I can honestly say it was a great experience. The house was completed at the beginning of their estimate time range. The quality is great and we are thrilled with the results. Many people had told us that building a new home would be extremely stressful. We found that their organization made it a very smooth process. We knew who to contact and when as well as what our allowance was up front. We were also informed of any overages/underages in our allowance before anything was ordered which helped us to plan accordingly. I was also surprised at how generous the allowances were and how easy it was to stay on budget.
As we were building our home and meeting with vendors, as well as our bank and attorney, we were pleasantly surprise at how many people came out and told us we made a great choice when it came to builders. I would recommend this company to anyone.
