Griffin Builders Inc.

It started with just a few ideas for a style reminiscent of your grandparents house. From those meager beginnings the Griffin's took a blank sheet of paper and created our dream home. We had fell in love with the Griffin style, and the character homes they built, several years prior to starting our own project and so they were the one call we made. Needless to say, we weren't disappointed. Brett and Amy were exceptional to work with and patiently answered our questions no matter how many times we probably asked. So too were the dedicated craftsman who brought our vision to life. What's especially important to find are people who can share in your vision and work towards that vision as if it were their own. The entire Griffin team's attention to detail and passion to get it right made all the difference. Whether it was Todd having to rebuild the staircase a couple of times (sorry Todd) or Amy ripping down tiles she didn't feel were correct, we always felt we could trust that our vision was in great hands. Some five years later we still enjoy talking about the building process and our home. I remember early on in the process when we were working with Brett to design the basic bones of the house. We were out at what was then an empty lot. In describing the process, Brett said that he wanted us to be able to look at our house and smile as we rounded the corner from a hard days work. Well, we still smile every day and would highly recommend Griffin Builders for your next project. Thank you Brett, Amy, and your entire family of great craftsman. Kurt & Amy

We decided it was time to build the new home of our dreams. After months of research and several years of seasonal Parade of Home’s tours, we were ready to begin the design and building process of a custom house.. The Griffin team oversaw every phase of our new house from start to finish. Their attention to detail and commitment to service allowed us to experience the fun of a construction project. We are completely satisfied with our home, and thoroughly enjoyed the entire experience.

Griffin Builders built our dream home and we could not be happier with how everything turned out. Having design help along the way made the experience even better. We highly recommend!

I chose to work with Griffin Builders for the design and construction of a new home for me and my 3 sons. My initial inquiry to Griffin Builders was based upon their reputation for highest quality, customer service, as well as the curb appeal of the other home they have built. All of those things were true for my project. Brett and Amy Griffin listened closely to what I needed and wanted, and helped make the entire design and build process enjoyable. Our home was a completely custom design that was completed in August 2014. I am extremely satisfied with the finished product and would absolutely work with Griffin Builders again!

Many things come to mind when asked to write a review for Griffin Builders... But the two key points I will make are: 1. My building experience with Griffin Builders was super easy and if we have ever had a question on ANYTHING, they were always there to help. Even 10+ Years later. 2. Being a REALTOR in the Fox Valley area for 20 years, I must point out that Griffin Builders has noticeable Resale Value! When you list a home that was built by them, Agents put "Built by Griffin" in all their advertising. Most the the time it is in the first sentence when describing the home! Agents and Buyers associate the Griffin name with Great Design and Top Quality.

Griffin builders helped make our dreams come true. The most impressive thing they did was listen. They asked what we wanted, what we liked, and what would make us happy. Being a first time home builder, I had a lot of anxiety and a lot of questions before, during, and after the house was built. The Griffin family was with us every step of the way, and always prompt to respond or set a meeting. They patiently explained things in detail and at a level anyone could understand. Their knowledge, vision and craftsmanship is second to none. Griffins took our vision and made it a reality. Once they knew what was most important to us, they used their extensive knowledge and skills to find ways to wow us with features such as large, exposed wooden beams and steeple ceilings in our family room. Opting for a false wall into a secret room for the kids instead of the original unfinished closet space was a nice surprise! Griffin Builders did an outstanding job finishing ahead of schedule and within budget. We've been in our home four years now and Griffins are still just a phone call away to answer questions and assist when things come up (like hail storms).

Griffin Homes builds quality and beautiful homes on budget and on time. But before the building even starts, Brett listens to your desires of design, size, finishes, etc. After perosnnally building several homes in 4 states, Griffin was by far the BEST! So professional, accommodating, and forthright with wonderful suggestions and extra touches that make your home unique and special to you. Once the house is finished, they don't just walk away. They stay with you through the settling process and come in and adjust/fix anything that needs it. Which is not much, based on such great quality, but they are there as needed. Truly wonderful building experience! Also made wonderful a friendship with an extraordinary family.

Griffin Builders Inc. did an amazing job building our new home in 2006. Amy Griffin sold our old home efficiently while Jack, Sue and Brett's team worked with us on all the design details and constructed the home which we love every bit as much today as we did when we moved in. They coached and helped us with all the tough decisions and kept the whole process enjoyable. They have continued to be a wonderful resource for us with anything that relates to our home... we can call them for advise and help at anytime. This service has been over and above what we would normally expect. They are very conscious of Quality and value in everything they do and I recommend them without reservation to anyone seeking a High Quality Homer Builder.

We contracted with Griffin Builders in 2008 to build one last house, our dream house. It all started with help in selecting a lot suitable for our house plan which we had been working on for a couple of years. Brett met with us to determine how to fit the house on the lot to take advantage of the amenities offered by the lot. Amy helped us "rethink" the interior layout and design and stayed by our side offering her creativity as the difficult decisions were made. The result was everything we had hoped for and an abundance of compliments from family, friends and the many visitors who viewed the house featured in the Valley Home Builders Parade of Homes. We had always been fond of Griffin Homes, their designs and quality construction. Flexibility and quality were paramount in selecting the builder we wanted, someone with patience and a willingness to make changes "on the fly" to meet our changing objective. Griffin Builders fit that bill to a tee. They are not a "cookie cutter" home builder and are capable of building any style home the customer desires within the desired price range. For us, truly a great experience!

Cannot say enough good things about Griffin. Have done everything with them from building our house to more recently finishing the basement. All aspects of the company are extremely professional and quite responsive. They have the ability to translate ideas and dreams into reality. I would use them again in a heartbeat.
