Featured Reviews for Minneapolis Home Builders

J Brothers Home Improvement Inc
Minneapolis Home Builders
2 November 2014
“J Brothers Home Improvement performed the job agreed upon(patio door replacement and 2 new decks) in a timely manner, and we were very pleased with the result. I highly recommend this company. We had also used them for a previous master bath renovation, so had the utmost of trust in their work.”
Pillar Homes
Minneapolis Home Builders
16 May 2014
“We would highly recommend Pillar Homes to build or remodel a home. We had our home built by Pillar Homes in 2011, and have been satisfied on all accounts- from the design process, to the build, and follow-up once we moved in. We were able to express our ideas and visions, and Pillar helped us shape them into reality. They listened carefully to our needs, but still allowed us to direct the creative process. A healthy home and environmentally responsible build were also high priorities, and a big reason we chose Pillar Homes and KC Chermak. The experience was fluid and surprisingly lacking in stress. In addition, we built our home while living in another state, and the Pillar team made it all work.”
CH Custom Homes, LLC
Minneapolis Home Builders
1 April 2018
“We had our home remodeled by CH Custom Homes and I am happier than I even thought I could be! Standing in my family room and looking into my kitchen actually gives me goosebumps! I would recommend the Custom team without any hesitation. From the beginning to the end I had nothing but positive experiences. From the estimate process, to the demolition, to the finish project everyone that I work with was nothing but Top Notch. It actually seems strange not having them around anymore!”
Pratt Homes
Minneapolis Home Builders
27 January 2017
“We looked at single family detached homes for nearly 2 years. We looked at new construction and existing homes from far south suburbs to far west and north suburbs. Everything of the quality we were seeking was highly priced or had association fees that were extremely high. We found the Pratt development in Hugo and bought a lot the same day. The quality of these homes is very high, the pricing is very reasonable. We stopped nearly every day during the building process and the quality of the craftmanship was superior. They bend over backwards to make it a wonderful experience for the buyer. We love everything about our new home.”
Kuechle Construction
Minneapolis Home Builders
19 December 2016
“The quality that Kuechle Construction is second to non. These guys have years of experience and it shows in the smallest of details. This is a company I would recommend to my own mother. I look forward to working with you in the near future!”
Lumber One Cold Spring
Minneapolis Home Builders
17 April 2018
“Lumber One in Cold Spring was a delight to work with. They built our home in the summer of 2014 and we were so pleased with their work, timely manner, and their ability to make our dreams/ideas a reality! We hired them back in the summer of 2017 to finish our basement. Great company, great service. Highly recommend!”
Jacobson Construction, Inc.
Minneapolis Home Builders
12 November 2014
“We are DYI people and try to be savvy shoppers during projects to keep budgets on track. However there are times it is wise to hire a professional and Rick Jacobson is that guy. We have hired Rick for many projects (big & small) over the past 18 years. 1. Enlarging basement bedroom and additional storage. 2. Bathroom remodel - Created beautiful tiled shower in basement to replace a small corner prefab one. Easily twice the size and a good 6 inches taller. 3. Replaced all our exterior doors and windows with precision. All windows continue to open and close effortlessly years later. Rick made sure we had all the paperwork for energy efficient tax rebate. 4. Enlarged kitchen doorway and relocated header out of sight in attic space with stunning results. 5. His recommendations for subcontractors have been good as well. Have used same carpet installer for additional projects. No matter what size of project you are doing Rick is always professional, stays in communication, respectful of home interior, clean up and doesn't leave a job until we are satisfied. Rick has welcomed us working alongside him. We have learned so much and truly respect his skill and expertise. During our recent kitchen remodel we needed to hire a drywall crew ASAP after ours was a no show at the last minute. Got 4 estimates in 24 hours. Decided to take the bid that was $850 less than Rick. Huge mistake. When we hired Rick for finish trim it was obvious what a shoddy drywall job it was. Because of his experience Rick was able to make all the trim work look perfect. We are still stuck with a shoddy drywall job. You can always find someone to do it cheaper and you will live with that for years.”
Swanson Homes
Minneapolis Home Builders
27 February 2018
“Swanson Homes is fantastic builder that pays attention to their clients needs and the details that go into every home.”
Jen-Tor Construction LLC
Minneapolis Home Builders
15 September 2019
“In 2016, we contracted with Jen-Tor to design and build a second story on our single story house in Buffalo, MN. We also had them wrap and install vinyl siding. Mike Haught and his team did an excellent job on the project. Mike frequently communicated the status of the project and handled all of the subcontractors. We were/are very pleased with the quality of the work Mike and his team did. I would highly recommend Mike and his company to anyone seeking an honest and quality contractor.”
Creek Hill Custom Homes
Minneapolis Home Builders
13 December 2013
“I have designed many kitchens for Creek Hill Custom Homes. Each experience was fun and exciting. The entire staff from owner to realtor was involved and eager to do everything they could to make each home unique and function well for each family. I highly recommend their team for all who are looking for a fabulous design/build experience and true value. Sincerely, Tricia Tidemann Kitchen & Bath Designer”

Why hire a Minneapolis home builder to create your dream home?


Often, when buying a property, there are things that are not quite to your taste that you would change, or get rid of. Even if you have the money and skilled workers, it is difficult to create something that is exactly as you’d like given that you are building on something that already exists. It could be that the layout of your property is just not how you would have chosen it to be had you been starting from scratch. For some people, having the perfect home is very important and the only way to achieve this is to build from the ground up with the help of a Minneapolis home builder. This sometimes also even makes more financial sense as it would cost less to do this than to rearrange an entire, pre-existing home. This may seem like a daunting task, and admittedly, it’s not for the faint-hearted. But with extensive research, trusted builders, detailed budgeting and good judgement you might soon be sitting in the house of your dreams, at a snip of the cost.


How do you look for the right home builder?


When looking for a Minneapolis building company to take on your project, you will want to know that they will be able to handle the job in good time and sticking to your agreed budget. A professional builder will have worked on projects like yours previously and they will know exactly what to do.

Your architect’s plans will serve as clear instructions to your builder and, if the former has done their job well, you should also avoid any nasty surprises with the local council. Finding the right builder need not be a long or difficult process. Personal recommendations aside, a good place to start is the Home Builders in Minneapolis category of the Find a Pro section on Houzz, where you can see their previous work and ask questions.

Compile a shortlist of at least three builders in Minneapolis that can handle the full scope of works, either by themselves or through sub-contracting. It is often a good idea to play devil’s advocate and ask what the builder will not be responsible for, such as structural engineer consultations. Be wary of unusually cheap quotes. Ask for references and stories about how the builder has met different challenges along the way. If you can, you could try to see builders’ previous projects in person and talk to previous clients, or if not, read reviews, recommendations and ratings, and look at detailed photos of projects.

Agree a clear schedule of work, an itemised and fixed quote (inclusive of VAT), and a staged payment scheme with balance to be paid subject to satisfaction. All under contract. Leave no stone unturned. Ask lots of questions.

Some questions you may want to ask your potential Minneapolis house builder might be:
  • How long have you been operating as home builders?
  • Who will be working on the project?
  • Which subcontractors will you be using?
  • May I see a current work in progress and speak to a previous client?
  • Are you insured?
  • What materials will you be providing?
  • What happens if the completion date is delayed?
  • What happens if the cost exceeds agreed budget?
  • Is work under warranty?
  • What is the notice period for termination of contract?

If you are looking for a professional house builder in Minneapolis to work with you on your project, then you’ve come to the right place. At Houzz, we can help you find potential builders for your job by connecting you with pros. Additionally, you can also look through Minneapolis photos to find a project you like, then contact the builders that created it.
