Are Saying
Our reviews speak for themselves. These are the notes, cards, and letters our clients have sent us over the years, in their own words and close to full length, because the relationship is the part of building a home that a photograph can't show. Filter by stage, or read straight through.
Lynn and Mike
Good morning,
I’ve been thinking of all of you and praying that life is treating you well. I’m sure you’ve been busy helping families create their dream homes.
As we have settled in over the last year or so in our home, Mike and I wanted to let you know how grateful we are for all the hard work, care, and dedication your team put into making our vision a reality. We are thankful every day for this beautiful home and the special place it has become for our family and loved ones.
We have already created so many wonderful memories here, and we know there will be many more to come. As we reflect on this year we also remember Doug with gratitude we know he was dealing with difficult health issues as he worked to complete our home We remain grateful for his vision, insight and knowledge he brought to us and to his company Especially how he truly cared for each family he worked with It is wonderful knowing you all carry on his work
Thank you for the role each of you played in bringing our dream together.
May you all be blessed with peace, happiness, and the satisfaction of knowing that your work truly makes a difference in people’s lives.
Michael and Jeannie
Dear Everyone at McSpadden Homes,
Michael and I cannot thank you enough for our beautiful dream home. From the beginning of the process through the exchanging of keys, it has been a seamless and positive experience. Everyone has been so helpful and professional. We will be singing your praises! We would like to invite you all over once we get settled for a housewarming party so you can all see the fruit of your labor. Again, we are so thrilled and ecstatic to start enjoying our home.
James
Hi Tim,
We covered a lot today. The little details make all the difference. Thanks for your patience with us! Days like today reinforce our choice choosing you as a partner to build the home we want to be our home for life.
Regards,
Tara
We absolutely love our house. The entire McSpadden team is amazing to work with and are some of our friends today. Mike always ensured our house was made with the highest quality. Ketta and Tim were so helpful in the process and couldn’t have done it without all three. The mastermind and visionary – Doug – saw it all from the beginning and we still have his hand made drawing!
Chris
Doug and Mike,
We hope you are doing well. We just closed on the new home, which will be great, but it confirmed what I told K when we sold NC, “That’s the best constructed home we will ever own”. You guys set the bar on quality, attention to detail, and personal touch.
Jeannie and Michael
Connor,
I just wanted to let you know how impressed Michael and I are with the building process this far. I especially want to give major kudos to Jason. His communication and attention to detail have been outstanding. He is professional, responsive and we feel very confident in his ability to deliver an excellent product – we are so excited about our new home!
Lynn and Mike
"We want to thank you for the beautiful home we are moving in to. It has been a long road with our crazy challenging lot. We want to thank you and the team for the very well-structured team you have put together. From the first call with Donna (so sweet and helpful) to Mike J, dealing with us and all the trades.
The whole team has put in countless hours from Developing the dream with Doug and Tim (both so open to my visions and ideas😊) to Ketta guiding us through hundreds of decisions, and millions of questions on selections of every detail.
Once we were unleashed on Mike J, hopefully with forewarning from the rest of the team, we definitely kept him close, with endless questions. Trying to balance us and the trades was no easy task !
And all the rest of your staff, whether Laurie patiently dealing with us understanding our payments, Connor jumping on board, and sharing new ideas. You have built a strong team. I am hoping that all of you will be able to plan a visit when Mike J is back. We would love that.
I am sharing a video I made a month ago for my family.
And a few pictures with some furniture in.
I will have to get one of the dining room today. It looks great.
So appreciate everything.
Brian
Hi Everyone,
This is so great! Even better than what I had in mind. Looks a lot less like a big two-story block and adds so much balance and unique touches/depth/dimension, etc. I can’t wait to see as we start to add different materials along the way to enhance certain aspects even more. Margo’s first words were “oh wow, I really love this.” I of course looked at it 10 times and loved it more and more each time. I really don’t think there would be any changes to this but just one or two ideas to run by you guys next week. I’d say on our end, it’s definitely a 99% perfect look!
The upstairs flow looks awesome to get the two beds and baths up there. Smaller rec room still should be plenty of space for kids and their future friends as a cool hang out spot. Love the fact that one bathroom still has access from the hallway for when the kids friends are there.Understood on the other notes. This won’t affect any of the exterior look so it makes sense to focus on them next week. The bump out on the garage and master suite looks great and definitely add to the useful space we have in mind. We’d love to set up a call to discuss early next week and maybe even in person next Friday assuming the rest of the first-floor changes will be done.
Thank you,
Tara and Mary
Doug:
Thank you for the note.
Have to say that you and your team built us an absolutely beautiful house. WE LOVE IT!.
I always envisioned one day building our final house on the water, and this ended up being spectacular.
The entire process for us was seamless.
Working with Tim and Ketta initially was so easy and fun! Even when we were stressed out and couldn’t decide we looked to them both to help out. Their guidance and insights were amazing and spot on.
Then to actually making the magic happen, Mike was flawless. He truly knows what he is doing and makes sure there is excellence in the folks working on the house.
Absolutely LOVED working with this team of folks. I feel we really have made friends and people we want to continue to hang out with in the future.
We are happy to share our experience with others like we have recently, so please feel free to let us know how we can help.
Thank you for the housewarming basket, wine and GC to Drift. We definitely can’t wait to use it all.
Cari
Doug,
We so appreciate everything you and your team have put into our beautiful home! We both commented this morning how exciting it is as we get settled and it still hasn’t sunk in that we are here in our forever home!
All the details from choosing the right lot for us, the placement on the lot (it is perfect and the view is awesome) and the various alterations we made during design make this home so amazing. You, yourself, were such a wonderful guide through those early steps and please know how much we appreciate your guidance and your patience. Jason took it from there and turned it into more than we imagined.
Also a big kudos to Tim and Ketta and the rest of the Team! The attention to detail and urgency that we unfortunately were facing came together nicely in the end. And the hard work has not gone unnoticed.
While I will miss our weekly or daily interactions with McSpadden, we hope to see you all in Hunts Point in the future building for other lucky neighbors. We definitely will reach out once we get settled, but in the meantime if you are driving by, please stop by just to say Hi!
Hope you enjoy your Sunday and have a great week ahead!
Thank you again
Kim and Chuck
Hi Doug,
I hope all is well with you! It’s been so incredibly exciting watching it come together. We have you Jason and Ketta to thank for that. It is just a gorgeous home and we are excited to get in soon….. The house is just beautiful. We can tell it is as beautiful on the outside as well in the internal build. You and your team have a lot to be proud of!!!! We are so anxious to get in and spend TG with all of our family in November. I hope you are well and feeling more like yourself. We keep you in our prayers and will continue to keep you in our prayers. Take care and we look forward to closing. THANK YOU FOR ALL YOU PUT INTO OUR HOME AND THAT GOES FOR THE WHOLE TEAM KETTA, JASON, TIM, MIKE, YOURSELF AND YOUR WIFE. WE ARE SO EXCITED TO SEE THE FINISHED PRODUCT!!!!
Chris
Doug,
Our move from NC was such a flurry of activity that I don’t believe I shared a comment I made to K while we were driving away. I said “that is the best constructed, highest quality home we will ever own”.
I hope you are well. Our best to Mike.
Chris
You certainly built a special one with this home and everyone, from the photographers to the appraisers to subs, have commented on the design, quality of construction, lot placement, etc.
Anne
So glad it is McSpadden who is building across the street from our home.
Cheri
Thank you so much Doug. I had a great experience with McSpadden and really enjoyed the process. Mike was awesome and we are very happy. 😃
Asa
Jenna and I are so thankful for each of you and are beyond blessed. We had a fantastic thanksgiving as a family in our new home!I hope each of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well and have a great week!
Rob and Karen
Tim,
Many times when we are sitting around the pool, screened in porch, we say how fortunate we were to have you and Jason on point for the build of our lovely home. You guys and the entire McSpadden team were awesome, top quality, easy to work with and always felt you had our best interest and most important have developed a friendship.
PS we do miss the weekly updates
Debbie
We enjoyed working with you all, love our house and love to show it off! Thank you for making our dream come true!
Sean and Dana
McSpadden Homes,Thank you so much for everything during this process. We appreciate it more than you know.
Dana
Oh my word Jason the front looks absolutely beautiful. I love it so much 🥹🥲. The refrigerator is awesome I now love that space so much. Thank you for finding that scratch. I saw it last week and meant to tell you during the walk through but my head was on the white paint for the cabinets and drawers. You have built our forever home and I am grateful.
Asa
Mike, you have been nothing short of exceptional throughout this entire process. Your level of communication, organization and execution has truly made our experience in building this house a joy. Jenna and I have so many friends that have nothing but horror stories about building their homes and it almost makes them sick when we start talking about how great our experience has been with you and this team.
Doug, Donna, Tim and Ketta,
we’re so thankful for all of your hard work as well. Each of you have been fantastic to work with and have made this project seem like a walk in the park. Genuine CARE is always easy to spot and it has been crystal clear that you all are dedicated and care about the work you do. Simply put, this whole team is 1st Class!
Jenna and I are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out and can’t wait to make this house our home.
Debbie and Jim
Thank you so much for all of the wonderful gifts. We absolutely love the creel basket. It is the perfect addition to our “fishing” themed drop zone, I think I’ll use it to hold the dog leashes. I also found this vintage picture of an old, weathered fisherman that reminds me so much of Jim’s grandfather that owned the cabin and property, that we will hang near the drop zone. I attached a pic of Jim and his grandfather from 12 years ago when we visited him on one of his Lake Wylie properties. He was trying to give Jim the clothes he doesn’t wear anymore because they were the exact same size 😊
Our daughter drove in today to help us move and we made veal parmesan for dinner with the goodies from the baskets.
Thank you so much for your kindness. We could not have chosen a better builder. The little things we never gave a second thought to, the quality and beauty that is inherent in all of your builds – we are so very grateful for.
We were very overwhelmed today, in all the best of ways. We are enjoying the process of moving in slowly, but surely!
Debbie
Thanks so much Donna! We are super excited, hard to believe the closing is right around the corner! But, we will miss all of you that helped to make our home build so smooth and easy! Please stop by if you get the chance. We so enjoyed working with you all!
Ann
We love everyone at McSpadden and we treasure the relationship that was forged alongside the house building. We saw some dirt moving around Lot 39 and we are excited to see what’s going to get built.
Tony
Yes indeed, the house looks amazing! We are so excited and thankful to have such a beautiful home to live in.
Everyone on the McSpadden team has been outstanding in helping us with the planning and execution, project management and design.
We are truly blessed and forever grateful to you.
Tonya & Stephen
Greetings!
We are pleased to provide a stellar reference for McSpadden Homes. We began working with the team in 2017 and completed the construction of our new home in 2018. We found McSpadden’s professionalism unmatched in every area of the process. They clearly articulated expectations and exceeded every one. Three years later, we could not dream of working with any other team on such an important endeavor. We are still in love with our beautiful home and grateful for the workmanship of the highest quality. It does not get much better than McSpadden Homes and we would recommend anyone to trust them and their expertise.
Jenna
We are still blown away by how seamless this process has been so far and are excited to get to the next phase. Again, we are so thankful for this team’s amazing work so far!
John
I have built 2 homes with McSpadden – The goal is perfection, but they ALWAYS show up to make anything perfect that slips.
VJ and Jess
Jason,
Jess and I wanted to thank you again for helping us manage the reno project so effectively! Your positive attitude and “client-centric” approach put us at ease and was reassuring that work would be completed to our liking. We appreciate your excellence and eye for details!
Thank you!
Ted and Mary Ellen
It is hard to believe it has been well over 3 years since I called your office that early July weekday morning.
We very much appreciate all of the help and cooperation from you and everyone in the office. Deb and Donna were always ready and available when needed and they were a big help throughout the process. Though he came on about halfway through, we especially appreciate Tim. His ''can-do"" attitude, outstanding organization skills, vast construction experience and customer-oriented approach made him the ''right man"" for your superintendent position.
Overall, we are very pleased with the house and our choice of builder.
If you ever need a testimonial or a reference please don't hesitate to point them in our direction.
Chris
Doug,
You have been a great partner on this journey. Your guidance was invaluable and you delivered a wonderful product.
Thank you to Laur for the gift basket. People who have known us for 30 years could not have done better.
Lastly, Mike is all world, which you already know.
With that said, we would like to express our appreciation to Mike and welcome your recommendations.
I assume the best way to say “thank you” to you is to help you sell more homes, which we are happy to do.
Ann
Dear Doug and everyone at McSpadden Homes
Just a simple way of saying “Thank You” for helping us transform our vision into a beautiful reality.
Cory
Very professional on all fronts. Easy to recommend McSpadden!
Bill
Dear Donna and All,
Thank you so much for the Thanksgiving wishes! We will be celebrating our first Thanksgiving in our new house with all of our family (on Friday, not Thursday - one of us has to work on Thursday!).
We certainly have much to be thankful for including our beautiful new home and the people that helped build it!
Thank you!
Have a terrific holiday!
Cory and Anna
Thank you for the wonderful house warming gift! Everything in it was thoughtful and delivered in a beautiful basket. We cant wait to have you over to the new house! In the meantime we’ll be making cakes, drinking wine and visiting Daniel Stowe Thanks for everything and your help on everything.
Ken and Teri
Thank you to the entire McSpadden Team! Thank you for building us a magnificent quality forever home. The team is dedicated to seeing to every detail and we so appreciate your drive to perfection. Thank you again to the entire team!
Helen and Bill
To the Entire McSpadden Team!
It has been quite the path to pull this house out of the mud to it’s beauty today.
We especially thank Mike and Jason for their help and dedication to this beautiful home.
Let the moving in begin!
MW
Doug,
Just a quick note to congratulate you on the work on Lot 40. We walked it the other night - what a unique plan with incredible features.
That will be a fantastic home in the neighborhood - we love watching it take shape.
Adam
MCH Team,
Thank you all, sincerely, for all of the contributions you have made along the way, especially the many above the call of duty. You have been tremendous to work with; you do incredible work, and we couldn’t be more excited to begin to enjoy the fruits of your labor (haha).
Have a wonderful weekend, and we will see you on Monday.
THANK YOU.
Pam and Jim
Dear McSpadden Team,
Thank you so much for the beautiful framed picture of our house! We just love it! We also love our house! Thank y’all so much for everything.
We miss seeing everybody – Please stop by!
Cam and Alex
We are very excited and thankful that we have found the right to team help build our dream home!
Tonya and Stephen
Dear Team,
As we travel to Charleston today, all of you are on our minds. Jane Ann and Katie are still hard at work and we are grateful for them. Each of you likely have “to do” files on your desks with our name on it too. But, it feels like a good time to say “thank you.”
Yesterday was monumental. Thank you for the thoughtful gift and we can’t wait to hang it on the wall. We are SO proud to be your first Signature Home clients. Collaborating with each of you to build our beautiful home has been pure joy for us. We’ve learned SO much about architecture, construction, design, landscaping, and budgets. Most of all, we can even understand Mike and Jason’s “construction jargon” emails when we read it the first time! 😄
Seriously, Team McSpadden is a true example of service excellence in every respect. We know the day-to-day pursuit of excellence comes at a cost. As you grind, be reminded of God’s words in Matthew 5:16. Each of you are extraordinary in what you do and we’ve witnessed it over and over again. We shared our gratitude with Doug, Mike, Jason and Jane Ann yesterday, but could not rest until we extended our hearts to the rest of you. David even found me on Facebook and sent us a message of well wishes; that’s uncommon.
We are so happy that we will always be a team. Please feel free to contact us if potential clients would like to view our home. When final selections arrive late summer, you’ll be invited to a “team party” so we can celebrate this great accomplishment together. We hope Abby can join us too. 😊"
Ben and Lorna
Dear Doug, Travis and Laurie,
Ben and I were talking the other day and as we are trying to do a small remodel on a place in John’s Island, SC and what we came to decide is that we truly appreciated the level of care, attention and craftsmanship that you all put into building our house in Gastonia.
We love it more and more by the day. We love that you back the work up and we love that you tried in every way to meet our needs.
The further down the road we go in this home, the more we appreciate you and what McSpadden Homes stands for, and I thought you’d like to know that.
Anyway, after two and a half years of complete comfort, I can finally write you a rave review. We were so lucky we came to you. Your process is flawless, your team is the best and this area is lucky to have a quality builder like you.
Stephen and Tonya
We would like to share a “warm and fuzzy” with you. Last evening was a lot of fun meeting neighbors, learning who lives where, and about the experiences they’ve had thus far. Each time we told people that you are our builder it was followed by expressions of approval. We heard comments like, “you made the right decision”, “we wish we would have built with them”, “they deliver a quality product”, “they’re awesome”, etc. While this was not new information for us, we were grateful to hear our non-McSpadden neighbors take notice and make these affirmations.
We’re sure that some days are not as fun as others, but we hope reminders like these are helpful. We really appreciate what you do and the way you do it. It matters.
Jim and Candace
We started with a simple drawing on the back of Chinese wallpaper and journeyed to where we are today. Doug, you and the team took our dreams and ideas to create our forever home. Thank you for making it happen.
Guys you got this!
Anonymous
Thank you Jane Ann. We are feeling GREAT about the choices. You’ve simplified the design process and made it a lot of fun!
Susanne and Bill
We are loving our new home and neighborhood and look forward to having you over for a cocktail on the porch as soon as the weather cooperates!
Kim
Wanted to make sure y'all know that everyone one at McSpadden has been "Great" to work with….. As far as we are concerned, your business is top notch and finishes top notch work. Even in times of conflict Doug's response was terrific and we couldn't ask for more. We are very proud of our new master suite and are pleased with all the finishing decisions…
Bill and Debbie
Travis,
We really want to thank you for all the special attention you have given us through this process.
Thanks so much for all you do!!
Ed
I met a woman last night who you must have built a house for around 25 years ago….she was still proud her house was built by McSpadden.
Demetrius
Hello, Doug. We just wanted to reach out to thank you so much for meeting with us last week to overview your company and to share our vision of our new home. I can’t say enough about how well pleased we were with your level of knowledge, and your integrity and character. McSpadden Custom Homes is by far the most professional and thorough builder we have ever encountered.
Linda
We are very pleased with how it all came out together. Everyone who has seen it to date, is drooling and they all think Reg has a wonderful 'man cave'--wrong! lol. Surprisingly, the cork floors are the first thing everyone notices.
All of you have been so friendly, professional and committed to our project. Our gratitude--
Whenever you want to drop by, just call so one of us is home.
Lorna
……Thanks so much! And again. I really want you all to know how much we love the work you all do and the pride you all take in the work your crews do. We are soooooo happy, that circumstances brought us back to McSpadden Builders. You are the best. And we ‘will tell it on the mountain over the hills and everywhere!’
Ben and Lorna
Doug and Laurie,
You both have done so much to help us with our home. We cannot thank you enough.
Doug, your vision was perfect and you accommodated every whim. And I know Laurie works very hard behind the scenes to make everything fall into place. We love what you have done for us. It was a flawless operation.
Debbie - Thank you for always being there and for everything you do to make this project as easy on us as possible. Thanks for always having a smiling face when I come in. That means a lot. You are a great asset to the McSpadden team.
Travis - Thanks so much for leading our project with such professionalism.
We appreciate the knowledgeable suggestions, for indulging our preferences and for allowing us, to the best of your ability, to make us feel at home in our home. You are the best!
Linda
We are extremely pleased with what you have accomplished so far and have total faith in you. Doug picked the perfect person to supervise our basement!
Debbie
….Thanks so much for your CONTINUAL amazing work and attention to detail on this house!!!
Katie and Jim
Dear Doug, Laurie, Deb and Chris,
Let me express my happiness about the way the piano room and the foyer turned out. It is better than we ever expected! I cannot thank Chris and his team enough. Everything was top notch, done in a timely fashion with really awesome results. It’s like a whole new house! How fun!!
Thank you again for everything you each did to make this a great experience!
Mick
I am getting so many nice comments on the building. Thank you for your work. Travis is such a calm and efficient person. He makes the complex simple and never, at least on the outside, lets others with less calm and cool rattle him. I am very pleased with the building and appreciate what you have done.
Ria
The house inspector's comment to me, when going out my beautiful door, after his extremely thorough review:
"I’ve inspected NBA stars, NFL stars, and Russian Mafioso's houses and this is the prettiest house with the least amount of issues that I've ever seen."
Kudos to you guys - so glad I partnered with you. You're the best!
Thank you!
Ria
I had to go to the River Hills guard house to get in this weekend.Just wanted to let you know that the guard told me with enthusiasm and great sincerity - "that is a BEAUTIFUL house!"Made me feel terrific - so I need to thank you for that!!
Natalie
Thank you for the best, most sincere and ongoing service I’ve ever had. I tell everyone I know about you and your awesome team. I’m not kidding… I love our home and I love our relationship and I’m so grateful to you. God is so good and he has blessed us both greatly and I’m so glad we share His love with others. You are such an inspiration to me and I am so happy your business is booming!! Happy Summer my friend!
Natalie and John
Doug and Laurie,
Thank you a gazillion times for making our dreams come true with our new home! We are so grateful for such a fabulous building experience and an amazingly smooth construction process. You have superb people and your optimistic Christian attitude towards everything really makes the difference between ordinary and extraordinary!
We appreciate you both so much and we look forward to sharing many more memories in the future together.
Bob
Doug,
That is great – let’s move forward– this is exactly why I sent you the email. I understand fixed costs in a small business and you have been transparent throughout the process.
I’ve never felt like you are trying to take advantage of a situation which makes Sara and I very comfortable. That is why we want you to see the project through. I deal with very similar situations (not on quite the financial scale you do).
Bob
I really don’t have any complaints or concerns about the work that has been done. I have been truly amazed/stunned by how things have come together and the quality of the work. It has been nice that as a company/contractor you guys are so open and allow us to watch every step. This really gives you peace of mind. My dad has commented multiple times on the quality of the work (he periodically checks on the site). Anyway, thank you again for all the hard work. Your team is amazing – and I am happy to pass that on to future/perspective home builders.
David and Joyce
Loving our new home and living in North Carolina!
Richard and Pat
…You and your team have been a “God sent”. It is obvious he calls the shots in your business, and we are sure he is the reason for your success. Thank you for your patience, kindness and hard work….and the lovely basket!! We will miss you all!
Joyce
We are enjoying our new home – though we are far from settled! The quality and attention to detail that McSpadden Homes provides is so appreciated and so evident!
Thank you so very much.
Juta and Ned
Doug,
Thank you for wrapping us with your love and your many gifts and talents. As you wrap yourself with this blanket, may you feel the warmth from the journey we have experienced with you. We will hold memories of building our home in a very special place in our hearts.
Lori
Mike,
We think everything is exceeding our expectations. It looks fabulous! We can’t wait to be moved in and settled, finally living that North Carolina lake life I’ve dreamed of all these years.
Thank you for being so helpful and making this process all fall into place.

Thank you so very much Jason, Connor and Ketta for a very productive and fun day (at least for me). The meeting with the landscapers was very impressive. Loved all their ideas…and as always appreciated everyone’s valuable input!.
The pool was a surprise but I’m also confident that Tom will be just as surprised when he realizes how much he likes it 🙂.
Ketta - thank you as always for your patience with me modifying things and with your expert design advice - I truly appreciate all of your assistance!!
Jason - we are so genuinely appreciative of the time you spent with us walking through the house ‘pre electrical’ and especially for saying you could lower the kitchen window!!! You made my day!! That was HUGE for little me! THANK YOU!
And, our future grandkids will thank your for helping us think through the current attic space!And btw I wrote just a few pieces of scripture on posts in case I don’t get back down here before dry wall however I’m hoping to add more.
Most sincerely,
Jeannie and Michael
Connor,
I just wanted to let you know how impressed Michael and I are with the building process this far. I especially want to give major kudos to Jason. His communication and attention to detail have been outstanding. He is professional, responsive and we feel very confident in his ability to deliver an excellent product – we are so excited about our new home!

We are so happy that we will always be a team. Please feel free to contact us if potential clients would like to view our home. When final selections arrive late summer, you’ll be invited to a “team party” so we can celebrate this great accomplishment together. We hope Abby can join us too. 😊"
Stephen and Tonya
We would like to share a “warm and fuzzy” with you. Last evening was a lot of fun meeting neighbors, learning who lives where, and about the experiences they’ve had thus far. Each time we told people that you are our builder it was followed by expressions of approval. We heard comments like, “you made the right decision”, “we wish we would have built with them”, “they deliver a quality product”, “they’re awesome”, etc. While this was not new information for us, we were grateful to hear our non-McSpadden neighbors take notice and make these affirmations.
We’re sure that some days are not as fun as others, but we hope reminders like these are helpful. We really appreciate what you do and the way you do it. It matters.
Jim and Candace
We started with a simple drawing on the back of Chinese wallpaper and journeyed to where we are today. Doug, you and the team took our dreams and ideas to create our forever home. Thank you for making it happen.
Guys you got this!
Bill and Debbie
Travis,
We really want to thank you for all the special attention you have given us through this process.
Thanks so much for all you do!!
Linda
We are extremely pleased with what you have accomplished so far and have total faith in you. Doug picked the perfect person to supervise our basement!
Debbie
….Thanks so much for your CONTINUAL amazing work and attention to detail on this house!!!
Mick
I am getting so many nice comments on the building. Thank you for your work. Travis is such a calm and efficient person. He makes the complex simple and never, at least on the outside, lets others with less calm and cool rattle him. I am very pleased with the building and appreciate what you have done.
Ria
The house inspector's comment to me, when going out my beautiful door, after his extremely thorough review:
"I’ve inspected NBA stars, NFL stars, and Russian Mafioso's houses and this is the prettiest house with the least amount of issues that I've ever seen."
Kudos to you guys - so glad I partnered with you. You're the best!
Thank you!
Ria
I had to go to the River Hills guard house to get in this weekend.Just wanted to let you know that the guard told me with enthusiasm and great sincerity - "that is a BEAUTIFUL house!"Made me feel terrific - so I need to thank you for that!!
Bob
Doug,
That is great – let’s move forward– this is exactly why I sent you the email. I understand fixed costs in a small business and you have been transparent throughout the process.
I’ve never felt like you are trying to take advantage of a situation which makes Sara and I very comfortable. That is why we want you to see the project through. I deal with very similar situations (not on quite the financial scale you do).
Bob
I really don’t have any complaints or concerns about the work that has been done. I have been truly amazed/stunned by how things have come together and the quality of the work. It has been nice that as a company/contractor you guys are so open and allow us to watch every step. This really gives you peace of mind. My dad has commented multiple times on the quality of the work (he periodically checks on the site). Anyway, thank you again for all the hard work. Your team is amazing – and I am happy to pass that on to future/perspective home builders.
Lori
Mike,
We think everything is exceeding our expectations. It looks fabulous! We can’t wait to be moved in and settled, finally living that North Carolina lake life I’ve dreamed of all these years.
Thank you for being so helpful and making this process all fall into place.
James
Hi Tim,
We covered a lot today. The little details make all the difference. Thanks for your patience with us! Days like today reinforce our choice choosing you as a partner to build the home we want to be our home for life.
Regards,
Brian
Hi Everyone,
This is so great! Even better than what I had in mind. Looks a lot less like a big two-story block and adds so much balance and unique touches/depth/dimension, etc. I can’t wait to see as we start to add different materials along the way to enhance certain aspects even more. Margo’s first words were “oh wow, I really love this.” I of course looked at it 10 times and loved it more and more each time. I really don’t think there would be any changes to this but just one or two ideas to run by you guys next week. I’d say on our end, it’s definitely a 99% perfect look!
The upstairs flow looks awesome to get the two beds and baths up there. Smaller rec room still should be plenty of space for kids and their future friends as a cool hang out spot. Love the fact that one bathroom still has access from the hallway for when the kids friends are there.Understood on the other notes. This won’t affect any of the exterior look so it makes sense to focus on them next week. The bump out on the garage and master suite looks great and definitely add to the useful space we have in mind. We’d love to set up a call to discuss early next week and maybe even in person next Friday assuming the rest of the first-floor changes will be done.
Thank you,
Cam and Alex
We are very excited and thankful that we have found the right to team help build our dream home!
Anonymous
Thank you Jane Ann. We are feeling GREAT about the choices. You’ve simplified the design process and made it a lot of fun!
Demetrius
Hello, Doug. We just wanted to reach out to thank you so much for meeting with us last week to overview your company and to share our vision of our new home. I can’t say enough about how well pleased we were with your level of knowledge, and your integrity and character. McSpadden Custom Homes is by far the most professional and thorough builder we have ever encountered.
Michael and Jeannie
Dear Everyone at McSpadden Homes,
Michael and I cannot thank you enough for our beautiful dream home. From the beginning of the process through the exchanging of keys, it has been a seamless and positive experience. Everyone has been so helpful and professional. We will be singing your praises! We would like to invite you all over once we get settled for a housewarming party so you can all see the fruit of your labor. Again, we are so thrilled and ecstatic to start enjoying our home.
Lynn and Mike
"We want to thank you for the beautiful home we are moving in to. It has been a long road with our crazy challenging lot. We want to thank you and the team for the very well-structured team you have put together. From the first call with Donna (so sweet and helpful) to Mike J, dealing with us and all the trades.
The whole team has put in countless hours from Developing the dream with Doug and Tim (both so open to my visions and ideas😊) to Ketta guiding us through hundreds of decisions, and millions of questions on selections of every detail.
Once we were unleashed on Mike J, hopefully with forewarning from the rest of the team, we definitely kept him close, with endless questions. Trying to balance us and the trades was no easy task !
And all the rest of your staff, whether Laurie patiently dealing with us understanding our payments, Connor jumping on board, and sharing new ideas. You have built a strong team. I am hoping that all of you will be able to plan a visit when Mike J is back. We would love that.
I am sharing a video I made a month ago for my family.
And a few pictures with some furniture in.
I will have to get one of the dining room today. It looks great.
So appreciate everything.
Tara and Mary
Doug:
Thank you for the note.
Have to say that you and your team built us an absolutely beautiful house. WE LOVE IT!.
I always envisioned one day building our final house on the water, and this ended up being spectacular.
The entire process for us was seamless.
Working with Tim and Ketta initially was so easy and fun! Even when we were stressed out and couldn’t decide we looked to them both to help out. Their guidance and insights were amazing and spot on.
Then to actually making the magic happen, Mike was flawless. He truly knows what he is doing and makes sure there is excellence in the folks working on the house.
Absolutely LOVED working with this team of folks. I feel we really have made friends and people we want to continue to hang out with in the future.
We are happy to share our experience with others like we have recently, so please feel free to let us know how we can help.
Thank you for the housewarming basket, wine and GC to Drift. We definitely can’t wait to use it all.
Cari
Doug,
We so appreciate everything you and your team have put into our beautiful home! We both commented this morning how exciting it is as we get settled and it still hasn’t sunk in that we are here in our forever home!
All the details from choosing the right lot for us, the placement on the lot (it is perfect and the view is awesome) and the various alterations we made during design make this home so amazing. You, yourself, were such a wonderful guide through those early steps and please know how much we appreciate your guidance and your patience. Jason took it from there and turned it into more than we imagined.
Also a big kudos to Tim and Ketta and the rest of the Team! The attention to detail and urgency that we unfortunately were facing came together nicely in the end. And the hard work has not gone unnoticed.
While I will miss our weekly or daily interactions with McSpadden, we hope to see you all in Hunts Point in the future building for other lucky neighbors. We definitely will reach out once we get settled, but in the meantime if you are driving by, please stop by just to say Hi!
Hope you enjoy your Sunday and have a great week ahead!
Thank you again
Cheri
Thank you so much Doug. I had a great experience with McSpadden and really enjoyed the process. Mike was awesome and we are very happy. 😃
Asa
Jenna and I are so thankful for each of you and are beyond blessed. We had a fantastic thanksgiving as a family in our new home!I hope each of you had a wonderful Thanksgiving as well and have a great week!
Debbie
We enjoyed working with you all, love our house and love to show it off! Thank you for making our dream come true!
Sean and Dana
McSpadden Homes,Thank you so much for everything during this process. We appreciate it more than you know.
Asa
Mike, you have been nothing short of exceptional throughout this entire process. Your level of communication, organization and execution has truly made our experience in building this house a joy. Jenna and I have so many friends that have nothing but horror stories about building their homes and it almost makes them sick when we start talking about how great our experience has been with you and this team.
Doug, Donna, Tim and Ketta,
we’re so thankful for all of your hard work as well. Each of you have been fantastic to work with and have made this project seem like a walk in the park. Genuine CARE is always easy to spot and it has been crystal clear that you all are dedicated and care about the work you do. Simply put, this whole team is 1st Class!
Jenna and I are absolutely thrilled with how everything turned out and can’t wait to make this house our home.
Debbie and Jim
Thank you so much for all of the wonderful gifts. We absolutely love the creel basket. It is the perfect addition to our “fishing” themed drop zone, I think I’ll use it to hold the dog leashes. I also found this vintage picture of an old, weathered fisherman that reminds me so much of Jim’s grandfather that owned the cabin and property, that we will hang near the drop zone. I attached a pic of Jim and his grandfather from 12 years ago when we visited him on one of his Lake Wylie properties. He was trying to give Jim the clothes he doesn’t wear anymore because they were the exact same size 😊
Our daughter drove in today to help us move and we made veal parmesan for dinner with the goodies from the baskets.
Thank you so much for your kindness. We could not have chosen a better builder. The little things we never gave a second thought to, the quality and beauty that is inherent in all of your builds – we are so very grateful for.
We were very overwhelmed today, in all the best of ways. We are enjoying the process of moving in slowly, but surely!
Tony
Yes indeed, the house looks amazing! We are so excited and thankful to have such a beautiful home to live in.
Everyone on the McSpadden team has been outstanding in helping us with the planning and execution, project management and design.
We are truly blessed and forever grateful to you.
Chris
Doug,
You have been a great partner on this journey. Your guidance was invaluable and you delivered a wonderful product.
Thank you to Laur for the gift basket. People who have known us for 30 years could not have done better.
Lastly, Mike is all world, which you already know.
With that said, we would like to express our appreciation to Mike and welcome your recommendations.
I assume the best way to say “thank you” to you is to help you sell more homes, which we are happy to do.
Ann
Dear Doug and everyone at McSpadden Homes
Just a simple way of saying “Thank You” for helping us transform our vision into a beautiful reality.
Bill
Dear Donna and All,
Thank you so much for the Thanksgiving wishes! We will be celebrating our first Thanksgiving in our new house with all of our family (on Friday, not Thursday - one of us has to work on Thursday!).
We certainly have much to be thankful for including our beautiful new home and the people that helped build it!
Thank you!
Have a terrific holiday!
Cory and Anna
Thank you for the wonderful house warming gift! Everything in it was thoughtful and delivered in a beautiful basket. We cant wait to have you over to the new house! In the meantime we’ll be making cakes, drinking wine and visiting Daniel Stowe Thanks for everything and your help on everything.
Ken and Teri
Thank you to the entire McSpadden Team! Thank you for building us a magnificent quality forever home. The team is dedicated to seeing to every detail and we so appreciate your drive to perfection. Thank you again to the entire team!
Helen and Bill
To the Entire McSpadden Team!
It has been quite the path to pull this house out of the mud to it’s beauty today.
We especially thank Mike and Jason for their help and dedication to this beautiful home.
Let the moving in begin!
Adam
MCH Team,
Thank you all, sincerely, for all of the contributions you have made along the way, especially the many above the call of duty. You have been tremendous to work with; you do incredible work, and we couldn’t be more excited to begin to enjoy the fruits of your labor (haha).
Have a wonderful weekend, and we will see you on Monday.
THANK YOU.
Pam and Jim
Dear McSpadden Team,
Thank you so much for the beautiful framed picture of our house! We just love it! We also love our house! Thank y’all so much for everything.
We miss seeing everybody – Please stop by!
Susanne and Bill
We are loving our new home and neighborhood and look forward to having you over for a cocktail on the porch as soon as the weather cooperates!
Kim
Wanted to make sure y'all know that everyone one at McSpadden has been "Great" to work with….. As far as we are concerned, your business is top notch and finishes top notch work. Even in times of conflict Doug's response was terrific and we couldn't ask for more. We are very proud of our new master suite and are pleased with all the finishing decisions…
Linda
We are very pleased with how it all came out together. Everyone who has seen it to date, is drooling and they all think Reg has a wonderful 'man cave'--wrong! lol. Surprisingly, the cork floors are the first thing everyone notices.
All of you have been so friendly, professional and committed to our project. Our gratitude--
Whenever you want to drop by, just call so one of us is home.
Ben and Lorna
Doug and Laurie,
You both have done so much to help us with our home. We cannot thank you enough.
Doug, your vision was perfect and you accommodated every whim. And I know Laurie works very hard behind the scenes to make everything fall into place. We love what you have done for us. It was a flawless operation.
Debbie - Thank you for always being there and for everything you do to make this project as easy on us as possible. Thanks for always having a smiling face when I come in. That means a lot. You are a great asset to the McSpadden team.
Travis - Thanks so much for leading our project with such professionalism.
We appreciate the knowledgeable suggestions, for indulging our preferences and for allowing us, to the best of your ability, to make us feel at home in our home. You are the best!
Katie and Jim
Dear Doug, Laurie, Deb and Chris,
Let me express my happiness about the way the piano room and the foyer turned out. It is better than we ever expected! I cannot thank Chris and his team enough. Everything was top notch, done in a timely fashion with really awesome results. It’s like a whole new house! How fun!!
Thank you again for everything you each did to make this a great experience!
Natalie and John
Doug and Laurie,
Thank you a gazillion times for making our dreams come true with our new home! We are so grateful for such a fabulous building experience and an amazingly smooth construction process. You have superb people and your optimistic Christian attitude towards everything really makes the difference between ordinary and extraordinary!
We appreciate you both so much and we look forward to sharing many more memories in the future together.
David and Joyce
Loving our new home and living in North Carolina!
Richard and Pat
…You and your team have been a “God sent”. It is obvious he calls the shots in your business, and we are sure he is the reason for your success. Thank you for your patience, kindness and hard work….and the lovely basket!! We will miss you all!
Joyce
We are enjoying our new home – though we are far from settled! The quality and attention to detail that McSpadden Homes provides is so appreciated and so evident!
Thank you so very much.
Juta and Ned
Doug,
Thank you for wrapping us with your love and your many gifts and talents. As you wrap yourself with this blanket, may you feel the warmth from the journey we have experienced with you. We will hold memories of building our home in a very special place in our hearts.
Lynn and Mike
Good morning,
I’ve been thinking of all of you and praying that life is treating you well. I’m sure you’ve been busy helping families create their dream homes.
As we have settled in over the last year or so in our home, Mike and I wanted to let you know how grateful we are for all the hard work, care, and dedication your team put into making our vision a reality. We are thankful every day for this beautiful home and the special place it has become for our family and loved ones.
We have already created so many wonderful memories here, and we know there will be many more to come. As we reflect on this year we also remember Doug with gratitude we know he was dealing with difficult health issues as he worked to complete our home We remain grateful for his vision, insight and knowledge he brought to us and to his company Especially how he truly cared for each family he worked with It is wonderful knowing you all carry on his work
Thank you for the role each of you played in bringing our dream together.
May you all be blessed with peace, happiness, and the satisfaction of knowing that your work truly makes a difference in people’s lives.
Tara
We absolutely love our house. The entire McSpadden team is amazing to work with and are some of our friends today. Mike always ensured our house was made with the highest quality. Ketta and Tim were so helpful in the process and couldn’t have done it without all three. The mastermind and visionary – Doug – saw it all from the beginning and we still have his hand made drawing!
Chris
Doug and Mike,
We hope you are doing well. We just closed on the new home, which will be great, but it confirmed what I told K when we sold NC, “That’s the best constructed home we will ever own”. You guys set the bar on quality, attention to detail, and personal touch.
Chris
Doug,
Our move from NC was such a flurry of activity that I don’t believe I shared a comment I made to K while we were driving away. I said “that is the best constructed, highest quality home we will ever own”.
I hope you are well. Our best to Mike.
Chris
You certainly built a special one with this home and everyone, from the photographers to the appraisers to subs, have commented on the design, quality of construction, lot placement, etc.
Rob and Karen
Tim,
Many times when we are sitting around the pool, screened in porch, we say how fortunate we were to have you and Jason on point for the build of our lovely home. You guys and the entire McSpadden team were awesome, top quality, easy to work with and always felt you had our best interest and most important have developed a friendship.
PS we do miss the weekly updates
Ann
We love everyone at McSpadden and we treasure the relationship that was forged alongside the house building. We saw some dirt moving around Lot 39 and we are excited to see what’s going to get built.
Tonya & Stephen
Greetings!
We are pleased to provide a stellar reference for McSpadden Homes. We began working with the team in 2017 and completed the construction of our new home in 2018. We found McSpadden’s professionalism unmatched in every area of the process. They clearly articulated expectations and exceeded every one. Three years later, we could not dream of working with any other team on such an important endeavor. We are still in love with our beautiful home and grateful for the workmanship of the highest quality. It does not get much better than McSpadden Homes and we would recommend anyone to trust them and their expertise.
John
I have built 2 homes with McSpadden – The goal is perfection, but they ALWAYS show up to make anything perfect that slips.
Ted and Mary Ellen
It is hard to believe it has been well over 3 years since I called your office that early July weekday morning.
We very much appreciate all of the help and cooperation from you and everyone in the office. Deb and Donna were always ready and available when needed and they were a big help throughout the process. Though he came on about halfway through, we especially appreciate Tim. His ''can-do"" attitude, outstanding organization skills, vast construction experience and customer-oriented approach made him the ''right man"" for your superintendent position.
Overall, we are very pleased with the house and our choice of builder.
If you ever need a testimonial or a reference please don't hesitate to point them in our direction.
Cory
Very professional on all fronts. Easy to recommend McSpadden!
Ben and Lorna
Dear Doug, Travis and Laurie,
Ben and I were talking the other day and as we are trying to do a small remodel on a place in John’s Island, SC and what we came to decide is that we truly appreciated the level of care, attention and craftsmanship that you all put into building our house in Gastonia.
We love it more and more by the day. We love that you back the work up and we love that you tried in every way to meet our needs.
The further down the road we go in this home, the more we appreciate you and what McSpadden Homes stands for, and I thought you’d like to know that.
Anyway, after two and a half years of complete comfort, I can finally write you a rave review. We were so lucky we came to you. Your process is flawless, your team is the best and this area is lucky to have a quality builder like you.
Ed
I met a woman last night who you must have built a house for around 25 years ago….she was still proud her house was built by McSpadden.
Lorna
……Thanks so much! And again. I really want you all to know how much we love the work you all do and the pride you all take in the work your crews do. We are soooooo happy, that circumstances brought us back to McSpadden Builders. You are the best. And we ‘will tell it on the mountain over the hills and everywhere!’
Natalie
Thank you for the best, most sincere and ongoing service I’ve ever had. I tell everyone I know about you and your awesome team. I’m not kidding… I love our home and I love our relationship and I’m so grateful to you. God is so good and he has blessed us both greatly and I’m so glad we share His love with others. You are such an inspiration to me and I am so happy your business is booming!! Happy Summer my friend!
