We chose Belmonte Builders because of their reputation. Throughout the process, Mr. Belmonte or Lindsay did not reach out to us, welcoming us to the neighborhood. I was very disappointed in this. The quality of the home is excellent. The trade people are lacking or terrible.
The quility of workmenship I find subpar. I feel like no one was over seeing this project.
Attentive sales people. Houses appear to be well designed and well built. Neighborhood is thoughtfully laid out. Building team is efficient and communicative.
We love our new home. Everyone we worked with along the way has been pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable.
The majority of our experience with Belmonte Builders has been positive. The selection staff was superb, attentive and responsive. We will gladly add the fifth star on the day we close and our kids go running through the house —making the long process all worth it!
Although Belmonte has a great reputation with solid construction outcomes, the communication and selections process has not gone smoothly. As the business grows with its largest community to date, the staff needs to grow to be able to accommodate the customer needs. Options were not listed or explained in detail before going to contract. In addition, during the sales process, the selections were held in a "secret" manner which doesn't help the prospective homeowner get a sense of the overall investment before going to contract.
House has just been started. Issues with pricing have been a problem
We were very pleased with the quality of the construction of our new home. Everything was completed as we had anticipated and the quality of the workmanship is exceptional.
Can not answer until process is complete.
I have already referred Belmonte Builders to a friend.
Belmonte Builders made the process of building a home as streamlined and easy as possible. Having all of the selections available in their showroom was very convenient and Samantha was a huge help , has a lot of patience and has an incredible eye for design. From start to finish , everyone we met with was an at the top of their game professionally From our initial meeting with Sharon who was a pleasure to work with , to walking the plot with Jeff who explained the timeline to us , we could not have worked with more invested professionals .
Everyone we have dealt with at Belmonte Builders have been very professional, and we have had no issues. Some of the things we wanted to add or do, they were very accommodating. There were a few things they couldn't do, but other than that they were all wonderful.
HAVE ALREADY.
Belmonte builds a great house!
We found Belmonte Builders to be excellent to work with throughout our purchase experience. They continue to be responsive to requests after closing in a timely and professional manner. We have also found that the individuals at the vendors they work with as part of the building process were also excellent.
We love our home bur there are times when communication could have been better.
The contract was fulfilled - house was delivered, as promised. However, the overall experience was terrible from a customer service perspective.
They have quality products.
It is a nice community, with friendly neighbors. The builders were very good and very patient, explaining to us first-time owner.
They are an outstanding quality builder.
Since we live out of state, our daughter has primarily had most of the contacts with Belmonte - ours has been through ZOOM meetings or over the phone. Our daughter has been very impressed with the quality of the homes they have seen built by Belmonte. We are so pleased we were able to purchase a new home in Sonoma Grove. All of our contacts with Belmonte personnel have been very favorable & thus far this has been a great experience!
Everything went very smoothly… Covid slowed things down but the end product, even though I had to make some changes turned out beautifully! I have had no issues, what more could I ask?
They take too long and keep changing the date they will be ready. It was January when we started and signed
I am excited about our new home. I love the floor plan and it meets most of our needs. Some of the upgrade charges are very high. But overall I would recommend BelmonteBuilders.
I was very satisfied. They had great customer service. They did quality work.
While we are generally happy with the construction, with this being our third custom home built we were a bit turned off by several obvious ways in which the builder used less than premium materials and products in an attempt to maximize profit. For example using 2x4 studs instead of 2x6 in the garage,and upcharging significantly and at times unreasonably for basic upgrades (e.g. railings, bathroom countertops). We were also disappointed with some of the standard finishes offered as commented further below.
At this point, it seems that the builder is interested in providing a quality product to customers.
Belmonte Builders is a professional service with good communications and realistic negotiations.
So far the response and support was great. Some delay due to materials and man power. But that's acceptable due to current situation.
It is hard to answer this question definitively because I am still in the process. Unfortunately, we are in a time where labor and supply are causing delays l (not the fault of the builder). I will be able to answer more fully when the home is completed.
Overall, I feel Belmonte is a quality builder.
It's a well built house, however, for the amount of money we spent we expected to get a few more ordinary things that they wouldn't even discuss with us. As a result, it caused more expense and headaches for us to get it done with a 3rd party. We had to get custom made doors because they would not allow us to substitute a pantry door. There was no discussion, just a "no."
We are very pleased with the quality of the construction to date and the responsiveness of the team.
The finish work was poor. Since I closed on the home at the end of July 2020, I have had various people back to fix damaged doors, touchup paint, re-tape ceiling, clean glue off the hardwood floors and more . 7 months since closing and crown molding is cracking from the ceiling, baseboards and window trim is cracking. Sheet rock and tile grout is also cracking, but I'm told this is normal.
Additional Comments - Overall our experience was wonderful. The staff were professional and extremely helpful. The entire process was straightforward and stress free. All of our questions were addressed in a timely fashion and construction remained on schedule from start to finish. Big Thanks to Peter Belmonte for taking his time to walk us through the process.
We would certainly recommend Belmonte Builders!. We worked with a lot of different people throughout the process - and every one on them was professional and patient explaining the options, the pricing and the timeline we were on.
Everyone on the Belmonte team has been a pleasure to deal with. Very professional and very organized. They know their business.
The experience has been outstanding. The house plans are great, the selection options were appealing and the process has been cohesive and pleasant. Belmonte has it down! Completely recommend them to friends and family.
They build a quality home!
This is our second Belmonte build and we have been very happy with the products and the process of building with them!
We would recommend Belmonte for all of our family and friends. We love the looks of our home and neighborhood. The attention to detail and how they stand behind their work is what made us choose them over other area builders. Tina Stanoski and Julie DeRossi are the absolute best and were extremely helpful in allowing us to make sound decisions that were not unrealistic and fit our budget.
We can't say enough great things about Belmonte Builders. Front start to finish (including now a few months after the closing) they have been amazing. They were extremely accommodating to our design requests and upgrades that were outside the norm. They were able to do everything remotely or schedule meetings for us to maximize our time when we came up as we live outside the area. Since we had a spring closing and some of the outside work wasn't completed, they have been working very hard to push their subs to get everything completed. No request or inquiry was ever unanswered, and they have been a pleasure to deal with. They really stand behind their work as do their subs.
The process was very comfortable with great communication throughout. Our site supervisor was fantastic, as was our selections coordinator.
At this point I would, certain parts of the process have been managed very smoothly but others we have felt rushed on. Again in Belmonte's defense we weren't the typical clients for this development as we were downsizing from a custom builder 24 years ago.
We are very happy.
A very capable, quality oriented builder who is flexible and customer focused from start to finish in the process and avoids surprises. Proof in pudding is final product that fully meets customer expectations and a nominal post-closing punch-list that they stand behind and address.
All representatives were informative, professional, polite, and responsive to all of our needs.
They made a lot of mistakes and are fixing them now.
We are very pleased with the home which we built. Belmonte Builders provided excellent service, guidance, and quality.
I am very happy with Belmonte Builders.
