PBC Design + Build

Construction Quality

Quality and workmanship is excellent

Communication

Their use of the Co-Construct software made communication very easy. At the same time there was always a record of all communications.

Quality design, materials and workmanship are strong suits that we tell our friends about.

Throughout the design and building process, Jon Henry was great to work with and his knowledge and expertise are excellent. Jon’s dedication to getting every detail right, in the home owner’s eyes, ensures that the end result is exactly what you hoped for. It was a pleasure to work with such professional people that really care about the quality of their work. Thanks, Patrick & Diane Young

We are very satisfied with out home. It is exactly what we wanted.

The team at PBC are remarkable. It is a collection of people who are at the top of their game and play well together to the benefit of the customer. In addition, their subs and suppliers also meet the PBC standards to deliver a quality home.

Additional Comments

This was the first house we have built. We felt completely supported throughout the entire process. We were very involved in the design process which started from a clean sheet of paper. PBC recommended our architect, Channing Glover, who was truly the right person for us. Our design project manager at PBC, John Jarvis, was a trusted ally, and we never felt rushed, moving the design along until we had what we wanted. Then the PBC designer, Chrissy Bonney, helped us find just the right finishes and kept us within our budget. Our construction project manager obsessed over the details (perhaps even more than we did) and kept the house moving until it was completed. Steve did an excellent job not just in managing the build, but in communicating with us as to schedule, questions and concerns. PBC promised us a great house, and then they delivered an even better one.

I would like to recognize Chrissy Bonney, John Jarvis, and Steve Scharf for their exceptional service. Those three were awesome.

Dave & Kyle were so patient w/ us, esp'y in the beginning of the project, they brought the design home. Dave demonstrated a tremendous sense of generosity & fair play on the project as a whole, but esp'y w/ the master bath sky light & vaulted ceiling. Kyle set our mind at ease w/ change order for our back porch, then thoroughly & patiently drove all the details to closure.Angela was a joy to work w/. She followed up & worked issues behind the scenes saving us anguish. Becky was flexible w/ payments (when $ had to moved around) & patient/understanding w/ my security concerns. Chrissy & Sebastian were so amazing, it's clear they genuinely cared. Chrissy's guidance & support was top shelf, not only was she incredibly creative, thorough & patient, she was fun & a total blast to work w/. It's hard to put into words how grateful we are having Sebastian as our project mgr. He was always cheerful, always patient, always followed up, always thorough & drove issues/concerns to closure. If Sebastian didn't have the answer, he found it.Plantation was very fair flexible on change orders.We like all the the Plantation peeps, they make us feel like we're part of their family.

An amazing group overall, the whole team was helpful from the first point of contact up until even now! They are a very dedicated and caring group!

I was satisfied with the everything. It was the second home they built for me.

Areas Of Satisfaction

I was most satisfied that it was exactly what it was supposed to be. The creativity - Dave was very creative at solving a couple of design issues. He figured out how to relocate the elevator. We wanted extra room and they figured out how to put that in there. They were very creative with their design to accommodate what we needed. They turned out to be very good pluses. It was what we were looking for. It turned out as good as we thought. The parts that were changed turned out to be very good.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Was really satisfied in all areas. Sebastian, Claire and Jody are all great and made this a wonderful experience. Just met Lucas at our Orientation and feel he will be great too.

Additional Comments

Overall we're very pleased with our townhouse and are happy we selected PBC to build our townhouse. We feel very fortunate we got to work with Dave Spetrino. You always hear horror stories of people building a home but we feel the whole PBC Team has been excellent! It was especially hard for us because we live 6 1/2 hours away so we weren't there to check on things often but Sebastian was excellent at keeping us informed and up to date as the project went on. Can't say enough about everyone at PBC. Excellent company!!!

Areas Of Satisfaction

I was most satisfied with the designer, the architect, and the quality of the workmanship.

Plantation Building did an excellent job building our home. They pay attention to detail and our request. We will enjoy this home for a long time.

Likely To Recommend

We have checked out lots of other new new homes around us while they were under construction and we feel like we have what others should aim for. For a beach community, the quality stands out high above the rest.

PBC built a truely spectacular home.Could not be happier with how it turned out

Recognized Excellence

No question that Dave got the ball rolling and acted as the single point of contact, but as soon as we were ready to build he brought in an outstanding team to support us throughout the year. Angela and Becky assisted with a variety of administrative/finance issues, Chrissy guided us through the selection process with great professionalism, and Doug became the go-to individual for not only the construction of the house, but became a trusted advisor and friend. Deb and I honestly consider the team as friends.

Great experience - use us as a reference any time!

Areas Of Satisfaction

We was satisfied with the quality of the work was which was stellar, and the project management specifically Steve. This was the first house we've ever built. Steve's expertise in construction, codes, and overall building detail gave us the confidence to move forward and trust plantation builders. Steve assured a stress free and pleasant working experience through strong communication skills including fast response time, and through follow through. We continue to be impressed with the quality of the construction. The subcontractors were exceptional, patient, and always polite, extremely clean and very focused on their work. Chrissy was also invaluable in helping with selections. Chrissy excelled at figuring out how to give us our dream selections and stay within our budget. A great example was the use of the expensive Brazillian blue tile.

In conclusion plantation builders far exceeded expectations. If we decided to build again we will use plantation builders again. We are happy to be references for potential customers.

Planning process was amazing. We were able to express what we needed and wanted in our house and the design was simple. I enjoyed working with our foreman -Will W as well as interior design Chrissy. I have been very pleased working with the entire Plantation team. I really appreciate all the attention to detail that Plantation puts into designing and building.

Purchased a model home that was built in Autumn Hall before deciding to build our own custom home. We loved the house so much in Autumn Hall we never looked for another builder.

I was very surprised by the ease of the process. And John Henry was outstanding and went above and beyond for what anyone would expect him to do. I lost my house and he is very professional and nice. It couldn't have been a better experience. I would do it all over again.

Thee were no areas at all where they fell short of expectations that I had.

The communication aspect is fabulous! We built our home while living elsewhere and only saw it in real life a few times. This was the best experience I have ever had building a home remotely! Sebastian was absolutely the best superintendent and kept us up to speed on everything!

Additional Comments

We really love the craftsmanship of our home and the ease of building with Plantation, I feel like our house is truly custom built to what we asked for. Everyone is great to work with at the company and so are the sub-contractors and vendors they chose. After looking at other builders in the area, such as Logan, the quality of what we have in our home is second to none!

Sebastian is terrific! He made building from afar a pleasure and a breeze. He is very, very, very responsive!!!! Chrissy was so knowledgeable and helpful in simplifying interior decorating design matters and all the detail decisions. Angela was always responsive any time we called!

Really liked working with Plantation Building Corp and I would do it again.

Areas Of Satisfaction

I can not say enough about how helpful and just generally enjoyable it was to meet with Chrissy and Sebastian as we built our home. Chrissy coordinated visits to vendors when I'd arrive from CT. She was invaluable when choosing an item that had staying power and was still stylish while not being trendy. I trusted her with color; she walked in snd picked out the master tile in 2 mins and she was exactly right. We'd talked enough for her to know just what i was looking for and that gives someone building from a distance great confidence. And need i mention not all builders have their own designer offering so much choice rather than picking from a package with 3 choices? Her working knowledge of the many moving parts of a house during construction was wonderful. Give her a raise! She makes building fun! Sebastian is an even-keeled guy that always returns his calls/emails and welcomed questions. He'd clear his schedule when we'd show up for visits. We were never rushed and were encouraged to share ideas. When i shared a picture of what i wanted our outdoor shower to look like, he had it built. Timely, efficient, friendly, sincere are all words that describe him. We are so glad he was our project manager.

Additional Comments

Dave gave us great advice on the design of the home. The design was simply terrific! We appreciate the attention to natural light, the cleverness of Kimberlie's "e-office", and the efficient use of every square foot--inside and out, upstairs and down. The design is where everything started--Dave thought about things we would not have known to talk about, but those things had a HUGE impact on the liveability of the house. The bar is phenomenal. No one who visits has any idea the house is only 24 feet wide--we have more than enough space. Thanks for a great concept that has become our great reality.

Areas Of Satisfaction

Our house is beautiful and we are grateful for all the efforts of the Plantation team. Attention after delivery of the house to the punch list has been great with RJ!!!!
