Eric, David and Leesa Anderson of Anderson Homes, Inc., opened DreamMaker Bath & Kitchen of East Georgia in June of 2016. Their business office is in Swainsboro. They also serve the areas of Dublin, Statesboro, Vidalia, Metter, Millen and other surrounding areas.
They became interested in buying a DreamMaker franchise after they found the Code of Values™ were not just words on a wall, but rather implemented into everyday activities within the DreamMaker business setting. They have owned and operated Anderson Homes, Inc. since early 2000 in the Swainsboro area.
The family also lived in Texas, Colorado and Oklahoma before doing mission work in Singapore for 3 ½ years.
Eric became involved in the construction/remodeling industry early on.
“I worked with a block mason while I was in high school, doing extra school (homeschool) so I could work two days a week. I then worked with a roofer part-time and spent several years doing volunteer facilities maintenance/improvement work for a Baptist mission organization,” said Eric. He started his company and built his first spec home when he was 22. When the new home market slowed down, he and his dad branched out into remodeling. “We’ve been doing remodeling ever since,” Eric said.
In 1999, when his brother and he started a vinyl siding business, his sister, Leesa, joined on as the bookkeeper. She has maintained that position through the closing of that business and the opening of Anderson Building Co., which was later renamed Anderson Homes, Inc.
Their father, David, became involved in his son’s business in the early 2000s when Eric needed help. Although the elder Anderson said his construction skills were limited when he joined the business, he still wanted to help his son succeed. He now has years of construction experience and continues to be a vital part of the business.
“When our customers are very happy with our finished product, it brings a real sense of accomplishment,” David said.
DreamMaker of East Georgia has received numerous awards for both customer satisfaction and design. Hide

Easier Than Expected
Easier Than Expected - It was not easier than we expected because we have already used the Anderson’s before on a previous project and they were excellent to work with then as they were during this project. We will not use anyone else for our home projects except the Anderson and Dream Maker.

They listened to what I wanted and helped me think through choices that would benefit me the most.

We were very impressed with the way "The Anderson's" handled potential customers the first time calling. Very professional in addressing each step they would take, before the process of remodeling would even start. It was easy. We have never dealt with someone who made everything go so smooth and make choices so easy. It was very helpful in the way everything was presented to us. We are very pleased with all the work they have done for us. No complainants, no problems and no regrets. Just Happy, Happy Happy !!!!

We were very pleased with our experience with DreamMaker of East Georgia in our recent kitchen renovation. Eric and his team were easy to work with, accommodating our needs and our schedules. We are extremely satisfied with our new kitchen.

Professional & Organized
Professional & Organized - The entire project was handled professionally and was well organized.
Communication
Communication - Eric and his staff were constantly available to us for questions and concerns. The few changes in schedule or construction were communicated to us well in advance. It was an added courtesy that Sheldon texted me every morning when he was "on the way" so I would know exactly when to expect him.
Selections Process
Selections Process - Eric set up all the appointments for materials selection. In the material selections process, Eric was available to answer my calls. It was nice to be able to send him a picture of the materials I was considering while I was in the store/warehouse, and he was prompt with feedback. It was also nice to be able to view samples of the tile, cabinetry, faucets and hardware in the studio.
Construction Quality
Construction Quality - We are very pleased with the workmanship in this project. The carpentry work was meticulously done. Since we didn't do a complete renovation there was a lot of wood, tile, and stain matching to contend with. We are very satisfied with the results.
Schedule
Schedule - Once we decided to proceed with the project, the DreamMaker team worked us into their schedule. The project was finished within the projected completion date.
Problem Resolution
Problem Resolution - There were very few problems with our renovation, and most of those were because of our decision to change something mid project. Eric and his team were accommodating and willing to do what was necessary to resolve any issues within the original design scheme and contract, as a well as willing to add in a couple of last minute items.
Easier Than Expected
Easier Than Expected - We had postponed this project for years. I actually dreaded the renovation process. However, the project was completed quickly and cleanly. I was worried about being without a kitchen during the holidays, but I was only without it just a few days. I am so happy with my new kitchen!
Recognized Excellence
Recognized Excellence - Sheldon Freed was the lead contractor for our project. Sheldon's carpentry work was meticulously done and he was easy to work with. He was receptive to our questions and willing to make the minor adjustments and changes that we added as the project proceeded. He made the renovation process not only tolerable but enjoyable.
Additional Comments
Additional Comments - For anyone with multiple pets who worries about the safety of their animal friends, it was comforting that Eric and his team asked about my pets' safety. All materials were kept in a closed container during the project. They took extra caution to insure that my pets were safe, including "checking their vehicles" for any cats before they left in the afternoons!

Additional Comments - Our experience with the Dream Maker Company in Swainsboro, Georgia has been nothing short of spectacular. With the wonderful guidance of David and Eric Anderson and the amazing skills of Andrew Carpenter, we have a wonderful state-of-the-art kitchen that improves the value of our home but more importantly, makes our 1940’s kitchen an absolute joy to experience! From start to finish, the team at Dream Maker has been respectful, flexible, caring, professional, and fun to work with. Andrew appeared every day for six weeks and made it a pleasure to see the kitchen coming together. Eric’s management of the entire job and his calm personality made it a truly magical experience. We can’t say enough about the team and our finished product. We hope to have them re-do our bathroom in the coming year. If you are in their service area and need a renovation, give them a call. You’ll be pleasantly surprised with their work ethic and professionalism!

DreamMaker of East GA went above and beyond all of our expectations. From the initial contact to the closing of the project, we felt 100% confident in the process. Excellent products, service, support, across the board! Not only are you receiving the best products and service, but everything is made so easy! Zero stress, zero unanswered questions! The entire process is a breeze. The carpenters were top notch and a pleasure to work with. Their daily dust control and clean up made living there during the remodel a non-issue. I would 100% recommend them over and over again!

Recognized Excellence - Andrew and Sheldon! They both had many personal things come up during the remodel but they never stopped. They never complained if they had to work alone, they got in there and got the job done. Very trustworthy and excellent craftsmanship! They worked harder and more efficiently as a two man team, than most 5 man crews I've seen!

From initial contact to finishing up, the Andersons listen carefully, ask thoughtful questions, make suggestions, and do what they say they will do. The carpenters are knowledgable, communicate consistently and in a timely manner, and keep work spaces neat and clean. We were able to live and work in our home throughout the project, including being able to use the fridge and stove. We felt comfortable throughout the project especially as DreamMaker handles all the work; the only subcontractors involved were the plumbers and counter-top installers. Work doesn't begin until all the materials (appliances, finishes, etc) have arrived, so there is no waiting for anything during construction. Our complete remodel of kitchen and bath took five weeks with no time wasted.

Communication from carpenters Andrew and Sheldon was consistent and timely; they gave all the relevant information when we needed to make decisions, answered questions, and kept our home functioning throughout the project. Eric Anderson has been true to his word, tying up loose ends promptly so that we feel the project is actually complete.
