Purchased a home from Colden approximately 3 months ago and the whole experience was terrific. Being a first time home buyer there were alot of things that I was not aware of. Nonetheless Tom took his time to educate me throughout the process. The creative input which Tom allowed, gave me the opportunity to create my dream home. Tom was very flexible and accommodating to my work schedule. I truly enjoyed working with Colden homes.

Scott and I are so thankful we had the opportunity to work with Colden Home in building our beautiful home. Tom, Diane, and Josh demonstrated professionalism and clearly showed their passion towards the houses they built. They worked efficiently and were patient with us adding our own personal touches. We had constant communication which allowed us to know where we were at with the house and share in the excitement of the building process. We would highly recommend Colden Homes!

I had such an amazing experience building my new home in Lucan with Colden Homes. This was the first time that my fiance and I had built a brand new home, and I can't say enough good things about working with the team at Colden Homes (specifically Tom and Diane). They were both extremely knowledgeable, professional, and responsive and this made our experience very positive throughout the entire building process.
Tom and Diane were great at explaining the entire process of building a home, and were there to help us any time we had questions. They asked the right questions and were able to use their

Worked with Tom in building a new home in Lucan. I picked him over the other two builders as he was the most highly recommended by the developer (and real estate agents) of the subdivision. Unfortunately I can't understand why he was the most recommended based upon my own experiences, and the many complaints I have heard about him from numerous others. In the beginning, we did enjoy working with him. He was very honest and upfront and offered many suggestions, which helped to ease our minds, having never new built before. However, as the build progressed, everything took a turn. I think that

We had the pleasure of having Colden homes build for us this past year. Tom came highly recommended and he didn't disappoint. Between him and Diane they pretty much kept us on track. They were very receptive to our input and supplied us with many ideas. Deadlines were met and things went very smooth from start to finish. The quality of work is evident throughout our home .If your in the market for a new home we think Colden Homes would be a great choice as your builder.

Every day since we moved in, we say "wow, this is our dream home!" Tom and Diane worked with us to make our dream a reality and even made suggestions that we hadn't even thought of to make our house tailored especially to us. I particularly noted that Tom has a sense of pride in what he builds nor did he upcharge our changes. We made our selections quite early and since we had a big family event on the close date, Tom was willing to close on our house a week early. Although we don't plan on moving ever again, I wouldn't hesitate to buy from Colden Homes again.
