My husband and I have worked with Richard for 20 years. He built our home 20 years ago, added a second story to our home 10 years ago and remodeled our kitchen last year. We trust Richard will complete the project correctly. He always brings insight and ideas to help guide the project.

Richard Harp and his teamwere a pleasure to work with.My husband andIwanted to be involved in every step ofthe process of building our forever home.Richard and JDboth were open and available for our ideas.Also, with myhusband being in finance he wanted to see everything on paper. Richard was willing to sit down with us and go over every number. When it was all said and done, we finished 7% over budget, but admittedly the overages were self-inflicted on our part due to add-ons and upgrades. To Richards credit, without his relentless diligence in seeking out competitive

Coming from a first time home builder, Richard Harp made the process easier and more fun than we expected. He is extremely detailed, which allowed us to always know where we stood on the budget-to-actual expense. We are most proud of the end product. We consider our home to be superb quality, energy efficient, and a layout to meet our exact family needs. It is our dream home.
