This is one of the best custom builders in the valley. If you won't quality work with attention to detail no better builder.

We have been in our new home just over a year now and we truly love the design we chose and the final look of our home. We were involved with the electrician to ensure outlets could be placed where we would have our TVs wall mounted in order to keep the cable hidden behind each TV in every room and they even placed a board where I showed them I would install the TVs which made it easy to mount since there was a solid board there install of having to search for the studs once the drywall was complete. We had our annual walk through in which we mention and showed the inspector the areas we noticed

Shoddy work on finishes inside and outside. Buried construction material in yard. Cheap finish material and cheap finish labor. Once house is yours he is impossible to reach for repairs and problems. Stay away from Don Bowles builders, your wallet and sanity will thank me

I have had the opportunity to work with Don many times representing clients as a real estate professional. Don does a spectacular job listening to the needs of the client and always has an open mind and willingness to fulfill those requests. He is always only a phone call away and takes initiative to be present on the job, not just behind a desk. The amenities he provides are well above the rest and offer a stellar representation of the attention to detail that go into his homes.
