Lakeland Homes left a lasting impression on us when building our dream home.

We can truly say they are a custom home builder that upholds their values and cares about their clients. In our opinion, they are distinguished by the characteristics of Trust, Commitment and Quality.

Trust

- Anyone who considers building their dream home seeks out a builder they can trust. Building a home can be overwhelming with all the planning and decision-making required. Lakeland Homes established an excellent rapport with us from the onset, managed the project professionally and respected timelines which created a pleasant and less stressful experience. We can say with confidence that they are a trustworthy custom home builder that will make your vision a reality.

Commitment

- Lakeland Homes was committed to us throughout the entire build and long after closing. They had constant communication with us and had key staff dedicated at each transition point which made for a seamless process. You can expect to customize plans with Andre at time of sales, to finesse details during construction directly with Mike the builder, to have direct access to the on-site foreman Nathan and support from the service manager Mike to follow through with any issues after closing. Lakeland Homes provided outstanding customer service whereby every team member was accessible at any time, responsive to any concern and saw it through to resolution.

Quality

– Everyone who visits our home is astonished by the amount of detail. Our custom ranch is fully finished offering us 5000 sq. ft. of elegance. Guests are in awe of every room! There are numerous finishing touches throughout our home such as intricate ceilings, doorways and windows accented with transoms, custom trim and so on. The quality of our home is attributed to the excellent craftsmanship of all the trades working for Lakeland Homes. We are fortunate that Lakeland Homes was an option when we chose a builder. Out of every custom home builder in Windsor-Essex County, Lakeland Homes was the builder who offered us luxury living at an affordable price allowing us to make our dream a reality.

We wish Lakeland Homes continued success!

Building a home was a big decision for us so choosing a builder who understood the needs and wants of our family became a priority.

We are so grateful to have been introduced to Lakeland Homes. From the initial meeting to discuss the design of home to the actual build process and after closing service, Lakeland never disappointed.

We were involved throughout the entire construction process and were very impressed with the ease of selecting all the interior and exterior components to suit our home. Lakeland was well organized, informative, and quick to respond to any questions or concerns we had. The most important factor of all is that we love our home and know it was built by a reputable company that stands behind their work.

The amount of compliments we have received on our home has been tremendous. People love our home as much as we do. Thanks for the great building experience!

Thank you Lakeland Homes

Our experience with Lakeland was a very positive one from the moment Andre and Angie meet us and showed us various lots and worked at accommodating our needs and helped us work within our budget, both were very warm, friendly and professional as well as caring in their presentation to us. Throughout the build Mike was very helpful and fair with changes we made and extras we added. Mike oversaw the entire build and everything was done with excellence and never lacked the personal touch. Lakeland closed on time and after moving in we had the normal minor problems as with any new home, but Lakeland quickly responded and fixed every detail to our highest satisfaction. We are very happy with our new home and the experience with Lakeland team and we recommend any one looking to build a new home to consider Lakeland homes.

What struck us immediately about a Lakeland home is the quality finish the homes have and the quality materials used for the price.

We started the search for our home builder by looking around at different styles of homes and then gradually going to open houses and comparing between the different companies. There are so many companies offering different products, it can be over whelming trying to decide what is best for you. What struck us immediately about a Lakeland home is the quality finish the homes have and the quality materials used for the price. The unique and attractive design of their homes combined with the expert finish and attention to detail was what instantly brought Lakeland Homes to the top of the list for us. We were looking for that home that suited our design tastes but also had the “WOW” factor when you walked in. In the beginning we visited the open houses and met with Andre on numerous occasions. During those visits we discussed design elements that were important to us and how we might incorporate them into one of their existing designs and I can’t stress enough how easy and flexible this process was, they truly are a custom home builder. Andre was more than accommodating with each request we made, detailing out how they would go about making the change and what that cost would be. Once we decided on a direction we moved forward into an agreement and began the build process of our home. Now at this point all of the horror stories you hear from other people who have built homes starts to creep into your mind…Did I make the right choice? Are we going to regret going with this company? Are we going to experience the same issues? There are a million questions you begin to ask yourself. At this stage I can honestly say I was optimistic but still proceeding with caution, well it didn’t take long for my cautious optimism to be replaced with a feeling of comfort and trust. From the very onset of the build process when we transitioned from dealing with Andre to working with Mike and his team (Nate and Mike O.) we felt involved, informed and appreciated as customers every step of the way.

Every stage from design, build, walkthrough, selections, through to buyoff we were encouraged to visit, consulted with and welcomed. The whole process was so organized and smooth (even when working through any issues) that you really can just sit back and trust that all will work out according to plan. Whenever we went to visit the build every single contractor engaged us in conversation and was more than happy to discuss what they were doing to the house; I had conversations with everyone from the foundation team, framers, roofers, flooring team etc., you feel like an active part of the process. Similarly when we met with the suppliers to make our selections they were friendly, accommodating and willing to help out Lakeland customers in any way they could. In fact to take that point a step further all suppliers and trades people had nothing but rave reviews for Lakeland Homes as a great company to deal with, so as a customer when you are hearing that from the people that work with your builder on a full time basis it gives you a lot of confidence that you have made the right choice. As our build came to completion (ahead of schedule I might add!) we started to see all of the planning and work come to fruition. At this point it becomes easy to just finish up and move on and maybe forget about the little details, move on to another build….well not when working with this team! They were as involved as ever in identifying and working on any little item that did not meet the Lakeland “standard” for quality and finish. When the time finally came to have our final walk through and sign off on our home we were excited but also proud, proud of the beautiful home that they had created for us but also proud of the decision we made to build with such a quality home building team; Lakeland Homes.

Our entire experience had the “WOW” factor in so many ways. Thank-you guys for building our family not only a new house but something we are very proud to call our HOME.

Customers for life,

Aaron and Dana

We want to take the time to extend our appreciation and gratefulness to the wonderful job Lakeland Homes did in constructing our new home.

Lakeland exceeded the level of customer service we were expecting. We want to thank Andre and Mike for their willingness to meet with us on many different occasions to either change or add to our home's detail.

To the Lakeland Homes Family,

It is with much pleasure that we write this letter. We would like to thank you personally for taking us through a very exciting journey as we built our “forever home”. Everything we desired in our new home was made a reality as we consulted with Andre and Mike from Lakeland Homes. From choosing a floor plan, to the finishing details; the personal attention we received went above and beyond what we could have ever expected. Deadlines were met and work was carried out according to schedule, and in a most professional way. The quality in our home reflects the character and workmanship of your employees and trades.

As we have settled into our new home, questions and small issues have come up, and your team has been right there for us. We have told everyone who has asked how pleased we are with our Lakeland Home, and will continue without hesitation to praise and recommend your company. Again, from our family to yours, Thank you! Respectfully,

The Salvati Family

Both Andre and Mike from Lakeland Homes were wounderful to deal with.

Any questions or concerns we had during and after the building process were addressed and/or taken care of immediately. Also all the Lakeland Homes staff and hired trades were friendly and prompt.

After a hectic few years of moving across the country, a baby, a wedding then baby #2 the last thing we thought we would be doing was building a home. But of course we did, we fell in love with a two storey design by Lakeland Homes.

A big thank you to Mike and all your staff for making the home building process a pleasurable, stress free moment in our lives.

It has been said that purchasing a new home will be among one of the most important decisions in ones life.

When having a new home built for you the need for trust and confidence in your builder and his trades is essential. As a Project Executive for one of the largest commercial contractors in Canada and a builder myself for the past 20 years, I understand this all to well. My wife and I have shared a wonderful experience working with Lakeland Homes and their second to none team of tradesmen over this past year building our new home in Lakeshore Township. It is my personal and professional opinion that positive relationships are what make projects successful in the end for all parties. Mike, Andre and their trades have successfully achieved this goal. The quality, service and price certainty has been delivered to us in our homes planning and successful completion.

Our journey started with Mike and Andre reviewing the plans for our home, then together developed the plan further to include increased living space within the home inclusive of the selection of finishes and specific design features. At each step of the process we found the Lakeland team were very respectful and attentive to our specific needs, suggestions, and inquiries extending their support and experience to assist us in finalizing decisions and expectations of the finished product. During the various stages of the building process, we were encouraged to work with the trades where we were witness to an exceptional level of quality workmanship, dedication, and respect for our vision from all.

In the end we moved into our home on time and on budget! From start to finish we have been very impressed with the continued attention and dedication to total customer satisfaction of Lakeland homes. It is always a pleasure when you can share in the pride of recommending good workmanship, trust and honesty of those that have done something for you that is a major part of your life's decisions. Both Ann and I find this easy to convey about Mike, his team and wonderful trades! Thank you for building our dream home.
