Home Builder

This is my second house that I have bought and the first for my girlfriend and I bought together. The first one was a full build with Excel Homes in Cochrane and I had major issues with Excel Homes. DO NOT BUY WITH EXCEL HOMES! I’m still waiting on warranty issues going on 3 years later! This house was at a stage where we could change a few things but most was already picked out. Barry definitely has the upper hand in the industry when it comes to caring for his potential home owners. Right away I felt like I can trust in what he can produce in quality and if you ever have any issue with the house. Barry really strives for a happy and satisfied customer. As soon as my girlfriend and I walked into his show home, we instantly noticed a big difference between the other builders in our area. The difference being not only design but quality and how well everything flowed throughout the house. One night, I stopped by Aquilla’s office for (I can’t quite recall) Barry showed me how he personally designs the houses and it blew my mind! This can show what needs to be changed in a house’s architecture but also show his customer what their new home will look like inside flirt plan and put in a 3D environment. I guarantee that any new home buyer who is looking for a custom home or just building one of their floor plans they provide to know exactly what they will be getting. This helps with people who have a hard time picturing a floor plan as a 3D image. If the timing was better then we would have utilized his tool and went with a totally custom floor plan, which is awesome to see a builder offer! Barry is always tweaking or designing new floor plans which can appeal/meet the needs to any potential new home owner. I have only had a few small issues with moving into my home. We never had a chance to do a pre possession walk through because of conflicting schedules, so we had to do it all at once. This made it hard to find any deficiencies because their possession walk through is very thoroughly done. So now I’m just finding little things with the house that required some attention. A missing window screen, couple dings in the walls, 2 of my bathroom sinks require some adjustment, and a chandelier needed to be lined up better and bulb issues with that fixture. Other than that nothing really too bad to say. Having said this no one is perfect but Barry definitely tries to be for his customer. He definitely listens and he had my issues taken care of within a timely fashion. Overall we are very very happy with our new home! I definitely will remember Aquilla homes for the future if/when we would ever build again. I highly recommend this builder to anyone! It’s nice to finally feel like you don’t get screwed over with a builder and that Barry cares for his customers, reputation, and the product he delivers to you and the neighbourhood.

Do NOT buy a home from these crooked basterds ! Trust me you'll regret it! These guys are the lowest of the lowest .

We have been in our new home for a year now and we couldn't be happier. From our first meeting to the time we took possession Eric and Lucie were fantastic. Through the entire process we were impressed on many levels, from the quality of workmanship to the high level of customer service provided by Eric himself. I would not hesitate to build another house with Eric's homes and have recommended them to my friends and family.

We recently purchased an acreage that required a substantial renovation to both the exterior and interior of the house. We received a referral for Diamond Valley Custom Homes and after meeting with Raham at our home and visiting some homes that Raham had renovated, we proceeded with our renovation project. We were extremely pleased with Diamond Valley Custom Homes. They handled all aspects of the renovation including demolition, construction and finishing. Raham and his staff were very professional, courteous, innovative and responsive. Our home was completed with a high standard of quality and on time as promised. We would be pleased to recommend Raham and his team to anyone considering a home renovation. -Bill and Lindsay Ward
