Testimonials

"Let us start by saying "We loved our builder!" We built a slightly
modified Lakes 2 home. As first-time new home builders, we were concerned about the process of building. Brian made our experience easy and helped us through the steps. We are thrilled with the results Brigon Homes produced. Brian and his staff were very professional and extremely easy to work with. His building subs were all top notch and created a very well-built and comfortable home. There were no surprises either during or at the end of our build. Our final punch list was only 6 things and they were all completed within days of our closing. We love our winter home and highly recommend Brian and Brigon Homes."

"Hi Brian and associates, Denny and I wanted to thank you and your staff for the outstanding job everyone did building our home. We are so pleased beyond belief with the finished product. The end result was everything and more than we were hoping for. We receive so many complements from our friends when they come over. Your staff was so pleasant to work with during the whole process, especially since we were so far away in Maryland. Brigon Homes maintained the highest standards of quality, value, professionalism, safety, and cleanliness, and more importantly, a trustworthy company. The office staff showed a high level of responsiveness and respect to all our needs and to minor adjustments throughout the process. We appreciate everyone for taking the time to answer our questions and responding to our concerns. Also responding quickly to fix any problems after the jobs were completed. We will definitely recommend Brigon Homes to family and friends."

"Just love this model and the way we were treated by Brian was most impressive. Even reached out to thank us for visiting his model. True professional and we can't wait to build with Brian and his team!"

"Hi Brian,

Just a note to say, Denise and I are very happy with our new home.

Choosing Rotonda West was the hard part to build our new Florida home.

The easy part was choosing Brigon Homes. From our lot survey to when you handed us the keys to the front door, you made it an exciting and pleasurable process. You not only coordinated a fantastic job with all the sub contractors, you paid attention to every little detail in order to make our building experience a breeze. We feel Brigon Homes is a premier home builder, and can't say thank you enough for doing such a great job!"

Stepeh & Denise Risti ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Thank you for seeing that the work on our house is finished. I am very pleased with the result, and I have been complimented on how nice the house looks. The new steel doors and the hurricane shutters have given us a safety factor that we never had before. And of course the new roof and gutters are very nice as well as they were necessary. Then the new paint on the outside of the house makes people look twice and then look again. We are very happy with the whole job, and you and Ann and your contractors have been very pleasant and easy to get along with. Thanks again for a very good job. Keep up the good work!"

Don Mathewson ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"If you like service, respect and quality mixed with a good healthy dose of honesty and friendly attitude, Brian and his staff at Brigon Homes is the company to contact. We had a problem resulting from a job botched by a former contractor and the County gave us a list of engineers and construction companies etc. to call. After calling a few and getting all the wrong and expensive answers, I called Ann at Brigon Homes and she scheduled an appointment for Brian to come out and look at the job. He is such a great and knowledgeable guy. Brigon expedited engineering, permitting and repair of the problem. It was a small job for a home builder but we were treated as valued long-time customers. I would highly recommend Brigon Homes to anyone looking for a quality job from start to finish."

Eric and Jeanette Barnhill ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"After spending a year planning our lanai extension and interviewing almost a dozen contractors we finally found Bri-Gon Homes. From the moment Brian entered our home we knew we were dealing with a true professional. Once the contract was signed, the work progressed exactly as expected. We were very impressed with all the sub-contractors assigned to our project. There was never a question as to whether or not we were getting a top notch job.

Whenever we had a question we knew that we could count on Ann at the office to find the answer and get back to us in a very timely manner. This job was actually completed a couple of weeks ahead of schedule. If you are looking for someone to build your new home or help you remodel your existing home we highly recommend that you give Bri-Gon Homes a call.

Thanks to Brian, Ann and everyone who has made our expanded outdoor living space so beautiful."

Janet and Jim Deep Creek Punta Gorda ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Brian builds several well thought out floor plans. He remains in close touch with his subs throughout the process to ensure quality. He is probably more meticulous than I would have been through the home building experience. He has proven he will be contributing to our community for a long time and his past work and efforts prove that. You will not find a better, more dedicated builder."

Adam Wilson Wilson Pools Inc. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Another outstanding job by you and your company. The time frame for construction and completion of the new home in Rotonda Lakes was excellent and what a great house! I would highly recommend you and your company to others who want to build a new home or remodel their existing home. It was a great pleasure working with you and I look forward to our next venture. All the best to you!!"

Best regards, Terry Lange ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

'We used Brigon Homes in the spring 2013, to enclose our garage to make more living space under air. We are very very happy with the end result!!! This was our first time using a General Contractor and it was a very good experience. Brian and Ann did a wonderful job keeping us updated with the progress of our project. Very impressed that the project was kept to its original completion date. All in all a very pleasant experience and we will definitely use Brigon in the future!"

"Dear Brian,

Joyce and I would like to thank you and all of the Brigon team on the completion of the home you have built for us inFlorida

None of our new neighbors can believe that we took ownership on the exact date promised by you when we placed the contract with you, seven months ago, evidently none of their builders got even close to achieving that.

I'm sure you will be delighted to hear that perhaps your most glowing testimonial was provided by our independent building inspectors, who informed us that the Brigon site was by far the cleanest and best organized that they had ever inspected in Florida, and that that this had translated into a home of real quality.

Please thank all of your contractors for us, especially Ralph who supervised all the framing and roofing, and Carl who did such a superb job on the decorating, and Joyce would like to give a special mention for Larry and his guys who built her such a wonderful kitchen.

Finally thank you to you personally, your professionalism and enthusiasm, not only for working with us on the bespoke design, but for keeping us informed of progress with photographs, stage by stage, and finally for delivering the home to budget and accounting so precisely for all upgrades.

We thought having a house built when we were 4000 miles away would be stressful, but you ensured that we had not one minute of concern, and should you need a recommendation for other prospective clients, please do not hesitate to use us."

Kind regards, John and Joyce Rigby ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Dear Brian,

Wow, I can't believe we have been in our new Joshua home a year already!!! It was a challenge for us living in Maryland and not being able to see the building process step by step. I don't think we could have survived being a thousand miles away from our dream home if it were not for good friends and neighbors keeping us apprised with pictures and e-mails. I especially was such a pest, constantly calling you and asking the BIG question, "When do you think we will be in our new home?". I bet if you heard it once you heard it a million times. As usual though, you were always courteous and listened to us.

In July of 2005, we sold our home in Maryland of 25 years and moved into an apartment for one year. This was a real challenge, going from a 2 acre lot into a very small space.

Then July 2006 we moved into a friend's home in North Ft. Myers for the entire month. Since we had no place to live after that, we really put the pressure on you. But in the end you came through and we moved into our beautiful new home the first part of August, just in the nick of time. However, this would not have happened if you were not constantly on your staff to move faster without losing the quality of structure that your homes reveal.

Finally August of 2006 we are in our new home and guess what, Ernesto decided to make landfall. Fear not, with the aluminum shutters in place and the structure of your home we had no worries that we would be safe. However, as everyone hoped, Ernesto headed up the East Coast and spared the residents of Florida.

Although we had our challenges after we moved in, no matter what happened, you were always there to remedy any of our concerns or requests. And now a year later we would like to share interior pictures of our beautiful home.

Brian you are the BEST!!!!"

"Dear Brian, Mark and Carol,

It's been a year now since we moved in our new home. I know I was difficult with you guys at times and I feel it was worth it. Carol and I really love this model - it's the right size for us. We get a lot of great comments on the style and the quality of the construction. I'm here to tell you that I see a lot of homes this size that aren't nearly as nice and well constructed for a lot more money. I'm proud to own a Brigon Home and I like the fact that you're a home based builder in Charlotte County. You pride yourself on your homes and you should. Keep up the good work. If I ever build another home here, I know who is going to build it! I talk about you all of the time and I love to tell other contractors who built my home. I've been watching the other two Lakes models in my neighborhood. So far I like mine better!"

Thanks again, Gregg and Carol Bala Punta Gorda, FL ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

"Dear Brian:

Just a note to tell you thank you for your guidance through our remodel project. We could not have done it without you!

Remodeling is in a construction category all by itself and unforseen obstacles are rather likely to appear out of nowhere. Having you on board gave us peace of mind, knowing that no matter what difficulties we might encounter, in the end all would be well.

We are very pleased with the outcome of our project. Thanks again for working with us."

Angelika and Dorian ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
