Quotes from Our "Extended Family" of Clients
You couldn't get better carpenters unless you were living
in the White House!
"We had a very positive experience. We met with them many
times before we ever got the project off the ground so they knew
what we wanted and how we wanted to be involved with the project.
We took an active part with their blessing. They were a lot of
fun and made it very entertaining. Because we were involved we
could make some last minute changes. We found them to be ready
to work with changes and be flexible throughout the process. The
people they had to work with are outstanding. You couldn't get
better carpenters unless you were living in the White House! It
felt like the workmen had a stake in it like it was their project,
too. We would do it again in a minute."
-Jeanne Balkman
Their work was amazing.
"We're very happy. They are incredibly honest and approachable.
If you find a problem, they will come out and fix it. On the money,
they were very open. You know exactly what everything costs and
have a very good working relationship. This was our lifelong dream
house on Lake Travis. If we build a house again, we'll call them.
"
- Tom & Marlene Leih
The quality of their work is just superior as far as we are
concerned.
"The house is very well made. They are fantastic native Texans
so we could relate to them. Jerry and Barbara are very down-to-earth
family people. Their ability to keep quality contractors, such
as the guy who does all the moulding detail work, is one of their
best points. He's been with Jerry years and years. We planned
a 3400 square foot home on Lake Travis and they got it done within
8-9 months."
- Ginger MacMicking
(They have) Happy clients, beautiful homes.
"It was a wonderful experience. I have worked with them as
an interior designer since then. If we were to build again it
would be Donahoo Homes that we would use. People come through
the house all the time and say what a wonderful house it is--
which is always great to hear. I have worked with clients for
whom they have built houses, and they are always satisfied with
the work. Happy clients, beautiful homes."
- Carolyn Albert-Kincl
People love my house.
"Barbara and Jerry were wonderful. No problems with them
at all. Jerry was true to his word. It was a good experience working
with them and it was well received. People love my house."
- Dr. Maury
They are wonderful people.
"It was a great experience. They were very easy to work with
and always responsive to any questions. They were very professional
to work with and responded in a timely manner. We did our own
plans and they took them and built our home. They are wonderful
people. I highly recommend them and would build with them again."
-Tracy St. Pierre
He has already done two houses for us, and he will be building
our 3rd one!
"There are several things Jerry does that others don't do.
One is that he does it exactly how he describes it to you. It's
the best I have ever seen from taking something from 2 to 3 dimensional.
He will always get an upfront understanding of what needs to get
done and how much it will cost. He has already done two houses
for us, and he will be building our 3rd one!"
- Ron Stone
They did excellent work.
If I was building another house, the Donahoos would build it.
We decided to build our dream--the project was a 3600 square foot,
2-story house. The Donahoos were not the low bid, but we had the
best product from what we could see. They built us a great house
and we became friends. They did a great job!
- Gene & Mary Ehler
A Few Words from Some of Our Superior Subcontractors
"I have been doing business with them for 19 years. They
are great to work with and great people to know in general."
-Tommy Piggott, T&B Electric and Air
"We've been working with Donahoo for over 10 years. It is
good to work with good Christian people. We feel like we are part
of a team and everyone working together makes everything go smoother."
-Don Carrington, Barker Roofing
"I've done jobs for them for many years -so many that I
can't count how many flooring jobs I've done. I have known them
since college. They are trustworthy, honest people and they pay
on time."
- John Bergmann, Bergmann Custom Wood Floors
They are easy to work for, honest and reliable, and pay on time.
The Donahoo’s are very quality oriented—that’s
why I like working for them. They do not cut any corners.
- John Allman, Framing Contractor
Donahoo is a great builder and we do a lot of work for them.
It’s more of a personal relationship with the subcontractors.
I go out of my way to give back to them—go the extra mile.
I’ve been working for Jerry for 4 years now. They build a
really good home.
- Robert Villaneuva, Capitol Custom Tile
They are extraordinarily nice people and pay draw requests when
I need it. They are really down-to-earth people. You are not dealing
with a typical builder. You will have a good relationship with
them day-in and day-out. It’s easy to communicate with them,
and they are reasonable, old-fashioned business people. They are
fair, honest and ethical. The Donahoo’s don’t treat
you like trade; instead you are treated like family. The Donahoo’s
are a pleasure to work with.
- Jay White, Ace Painting
I’ve worked with the Donahoo’s for 7 to 8 years. They
are great people to work with and are very honest and sincere.
The reason that I respect them so much is that when they build
a house, they build it like they are moving into it themselves.
That’s the pride they put into their work.
– Jerry Penick, Creative Custom Cabinets
