“We are very pleased to provide this review of our home-building experience with Phoenix Construction.Bottom Line. Phoenix Construction built us a beautiful, exceptionally well-built home and did so in an open, honest, and friendly manner. Pat Hennis, his son Austin, their team of highly qualified craftsmen and subs did a superb job on our home and were a pleasure to work with. We could not be happier with our new home, and Pat and Austin made the process enjoyable and fun.Before Contracting. We were anxious before starting the process. We had never built a home before and many of our friends who had built homes warned us against building a custom home. They told us that the process was emotionally exhausting with so many delays and huge budget overruns. They strongly recommended that we forget about a custom home and just buy one that was already available.When we met Pat and his wife Melissa we were immediately put at ease. Both Pat and Melissa are wonderful people - open, honest, professional, and fair. Pat provided a set of plans which we modified together and then we worked through a simple contract and agreed upon a construction and payment schedule. The process was easy and enjoyable.During Construction. During the construction phase I was probably more involved than Pat was used to; nevertheless, he was patient and friendly as he answered my questions and helped guide our decisions.Pat Hennis has over 30 years of experience building custom homes. He is flexible and innovative, a problem solver. His experience and reputation in the community ensured he had the finest craftsmen working for him, and that he easily dealt with subs, suppliers, inspectors, etc. More importantly, Pat is honest, fair, and a pleasure to work with. I can't tell you how much I learned from Pat.Pat's son and partner (Austin Doll-Hennis) is a highly experienced and skilled builder and leader. Austin served as the on-site foreman, guiding the efforts of the outstanding team of highly skilled craftsmen and superb subcontractors. He ensured the highest quality construction and took care that whatever minor issues that arose were dealt with efficiently, effectively, and professionally. Austin is extremely helpful, supporting, and positive. He couldn't have made the process easier for us and he was a pleasure to work with. In the end, we have a beautiful, exceptionally well-built home and we finished the process with smiles on our faces.Following Construction. As is always the case, there are a small number of small issues which arise following construction. When two of these small issues arose (neither of which were their fault), Pat and Austin responded immediately and had their team correct the issues with no questions asked. We could not be happier with their support following construction.Recommendation. We highly, very highly, recommend Phoenix Construction if you are looking for a beautiful, exceptionally well-built custom home. You will not find more professional, highly skilled, honest, and friendly people that Pat Hennis and his son Austin Doll-Hennis.Should you have any questions about this review or Phoenix Construction, please contact Pat or Austin and they will give you my contact information. I will be happy to talk with you.Sincerely, PJFPatrick J. FlynnColonel, U.S. Army (Retired)Services: Tile work installation“
“These guys are “Rock Stars”. Job completed ahead of schedule, under budget, and very professional and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend them for any job, large or small.“
“We needed our porch re-screened but on closer inspection Donnie discovered we needed two of the supports to the porch replaced. He and his two fine employees were able to do the post replacements and replace the screens in record time. The two gentlemen that completed the work the second day were polite and thorough. They completed all the clean up of the area before they left. If I need any more construction work done in the future, I will certainly call Higgins Construction Company first for an estimate.“
