What Our Home Remodeling Clients Say...
Nunley Custom Homes Would Be An Excellent Choice.
Joe Nunley has a wealth of construction and design experience and we have personally seen many of his remodels and custom builds over the years, including with our own home. He is 100% committed to doing a quality job and refuses to take any shortcuts. If you are looking for someone to do a quick and dirty “lipstick on a pig” job for a quick property sale or house flip, Joe may NOT be your guy. But if you are looking for a quality upgrade to your own home—something you can be proud to show off to your friends and neighbors—Nunley Custom Homes would be an excellent choice. Joe communicates well with his clients and will offer many interesting design ideas and material recommendations. And he will not consider a job complete until it meets, not only the proper building codes, but also his personal standard of excellence!!
We Hit The Jackpot When We Found Joe Nunley And His Crew!
We hit the jackpot when we found Joe Nunley and his crew! Our goal: to renovate a 1956 brick ranch family house while maintaining the character of the original home. The finished product exceeded our imagination and expectations! On the front end, Joe listened carefully to our vision. Throughout the project, he communicated clearly and timely, followed the provided timeline, maintained a safe, clean, and orderly work environment, and offered design options to meet our desires and budget. Joe and his team were dedicated to providing excellent work with attention to detail and precision. Phase 1 (entire home renovation) went so well, we will soon begin Phase 2 (covered outdoor living space and kitchen) and we are thrilled to be able to work with Joe and his team again.
