“We would like to thank you for creating our beautiful retirement home! I have known your family for over 50 years, and I know that you have been raised to be a kind, conscientious, capable, dedicated and honest person. You were very patient with our situation in getting our house sold and various other situations that arose. We love the quality and excellent craftsmanship that you provided. We also appreciate the highly skilled and professional workers that complete your team. You are great at organizing the steps to complete our home in a timely manner and you are skilled in passing the inspections all along the way. We appreciate your attention to detail so that we could relax. We like the way you kept us informed and the way you handled unexpected issues. We totally recommend your company to anyone who wants a smooth construction experience. It gave us a great piece of mind knowing that you are honest and looking out for our best interests.”
“From our very first meeting, working with Eric of Hines Custom Homes to build our home in Wilmington, NC has been a wonderful experience. He connected us with a wonderful home designer, works with high-quality subcontractors, and consistently stays on top of every detail. Eric is professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly responsive. He keeps us well informed, answers our questions thoughtfully, and truly listens to what matters most to us. My husband and I have been especially impressed by how smoothly everything runs and how well he coordinates the different trades. The project moves forward efficiently, yet we’ve never felt rushed. We’ve also been impressed by the quality of the materials and craftsmanship throughout the home—from beautiful finishes like the 8’ waterfall glass doors, wood beams, custom maple range hood, and a bay window for my daughter’s room, to the materials you don’t see such as the insulation, roofing, and other structural components. Eric clearly prioritizes quality in every aspect of the build. Building a home can often be stressful, but Eric’s calm, positive approach has made the entire process enjoyable. We trust him completely and feel confident knowing our home is in such capable hands. We would highly recommend him to anyone considering building a custom home!”
