Thelen Total Construction

"Peter & I want to express our appreciation to each of you for taking us through a process neither of us had expected! What started out to be a remodel of an older "lake house" turned into a beautiful new home which we hope to enjoy for years to come!

Many of our friends have built homes and after hearing their "stories", Peter & I felt that we just didn't want to go down that road, because we just didn't know enough about the building process and with both of us working and not living in the area, made it seem impossible. Working with each of your, and your expertise made this a very positive experience and I would have to say that I would do it again with you, without hesitation!"
Peter & Claire F.

"Brenda & I want to take a moment and thank you for exceeding our hopes and expectations building our lake home on Lauderdale Lakes. We had previously seen the quality of your homes were superb in every way, but what we hadn't experienced until we journeyed through the home building process was all the behind the scene things you and your team do to make our home truly unique.

We went into this project expecting a lot of stress and frustration as so many people using other builders having related negative stories. What we experienced was a smooth process that we thoroughly enjoyed and would not hesitate to do again. Thanks for making our dream a reality.

Please don't hesitate to have any potential client call me and we would be happy to share our great experience with them first hand."
Kevin & Brenda C.

"This is just a quick note to thank you and your entire organization for the fantastic work done on our new home so far. The process has been very rewarding and we have had a lot of fun. Ann and I both commented to each other that we are impressed by the attention to detail and the genuine care in which your company does everything. During the recent Walk- Thrus we marvel at your commitment to make sure everything is proper and makes sense.

We are entirely grateful to be doing this project with you. Ann and I have never questioned our decision to have you as our builder, but we are constantly reminded that we are with the right people. Thank you for your efforts and attention."
Ann & Dan B.

"Everyday we wake up with the same satisfied feeling that we have a home to last a lifetime. It's amazing what started with preliminary conversations three years ago has resulted in the home of our dreams. From the "can do" attitude of your crew, to the post move in detail work, all of the services your company offered are what puts THELEN TOTAL CONSTRUCTION above all the rest! As we look back, we understand the value of all those meetings from the design phase through various stages of construction. The results of all those meetings is what we are enjoying today!"
Bill & Shirley W.

"As people later shared their experience of going through our home at the Lakeland Builders Association Parade of Homes, we realized how lucky we were to have Thelen as our builder. One woman went through four different times, bringing her husband and others through on subsequent visits. Another builder went through several times looking for some flaw, some design quirk or lack of craftsmanship, and went away finding nothing lacking. As we came home one night after the Parade, the last couple to see the house was leaving and said, "You'll really like this one, it's a beauty." We said, "We know, we own it!"
Chuck & Sue A.

"Our home building experience with you was uncomplicated from the initial design to moving in. The quality and workmanship on our "Thelen" home is superior."
Barb & Bill L.

"We long desired to build our dream home, but never expected it to be of such quality nor as enjoyable an experience as it actually turned out to be. We toured through the Parade of Homes and always found the Thelen homes to be superior in their quality. We foolishly assumed that we could never afford the quality of home that your company constructs. The best decision we made was taking a chance and meeting with you."
David & Marla W.

"For many years we dreamed of having a new home and one in which we had a great deal of input in how it was designed and built. Our home exceeds our earlier hopes and dreams... It was nice having the experience of going through the process of making decisions about the design of the house, the little choices that make it uniquely ours, and to feel like we were building it as partners"
William & Mary P.

"It has been two years now since we moved into our new Thelen home, and this letter of thanks to the Thelen team is long overdue. For this we apologize. However, waiting two years has also allowed us to appreciate the after the sale service. This is just one item, we believe, sets the Thelen team apart from other builders in the area. For this, we are grateful. Money cannot buy this type of confidence and peace of mind."
Jim & Donna H.

"Our building experience was an exciting and positive one. Your expertise and flexibility enhanced our own plans and concepts. Our goal was to create a warm comfortable atmosphere, that was relaxing to all who entered, and allowed intergenerational living, which was handicap accessible. The many small details you suggested made our home more complete and unique."
Matt & Julie S.

"Our first year in our "dream house" has been just that - a dream come true. We have thoroughly enjoyed the spaciousness, the easy flow of the floor plan and the quality of the construction in our new home....My mother, too, is pleased with her suite. She has all the room she needs, as well as the facilities to maintain her independence, while being close to us for any help she might need. Your staff and your contractors have made our entire home building experience a pleasure. Everyone has been exceptionally helpful, knowledgeable and professional."
Walter & Marion R.

"We have been in our house over a year and have yet to find any fault in the quality of the workmanship. Since the first Parade of Homes when we saw a couple of your homes, to the time we moved into ours, we have never regretted for one minute our decision in having your firm build our home. You and your entire staff made the difficulty in building a home an amazingly simple task with the manner in which you have developed in walking one through the process. From the time that we first met you in your office, to the time we moved in, you always gave us a comfort level that made us feel like you were building our home as if it was your own."
Buzz & Karen M.

"Building a home was a first time experience for us and living 160 miles away while our home was being built was a concern for us when construction began....You put that concern to rest immediately. We had no problem as others had told us while they were building. I believe they had one problem, they chose the wrong builder!"
