Customers' Perspective

My experience building my new home was pleasant and exciting from beginning to end. The entire team were unfailingly helpful, interested and cheerful no matter how many times a week they heard from me! I have recommended the Barrie Model Home Court to friends and business associations and will continue to do so.
This is a far superior way to purchase a custom built home, no worries of contractors not meeting expectations, we moved in on our projected completion date, there were no price over-runs. We received a high quality custom-built home! The folks at Guildcrest Homes Barrie are top-notch to deal with, too!
The staff at Barrie Build and Design Centre know their homes. They are excellent with helping out with other contractors. They deal with anything that comes their way and were very helpful with us with our new house and the price range we had to be in. Thanks again. We love our home.
