Testimonials

I think you know where I stand. I recommended you to a coworker because of the great experience we’ve had with you. I recently passed your contact along to another friend of mine who is looking to remodel some of their home.

I continue to be impressed with how involved you are in the entire home building process. From the very beginning when you met us at our home to discuss our ideas and dream of building a new home; through the design process; meeting with us at our property (multiple times) and helping us choose the best location for our house including walking the entire length of our property and laying out the potential driveway. You continue to be personally involved with the build even as we near completion. You respond to text messages, emails, phone calls. You and the team have listened to any questions or concerns we may have had and have responded to anything we’ve brought to your attention. I’ve seen you at our build cleaning up after a subcontractor finished a long day of work, and I know you’ve stopped by on weekends, on your personal time, just to check things out.

We honestly could not be happier, I would recommend Luebbe Fine Homes to anyone looking to build a home. I have a friend building a home right now with a different contractor and it has been a nightmare for him. I almost feel bad telling him how great the homebuilding process has been for us.

I feel comfortable recommending Luebbe Fine Homes to anyone, and have actually done so multiple times.

Thanks for all you do!

My husband and I have contracted with Luebbe Companies for three different residential remodels. We continue to rehire the company because of their professionalism and quality results.

Jay and his staff demonstrate a high standard that is hard to duplicate elsewhere. They are excellent at problem solving and suggesting remedies to issues that are both within and discovered outside the scope of work. The staff has a diverse skill set and provide beautiful end product. We never fail to be amazed at how talented they are as well as knowledgeable in so many areas. It is so reassuring to know that I can ask their advice and receive solid, well thought out feedback.

Additionally, I appreciate the communication and fast follow-up they provide. They respond to my calls and text messages quickly with answers to my questions. With each project the Luebbe Companies have undertaken, the transformation to our home has been remarkable. Rooms which have been underutilized are now used often and we are proud of them when we entertain.

The best testimonial is the fact we would not hesitate to contact Luebbe Companies for our next home remodel project. We have personally recommended them to others and will continue to do so in the future.

Teresa and I realized we recently we celebrated our 3 year anniversary of being in the new house.

We wanted to send you a quick note to let you know we’ve been very happy with the house. Thank you for building us the house of our dreams. I included a picture of the landscaping now that it has all filled in nicely.

We have had people pull up in our driveway when we were in the front yard and tell us how beautiful our home is. It has amazing “Curb Appeal” one person told us. Another person said they watched the house being built and even snooped in the house before the doors and windows prevented them from going inside. They were impressed with the quality of the workmanship that they saw. Apparently they built a new home a couple of years before we did and had all kinds of problems with their builder.

As you know, we have built 3 other custom homes prior to this one so we have a way of comparing the job you and your team did for us to the previous homes that we had built. Working with you was a pleasant experience. The ideas and suggestions you brought to the table were very much appreciated.

The unfortunate thing Jay is since this is our “Dream Home” and the plan was for this to be our last home, we won’t be able to use you in the future to build us another home. Hopefully this letter is something you can share with future potential clients to give them confidence in choosing you and your team to build their home. Feel free to give our names and contact information to future potential clients as well if they ask for references. We’d be happy to share our experience with anyone.

Please share this with your team and tell them Teresa and I said hello and that we are very happy with the work they did 3 years later.

Wishing you all the best!!!

When we ﬁrst met Jay, he told us we would be friends at the end of the build process and that is the exact experience we had building with Luebbe Fine Homes. Jay builds a ﬁne home with quality materials, attention to detail and quality craftsmanship. Jay emphasizes doing things the correct way and a focus on bringing the customers vision to reality. Jay does not say “it can’t be done”; he works on ﬁnding a solution to any situation, that works for all parties, and always puts the customer ﬁrst. We would deﬁnitely build with Jay again.

I have known Jay Luebbe professionally and personally for over 20 years. Jay is a man of honor, integrity, honesty, clarity, creativity, passion, precision and utmost professionalism. Jay understands the building industry extremely well and is highly respected by his peers. He works diligently to construct buildings that ultimately exceed the customer’s expectations. Jay is truly a master builder.

Jay facilitated the construction of a 31,000 sq. ft. school building for Grace Christian School just over 12 years ago. The building includes 10 superior classrooms, and a state-of-the-art gymnasium, cafeteria and commercial kitchen. This building has served us significantly well over 12 years and is one of the physical gems on our campus. Jay has also managed several other construction projects in our original building on campus; these projects have helped maintain excellence in our learning environments and overall facilities.

I highly recommend Jay Luebbe and his highly talented and skilled team as commercial builders. If I may be of any assistance to those interested in engaging Jay Luebbe and Luebbe Construction in a commercial building project, please feel free to contact me directly.

Best regards,

~Cindy Phillips

Pure Excellence is all I can say! Our building experience with Jay was outstanding from beginning to end! Jay kept his eye on the details so we didn’t have to. He accommodated all our design requests and we couldn’t be happier with the results. When my husband and I decided to have another property remodeled we knew Jay was the only choice. The work done was perfect! We know without hesitation if we build another home or do another remodel Jay is definitely the first call we will make.

When Stephanie and I were selecting a builder the word “integrity” was more important than the project itself.

Saying what you will do is OK, but you must do what you say. Jay is a man of his word.

Staying informed as the project went along was very helpful in completing the project to our expectations. Coordination of sub-contractors and materials can be very difficult.

In the end we found Jay really cares about the projects he builds, and he does his very best to reward his clients total satisfaction.

Luebbe company can be Trusted to meet your expectations.

When we purchased our property and embarked on this journey there were so many unknowns about the process of building. My husband and I worried, “How can we make sure we do this right?” We remained a bit apprehensive after meeting with several builders until we sat down with Jay Luebbe. His personal involvement throughout every step of the process has been invaluable to us. Jay’s expertise and ability to clearly break down the process and our options has been vital to our experience. We have developed so much trust in him and every member of his team. It is clear that their goal is to build a quality and lasting home and to bring our vision to life. It has been such a pleasure to see it all come together, and I can’t wait to live in our beautiful home!

There is no greater sign that you have chosen the right person or people to help you build or remodel your family home when your contractor thinks of your family as much as you do. From the start, Jay made an impression as he learned what we want to do with our German Village home remodel. He was very interested in who we are, what our goals are and what important goals we had for our project. He asked us poignantly, “Do you enjoy what you do for a living?” After a moment of stumbling and explaining, he stopped us and said, “I LOVE WHAT I DO!” This simple statement shines through in his attention to our needs, goals and desires of our project, and he not only achieved every aspect of our hopes but went above and beyond with
creative solutions and a craftsman touch to make the outcome of our project more than what we expected or anticipated.

We intend to continue to work with Jay Luebbe whenever we can. As we have moved on from our last home and venture, we continue to work with Jay on a major remodel of our new home north of Columbus. Eventually we will plan to do a new build with him in the next 5- 7 years, and I belie e hat will eventually be our “forever” home. When we work with Jay and company, we know we can rest easily knowing that we will be treated honestly and fairly, and he will also keep n ye out for us to ensure we are treated the same by others. We really did find our “builder for life” and life-long friends in Jay and his lovely wife.

What a Custom Home Build Experience Should Be

My wife Margot and I decided to build a new custom home in 2017. We had built twice before with production builders in a planned community but decided this time we really wanted a home designed specifically for us. We found Luebbe Fine Homes through a referral from our family doctor.

Keep in mind Margot and I have never built a truly custom home. We had heard the horror stories, so we wanted to be sure to select a builder we could trust. Our doctor’s experience was exceptional, so we decided Luebbe Fine Home would be a good fit for our project.

After meeting with Jay Luebbe, Margot and I knew we were in good hands. As our project progressed in the early stages of architectural design, Jay was right there with us, guiding us through the process. His years of experience in building and remodeling was a huge bonus as we weighed the various pros and cons of our design before finalizing the plans.

Jay provided even more guidance and insight as we looked for land for our new home. He helped us consider the not only the physical elements of our property, he walked us through insights to consider from orientation of the house to making sure we selected land in an appropriate area given the size and cost of our build.

Once we broke ground, the experience and professionalism of Jay and his crew really showed. From planned (and unplanned) walkthroughs, issues and resolutions, changes, upgrade, updates, you name it, the team supported us through it all. We ended up with a finished product that was beyond anything I have ever seen or experienced.

When you are spending over $1,000,000 dollars on a custom home, you want to make sure you have a competent builder who can shepherd the project, manage your expectations, provide practical, professional advice and guidance, and who you trust to make sure the job is not only done, but is done to his exacting, high standards. That is exactly what you get with Luebbe Fine Homes.

People often ask Margot and I about our home building experience. They are shocked and surprised when we tell them it was one of the best experiences of our life. We love our home and we love our builder!

If you are considering building a new custom home, Margot and I strongly urge you to hire Jay and his team. You will be glad you did!

My wife, Heidi, and I were thrilled with our experience building a custom home in 2020 with Luebbe Fine Homes. Neither of us had ever built a home previously and, frankly, we were nervous starting out. Jay and Kenny did an excellent job listening to our likes and dislikes, discussing how we’d use the house (like entertaining space), and taking us through a process to design a beautiful custom home. We didn’t know what design/style we really wanted starting out, but they did a great job by encouraging us to look at websites and bring pictures of what we liked so we could use those to drive the decision making process. Throughout the build, Jay and Kenny were very hands on helping us make modifications to improve the flow of the house and ensure it met our needs – even details like where to locate light switches! We were very impressed with the quality of the build and the thoughtful way they recommended improvements and energy saving ideas (like spray foam insulation). They take great pride in their work and it was evident as the home build marched along how excited they were too with how the house was turning out. We’ve been in the house about a year now and still say “I can’t believe we live here!”. We are very happy we chose Luebbe to build our beautiful home!

After 20 years living in a home that we built, my wife and I decided to build again. We knew we wanted custom work and flexibility throughout the building process and were advised to choose a builder who’s practice is to design the home before signing a final building contract. We’re grateful that we found Luebbe Fine Homes. Our current community includes several new home builds by various builders, so we hear about stresses our new neighbors are experiencing that we were spared because of Jay Luebbe’s upstanding personality. It’s very important to him to be above reproach in the way he conducts his business. The honesty and openness we received as a result is something some of our neighbors are missing out on. For those attributes alone, he is our builder for life.

We are very happy with the quality of our home. The building practices that Jay invokes far exceed the minimum requirements that were used on our first home, and it shows. I’m personally impressed with how solid it is. I’ve spoken with members of the community who said, “I know Jay Luebbe. He builds a good home.” Our friends and family have commented that they’ve seen many fine homes but the quality of this one is exceptional. One family member was impressed with the interior paint job and asked if we realized how much better it is than what they normally see. Almost every visitor complements the custom woodworking, staircase and handrail that Jay’s master carpenter, Fred, created. We are grateful to be living in a home that was built to last, a home that we can pass on to the next generation.

None of this is to say that the building process is not stressful or that each build doesn’t come with its own unique set of challenges. To that end we’re glad to have been working with Jay and his crew. Their talent and professionalism go a long way toward solving those challenges and minimizing the stress. Beyond that, the personal relationships we built along the way approached family status. They’re good people. They care. I think it’s hard to find that these days. It is my opinion that anyone who chooses them to build their home will be putting their family’s future abode in the best of hands. We are certainly confident that we made the right choice.

Sincerely
-Joe Sayre
