I used Trojan and Rosebud construction ... I had Trojan make some modifications to the house plans.. added vaulted ceilings, went to 9 ft in the rooms that weren't vaulted etc. no charge no sweat! (except for the added materials) Ray and I sat down and it took less than 20 minutes to pencil in the changes the architect took it from there ...
As to fixtures ... I had them back out the items I did not want and provided my own
Start (grading) to finish the whole project was completed in 5 months, on budget no headaches, the biggest delay was a 30 day wait for the electrical / plumbing inspections before we could close up the walls - I hear things are much better now ...
The folks at Trojan and Bud Turpin of Rosebud Construction handled everything to my complete satisfaction and beyond. Bud has a really good eye and added touches like rounded corners on the drywall - just one of many touches that come only from experience
I had read so many horror stories about building in Hawaii .... I still cant believe how smooth things went ... I think my part in the whole project was about as tough as baking a cake, 1 cup water 2 eggs, a little oil and a package of mix, ready for move in - grin
As an aside, I was really surprised how little waste there was .... everything was carted away in less than half a pickup truck load..
