Client Testimonials

Don't Take Our Word For It

Couple waving in front of a brick house with a stone porch. They smile, and it's daytime.

Jackson Family

“There are many clever things we could say about Van Wales of Vanguard Custom Homes, like:

* Measure twice, cut once, swear silently.

* Building is not just about shelter. It’s about realizing dreams, making statements, creating spaces where life happens.

* When you build your team with trustworthy, seasoned professionals, you’ll achieve the BEST results.

Van was our Michelangelo, to consider our hopes and dreams for our new space, guiding us along the way. A good listener manages all the little details with ease. He was attentive, he gave us anticipated timelines so we knew what to expect and he built us a lovely home to share for years to come. Now… let the settling/nesting begin. There will be many memories made here, and we are grateful to you.”

“Vanguard homes build us our dream home. We are so pleased with the way it turned out and how easy the process was from start to finish. I had drawings and print outs of several different house designs and Van Wales helped me put them all together to create what I wanted. He was so easy to communicate with and helped us make several choices. If I were to ever have the need to build again he would be my pick hands down. Thank you Vanguard Homes and Van Wales for making our dreams come to life!”

Shaughnessy Family

We had an outstanding experience working with Van on our custom home in Town Madison. From the beginning, Van was professional, responsive, and truly invested in building a home that reflected our vision. We especially appreciated how well Van worked with our interior designer. He welcomed collaboration, communicated clearly, and executed the design plans with great attention to detail. That teamwork made the process smoother and ensured everything came together beautifully. Building a custom home can be overwhelming, but Van made it an enjoyable and stress free experience. His craftsmanship, organization, and pride in his work are evident throughout our home. We couldn’t be happier with our home and are incredibly grateful to have chosen Vanguard Homes. If you’re looking for a custom builder who delivers exceptional quality, transparency, and a truly personalized experience, we can’t recommend Van highly enough.
