We have just moved in to our new custom home, thanks to Idell Construction. From the first meeting in their lovely conference room where we discussed our house plan via their large projection screen, we knew they were the builder for us. They listened to our wants and needs, made pertinent suggestions along the way, and kept in constant contact. The contract, blueprints, and regular communication made things clear and concise.
The team always made themselves available to take calls or meet with us. The quality of materials and labor stands above the rest. Idell Construction feels much more like a relationship than a business agreement and that made the process not only stress-free, but very enjoyable. We would highly recommend using Idell Construction. A huge thank you to the entire team!

Idell Construction built a new commercial building for us in 2021, from the design phase completely through to final completion, on time and slightly under budget/estimate. They communicated well throughout the process, were honest about issues that arose, and kept their workplace clean and neat. I would highly recommend them.

I want to say a heartfelt thanks to Idell Construction for doing a fantastic job on the construction of the facility for Journey Physical Therapy and Balance Center, LLC. They created a beautiful 2,800 sq ft facility with a spacious parking lot and a drive-under canopy for patient drop-off. They were attentive to detail and communicated well. We are extremely pleased with the end result.

Our dream home realized! I had always heard building a home was one of the most stressful things you could take on. We found that with Idell that statement is far from true! From design to completion, the team at Idell listened to our wants and needs and guided us to our dream home. And did I mention quality! Everything is done to the highest of standards - those of Jeff and Mike Idell. Our project manager Jordan was terrific. He went above and beyond to ensure our expectations were exceeded. If you are looking to build or remodel, look no further than Idell Construction

Jeff Idell, Mike Cobble, and Idell Construction are top notch. A new construction home comes with challenges - seen and unforeseen. It was important to my family to choose a builder that we felt comfortable with, a builder we could trust on those difficult decisions, and a builder who cares the same, or more, about the quality of their work as the homeowner cares about the end result. We found that in Jeff, Mike, and the Idell team. Mike Cobble was consistent, attentive, and handled any challenge, request, or question with consideration and care. Jeff is absolutely on top of it.
He does not leave you without answers and is constantly ensuring your concerns are addressed, your decisions are final, and your project stays on track. ALL construction projects have issues and hiccups, but Jeff, Mike, and their team handled every single aspect of our construction from beginning to end impeccably. We could not be more happy with our home. Highly Recommend!
