I bought a tear down property in May of 2019 with Zimmermann Homes which was completed in July of…read more2020. I can't say enough good things about Rob and his team. I was not living in the DMV area when we started the project so they did a great job of communicating remotely during the design process. His architect, Darren and interior design team, Christina Simon, took samples of things we liked and found ways to integrate them into the house. The property has so many cool features from finishes, to a basement apartment, gym, and a roof deck. It's a 4,400 sq foot house but feels like it's 6k. Rob, Jim, and team are very particular about how things are done. If something doesn't look right, they are going to have it corrected properly and they did. From building for energy efficient, print labeling everything ( low voltage, electrical, was, gas), to managing the draw schedule, they really focus on the little things during what is a very stressful experience. After moving in, they ensured punch list items were attended to. Unfortunately, we had to relocate for work after a year but the focus on details and quality allowed us to get top dollar for our property. Having now bought another newly built home only further highlights the unique focus on service and quality building of Zimmermann homes. Wish I could have had him build my house out west.

I am a huge fan of working with Zimmermann Homes for a custom build home, proven by my recent…read moreexperience building a new house with them in North Arlington. It's the second house I have built with Rob and his team in the last 4 years and this experience was even better than my first one in 2018. Zimmermann Homes continues to improve its operations continuously, whereby the customer remains first and foremost. Building together over the past 12-18 months had several challenges, primarily supply chain issues, most of which were entirely out of our control. However, Rob and his team worked even harder to source substitutes that were just as good or as timely as the initial selections we made for the design of the house. As someone who visits dozens of newly constructed homes annually, I am very aware of the quality and pricing of the competition facing Zimmermann Homes, so when I say that you can't beat the "bang for the buck", I'm confident that it's true. The quality of the architectural structure, design, construction, and home efficiency are truly unmatched at the price point offered by Zimmermann Homes. More than anything, Rob and his team are really good to work with. It's expected that things will go awry at some point in building a custom home, whether it's a schedule delay, design issue, permit snag, or selection that is out of stock. Recognizing this, Zimmermann Homes is creative dealing with such issues and they do whatever is necessary to minimize disruption and stress for the home-owner. Rob has built an incredible business for home construction in the Northern VA area and I can't think of a better company to work with when building a home. He has put together a team of experts that seamlessly work together so that issues are resolved quickly and most of the time it is done behind the scenes, making the customer's experience much better. I would be remiss if I didn't give shout-outs to the members of Rob's team. Darren is amazing at helping you design a home that works for your individual needs, while being very aesthetically pleasing to the eye, both inside and out. Christina and her team are the best in the business when it comes to the color schemes and styles, making your budget go as far as possible with the selections for appliances, tile, cabinets, countertops, and lighting. Finally, Jim J. is a savant when it comes to managing the overall project and making sure that the customer gets exactly what he/she wants, at the highest level of quality throughout. His attention to detail will always amaze me and any other customer he has ever had. I couldn't be happier with the final product. Friends, family, and neighbors that visit are amazed at how well it came out, especially during a worldwide pandemic. I could not endorse Zimmermann Homes more highly. They are the best at what they do. When I build my next house, there is no doubt that I will ask Rob and his team to work with me again! - The Scardino Family (again), Arlington, VA

He was straight shooting and honest, and while the bid was a little higher than others it was pretty factual and transparent. The delivery aspect was good... Andy was the project manager and very personable. I did have some trouble with some of the subs, poor communication but overall very good and any upset I had was well handled. Definitely keen to customer service. They are even working with me to get it done in my time frame as I had a baby on the way... So mostly done and live-in-able. Have a few more items to install and the final punch list but so far it's been worth while. They also do a second round of review to ensure customer satisfaction in 10 months. Will keep you updated. shawn

I suspect Jenn is a "planted" review. If this is a credible outfit, than I can't imagine what a less than credible developer would deliver. Sad commentary on KT Builders as well as the lack of inspection oversight by the City of Baltimore. They fell short on virtually every aspect of the purported "renovation" but I suspect made some major dollars as did the real estate agents who added nothing but insulation for the developers. BTW-if anyone would like "pictures" of how KT's product looks post-closing, would be glad to oblige. Falling plaster and literally water dripping into the house is not exactly a glowing testament. Though this might be the developers' concept of how to "beautiful Baltimore." At least their pockets have been enriched. And that, is what this outfit is about. Jenn has to be a relative or a pseudo name used by one of the principals. Post-sale, one of the co-developers (the one with the legal degree) smugly commented the buyer was no longer his issue and asked if we had not heard of "caveat emptor " (buyer beware). Contradicts some promises made leading up to closing, but sorta says it all about this outfit. BE VERY CAREFUL!!!!!!!! Be ready for a substandard home and to pay mucho bucks afterwards for things you thought would be included.
