Working with K2 for our first home build was an incredibly wise decision. The team, consisting of Peter, Jared, Rick, and Jay, demonstrated an impressive level of knowledge and experience. Their expertise allowed them to suggest minor modifications that had a significant impact on the final outcome, all while staying within our budget. One of the standout aspects of K2 is their collaboration with local tradespeople, who were all fantastic to work with. This ensured a smooth and efficient process throughout the construction. K2's use of interactive software to manage communication, budgeting, estimates, updates, and files was truly remarkable. The user-friendly interface provided reassurance and made it easy to stay informed about the progress. The regular updates and photos of the construction progress were particularly enjoyable. Despite logistical challenges preventing us from visiting the site regularly, Peter made sure we were consistently updated and arranged site meetings accordingly. This level of attention to detail and communication was highly appreciated. Most impressively, our house was delivered on time and under budget. This level of service is rare to find among builders, and it further solidifies our satisfaction with K2. In summary, working with K2 for our first home build was an exceptional experience. Their knowledgeable team, seamless communication, and ability to deliver on time and within budget surpassed our expectations. We highly recommend K2 to anyone considering a home construction project.
