Compliments from our Clients

Les designed and then managed the building of our dream home! The building experience exceeded our expectations and the service after we moved in has been just as great. We would recommend Les to anyone.

As an interior designer and retail paint store owner, I am in contact with many contractors, so when it came time to relocate my retail store to a brand new location I immediately knew that I would be calling upon Bellamy Homes to complete my leasehold improvements. I have worked with Les Bellamy on a number of occasions and know that he is one of the few contractors who is able to maintain both a schedule and a budget throughout a project. Les was able to help me design the store layout to be both functional and beautiful and then drafted the floor plans for construction. All said and done, we were in on budget and he was able to have me moved in within 1 month of starting construction!!

We would like to submit as letter of reference for Les Bellamy in regards to work that Les has done for us in the past. We had a very positive relationship with Les who did both our blueprints and the on-site management of the entire construction process for our new home in the Quarry.

We found that Les is very accurate and timely with co-coordinating the various trades to bring our project in on time during a very busy construction season. We feel that Les's background in framing is a major advantage when doing blueprints over someone that has never worked on a job site. We also found that his rates were very reasonable as some designers will nickel and dime you for all the little extras which usually don't show up in their initial quotes.

We are going to build again and had Les do the blueprints for our proposed new home as well. We also had Les price out our new home in the summer of 2008 and found his trade’s prices are in line with the most competitive builder prices in the valley.

We would highly recommend dealing with Les as an honest individual as well as his knowledge and experience in the building industry.

A testimonial in support of the professionalism exhibited by Les Bellamy based on the personal experience of the undersigned over a two-year period with Les as our designer/draftsman and general project manager on our first-time brand new home project.

Noteworthy positive attributes re Les:

  • very knowledgeable about the construction industry based on some first hand experiences with heavy machinery, structural framing and on-site project managing, which provided us with a trustworthy manager for our designing/drafting services and on-site project managing needs
  • keeps up to date with relevant Building Code requirements including site specific ‘local’ Bylaws for all relevant design/construction phases from geo tech and site prep, as well as standard and complex foundations, plus structural framing, then on to electrical, plumbing and other trades
  • very knowledgeable about sub trades practices which is most cost effective
  • also very effective in managing schedules and constantly thinking ahead to minimize delays and to look for cost improvement options as a job progresses
  • communicates extremely well with the client, in calm exacting terms
  • above all - pleasant and easy to work with

A personal message to and about Les:

We feel extremely fortunate that he was part of the team to erect our house which is now a ‘home’. We sincerely appreciate all the professional and personal help he brought to our project. At our point in life we now realize how big a challenge we took on to build a brand new home and we do not think we could have survived as well as we did without his guidance, expertise, and most of all his patience and ‘cool headed’ approach to the many difficult decisions we all had to make. Les is a professional in all respects and we highly recommend him in either or both capacities as a designer/draftsman and/or as a project manager.
