The quality of our craftsmanship speaks for itself

But even if it didn’t, we have our clients to speak for it . . .

It is our pleasure to write a testimonial for Griffith Homes.  They are an outstanding, straightforward and accountable company to work with.

Griffith uses the program, Buildertrend to track all aspects for the work being done, from work completed by the crew, the hours worked daily, to subtrades, materials and forward projections. This is supported by photos, and easy to find documentation that is always available to the homeowner. We found this a refreshing trend from the usual.

Their qualified crew has a vast amount of experience in different fields and are personable, polite people. When Griffith says they will be there, they show up on time and ready to work. This is very reassuring as a homeowner, and the job is started and finished in a timely manner. I would definitely recommend Griffith Homes as an outstanding construction company and felt honored to have them work on our renovations.

We purchased our chalet up at Mt. Washington in October of 2020 after many years of dreaming about, and looking for, the perfect place for our family. In 2021, we decided to tackle the necessary exterior renovations and started our search find a suitable company to bring our vision to a reality. In the end, it became absolutely clear that Griffith Homes would be the very best people to take care of our unique project. Our chalet is a very special place to us and it is something that we hope to have in our family for many years to come and, eventually, pass on to our son Elliott. Having only the best on this project was important to us!

From day one, the professionalism, attentiveness, and sincere interest in our project was overwhelming. We knew that our home being up at the mountain was going to pose unique challenges and we feared that they might cause some reluctance but we couldn’t have been more pleased at the enthusiasm everyone showed to overcome these challenges and the eagerness to make it happen. Throughout the entire three and a half month project we were met with kindness, respect and a genuine concern for ensuring every detail was being taken care of. The craftsmanship displayed with every facet of the work was nothing short of exceptional and Ben, Sid, Rylee, Gabriel and Brad were such an amazing crew; one that we looked forward to seeing every time we visited the site throughout the summer. They always had time for our questions and always enthusiastically took care of any item we brought forward. In fact, nearly everything we brought up, they had already thought of and were addressing. We quickly learned that we had nothing to worry about and that if we were away from the site for any amount of time, everything was in great hands. Lastly, we would be remiss if we didn’t thank the crew behind the scenes that took care of the incredible logistics of a project like this and ensured that everything needed to tackle its unique challenges were in place for the crew. It was amazing to see things just fall into place and everything show up on site ready for every detail of the job. What an incredible team of people you all are!

This was the first time building our own home and Tavis and team eased our trepidation from the very beginning. Professional, thorough and well organized, the team guided us through the process from permitting and authorizations to designing the house to selecting the right contractors to managing a challenging supply chain (and budgets) during and after the pandemic to the most amazing post-build binder of key information needed to operate our home. Building a positive relationship with us as homeowners was as important as building an amazing and well-built house, and we appreciated that responsiveness, and willingness to listen to our needs. Thanks to Griffith Homes, we have a beautiful home with quality and craftsmanship that is second to none.

Great attention to detail from foundation to finishing. Office staff kept us up to date and were good to work with. The onsite work crew is excellent and they work well together, even the neighbors had positive comments.

Bob Hauser

Both Eileen and I highly recommend Griffith Homes as a home builder and a co-ordinator of contractors. Tavis Griffith knows how to get the permits, which can be difficult in the Comox Valley. We love our house and are so happy that we found such an experienced and capable company of professionals to make our dream home come true.

Patrick Moore

We entrusted the building of our retirement dream home to Tavis and his team. Situated on a steep slope oceanfront lot there were challenges to overcome. Throughout the project, we continued to live in Michigan… despite the distance, Tavis worked seamlessly with our architect and interior designer. This collaboration, the attention to detail and the high quality craftsmanship have resulted in a home we will enjoy for decades to come. This was our first house building experience and Griffith Homes dispelled many of the concerns of custom home building. The decision process, the communication, and overall project execution gave us confidence they had our best interests in mind. The results have exceeded our expectations.

Erwin and Mary Tien

We hired Tavis and the team at Griffith Homes to do an extensive renovation of our 1980’s beach front home in Comox, BC. The completed project was essentially a new home with a modern layout for both indoor and outdoor living and entertaining family and friends. During construction we were only able to visit the project every two months. As with all major renovation projects there are always surprises and issues that come along, therefore it was critical to have a trustworthy, cost conscious, experienced contractor that focuses on quality work and communication. The entire Griffith team is conscientious and focused on meeting all of these objectives to create an exceptional home and ensure we were happy with the result. It has been a pleasure to work with Tavis and his group and we highly recommend Griffith Homes.
Peter and Laurie Rippon

We are exceedingly pleased with the new house built for us by Griffith Construction. At every stage of construction we were informed of the advantages (or otherwise) of available options. Any concerns we might have had were listened to. Good suggestions were often made. The entire communication process was impressive.
Jean and Don

We feel fortunate to have had Griffith Homes do our house renovations. Tavis and his team were great to communicate with. He provided a thorough and accurate budget. He had a great understanding of our preferences. We found Griffith homes very thoughtful and detail oriented and we were extremely happy with their work. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to anyone!
Theresa & Jaime

We hired Griffith Homes to renovate our unfinished basement and master bathroom. Tavis and his team were great. They were fantastic with communication and reliable for both timeline and budget. We were very satisfied with the quality of work and would definitely recommend Griffith Homes.
Lauren & Aaron

Tavis Griffith and Griffith Homes recently completed a major 6 figures renovation of our home in Comox. After purchasing our waterfront property in the fall of 2013 we contracted Griffith Homes (Tavis) to renovate the entire main floor including flooring (hardwood and tile), a new kitchen, bathrooms, staircase, paint, fireplace, walk-in closets, shower, etc. Tavis was at all times very professional, thorough and extremely trustworthy (so much that we left the country for 4 months and the project completely in his hands).

The Results when we returned were stunning and we were, to say the least, more than pleased with all aspects, which included little extras Tavis felt were essential and all UNDER budget. We haven’t a hesitation in recommending Griffith Homes to anyone looking for an exemplary building team! With gratitude and sincerity…

The Oughtreds

Thank you for building our beautiful home. We are delighted with it. Thank you for building a home that is energy efficient, durable, safe and beautiful. We cherish its simplicity, the connection it allows us to maintain with our community and heritage feel that we were able to preserve. We marvel at the thought that just 18 months ago we sat down with you to start designing the house’s ‘touch up’. Thank you for make the process fun, thoughtful and productive.
Suzanne and Colin

I used Griffith Homes for my renovation and I can say first hand that if you need a builder of utmost integrity and quality then call Tavis. We love the home he renovated for us in Comox.
Richard

We greatly appreciated your willingness to take on our renovation, your commitment to completing the project on time, and your conscientious efforts to build our home with such care, attention to detail and excellence. Moreover, we are very appreciative of the honesty, integrity and level of professionalism with which you have always conducted your business. It has been such a pleasure working with you, Tavis, that I honestly cannot imagine having hired anyone else to complete our renovations. Thanks again for everything. We are so happy with the new and improved look of our home.
Cherise

“In July of 2008 Tavis broke ground and began construction of our home in Comox, British Columbia.   Tavis made the experience of building our first home, enjoyable, stress free and exciting.  With the years of experience and knowledge Tavis has, he was able to provide guidance and feedback on decisions we were required to make, in a positive and respectful manner.  The trades that Tavis subcontracted provided quality work and everything seem to flow smoothly and on schedule.  The pride and care Tavis put into the finishing, was the icing on the cake.  Our home was complete on time, on budget and with the care of a man who genuinely loves and takes pride in the work that he does.  We would definitely have Tavis build us another home in a heartbeat!”
