“After meeting with several custom home builders, we chose John Tibbles, Aspenwood Homes because of the quality of his previous work, enthusiastic references and open-book policy. Nothing was hidden from us. Home building is a complicated process and John worked closely with us every step of the way. His expertise in design and function was instrumental in enhancing both the form and function of our home. But he was also flexible and willing to work with us when we had our own unique elements we wanted to incorporate. His trustworthiness and work ethic are impeccable and he follows up even well after construction is completed. Of course, the part of our home we can see shows off his attention to detail and wonderful craftsmanship, but the quality workmanship also goes all the way to the areas you can’t see like the foundation, drainage systems and the space between floors and walls. John was building energy-efficient custom homes long before building “green” became popular. If we were to build another home, our first choice would be John Tibbles and we have recommended him many times to anyone building a home, doing a remodel or custom millwork.”

“I have known John Tibbles for nearly 15 years and worked on several projects with him. The most recent was a large remodel of our entire house. This was a daunting process that I would not have endeavored if I did not have John to rely on for his integrity, creativity and honesty. John is a rare builder who listens carefully and tries to understand your objectives and bring them to fruition.
He will doggedly pursue finishing the project with thoughtfulness, creativity and dedication. Construction and remodels in particular always have unanticipated problems and you will be grateful for Johns deep knowledge from years experience of building custom homes to address hurdles as they come up. Most importantly John is so detailed oriented and thoughtful that he will advise you of potential pitfall so you can avoid them to start.
John is a joy to work with for his passion for his craft of building homes/remodeling homes and makes a stressful experience a positive one. ”

His knowledge of construction, design and detailing surpasses most. All of the projects we have worked on together have been run efficiently and successfully...and it’s most likely because John is involved in every aspect of the project from the conception of the design ideas, through the design phase and, obviously, implemented during the construction. We enjoy working Aspenwood Homes and hope to continue our relationship for many years to come.”

“We have used John Tibbles of Aspenwood Homes for several remodel and addition projects on our home over the past 10 years. John has tremendous building experience and is truly a master craftsman. He is thorough, conscientious and very detail oriented, but most importantly John is a good person. It is so important to trust that your partner in these projects truly has your best interests at heart and will always do the right thing. With John, we never questioned that belief for one second. As with any project, unexpected issues arise and knowing they will be dealt with in the right way, no matter what, is so important. One of our projects had a significant structural engineering component and John’s experience combined with his engineering background allowed him to weigh in and work with the architect to ensure the design was not only structurally sound but also designed in such a way that it could be built efficiently and cost effectively. John has truly helped us create the home of our dreams and his finishing work is beyond compare, but the knowledge that all the things you don’t see are done in the same meticulous fashion is what really makes it special. ”
