Client stories

Trust is part of what we build.

Our work is personal. We are proud of the relationships that continue long after construction is complete.

Harvey Ward is exceptional in every way! We hired him to design the remodel of our 3,000+sf home from a five bedroom, two and ¾ bathroom home to a five bedroom, four and ½ bathroom home, including the construction of a new open-concept kitchen and great room, wine room, and new garage. We were so impressed with his designs and his collaboration incorporating our suggestions that we hired him for the build. It was the best decision we could have made. We live in the San Francisco Bay Area and relied on Harvey to manage the build in Paso Robles. The process was seamless. The end result perfection. Harvey was extremely responsive, answering questions or concerns almost instantaneously. As with any project, there were minor issues along the way, and Harvey was incredibly responsive and usually out the next day to resolve them. His guidance and suggestions along the way enhanced the finished project. He has an eye for detail and always went the extra mile for us. Harvey isn’t satisfied until the customer is satisfied; he is highly recommended.

Hire this guy before word gets out about how good he is to do business with. Harvey built a semi-complicated 450 sq. ft. Trex deck and Trex railing for us. Several issues were worked through, always in a positive manner. His communication is excellent. His suggestions are on-target. Harvey did what he said he would, when he said he would do it. He was the easiest part of the project. The city of Paso Robles was actually a pleasure to do business with as well. I wish I had engaged Harvey for the deck design, but I did not. The only issues I encountered were with my architect, whom I will definitely not use for future projects. Harvey dealt nicely with the design shortcomings, and we are very happy with the final product.

Harvey built a beautiful bookcase for my home. He provided pictures for me to customize my project, and any modifications were discussed in advance or along the way. Harvey is very professional. He arrived on time, if not a few minutes early, each day. The job was completed in a timely manner. There were no hidden costs. He cleaned up the area at the end of each day. I had to reschedule a day when I got sick, and he was very flexible in working out a different day with me. If I need any other home projects, I will definitely call Harvey.

Recently, we had Ward Custom Construction build a redwood arbor along the back of our yard. This is the start of a backyard transformation to include an outdoor kitchen and pergola. Can’t say enough good things about this contractor. Harvey listened closely to our design requirements and prepared a nice CAD drawing, which he sent ahead for approval. He arrived well prepared and finished the project ahead of schedule and within budget. Having dealt with multiple contractors over the years, it is a pleasure to find one as dependable and with a real sense of making the customer happy. Very pleased with the result and our beautiful addition to the backyard. I would highly recommend Ward Custom Construction for their quality work and can’t wait to get the design on the next phase!

How many times have you heard anyone hire the same builder for two consecutive major redesign projects? We did, and we’d hire Ward Construction again if we ever have another project. The first was removing a 1950s-era attic to create three new bedrooms and two new baths. Ten years later, we overhauled the kitchen, added a basement, built a family room, and built a detached garage. Some of the great things about Harvey and his team: design-build capability means it’s all in one, with no need to hire a separate architect and contractor; many years of experience mean they give solid, practical advice; pride in craftsmanship; site cleanup every day; excellent ability to schedule subcontractors and hold them accountable, which keeps the work moving; and continued service even after project completion.

Harvey Ward of Ward Custom Construction did an excellent job for me on a small bathroom redo. From the beautiful tiled floor to the new toilet and custom sink, the project was completed in the most professional and design-worthy manner. Harvey was very considerate of the space in which he worked and kept things very clean after each day’s work. It was completed in a minimal time frame and did not inconvenience me at all. I would recommend him heartily with an A+ grade.
