In the autumn of 2023 we embarked on a major renovation and new addition to a home/property purchased outside of NOTL. We engaged Homes By Hendriks who also referred us to Designs by Santy for the architectural work. Both were excellent choices.HbH quickly caught on to what we value in a home reno/build and adjusted accordingly to meet our established budget. They provided the solid “bones”, never compromising on what would provide a sound quality home.The renovation went way beyond a simple facelift and required a level of trust in HbH who had a “we got this” expertise. Along with a completely new addition beautifully integrated into the original dwelling, the old house was peeled back to the studs, the ceiling vaulted and all the studs strapped to provide proper insulation, and everything completed with new electrical/plumbing/HVAC. Due the planned below grade walkout from two basement guest rooms, one foundation wall was to be completely exposed and had to be solid! The entire foundation ended up being reinforced due to the old concrete block foundation. As with many old houses, there were a few surprises. For each one HbH gave us confidence they could effectively be handled.All through the project HbH provided quality trades and referred us to finishing sources completely suited to our style and budget. We would like to thank their entire team with a particular shout out to Brendan Goulding who oversaw our project.In a little under a year, we moved into our new home and are living happily in wine country.

We recently had the pleasure of working with Hendricks Custom Home Builders for our dream home project, and we couldn't be happier with the results. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, their team exhibited professionalism, expertise, and genuine passion for creating a home that perfectly aligned with our vision.The design process was a collaborative experience. The architects at Sante Yeh took the time to understand our ideas and preferences, offering insightful suggestions that elevated the final design. They are well-versed in the latest trends and sustainable building practices, which was a significant bonus for us.Throughout the build, communication was seamless. Project managers (Greg and Rudi) kept us updated on timelines, and their transparency about costs and potential delays was refreshing. Any concerns we raised were addressed promptly, making the entire experience stress-free.Quality was paramount, and Hendricks Custom Home Builders delivered in every aspect. The craftsmanship is impeccable, from the intricate details in the woodwork to the high-end finishes. It's evident that they use only the best materials, and their team of skilled tradespeople truly take pride in their work.Moreover, our home was completed on time and within budget, a rarity in this industry. The entire process felt like a partnership, rather than a transaction, which made the experience all the more enjoyable.We highly recommend Hendricks Custom Home Builders to anyone looking to build their custom home. Their commitment to quality, customer satisfaction, and innovative design is unmatched. We are so grateful to have had them build our home, and we look forward to making lasting memories in our beautiful new space!Keith and Beryl Baugaard

Building a home is both expensive and challenging, not all builders are created equal. Homes by Hendriks is a knowledgable high integrity builder that builds your home as if it is their own. Working with this team is like forming a partnership and we have nothing but positive memories from our time working together. If we were ever to build or renovate in the future we would hire them again in a heartbeat.

We worked with Darren and his team, starting during the pandemic into 2023. Darren was really supportive and encouraging during the design phase, working with us and our architect, suggesting ideas and features that we might want.Brendan was our site project manager and he did a super job, was very knowledgeable and 100% customer oriented. We lost heat on Christmas Eve just after move-in and Brendan was there!The quality of the build was a very high-level custom build. Our neighbors, family and friends love the house. One of our close relatives who is a very knowledgeable renovator in Toronto said that it was the nicest new build that he has seen.Robert and I are absolutely thrilled! Thank you to the wonderful HbH team

I’ve had the opportunity to offer a different perspective and experience from working with the Homes by Hendriks team. I’ve been hired on several occasions to do custom metal work and standing seam roofing through my company Architectural copper & sheet metal. One thing I’ve noticed is the attention to detail from the framework (which is very important for what I do) all the way to the finishing touches. The team is always responsive when I’ve had questions and have always showed me nothing but respect and professionalism throughout the process in which I’m on site for. I very much look forward to working on a Homes by Hendriks site in the near future.

Working with Homes By Hendriks has been a great experience! We purchased our spec home (right at the end of the build) off of them and they treated us like we are one of their clients from the beginning of the build process. Nothing but good things to say. We love the quality of build of our house!!

The Homes By Hendricks team helped us to design and then build our custom accessible home. Darren and the team were professional, always available, and responsive to questions through out the entire build. Our project manager Rudi was approachable and capable. After we moved in, there was continued follow up to ensure we were completely satisfied. Homes by Hendriks is a honest, quality builder in Niagara and we highly recommend them. Thank you HBH team!

Our experience with Homes by Hendriks has been exceptional. We came to Darren Hendriks with an idea and he, along with his incredible staff turned it into a reality.Right from initial contact, Darren and his team did what they said they would do and did it with a certain class and skill that super exceeded our expectations.We added an almost 900 square foot in-law suite with a garage and remodeled the front entrance. Salvaging the brick that was removed and adding it to the new addition, the exterior of our home looks as though it was the original design! Incredible work.All of the trades people involved were respectful and pleasant to have around.Our talented site supervisor Isaak and his lead hand, went over and above on many occasions, kept our project moving and was always available when needed.Operations manager, Greg Jonah, took the time to answer our questions throughout, patiently explain the many factors involved in our project and how they come together.The worksite was always kept neat and tidy and our project was completed within 2 weeks of our original closing date!Homes by Hendriks beautifully crafted a quality custom home addition for my mom to be happy and safe in.... and they did so with little stress and a lot of care and class.Sincerely, a grateful and happy customer.

For our home renovation project Homes By Hendriks came highly recommended from multiple sources and we are thankful that we heeded the advice. The Hendriks team is personable, professional and helped guide us when we needed direction/input on everything from design/layout to colour choices. They communicated clearly, kept to budget, and in these challenging times miraculously managed to achieve the promised timeline. Their own team and their carefully selected suppliers and sub-contractors were all outstanding. Polite, trustworthy, tidy, skilled and efficient. We were extremely pleased with the finished project and will always recommend them without reservation. They deserve their stellar reputation.

Homes by Hendriks built our home in Beamsville and we moved in late 2018. A lot of work and communication took place with Darren, Greg, Debbie, Yvonne and others. It was a challenging project on the escarpment but finish and workmanship exceeded our expectations. Post occupancy, Darren and Greg continued to be available for us and have worked to resolve any issues as they presented themselves. They have further demonstrated a willingness to engage in the community and are available to support as required. An incredible team and my wife and I are honoured to know them.

There is no debating it, Homes by Hendriks is Niagara's premier custom home builder! I've been fortunate to know the Hendriks family for many years and have built a close friendship with the owner Darren. He has built an incredible organization based on values such as integrity, trust and loyalty. Their work speaks for itself, simply checkout their portfolio or connect with the long list of happy customers. In my 13 years in business, I've never been more confident that you get what you pay for and this statement couldn't be more true in the world of construction.

Homes by Hendriks built our dream home for us. We were looking for a company who had experience in building luxury homes that were larger than ours and with septic systems so that our home would be a slam dunk. It sure was! The management team and their trades were great to work with, quality was never sacrificed and they were always available and ready to answer questions when we had them. When shopping for a builder, ask about who they work with on their projects, that is important! HbH has a great reputation, and thus, has great relationships with the top trades and companies in the area.Building a new home is a very stressful time for the homeowners and HbH was always there to keep us calm and provide options when things were not going perfectly (which happens frequently when building a home).I would recommend them anytime!

We approached Homes by Hendriks primarily because their reputation is synonymous with quality construction. The Hendrik's team understood our vision and guided us through the renovation process to create the sanctuary we desired that complimented both an exceptional property and historic location.

We built a custom home with Homes by Hendriks. We have not built before and selected them based on the advise of a friend of ours who is a local designer and are very happy that we did. It was a pleasure working with Greg, Rudi, Darren, Yvonne and the Hendriks team. They made a major project and the many meetings and decisions that come with it an enjoyable experience. Their team and the trades they work with did exceptional work and took the time to help us with the details that now make our home feel unique and special to us. When issues arose they were very quick to respond and help find a solution. We love our new home and have recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so.David and Vera
