Testimonials

Dear Baumann Building Team,

On behalf of my family, we wanted to express our deepest appreciation for everything you did to make the building process a truly wonderful experience. From the very beginning, we felt that we made the right decision with working with the Baumann Team. Every aspect of the process was communicated clearly and all our questions were answered in a prompt and sincere fashion.
We were a little overwhelmed at the thought of building during a major health crisis. I had concerns that the building process might be too much for us with everything going on. Your performance proved otherwise. Everyone went above and beyond to accomodate our schedules or whatever was required.
Chelsea's assitance throughout the design/pick-out process was invaluable. The fact that Baumann had a designer on staff was a major selling point for us. Other builders did not offer design expertise on staff. Chelsea made the process fun and we had a great time bouncing ideas off each other. Having her part of the team made a world of difference.
Brad's on-site management and walking us through everything was great. He was always available to help answer a question or explain what was happening at the site. Brad did an exceptional job keeping us in the loop on the project. He worked with all the sub-contractors and delivered us the keys earlier than promised.
A special thank you to Mike, Ammie and Marci who assisted in so many ways! We could not have had the experience we had without you all. Every detail was covered, nothing was missed. By the way the kids love the playset!
So many others helped make our our home a truly special place. Our expectations were exceeded and then some. I would highly recommend Baumann Building to any perspective home builder. You helped make our dream a reality - thank you.

Kind Regards,
Dustin & Lindy

To the team at Baumann Building:
We are writing to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for the recent construction of our new home. When we originally designed and built our first home with you in Grand Haven in 2003, we didn't really know what we were gettin into. In retrospect, we saw that we were lucky to have such an incredible group of people working on our behalf. As we now know, twists and turns are bound to come up in the building process, but it's the integrity of the builder that determines the overall result of the experience. That is why we looked to you when we remodeled our basement, and then again when we bought the home in town to remodel. We trusted you with that task that was so important to us because we had seen first-hand the way you do business. We knew you would be easy to work with, honest, and fair. Once again, we were not disappointed in the least.
Chelsea really listened to what we wanted and consistently went out of her way to help us get the most value out of every single dollar. She helped us get the look and feel we wanted in an affordable way! She put in a lot of extra hours, and the results of her advice and hard work have won countless compliments from everyone who has seen the finished product!
Brad was constantly in contact to make sure things were being done well and on time. He gave us honest feedback and even made a number of suggestions we would have never thought of that really improved the livability of our home. He helped eliminate a lot of those " I wish we would have..." moments before they ever had a chance to occur.
Ammie worked magic with the financial aspect, patiently helping us survive a unique construction loan situation. She also jumped in to help out in any other area necessary when others weren't available. I knew if she said she would make sure something was taken care of, it was as good as done.
Mike and Marci, you orchestrated the process with an outstanding quality of character from beginning to end. Your faith clearly shows through in your commitment to do what is right and treat customers with respect and understanding. You always made us feel that we would be taken care of, and then followed through in your actions.
As glad as we were to move into our beautiful new home, we were a bit sad knowing that we wouldn't be in contact any more. We feel in a way that through the process we have gained not just a new home, but some great new friends. Thank you again from the bottom of our hearts for helping us achieve everything we hoped for.

 We wish you all God's blessings,
Brandon, Alissa, Emma, Ty, and Ava

We met Mike Baumann at the 2009 Parade of Homes. Three conversations later, we agreed to have Baumann Building construct our new home.
The testimonials you see in his literature are genuine and authentic. We can think of no higher praise than to echo their sentiments, tenfold. The journey from concept through construction to completion of our home was joyous, and has left us feeling profoundly grateful that we entrusted our dream to this superbly talented organization.
Harold and Judy

"Initially the thought of the whole process of building a home seemed quite intimidating to us. We looked at many homes on the market, but just couldn't find what fit us. When we sat down with Mike, Brad, and Ammie, they made us feel at ease and from the start made the process very smooth and a lot simpler than we thought it could be. From Ammie taking care of the sale of our existing home & many other details, to Brad & Mike seeing all the final touches done on the house - it all came together beautifully and we couldn't be happier. They also had a great decorator (Chris) that worked with us which made making decisions a lot easier. The whole team was very honest and personable and we definitely made the right decision choosing Baumann Building to build our dream home."
Adam and Amanda

Dear Mike,

Let me start by saying that our family loves our new home. From the design to the finished product our new home is everything we wanted. After touring several homes from past parades the decision to build was exciting. The Baumann homes we toured stood our with great design and attention to detail. You and your team worked with us on the sale of our existing home and listened to our ideas for our new home. Our home sold in twelve days and the process of design and construction began. Through the process your entire team worked hard to make sure that plans were carried out to our expectations, timeframe and our budget.
Mike, you listened to our ideas from the start of the project. You made sure that everything was to our liking and even allowed us to provide some of the materials and labor to keep our home on budget. We are truly thankful for your hard work, integrity and professionalism. Amy and I have enjoyed the process of building and are looking forward to raising our family in such a beautiful well built home.
Amy and I would like to extend a special thanks to Brad Vanderzwaag for his hard work. Every step of the construction phase was monitored very closely, and although we expected a high degree of professioalism from your staff, Brad's work exceeded even our expectations.

Thank you again,
Mike and Amy

 Few can say that building an addition to their home would be a great experience. But Mike Baumann, along with supervisor Brad VanderZwaag, Eric, & the entire Baumann Team made it happen!!! Taking on a renovation project can be a daunting experience, but Mike's expertise & professional acumen made it seem easy. I bought my 1930"s home last year because of it's great character and the ability to expand. One of my main desires was that I wanted the addition to look like it had always been part of the home while protecting the integrity of the original house. Mike listened to my concerns, stayed within my budget, and delivered a fabulous final product. When I saw my house for the first time, I was absolutely thrilled. I just couldn't be more pleased. The quality of the workmanship is flawless from the painting and trim, to the floors, tiles, carpentry and attention to details. If you are looking for a builder with high standards, honesty and intregrity, then Mike Baumann is your guy. Mike was able to capture my vision and make a dream come true. Baumann Building, Inc. truly lives up to their moto: "Signature Homes." Thank you Mike for my beautiful home!!

"As we look back over our first year in our new home from Baumann Building we are just as pleased as the day we moved in with our four children! Mike, Brad and Ammie were excellent to work with and we enjoyed the process of building with them. We are grateful for the wisdom, common sense, flexibility and openness they brought to the building process. We are also grateful for the suggestion to build in Savannah Lakes as this has proven to be a wonderful neighborhood as we and our children have built not only a house, but great friendships here as well! The quality and craftsmanship of the Baumann Team is thoroughly evident as we have enjoyed our first year of worry free home ownership! Thank you to everyone at Baumann Building!"
Steve & Lisa  

"As our home comes to completion, we find ourselves reflecting on the smoothness of our building process which has been not only efficient but fun as well. Quality, integrity, and honesty are the three words that continue to come to mind when we think of Mike Baumann Signature Homes. Mike has built a team of individuals who not only produce a high quality product, but are also quality people who are enjoyable to be around. Throughout the process, we have felt as though we were building with family, and we will miss the day-to-day interaction."
Chase & Gina

" We loved our neighborhood and had no intentions of moving, even when our needs in a home had changed. After touring some of Mike's homes and talking with him personally, we decided that he was the right builder to assist us in transforming our existing home.
One of our concerns with remodeling was the effect it would have on our environment. Mike listened to our concerns and found the right subcontractors to meet our needs, including solar panels, geothermal heating and cooling, and reclaimed floors. He and his team also recycled as much as possible and donated our used fixtures. They made changes quickly and efficiently on site and without a second thought on our part.
In the end, we were able to rebuild our dream home with as minimal impact on the earth as possible, stay in the neighborhood we love, and have the home we always wanted."
Jeff & Jeri

"Baumann Building has taken our plan and been an excellent guide and manager for an extensive renovation process. They have given a careful eye to budget considerations along the way to accomplish our goals and have made suggestions as to design and the use of materials to get the best job for the money. Their sub-contractors are probably the best in the industry, and their Project Manager, Brad, is always available and either on top of or ahead of each step in the project.
Ultimately, I have full confidence in the decisions they make on our behalf as they have taken the time to get to know us and our expectations."
Jack & Karen

"Our experience with Baumann Building has been nothing but a joy. The relationship with the entire staff has been wonderful from all subs and the employees, especially Chris, the interior designer. The decision making process was always handled in a timely manner. I highly recommend anyone to take the hardship and stress out of building a new home by using Baumann Building."

Dear Mike,
My family and I can not thank you enough for the absolutely fantastic house your company built for us. There hasn't been a day yet where my wife, who is more particular than I, has failed to mention how much she loves the house!
It is clear to us that you have built us a very high quality home. From the squeakless, quiet floors and flawless carpentry and trim work to its solid structure, it is hard to imagine a better engineered house.
As you know, I was skeptical going into the building experience from the financial standpoint. It was, however, very refreshing to learn how open you are about all of the financial costs, including how much you make from the build. From the financial perspective, it was unquestionably an open book.
Mike, you truly have a great crew, and sincerely run an honest business. Your staff has been extremely polite and professional. Special thanks has to go to your onsite supervisor, Brad VanderZwaag. He did an outstanding job bringing everything together at my home and guiding me to the best possible decisions.
For those who want a very well built home, designed with their vision in mind, but at an affordable cost by a builder who has proven to be sincerely honest, you and your company is the obvious choice. I can not emphasize enough how pleased we are with the results.

Thanks again, Mike!!

"The process of building a home from over 800 miles away was much easier than could be expected with the help of Baumann Building. Mike, Eric, Chelsea, and the rest of the Baumann team worked with us through eachs stage of the process keeping us informed of progress and answering all of our questions. Seeing the home for the first time since it was poured walls on a snowy March day was great. The end result exceeded our expectations. Looking back on the process we are thankful for Baumann's honesty, communication, attention to detail, and hard work. We look forward to enjoying the home for years to come."
The Bouwens

"When we chose Baumann Building to build our new house we knew it would turn out great. What we didn't expect was the amazing team that Mike put together which turned our house into the fantastic custom home that will be an awesome place to raise our family. The ability of the Baumann Building team to work through any changes we had made the building process very smooth and enjoyable."
The Wierenga's

"Our overall experience was excellent. We did not know what to expect with the process since it was our first time building, but we were pleasantly surprised at how smooth things went. Mike addressed our concerns and questions promptly, and we felt confident that he was always on top of things. We couldn't be happier with our new home, and would give our full recommendation to anyone to use Baumann Building.

Dan and Jane Seaborn

"During a Parade of Homes a few years back, we toured a Baumann home and immediately knew this is who we wanted to build our home. Upon meeting Mike, I knew we made the right decision. The building process went smooth from the start, and ended with a beautiful home. Building was such a great experience and we look forward to working with Mike on our next home."
Hugh and Cherie Robertson

"Choosing Baumann Building to construct our home was the best decision we made! We can honestly say it turned out better than we ever dreamed it would be and Baumann Building made the difference. They always did what they said they'd do. The confidence we had when we first signed our contract was the same as when we made our last payment."
