I have been working with Chad Gust and his staff for nearly five years and have been very impressed with the exemplary professionalism that he brings to every job or task that we may need completed and I truly appreciate his responsiveness.

I’ve been working in commercial real estate myself for over 30 years and have created multiple franchised hotels, convenient stores, apartments, town-homes and subdivisions. I currently have over 500 properties underneath my group and I have been very impressed with the quality of work that Gust Construction delivers on each and every project.

Whether you are remodeling an existing home or designing a new home project, Gust Construction will deliver to you a quality product within a reasonable time frame and will do so with unwavering professionalism and honesty.

My wife and I are pleased to add our names to the list of satisfied homeowners who have had homes built by Gust Construction. The Gust craftsmen are first rate and their attention to detail elevates the quality of the home.

We appreciated the many suggestions from the staff to change certain aspects of our home which enhanced our idea of what our home was to be. We built while we were out of state making it difficult to be present during all phases of construction.

The Gust crew constantly took photos of the construction which left us with a feeling of satisfaction and excitement. Our questions and concerns were answered quickly and any decisions were discussed with us before work was started.

The construction timetable was adhered to; construction was completed on schedule.

Richie and Chris Klepeis, Smithtown NY

The finished house turned out exactly as we had envisioned it. The suggestions Chad provided, based on his years of experience, were invaluable. He paid as much attention to detail in the construction phase of the stuff you don't see as he did to the finish work.

It is difficult to find an individual with more integrity than Chad Gust. He is absolutely trustworthy and stands behind his product. He personally responds to and follows up on any concern you have about your new home even after you have taken occupancy. He has earned a sterling reputation within our community.”

Howard & Judith Slovin, Pembrook Pines FL

Just a note to tell you how appreciative David and I are. We are truly blessed to have found you as our builder, more importantly, to call you our friend.

David and Ellen Silvers, Chantilly VA

I found Chad Gust to be a high energy individual with an eye for detail and a great pride in the quality of his workmanship.

Building long-distance has the potential of becoming a nightmare. Working with Chad was like a dream.

I can honestly recommend Chad to anyone looking for a contractor in East Tennessee and would not hesitate to have him as my contractor again.

Sharon Westlund, Port Orange FL

Not only did we have a custom home built, but we had a well-made custom home built. This was made possible by Chad, Brad, Cindy and Jan. I must say that it was fun and exciting to see the pictures of the construction from the beginning to the end. I would highly recommend Gust Construction to anyone that wanted to build a custom built home. The expertise from the office and of course Brad, who knew where every light and switch needed to go, was outstanding.

Richie said that he had always heard that when your house was completed, if you could talk with your contractor as a friend, then that was a good thing. We feel like we made good friends with Chad, Brad, Cindy and Jan. We could do it all over again with Gust Construction.

Richard & Annette Henderson, Eccles WV

When we retired in 2007, our dreams became a reality when we moved to Tennessee to begin to build our new home. We researched a number of builders, and Gust Construction was the builder that we chose. We were not disappointed.

Chad and his team displayed the professionalism and workmanship that both my wife and I expected. Building a new home can be very stressful. Having Chad as our General Contractor lessened that stress because he gave us the confidence to trust in him that he would do the job and do it right.

We would strongly recommend the Gust Construction team when anyone is in the market for building a new home.

Craig and Cathy Siemsen, Kingwood TX

My wife Sylvia and I moved to Tennessee from Northern Virginia. The task of selecting an honest, trustworthy and quality builder from afar was of paramount concern to us. We found our experience with Chad Gust to exceed those concerns. Chad is indeed a very honest, dependable, and trustworthy builder. His very timely and responsive work ethic coupled with a constant strive for perfection in every aspect of this project was consistent and greatly attributed to the production of an excellent quality home. We are very pleased to have selected Chad to build our home and would very highly recommend him to any potential customers.

Nick and Sylvia Crea, Amisscille VA

I would recommend Gust Construction to anyone building.

Buhr

In our opinion, Gust Construction is number one!! Their quality, professionalism, timeliness, and attention to detail is superb!! Brad helped us design the home of our dreams and Chad, Scott, Cindy, and Jan, made our dream a reality. We couldn't be happier or more proud of our beautiful home on the lake.

Bill and Marcia Buhr, Jonesborough TN

Brooks

It is with great pleasure that we write this letter of recommendation for Gust Construction Company. We interviewed many builders in the local area over the ten-year period prior to building but always came back to you and your team as our benchmark for excellence. Your reputation for the highest quality work is well known and appreciated in the community!

It has been about six months since we moved into our jewel and we wanted to let you know how happy and truly pleased we are with our home. As you know, we had a strong vision that combined old world charm with modern convenience. You and your team exceeded expectations and in fact, we felt that everyone that worked on this project from conception to final completion took a personal interest in making our vision come true.

We are not only satisfied but happy to recommend you and your company to all new clients.

Ray and Londa Brooks, Warrenton VA

Evola

Prior to building our home in 2007, we had interviewed several builders and chose Gust Construction. We could not have been more satisfied in our choice.

Building a custom home is a large undertaking in any situation, but to compound it with building a custom home 600 miles away makes it more so.

At no point in the building process did we feel like we could not speak with Chad or his capable staff. We were provided digital progress pictures throughout the build and our meetings with suppliers and designers were scheduled to meet our travel schedules.

Gust Construction made the building process as non-stressful as possible. We are very proud of our beautiful home!

Jennifer and I wanted to let you know how much we appreciate your commitment to building a quality home. We purchased our lot in Chelaque Estates seven years ago as I was approaching retirement with plans to build our retirement home. We spent many hours looking at house plans for several years before settling on the Southern Living Chestnut Hill Plan. Gust Construction, quality sub-contractors, and office staff have successfully made our dream home become a reality. With Brad Reynolds’ expertise and creative design ideas, an already beautiful house plan became even more functional. The modifications we wanted to make and the suggestions he made have culminated in a home that we are truly proud of and very happy to retire in. We honestly cannot think of a thing we would change. It has all come together beautifully. Everyone who visits us comments on the quality and skilled work provided in construction. The exterior siding and trim work done by Jesse Gentry is top quality. Because much of the trim work needed to be fabricated on site, the quality of work provided by Jesse and his crew is apparent. The house required a good deal of carpentry detail work inside. Your construction crew did exceptional work and met the challenge.

We always appreciated you and your crews’ commitment to keeping our job site clean and orderly. When we would come in at the end of the day to look around, we were pleased to find everything left neat. This made it much easier for us to see what was being done and not have to stumble over scrap lumber, dodge exposed nails and track through piles of sawdust. A very special thanks to Teon and Jim. They were very easy to work with and very professional in every way. The pride they display in their quality work will benefit us for years to come.

You are truly blessed with an outstanding office staff as well. Cindy was invaluable n helping us through the process of making selections such as paint, plumbing, electrical lighting fixtures, appliances, kitchen cabinets, counter tops, windows, siding, roofing and door hardware. The list goes on and on. We had no idea there were so many decisions to make in such a short time. We have been extremely pleased with the selections we made and they way it has all come together. Cindy was always on top of everything; generally when we had a question, she was already ahead of us with an answer. In the rare few times she did not, she got an answer right back to us quickly.

There will always be a few items needing attention, as with any major project, once you move in. We had heard horror stories about people building with contractors and once the house was complete not being able to have the punch list worked in a timely fashion. Jennifer and I met with you after we had been in the housea month or so and shared our punch list with you. Your crew was out in a couple of days and knocked out the list in a timely fashion and we immediately began getting calls from a couple of vendor contractors who needed to come back and tweak their install items. Everyone has been responsive and helpful in closing out all aspects of the construction and installation of all appliances and equipment.

Thanks to you, we are confident we have a quality home that will serve us well for many years to come.

After interviewing several builders and with careful prayer regarding who the Lord would lead us to build this special home, we are so very glad He led us to you.

Brad and Jennifer McClam, Winter Springs FL

We can't say enough good things about Chad. Construction quality was excellent. And he had some wonderful design ideas, often improving on what we originally thought we wanted. In describing him, however, two words really stand out: trustworthy and ethical. We were living in Florida while he built our home long distance we last saw it during construction seven months before moving in and he did everything he said he would and then some. During this entire period it was obvious that his business ethics were of the highest standard. Overall, it was a real joy to work with him.

Skip and Betsy Townsend, Leesburg FL

Chad is fantastic to work with. He's detail oriented and very driven to please the customer. I can't recommend him highly enough.

Richard and Judy Moody, Bedford TX

Lipply

If ever there were a perfect house, we have it! It ever there were a perfect builder, it's you! We can't say enough about you Chad and the way you run your business with honesty, integrity, and the highest of standards. We had lots of choices and talked with quite a few builders before we decided and none of them gave us the peace and confidence that we got from you and your staff. Our house is amazing and we wouldn't change a thing; it's everything we wanted and more. Thank you for all your hard work, attention to detail, and for not only meeting our expectations but exceeding them!

Bob and Donna Lipply, Tarpon Springs FL

Lepree

We want to express highest praise to Chad Gust and his entire team. Communication was excellent from the planning stages through the completion of our new home and that included exchanging ideas and suggestions long distance throughout most of the construction. What could have been a stressful project for us turned out to be smooth sailing all the way. Most importantly, Chad's business ethics, quality of construction and the establishment of his client relationship with us far exceeded our expectations. Many thanks to Chad and the entire Gust team.

Rachel and Bob Lepree, Fanwood NJ

Five years ago, my wife Rosemarie and I had planned to build our retirement home within the Windswept Community in Morristown, TN. In 1995, Rosemarie and I built a custom home in Ohio so we were already familiar with the total building experience. However, when we selected Gust Construction to build our new home in TN, our expectations were far exceeded in every way.

Once we had looked at a number of other builders, and the quality of homes being built, making the decision to select “Gust Construction” was our easiest decision. Gust Construction provided quality in design, reliability and integrity, and quality workmanship of construction in home building in the Morristown area.

Additionally, when Rosemarie and I sat down and had a personal interview with Chad Gust and his supporting staff Brad, Cindy, and Jan, we felt that we immediately became part of the Gust Construction family. It was the family environment and professionalism put forth by the Gust Construction Team that made our home building a valued experience, and even at times a fun experience. We felt part of a team through the total building experience. Would Rosemarie and I recommend Gust Construction as the contractor of choice to build our home again or other homes to be built in the future? Definitely, yes!

But don't base your decision on our words above, coordinate with Chad and pay us a visit. Rosemarie and I will gladly show you the end result of our experience with Chad and his team.

Dave & Rosemarie Ramsey, Springfield OH

We have been in the home for eight months and have absolutely no complaints whatsoever.

The planning period went smoothly as Brad Reynolds answered all my questions quickly and thoroughly. All my ideas were considered and incorporated when possible. The construction phase was just as smooth. All teams who worked on the house were excellent craftsmen and kept the job site neat and clean. This was a professional, first-rate job from start to finish.

Dr. Brad and Kristi Lindsey, Morristown TN

In three years (since we moved in) there’s never been an issue with the home  — the speaks volumes of the great work and quality you build with a home! God Bless, Many Thanks.

Dave and Connie Elkins, Terre Haute IN

Stark

We wanted to take this opportunity to let you all know what an absolute pleasure it has been having your company as our contractor in the planning and construction of our new home.

We heard all the horror stories of contractors and construction problems from other homeowners and builders. It was such a pleasure having you folks as our builder and contractor.

You made the process of building and owning a very easy process for us. Being in Asheville and having you all taking care of things up here for us gave kay and me peace of mind.

We have recommended you to anyone who would ask us about our experience with Gust Construction and crews.

Once again thank you for all your help and expertise, you made what could have been a hard job easy.

Milton and Kay Stark, Asheville, NC

Chad is very caring about who he works for. He’s real personable with his customers. The quality of work is very good. His crews work fast, but they don’t go so fast that it interferes with the quality of their workmanship. They are honest and trusting. They’re just good people.

Curt and Connie King, Dola OH

Jungdahl

Having a home built with Gust Construction was a pleasant experience due in part to the professionalism and constant attention to my concerns from Chad Gust... The finished product is a quality home that demonstrates attention to details and pride in workmanship.
