“A Tradition of Excellence” was a trademark of custom home builder Hans Krepstakies, whose company was founded in 1974. His son, Robert, a second generation builder in the Kitchener-Waterloo area, has sought to continue this quality workmanship and customer service in the houses he has been building since 1994.

Robert builds each home as if it were his own, concentrating on quality; paying particular attention to the workmanship and materials that go into each house. Customer satisfaction is of utmost importance to him. His expertise at organizing and coordinating with sub trades and customers, allow him to successfully complete each home by the scheduled closing date. Together with his team of quality trades people, suppliers and designer, Krepstakies Construction offers a service that few custom home builders provide, whether planning to build in the country or in the city, using your own lot or theirs, Krepstakies Construction can help make your dream come true in the Tradition of Excellence.

AWARD WINNING BUILDER

Krepstakies Custom Homes has both won and been nominated for the prestigious “Builder of the Year: Small Volume” Tarion Award. The Tarion Awards of Excellence are the premier customer service awards for home builders in Ontario. Builders of all size and type are eligible for the awards, however participation is by invitation only; based on each builder's customer service record with Tarion over the last five years. In 2006, only six per cent of the 5,600 registered builders in Ontario met Tarion's stringent criteria and qualified for the award program.

Seventy per cent of each builder's score is based on random customer surveys. Almost 2000 homeowners were surveyed for the 2006 awards.

In addition, builders must provide their customer service philosophy and policies and each builder's approach to customer service is evaluated for the remaining 30 per cent of the total score.

"The Tarion Awards of Excellence recognize builders from across Ontario who are leaders in making the new home buying experience the very best it can be," said Greg Gee, President and CEO of Tarion Warranty Corporation.
