It's always nice to get some insight to the company you hire to design, remodel or build your family's home. We've provided some reviews and testimonials from completed projects below:
Customer Comments: The experience was awesome.
Description Of Work: The provider didn't do any work to my home. What he did that was so amazing to me was take the time to help me find contractors in my area to provide the services that I needed to be done. Even thou he didn't make any money off this job, he made it a point to make sure I was satisfied.
Customer Comments: He did a phenomenal job for me. I highly recommend him. He was under budget, on time and he did a better job than we really hope for. He's an excellent man and excellent business man as well. He stayed right on budget.
Description Of Work: I did use Waugh Custom Homes Inc. He matched the brick, he matched the roofing and he also included the living, dining room and kitchen areas along with another bathroom. He dug the footing himself by hand so he didn't cut into any piping.
Customer Comments: Ed is a quiet, calm and professional individual. His work ethic is impeccable and the quality of his work is fantastic. I would and have already recommended Ed Waugh Construction to anyone who is interested in a new home build or for a remodel. He and his assistant did most of the work. However there were subcontractors and they/their work was impeccable as well. He uses the best and the work is fantastic.
Description Of Work: Ed Waugh Construction added approximately 400 square feet which encompassed a living room, kitchen and bathroom. His expertise in design helped us figure out the best possible utilization of space and created a beautiful place for my mom without infringing on our established home.
Customer Comments: Absolutely the most professional contractor we have ever dealt with! He installed a fireplace with surround and the project was flawless from start to finish. Ed Waugh was an excellent communicator, was ALWAYS on time or early, well organized, detail oriented in every aspect of the project and we could not be happier with the finished product! We would absolutely not hesitate to recommend this company to anyone and would not dream of using anyone else for future projects. He restored our faith in contractor's after having had a bad experience a couple of years ago. He did everything he said he would do, when he said he would do it and did OUTSTANDING work! If you have a project, call him, you will not be disappointed.
Description Of Work: Installed custom fireplace and surround.
Customer Comments: Outstanding! The team went beyond our expectations. We will be using them again this coming spring to paint our stucco home.
Description Of Work: Waugh Custom Homes repaired fire damage to our outdoor kitchen and reconstructed the area to a better than new condition. The team was professional in all their dealings both with the homeowners and a house sitter. Everyday prior to departure they cleaned the area to including washing the tile floor.
Ed,
Thank you so much for the excellent job that you and your guys did for us. We are very happy and pleased with your work and will recommend you to others whenever possible!
Again thanks!

MY WIFE AND I WERE CONSIDERING CHANGING OUR FIREPLACE WHICH HAD A LARGE WOOD BURNING STOVE TO A FIREPLACE WITH GAS LOGS. THE MANTLE WHICH WAS ORIGINAL TO THE HOUSE ALSO NEEDED AN UPGRADE. WE THOUGHT AND THOUGHT AND DID THE NORMAL RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET. AS USUAL FOR US WE SPENT SO MANY HOURS TRYING TO COME UP WITH A DESIGN AND THEN ALONG COMES ED. MR ED WAUGH GAVE US A PROPOSAL THAT AT FIRST DID NOT SEEM EXACTLY WHAT WE WERE LOOKING FOR BUT IN THE END IT WAS ABSOLUTELY PERFECT. ED CREATED A FIREPLACE WITH GAS LOGS AND A FURNITURE GRADE MANTLE/FIREPLACE FRONT THAT IS SO BEAUTIFUL AND IS ALREADY GIVING US MANY HOURS OF HEAT AND JUST PLAIN FUN SITTING IN FRONT OF THE FIRE. ED IS BY FAR IN MY 66 YEARS THE BEST CARPENTER/DESIGNER/WOODWORKER WHATEVER YOU MAY CALL HIM THAT I HAVE EVER HAD THE PRIVILEGE OF KNOWING. HE IS SUCH A TRUSTWORTHY AND HONEST PERSON. I CAN ABSOLUTELY RECOMMEND ED. I HAVE THE BEFORE AND AFTER PICTURES TO PROVE WHAT I AM SAYING TOO!

Nine years ago Ed Waugh build our house and we are glad we chose him. We had a real concern about everything being right and made sure our house turned out just like we wanted it to. Even though our house was built on bad soil, we have not had a single problem.
Ed not only built a beautiful house, we became great friends. I would highly recommend Waugh Construction Co.

Mr. Ed Waugh constructed a home for our family in 1994. As of today's date, my family and I are pleased with the structure and are enjoying it to the fullest.
We have found Mr. Waugh's work to be very professional.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
Sincerely,
Agnes C. Pegues
Hi Ed,
Just wanted to thank you again for all of your outstanding work. It's not often, in today's world, to have the privilege of working with someone who's values, integrity and professionalism are beyond reproach!
It's been our pleasure working with you!
Thanks so much!

Ed,
Thought I should write you a letter to let you know what a pleasurable experience you made for us in building our home.
All the time you and Michael spent making sure that everything was done correctly and that nothing was done outside of Florida building code specifications. When something was done wrong by the subs, you had them come back and correct their mistakes.
Also, I must mention that fact that you being the designer and the builder made everything a lot smoother. You did some beautiful designs for our home. The granite counter tops, the columns, the arches, the crown molding, all the windows, and the tile floors make our home one that we are proud to show off.
Ed, if you ever need to show someone the quality of work that you have done, please use our home as an example. Also, feel free to use our names as a reference.
Regards,
Dean Benton
I recently had a home built in Santa Rosa Beach by Ed Waugh and Michael Strength of Waugh Custom Homes. I have heard horror stories of some people's experiences with contractors, but working with Ed and Michael was a pleasure. They were both courteous, pleasant, and above all, honest.
Ed and Michael were dedicated to building a quality home, and made every effort to be sure that I was satisfied. I am very detail-oriented, and I am also an artist who wanted to incorporate my studio into my home. I was impressed with their willingness to work with me to create a home unique to my personal tastes and needs, truly a custom home and not a carbon copy.
They are meticulous craftsmen who take great pride in their work, qualities which seem to become more and more scarce in today's world. I have been pleased, as well, to observe that they stand behind their work. They addressed and resolved all items on the punch-out list and have been quick to respond to any questions that arose after my move in.
I am enjoying my lovely home, and I think anyone who chose them to build would have a pleasurable experience and would be pleased with the result.

Dear Ed:
As you know the work on our house is now complete and we are delighted! Having closed in the upper deck on our house with windows and sliders truly adds a new dimension to the livability of our waterfront house. We can better enjoy the view of the Santa Rosa Sound and the breeze through the windows is delightful.
Please know that I invited no less than fourteen contractors to my house to offer bids and opted to work with you over all of them. I am very glad that I did. I take this opportunity to commend you on not only your workmanship, but on your dependability, honesty and professionalism. We give you well earned recognition for your fine service.
Should you ever have an occasion to need someone to provide a reference, please feel free to offer him or her my name and telephone number. Thanks again.
Best regards,

I am writing this letter so that anyone who is considering building a house or planning an addition to an existing dwelling, will give Waugh Construction an opportunity to show you what they can do. I contracted with Ed Waugh and his crew to do a 1500 square foot addition to my home. Although I did acquire other bids on this project, Ed was always the front runner because I had previous experience with his skill, knowledge and patience when it comes to making a customer happy.
I first met Ed several years ago when he completed a covered back porch and patio at my house. His expertise at adding something onto an existing structure and making it look like it had always been there was something to see. Not only did this project go well, but he noticed several ways to improve the appearance of my back yard and solved a chronic drainage problem in the process. I was impressed not only by the final appearance of my back porch and patio, but by the pains he took to insure structural integrity of everything he built. He even incorporated some built-in planters that really made my wife happy.
My parents took notice of the type of work that Ed did and contracted him to do a small project, including adding a large covered patio to an existing building. Ed and his crew did a good job and finished in record time. The attention to detail and the extra effort to please my parents on this project really sealed the deal in my mind on which company I would contract to build an addition onto my house.
Finally, I must comment on the workmanship employed on the addition to my own house. With the birth of a daughter, we quickly realized that more space was needed. After talking with several builders, I noticed that Ed was the only one who noticed that the elevation of the land could cause a problem in connecting the roof of the addition to the existing roof on my house. Ed solved the problem and the addition went smoothly. He also designed a laundry room and extra bedroom for us that have proven invaluable. We also converted our garage into a large family room with many built-in features that really added to the appearance and functionality of the living area of our house. Once again, Ed made my wife happy by designing a huge walk-in closet for her. During this entire process, Ed constantly informed me of each step of the construction and really worked with the subcontractors to insure a smooth running project. Many times Ed would notice ways to add convenience to our lives and incorporated these features into our addition. To say the least, the project went well and my family became friends with both Ed and his crew. Even the clean up after the construction was finished and done in a most orderly and neat fashion.
One more thing, and to me the most important, Ed Waugh is a man of honesty and integrity. You can believe what he says and never worry about being cheated or taken advantage of. In today's world of "making a buck," an honest contractor is a rare find. I encourage you to give Waugh Construction a try and decide for yourself if I speak the truth.
Regards,
David Barnes
Ed,

Dear Ed,
Thank you so much for making our addition such a pleasure - you and your guys were so nice. I can't tell you how pleased we are with everything; we feel that you were all very professional and most of all very fair. They say "Word of mouth is the best advertisement." If that is true you should soon have more customers than you can handle!
Thanks so much! All of your guys were great. We all started to feel like they were a part of our family!
Thanks again!

God Bless you all
