Default Small size home builders Engelwood/Rotunda

can anyone recommend a smaller size builder in the Rotunda area? I dont want to got with a big company for reasons involvbed in our emigration , so a 'one man band' type outfit would be much more preferable.

Basically i wnat to employ someone to build a home but want to be bale to over see it myself.

Thanks

Thanks Mr. Tudo!

If I were building I would use Mark Tarantino, owner of PCI Custom Homes. He was working with Lee Wetherington (broken link), a very well known and well respected high end custom builder. There are a few things I like about Mark--he can build a simple affordable home or a high end custom home, so he can conform to any budget. He has many homes that he can show you that he's built. He's also a super nice guy and very easy to work with.

PCI is a smaller type builder like you mentioned. They actually have a billboard on 776 on your way out to Rotonda from Port Charlotte. I have a few others that I could give you info on but he's at the top of the list. Please feel free to DM me for more details.

I live in Rotonda and have walked through many homes being built here in the past 4 years. I would recommend Brian Gonsalves, he is a one man show at Bri-Gon Brigon Homes, LLC - A Southwest Florida Residential Homebuilder, he has built some beautiful custom homes in Rotonda and S. Gulf Cove. Also Richard St. Clair is a custom builder, family business in Rotonda St. Clair Custom Homes. with beautiful homes completed here. Good luck! You will love Rotonda!

Check out Edgewater Homes and G. Patrick Bourgeois & Associates. G. Patrick Bourgeois has been building in and around the Rotonda area for around 20 years with many satisfied customers. They are a small company that can build you what you need for a decent price. They are a family run company so you will always be talking to someone who has a vested interest in the company and not some hourly employee.

They have an interior designer on staff that can help you pick all of your colours/furnishings, etc. and have dealt with foreign buyers/customers in the past. I would highly recommend them as they can build one of their many floor plans or work with you to build something you bring to them.

In addition, if you aren't local, they can send you pictures of the progress so you can see what is happening during your build.
