I had always dreamed of building a custom home and it was exciting every step of the way. Beyond Bill’s expert craftsmanship, are his honesty, integrity, and strong code of ethics. These aspects of his character contribute to each step of the building process, from the day you commence until the finished product is unveiled. The superior quality of workmanship he expects from himself and his subs produces a beautiful and flawless home. Bill was patient with me as we worked through the design phase, enabling me to have all the features in a home that I desired as well as many I didn’t even know were possible! His ability to hone in on my design style enabled him to make suggestions and recommendations that perfectly suited me. He gave me a gorgeous home that I will be able to enjoy for many years to come.”
“The thing that comes to mind is Integrity and painstaking devotion to quality workmanship. From the time I first met Bill while the house was still in mid production I knew that Bill’s commitment to his customers was top rate. There are so many things that has helped make his vision our home from the orientation of the house to the detailed trim. Little things that help keep the house cool in summer and warm in winter like orientation so sun doesn’t come in, blown insulation, creative heating/cooling systems, placement of cutoff valves to the aesthetics from high vaulted ceilings, magnificent trim work, and a flowing design that is both efficient and eye pleasing. Even when items popped up during the breaking period of the house settling, Bill was responsive and the items were corrected. I have enjoyed working with Bill and look forward to many happy years in our home.”
“My husband and I had been searching for a location to build our new home. When we finally decided on Villages of Apex it was in part due to the style of homes. I loved the fact that they weren’t all “cookie cutter” and having custom builders gave it that individual uniqueness. I knew I found our builder when all the homes that stuck out for me were all built by Bill Cotton and after meeting him, it was obvious that we had struck GOLD!! We were hesitant to build again after a negative building experience with our first home and knowing we would have to do this from long distance while our son finished out school added to our concern. From day one though, Bill and his superb team made us feel at ease. Excellent communication throughout and any questions were answered in a timely manner. His attention to detail showed in every room. We always felt a part of the whole process and at the end of it all were given the keys to a beautiful home that we couldn’t be more proud of. We don’t just consider Bill Cotton our builder; we are honored to consider him our friend.”
“We moved from Maryland to Apex and by chance happened to find Bill after looking at many homes in other developments that we were not impressed by. After touring several homes that Bill had built and speaking with the homeowners, we knew that we had found the right builder. The attention to detail, quality of materials, delivery before scheduled completion and excellent communication between Bill and ourselves added to our overall satisfaction. Bill kept us up to date on the construction process, answered all our concerns in a timely manner, and assisted us in choosing the materials that went into our home.”
“We had already interviewed several builders before we met with Bill Cotton. We knew immediately that he was the right builder for us. We were impressed with his honesty, attention to detail, full transparency on the budget, and just a downright personable guy. Our home was completed on-time, on budget and is a BEAUTY. Everyone who is part of Bill’s team (Tim, Anita, Jason, Dan)….all first-class people. We feel blessed that Cotton Custom Homes built our house.”
“We have worked with several builders in the past; however, no other builder that we’ve worked with is as professional as Cotton Custom Homes. We met with Bill and his team several times throughout the building process, and we always left those meetings with a peace of mind that our home would be built to the highest standards of quality. Bill and his team are responsive and timely communicators. They went above and beyond our expectations in both the quality of the build and customer service. We cannot say enough wonderful things about our experience with Cotton Custom Homes!”
“Cotton Custom Homes remodeled our kitchen in March, 2016. We knew Bill personally, and received positive referrals from his customers. We had never renovated any part of our home before, and were anxious about the process, but Bill put our minds at ease, and he delivered. From the beginning, there was good communication from him and the project manager, Tim. The work was done on schedule. Best of all, it came out beautifully. Bill has excellent subcontractors, who arrived on time, did what they had promised, and cleaned up before they left. This was a full kitchen remodel: Bill’s team replaced the cabinets and countertops, painted, and added a tile backsplash that set the room apart. The next room we update in our 1988 home will be remodeled by Cotton Custom Homes.”
“Our experience with Cotton Custom Homes was 100% a positive one! Bill and his team were there working with us , listening to us, supporting us and accommodating us from start to finish. Bill Cotton and his team, such a great team to work with! The very first time we met Bill and his team, we felt like we knew them for quite sometime because the way Bill and his team welcomed us to their office. Cotton Custom Homes worked really hard since the very first time we met them. We were probably one of the most challenging and detail oriented customers but Bill and his team satisfied every single one of our new home requirements. Bill’s team truly treated us like family from day one. Our house has been completed, we have moved and are very happy in our new home and Cotton Custom Homes still follow-up just in case we have questions. Bill and his team have truly gone above and beyond assisting us throughout the entire home-building process. Having Cotton Custom Homes as our builder was such a wonderful experience after we had a terrible experience of dealing with one of the national builders in the past! Thank you Bill Cotton and your team for building our retirement home, for your honesty and dedication!!!!!!!!!!!!”
“Bill and his staff build quality homes with an easy process! They are easy to work with and very knowledgeable. Questions and concerns were handled professionally with always a happy customer at the end! We would recommend to anyone.”
“We met Bill and Mike with Cotton Custom Homes after meeting with another highly recommended custom builder in the area. We were instantly impressed with the professionalism and value we felt as a potential customer. We knew right away we were going to trust Bill and team with building our dream home. It was the right decision. Bill was there through every step of the architectural design phase and property layout and permitting. Mike was there through every step of the vendor selection process and purchasing and Tim was there making sure the construction phase went as perfect as we could ever imagine. In the end, our business partnership transformed into a friendship. On the first meeting we were given an estimate move in date of approximately 7 months from groundbreaking to closing. We moved in in exactly 7 months! We highly recommend Cotton Custom Homes for your project.”
