Our experience with Kyle Snow during the building process was top notch. He was punctual during our meetings, very open in communication throughout the process, and is very in tune with the finer details. Kyle has gone above and beyond for us both during the process and after completion to address any remaining concerns that we've had. There were some hiccups at the beginning of our process, but ultimately, Grand Endeavor seamlessly resolved the issues in the end. Kyle's input and knowledge would have been greatly appreciated during our blueprint and sketching phase as there were some unexpected changes that had to be made once the build began and some other details we would have considered if these were known beforehand. Overall we are thoroughly happy with the results and would highly recommend Grand Endeavor Homes to anyone looking to build a high quality custom home!

Kyler Payne was very meticulous, patient and understanding in his handling of building our home. He paid attention to every detail and included our inputs and suggestions. He communicated effectively and showed excellent ability to problem solve, very responsive to our concerns, and showed dedication to ensuring quality workmanship throughout the construction process. Additionally, he demonstrated strong leadership qualities, fostering a positive working environment for their team. We are also pleased with Grand endeavor staff-Lindsey, Rachael, Matt Deputy and Maurine.

Our Building Experience with Grand Endeavor Homes was exceptional! From start to finish we were well informed and taken care of throughout the design AND build process. We were lucky enough to have Kyle there every step of the way to answer any questions we had and to communicate with us about each process. Highly recommend the staff and service of this company! Looking forward to enjoying our house for years to come! Thank you!

We recently moved into our home in the Canyons at HCH ranch. Our home has been a joy to live in and Grand Endeavor does quality work. We built from out of state which made it difficult to make sure our home was being built to our specifications. However, during the second half of our build we were extremely lucky to have Kyler Payne become our superintendent.
He was probably the best part of this whole process. Responsive, organized, and just a decent person. He brought this build across the finish line and went above and beyond where he could to make sure everything was done right. To this day he has still helped us if an issue comes up. He even saved us early one morning when a backflow valve burst during an overnight freeze. We are extremely grateful for him. He is a great asset to the new Canyons community and to Grand Endeavor Homes.

First and foremost, we would have never heard of, nor reached out to Grand Endeavor Homes if it wasn't for Lindsey Ledyard as we received a hand-written note describing Grand Endeavor in our mailbox in San Marcos, Texas. Everything on paper checked our blocks, and when researching the company, the designs matched our taste. We contacted Matt Deputy and he was nothing short of amazing.
He met us at our land and described the process in detail. His reoccurring words, were no pressure', and we did not feel any pressure the entire time we were thinking of building. This was huge, as we met with other builders and EVERY builder pressured us into signing and wanted our floor plans (which we did not have). Every time I called Matt, which was quite often, he fielded my call with patience and grace, and guided us with the answers we needed.
It took us a year to sign the contract, and Matt often called just to check on us, again with no intent or pressure for us to sign. When we did sign, Matt knew what we were wanting as a custom floorplan and helped us develop and draw-up (from scratch) a beautiful floorplan that is now our home. Even when we were finished with Matt and his process, he still called and check up on us, and I to this date keep in contact with Matt.
He is one of the salt of the earth humans! Matt was accommodating and kind the entire way! The process then took us to Kristen Crandall Hammers, at the design center. Kristen was extremely patient with us. When we went into our first design appointment, we did not know what we wanted, but she guided us with homework and scheduled another appointment.
We were much more prepared and she assisted with us with ALL that we needed. Kristen was great to communicate and work with, as she responded quick and gave us a lot of recommendations that were prudent to our home. She was an invaluable asset to us! When the build was to commence, we met Tyler Richards, who I cannot put into words how much he means to us.
He fielded EVERY one of my calls, was responsive, on time, communicated wonderfully and was very approachable in all his dealings. Tyler gave us recommendations as this was his home with his family, and he treated our home and us, as aforementioned. Tyler is also one of the most decent human beings alive, and is extremely thoughtful and personable. Tyler built our home with precision and every detail was immaculate. Tyler still answers calls and follows up with us with each question we have.
He is by far the best construction superintendent! Each phase of the process was streamlined and thoroughly explained. We enjoyed each phase as a new phase did not start until the previous phase was completed. This was important as it did not overwhelm us at all. Clarity, GREAT communication and follow-through were keys to our successful experience.
The experience was a wonderful one. We have heard that building a home is tough, lengthy and often things do not go as planned as building materials are scarce etc. This was not the case in our experience, quite the opposite. Brittany & Jerry

Kyler Payne was our superintendent. He was fantastic. Kyler was incredibly attentive to detail, fast to respond, never required any follow-up, always professional, and just wanted to build a great house that we loved. We highly recommend him. Grand Endeavor builds great houses and Kyler makes it a great experience as well. Thank you. Pat and Karen

We had an outstanding experience for our first custom build with Grand Endeavor Homes! After purchasing our land, we took our time selecting a builder and the experience with our sales rep, Matt, was so helpful and informational explaining to us the best way to utilize our land to build our dream home without having to cut down our beautiful oak trees. Tyler, our builder, was also phenomenal and made this experience stress free. We always felt involved and heard if we had any questions or concerns. I would 10/10 build with them again although we hope to remain in our home for years to come!

I recently had the pleasure of working with Matt D. from Grand Endeavor Homes during a home-building experience with some buyers I am working with. I can't say enough about the outstanding service and support he is providing. Matt went above and beyond to make their experience as smooth and stress-free as possible. Even before the buyers purchased their lot, Matt made a site evaluation trip to help determine if this was the right lot for them.
His thorough knowledge of the area helped the buyers move forward with the purchase. Communication with Matt continues to be a breeze. He answered our many questions with patience and clarified the answers before we even asked them. I would not hesitate to recommend Matt and Grand Endeavor homes for anyone looking to build in the Greater Austin Area.

Grand Endeavor Homes did an excellent job with our custom home build! This was our first time building a home. and from out of state. The communication, attention to detail, professionalism, and overall care was very important to us and executed extremely well. Our superintendent, Kyler Payne, has been phenomenal during and after the build process! I highly recommend GEH and Kyler. Thank you so much for all of your hard work.

We highly recommend Grand Endeavor Homes. Kyler Payne was our Super for our custom home. Kyler was a professional, knowledgeable and a perfectionist. Which is what you want when building your forever home. Kyler is also a pleasure to work with. They built a high end quality home for us. You can't go wrong partnering with GEH. Be sure to ask for Kyler!.

We are VERY HAPPY with our new Grand Endeavor Home and would strongly recommend them to anyone looking for a high-quality and high-integrity home builder. We were very fortunate to have Kyler Payne assigned as our building superintendent. He is knowledgeable, a strong communicator, and attentive to the details. We greatly appreciated and thank Kyler for his efforts.
We built during the pandemic which magnifies the normal challenges of building a new house. But GEH navigated those challenges gracefully and came up with good options when supply chain or other issues threw us a curve ball. Stated simply, GEH is a quality organization that does the right thing, and truly cares about providing quality and making their customers happy.
I have to call-out their stellar after sale (warranty) support. They have been equally attentive and responsive after our closing. We are not hearing that from our neighbors who used other builders that "disappear" after the closing. That is the ultimate sign of a company with true integrity.they work as hard after the sale as they did on the front-end to earn our business. We would build again with GEH in a heartbeat and recommend them without reservation.

Grand Endeavor just completed my custom home on Lake Travis and Phil Walsh was the construction superintendent. I am a roofing contractor in the Austin and San Antonio market and my primary customers are single family production builders like Highland Homes, Coventry, Gehan, Lennar, Meritage, KB Homes, and others. Through all my accounts I interact daily with supervisors for the builder, over 100.
I am on new home jobsites everyday. I know when you lift the hood and look inside a builders business nothing matters other than the quality and reliability of their trade base. The subcontractors; plumbers, electricians, foundation, dry wall, cabinet subcontractors, etc., literally are the builder. That's who builds your house and the superintendent is who organizes, schedules and inspects the work.
That's what you evaluate in choosing a builder. But unfortunately you cant see that until you sign. Often, me and my wife included, when building a dream home the focus is on design, floorplan, flooring, cabinet and all the selections we get to make. That's fun; but after that is when the choice of the builder chosen matters. You can have fun making selections with any builder but once done construction begins and reality sets in if I chose the right builder.
I closed on the loan and started paying interest on the construction loan. I was financing the project and Grand Endeavor was my contractor. How fast and on schedule matters as I am paying and financing the construction, the same as any developer building a shopping mall. Grand Endeavor became clear we made the right choice. All these critical issues were realized.
Multiple trades on site simultaneously, completed trade work first go around, attention to detail, full inspections of all trades work by Phil and trades that showed up continually. Beautiful. If Lake Travis stays dry, pray for rain, and we have to build another dream home no research necessary, I have my builder. And by the way the roofer they use has been their roofer for over 10 years, like many of the trades they use, and they won't change. And I even bought a house from them. $1.2MM. Bummer. Check out our Grand Endeavor home. Pics attached.

I really can't say enough about the experience we had with Grand Endeavor. We heard nightmare stories from friends in the home building process, so we were prepared for a struggle. But our entire home building experience was seamless! NO hiccups, no drama, no time delays. Just a straight up, honest, responsive, attentive, quality experience. They built our DREAM HOME that is beautiful but also durable.
I would recommend them to anyone wanting to build a home. (Brad was our superintendent and he was awesome! So professional, detail oriented and held great communication with us through the entire process.)

Everyone says building a new home is stressful, especially in the current market. My experience with Kyler Payne at Grand Endeavor was exceptional and seamless. This was my first time building a home and Kyler went above and beyond to make sure I had the best experience possible. He is extremely knowledgeable about the industry and I trusted his judgement every step of the way.
He was more than willing to stop along the way and explain things in a way that made sense to me. He has an amazing attention to detail and has very high standards of quality from his subcontractors. Kyler has exception scheduling skills and was recently able to complete my home about 3 months ahead of schedule! He communicated regularly through the Buildertrend app as well as email, text, and phone calls. I would not hesitate to build again with Kyler and Grand Endeavor. They have certainly set the bar very high!

When my wife and I set out to find a builder for our new home, we spoke to several other home builders before sitting down with the folks at Grand Endeavor. Walking into their very impressive model in Liberty Hill, our first assumption was that they would be well outside our price range. As we started discussing pricing with their Build on Your Lot team we were blown away at the caliber of home that they could build for an extremely competitive price.
We were even more excited to hear that they could build on our lot that was a little farther outside of the Austin metro area than several of the other builders were willing to travel. After signing with GE, we continued to be impressed with their ability to deliver a premium product at a great price in under 1 year, despite global supply chain and labor constraints.
Our building superintendent, Phil Wash, was an absolute pleasure to work with! He is a diligent and efficient project manager with an incredible understanding of building processes and materials. Any challenges that arose throughout the build were effectively communicated through their very user friendly "Builder Trend" app and he was extremely responsive to any questions that we had along the way.
He was always more than willing to go the extra mile to help us understand the current build phase and would meet us onsite as needed to show current status or answer questions. We moved in last week and I'm still in awe of this place. The build quality is truly top notch.

What a Christmas present! As I write this review, we are happy new owners of a beautiful new Grand Endeavor Home. My wife and I would like to thank all of the people who made this possible. Our journey with Grand Endeavor started out with a phone call to a number on a billboard one afternoon. Within the hour the call was promptly returned by Matt Deputy, who assured us that we had called the right builder. Matt met us at the property a few days later and was the first introduction to a very well-run company.
At our preconstruction meeting we were introduced to several other Grand Endeavor employees including our project manager Phil Walsh. During a time of supply shortages, labor shortages, and all the other post pandemic problems, Phil Walsh was superb. Phil kept us informed throughout the process, answered all of our questions and concerns in a timely manner, and consistently delivered on what he promised.
We were very fortunate to have Phil in our corner! Being that this was our first time to build a house, we were a bit worried about how we would ever be able to make all the selections required to finish a house, and also worried we might also make some "wrong" selections. That worry was put to rest when we were introduced to Kristen Crandall. Kristen is a professional and is simply great at what she does. Kristen helped us navigate through the selection process.
She developed a sense of what we were hoping to build and provided many options that helped us stay the course. Lastly, we would like to thank Maurine Janke. Maurine assisted us with our contract, draws and lender related items which let us know where we stood financially throughout the build process. Grand Endeavor built us a beautiful house within our budget and completed it on time. Thank you, Grand Endeavor!

From start to finish the experience has been very positive. My salesman Matt, Was always very responsive and helpful. When my house was being built, my Formans Chad and Kyle were very attentive to detail and always addressed any issues or questions I had right away. I made several changes from the original design and they were always very positive on my request and happy to make the changes. I love my house and was happy with the process.

We recently moved in our Grand Endeavor Home and could not be more pleased with the process and end result. Much of that was thanks to our construction superintendent, Kyler Payne, who facilitated our long-distance build. Kyler kept us updated constantly with photos of the progress on our home as well as a log he kept up with on the app. Whenever we had a question or concern, he was quick to respond and is still in contact with us to ensure we are satisfied with our build since we moved in. Would highly recommend him and GEH for anyone considering new construction.

Our home building experience with Grand Endeavor was nothing short of wonderful! We decided to build on our own lot and every step of the home building process was fantastic. Our sales representative, Matt Deputy was super knowledgable, friendly and met us at our land several times to ensure we were building the right home for our family. We truly appreciated his patience as we switched our floor plan several times to make our custom home fit into our budget.
We worked with an amazing interior designer, Kristen Crandall, who helped us every step of the way in designing this home. When Grand Endeavor says you're building a "custom home" they aren't joking! Everyone needs a Kristen in their life to help them through this process. 10/10 recommend her professional opinion and great eye for design. Our superintendent, Brad Greenlee is truly top notch!
This is the 4th home we have built over the past 10 years and they don't come any better than Brad. I could literally write a novel on why Brad is amazing- but you should probably just build with Grand Endeavor and find out first hand. I'll start by saying Brad's communication skills are superior to any other builder we've worked with. Brad answered every single phone call, text and email we thew at him with urgency.
He constantly went above and beyond when it came to our build, his attention to detail, extreme organization and ability to juggle a million tasks is impressive. We truly appreciated Brad's sense of humor and outgoing personality. It's not everyday you can say you've made a friend for life during this process. Sorry Brad- you're stuck with us! As a whole, Grand Endeavor was very transparent in process and pricing.
They set reasonable expectations on timelines and when to expect to close on our home. The office staff was always friendly, helpful and prompt to answer any questions we had. We absolutely recommend building with Grand Endeavor. Thank you Grand Endeavor for building our dream home! - The Givens Family

When we started the process of building our custom home, we had the pleasure of working with Chad Cornell as our superintendent. He was very responsive to what we wanted and was great to work with, but we think he was over extended with all the homes going up. They brought in Kyler Payne about halfway through the build and assigned him as our new superintendent.
From day one he was thrown in to pickup where Chad had left off and I'm sure it wasn't easy for him to come into a project that he had not started. His customer service skills and abilities to get the job moving at a faster pace, as well as being very responsive to our questions or issues was awesome. Kyler, thank you for all your hard work and being a great superintendent to work with. We appreciate all that you did for us in making our dream home come to life. I hope Grand Endeavor knows how lucky they are to have you!

Grand Endeavor exceeded our expectations at every step of the process. We selected one of their designs and customized it inside and out to accommodate some of our unique desires. GE was quick with new floor plans and didn't charge us for the changes. They completed our house in less than 8 mos from ground-breaking to close. All throughout the process James, our superintendent, was communicative, responsive, and attentive to detail.
We happen to live on the property as it was built and were able to witness every nuance of the process. I was able to speak with James almost daily about what was happening so we could make the best decisions for our desired outcome. The process could not have gone smoother.

We contracted with Grand Endeavor (GE) through their "build on your own lot" program and they exceeded our expectations in almost every way. The design and contracting process was very seamless and transparent. When compared to other builders we quoted out, GE was extremely competitive but superior in quality and customer service. Despite the industry challenges with labor and material shortages, construction had started within just a couple weeks after closing on the construction loan and progressed to completion with very few, and otherwise minor delays.
Our Superintendent, Kyler Payne, was fantastic to work with. He was very professional, communicated regularly to keep us up to date on progress and was very transparent about issues/concerns/risks that would come up along the way. He addressed issues immediately and ensured that anything that was not done to standard was corrected before we moved to the next step.
With increased labor and material prices we did see a couple minor overages on concrete and well drilling, but GE was very transparent with those additional costs and worked closely with us to minimize the financial impact to our family as much as possible. In short, I will be recommending GE to anyone I know who is looking to build a new home and if I ever need to build again, they will be the first place I call.
Our Superintendent, Kyler Payne, was fantastic to work with. He was very professional, communicated regularly to keep us up to date on progress and was very transparent about issues/concerns/risks that would come up along the way.

We had a great experience building with Grand Endeavors homes. This is my families second home with them and we are even more satisfied as we lived on site during the build. James did a wonderful job keeping the project moving along and keeping us updated on what work was being completed each week. He always took the time to answer all my questions and promptly answered all emails! We highly recommend Grand Endeavor for anyone looking to build a new home.

We LOVE our grand endeavor home. The finish out is phenomenal. We had an amazing experience every step of the way. 95% of our fantastic experience is due to our superintendent Kyler Payne. He always went above and beyond to help with concerns and fix any issues(which wasn't much) along the way. He responded in quick manner when we had questions and always reassured that we were getting everything we asked for when the build began. Thank you kyler! Highly recommend GE to anyone looking to build their dream home.

I am very pleased with my new home built by Grand Endeavor Homes. My home is absolutely beautiful! I chose GEH because I wanted to go with an established builder with a great reputation that would absorb any labor or material cost overruns caused by the pandemic. I am very happy to say that they delivered! They managed all the Covid -driven hiccups insulating me from the drama. Superintendent Chad Cornell did an amazing job overseeing the construction of my home.
I really appreciate all the time and effort he put in to complete my home. He took pride in his work product and really cared about my satisfaction. The knowledge and experience he demonstrated really made me feel comfortable with the process and final product. I would absolutely use GEH again. I have already recommended them to one neighbor and would not hesitate to do so again. Brian

We did build on your lot with Grand Endeavor Homes and had an amazing experience with the entire team. We were always kept up to date with everything and had help and assistance from the moment we reached out until even after we moved in. We almost went with another builder but had a chance to sit down with GEH and they were able to offer more customization and project management which we needed for building on our lot. Even if your future goal is to build on your lot, give them a call. You'll be impressed with the quality of their work.

We started our custon home build process with Grand Endeavor in early 2021. I had a very specific vision for my home and was able to achieve it with the GE team. They built on property we already owned and managed the process very professionally. We had a few misunderstandings and friction points but when your building a 4,000 Sq ft custom home during a material shortage and supply chain crisis, on top of a severe labor shortage, I could not have asked for more from the GE team. Especailly my builder Phil.
Building a custom home is challenging but the GE team and Phil made the process and final product, my new home, beautiful. I will build my next home with GE and only if I can work with Phil again.

We absolutely love our new Grand Endeavor Home. Building during a pandemic comes with it's own challenges, and Grand Endeavor stepped up at every turn. Our construction manager Phil was always on top of communication and worked to foresee any issues before they were issues. We would highly recommend Grand Endeavor Homes to anyone looking to build in Central Texas area.

Taking the time to research and analyze which custom home builder to choose can be difficult considering how saturated the market is. If you're weighing out your options on who to trust to build a beautiful home, you will absolutely not regret going with Grand Endeavor. The first thing to recognize is the value for the quality of workmanship that is competitively priced as compared to other home builders.
The second is the professionalism of the staff you'll interact with from start to finish. This is where Grand Endeavor shines and where we were very blessed to have the absolute best superintendent we have ever worked with. Kyler is an absolute rock star and such a great asset for both of us and GEH. He's extremely responsive in his communication, keeping us up to date on every last detail and providing great context on any issues or delays we may have experienced (we built our home in the height of the pandemic).
His quality assurance for every trade/service was excellent and he pushed to meet every deadline that was set to ensure we could close on our home within the predetermined dates provided. All of this in itself allowed for a great experience, but the most impactful differentiator is the fact that he was an amazing advocate for us throughout the entire build.
He genuinely cared that the finished product was something we were 100% satisfied with and took every opportunity to go above and beyond what we expected. With other family members having a similar experience with their supers for their own home construction, it's safe to say that Grand Endeavor offers a consistent level of service for high quality premium homes.

We used Grand Endeavor Homes to build on our property in Bertram. They provided guidance on layout and cost of design changes and helped us stay in budget and get the things that were important to us. Several things in the beginning of the process were frustrating. Pricing on flooring upgrades was less than transparent and ended up adding about $5,000 that I had not intended to spend.
The 3 month lag between the time we agreed to everything, provided a deposit, and closed on our loan and the beginning of construction was frustrating. After construction began the Construction Manager did a great job keeping everything on schedule. We were able to move in 2 weeks ahead of the projected completion time. Phil was able to make things look good and maximize functionality within the budget.
I tried for a few add ons and he gave me the prices and choices. He was easy to stay in contact with, always answering the phone or returning calls in a reasonable amount of time. Overall, I the Grand Endeavor did a great job. The project was done on time and on budget. The house is everything we wanted and we hope that this is our forever home. If something changes and we need to build again I would absolutely us them as the builder again. Dan Woods

Our experience with Grand Endeavor Homes was extremely positive. From the moment we walked through the model home until we closed on our house, all of those with whom we came in contact were friendly, professional, honest and communicative. Our superintendents, James and Kyler, were responsive to all of our questions with the utmost positive attitude.
It is apparent that GEH values quality, craftsmanship, communication, positivity and meeting the customers' needs. We highly recommend Grand Endeavor Homes. Ray and Kathryn Gearld

We just finished our new custom home with Grand Endeavors and couldn't be happier with end-results. We wouldn't change a thing! The superintendent(s) were top-notch and always willing to listen to our concerns and problem solve very quickly - treating our project as if it was their own. They have a great design team that really brought our vision to the next level! It's been a tough year, but the builder did an awesome job of anticipating delays in products and keeping our build on schedule. Thanks to the entire team at Grand Endeavor!

This was our first custom home build and we looked at over a dozen custom home builders before ultimately selecting Grand Endeavor Homes. The quality and finish work is really what sold us. It was simply a level above the rest. Grand Endeavor Homes has a detailed and streamlined process. From design to handing over the keys. They have an in house architect if you don't have plans.
The crews they use are very good. Once they broke ground, the house went up quickly! The entire staff was extremely nice and responsive to any inquiries. Our superintendent Brian was a superstar. Professional, organized, responsive and very patient. Thank you GEH! James

When my wife and I were thinking of building a custom home, I had know question who I wanted to use. Our old home was one of the last Jimmy Jacobs' homes on paper. We were very pleased with the craftsmanship and attention to detail. Knowing there was a bloodline that flowed to Grand Endeavors, I knew it would be the same. Jimmy Warren was great to work with on my design and gets all the credit for the hidden pantry. Tyler might be one of the nicest Super Intendents I have ever met. Tyler always stayed calm when something did not go my way and was sure to get it rectified. Tom, Racheal, and the whole crew at GEH was awesome through the process. At the end, I have a beautiful new home designed the exact way I wanted it. I would highly recommend anyone thinking of building a custom home to use GEH.

Our experience with Grand Endeavor was top notch. Everyone we dealt with, from Jimmy in the beginning, to Brian to this day, were professional, caring, and 100% on point. All commitments that were made, were met. Our vision for a custom home was embraced by the entire team and they worked tirelessly to make that vision a reality. Kudos to Brian for working so hard to manage the chaos that is a build site. No shortcuts, no excuses. If it wasn't right, he got it fixed. We felt like we had the A-team on our project and I think the end result proves it.

The Grand Endeavor Homes Team was great form beginning, to move in, to today! From the start with Jimmy "Jimmy Said" Warren to the design team and the architects, we were always on the same page. We took an existing home design and modified it to accommodate our permanent home in 7 Creeks Ranch. Brian Gustison and his team worked with us through two different home plans and always had an upbeat ready to serve attitude. Brian our superintendent continues to be our go to guy anytime we have questions and guess how shows up. Brian does! You guys rock. Thanks for being part of our dream and helping it start to come true!

Grand Endeavor Homes were such a pleasure do deal with from the very beginning all they way through the whole process. I couldn't be more happy to be a proud owner of their product. The customer service was outstanding. They all were there from the owner to the construction superintendent to the construction manager. This team of folks are second to none.
There homes are far more superior to me than any builder in the Austin Texas area. The craftsmanship and their attention to detail is unmatched. I truly couldn't be any happier with my dream home investment. I would highly suggest and recommend Grand Endeavor Homes for your future home choice. Thanks so much Mr. Jacobs, company and all the subcontractors they use.
