Testimonials

What Our Customers Say

Below are just a few of the testimonials we have received from our customers.

CREATE OUR DREAM

Alternative Modular Homes and Mary Anna Palmer helped us create our dream. From the moment we walked into the door, she made us feel like our hopes were in capable hands. She demonstrated superior knowledge of the industry, she worked with us to get the specifications exactly right and she had valuable connections to help make every aspect of our plan come to life.

Alternative Modular Homes wasn’t overwhelmed by the landscape of the property. They knew the limits of the equipment and how we could make the most of the angles of the hill and the sun’s direction. They asked us if there were any trees, we felt a special connection to so they could save them.

 

They hired the right surveyors and left no stone unturned with the town and title company. There was an attention to detail without sacrificing a personal, familiar touch. The whole project was done quickly and under budget and we were informed of specific turning points in the project. I’m never moving again, but if I overhear anyone at the coffee shop stating that they need a project manager for building a home, I will make sure they know they can trust Mary Anna Palmer.

The Fletcher family

THANK YOU

Mary Anna and John genuinely took the time to make sure that they were building a quality home for our family. And just in time, as we were in our home mere weeks before we welcomed our daughter into our lives and home!

A GREAT EXPERIENCE

We would recommend Alternative Modular Homes to anyone interested in a new home. Mary Anna and John handled every detail imaginable concerning home building from the foundation up. They spared us all of the headaches of dealing with regulations that we had not even anticipated.

Reggie and Louise, Lewiston, Maine
