My wife and I contracted Desco Fine Homes to tear down our existing M-Streets home and build a larger custom home. Desco Fine Homes is an experienced and professional builder. Their diligence, communication, creativity, and attention to detail gave us an overwhelmingly positive building experience. The project had, as many projects do, snags and last minute custom requests (Pinterest) but David and his team did everything they could to keep us on schedule, on budget and provide us with a home that is truly ours. We could not have asked for more and highly recommend Desco Fine Homes to others looking to build a custom home.

Dear David, Liz and I want to thank you so much for the outstanding renovation work that Desco Fine Homes completed last September. Since we moved in on October 8, we have loved our home in Lake Forest, thanks to your creativity, expert care and supervision over the project. The remodeling work that you performed transformed the house to what we wanted at this stage in our life. This is our second Desco Fine Homes. If there is to be another, you will be called.
Regards, Harry & Liz

David Goettsche, owner of Desco Fine Homes, built our first custom home in 2000 in Preston Hollow North on Aberdeen, and it was a sensational experience. And what a great experience it was from start to finish. David did an exceptional job, was always helpful and available and followed through to make sure we were completely happy with every aspect: a testimonial to his dedication, integrity and customer oriented approach. We raised our kids in the Aberdeen home and when they went off to college and career we decided to downsize and build a new custom home.

We immediately called David Goettsche to begin the process. Once again it was a great pleasure working with David. He was thoughtful, made great suggestions, but was never intrusive. Despite all the commotion that surrounds building a new home, many of our new neighbors went out of their way to tell us how David was the best builder they had ever seen, making sure that their properties and their daily activities were taken into consideration and respected. Our new home turned out perfectly! We are very happy with the exceptional attention to detail and the exquisite fine touches David put on our new home. We would recommend David Goettsche to any and all who want to build a custom home, large or small. David (Desco Fine Homes) is a great builder, a true craftsman and fine person and a pleasure to work with.

Tony and I had a wonderful experience building our home with David Goettsche with Desco Fine Homes. David’s attention to detail, pride for his work, and artistic ability made our home a very special place we have loved for over 10 years. When we were looking for a builder, as soon as we walked David’s houses we knew we wanted him to be our builder. The detail and quality of products stood out in comparison to other builders. David made the building process seamless, he was attentive to our needs, gave valued input wherever needed and delivered our home on time as promised. If we ever have the opportunity to build a home again, Desco Fine Homes would be our first choice.

David built our home 16 years ago and we continue to enjoy the excellent design, workmanship, and quality of its materials. The floor plan worked perfectly on the lot and made the most of the view and lighting.  In addition, David has been quick to repair anything through the years that needed it (It was always caused by us, like a thawed ice maker damaging the floors).  I highly recommend David as an experienced and persistent professional, a perfectionist, and as a trustworthy gentleman who is easy to work with.

Working with Desco Fine Homes was a wonderful experience. David and his entire crew were great to work with, did excellent work – on time and on budget – and were there to provide suggestions and insight on the best way to tackle a project. They never cut corners and delivered great results on every phase of our remodel. They took the initiative to fix things before I even asked and truly delivered on their mission to ‘exceed expectations’. Thank you to your entire crew for a beautiful result and a great experience!

I can pick up the phone and call Dave with any question I may have regarding our home, or home maintenance, nearly ten years later.

Over the past year we have had numerous parties and events at our home with up to forty guests. Everyone has commented on the the quality of our home and the outstanding features in every room.

I would like to thank you so much for handling the complete remodel of my master bathroom. This was a project I was not looking forward to and a little apprehensive about doing. You made the experience very positive…You are truly a man of your word and it was my pleasure to get to know you and work with you.

When we had initial thoughts of building our home, we chose David Goettsche and Desco Fine Homes The entire experience was conducted around Desco’s personal service. From the sharp penciled architect, the unique interior design team and the truly conscientious sub contractors, every detail was addressed…From the day of construction until we moved in to our home, every need was met and our high standards were far exceeded.

We appreciated David’s flexibility regarding our needs, and his tremendous attention to detail. Our house is somewhat different than most but the whole Desco team was extremely supportive in helping us realize our goals.

We are so fortunate that we contracted you to build our home…Your attention to detail and quality of work is second to none. Thank you for making our first experience of building a home an incredibly pleasant one.

I couldn’t miss telling you what a truly great experience it was watching you build our new home. As you know there were many builders in the Lakewood area to choose from and I feel very fortunate that we were introduced to you. Your guidance and supervision in building our custom home was exceptional. I really appreciated being able to work so closely with you and to have you guide us through so many decisions. David, you are a very gifted builder with such a focus on details and timelines. I think what stands out the most in my mind when I think back on the journey of building our home is one specific characteristic: You are honest and dependable. When you said something, I never had to worry. You always came through and even after we moved into our new house, we felt so secure in your workmanship and follow up that if there had been a problem, we knew you would be there for us and will be there for us.

The best feeling of all though comes from listening to several of our neighbors who used other builders, complain about their builders lack of communication and follow up after they moved into their homes. The Desco Fine Homes building experience was really a fun and exciting journey and I hope I am fortunate enough to build another home with you and your staff.

I am the second owner of a Desco Fine Homes home built in 1998. I bought my home in 2003, and shortly thereafter, there were some problems that arose. David Goettsche stepped up and treated me as if I was his client, when I really was not. Ever since, he has acted as though he built the house for me.
