“I’m writing on behalf of both Maureen and myself to thank you for the work you’ve done on our home.  As we have said before, we have really appreciated the excellent communication that you have maintained throughout the project. 

“We love our Halprin designed and built house. After looking for a larger home, for our family, in the Wing Lake area for more than two years we decided the only way to get what we wanted was to design and build a house with Brian.

“We have been very pleased and would highly recommend Brian Halprin as a builder and architect. We have the pleasure of living in a Halprin Construction Home, and we appreciate the attention to detail, the unique architectural touches and the fine quality of craftsmanship throughout.

“Working with Brian Halprin of Halprin Construction has been a pleasure. Brian is conscientious, and truly cares about the product that he puts his name on. The fact that Brian is a builder and an architect helped to make the whole process easy and concise.

“We thoroughly enjoyed our design and building experience with Brian Halprin of Halprin Construction. Brian told us several times during construction that, “I am building a home for you, not me”, and he meant it. He built a home to meet our needs,

“Susan and I want you to know we are both very appreciative of the special care and attention you have devoted to this project, and we are thankful we selected Halprin Construction to complete the vision.”

“Brian is a pleasure to work with.  He is a professional, detail oriented, and truly listens to his clients wishes.  Best of all, his projects come in on time and on budget!  I have had the opportunity to resell a Halprin Construction home that I sold to the original owner as a new build;  

“A job took us from our much loved “dream home” on Wing Lake Road to another state.  Eight years later it was time to move back to Michigan.  We saw a lot just 2 lots away from the house we’d sold. 

“Brian and his team do a great job in walking step by step with you through a process that can be very intimidating. His professionalism, organization, and open communication no doubt drive his results. Our project came in under budget,

“It is always a pleasure to refer a client to a professional who I know does good work and is a professional. Unfortunately, it is not so easy to find someone who takes the kind of pride in their work that you do.”

“We hired Brian for an 800-square-foot home addition for three main reasons: First, he came highly recommended from friends whose house he’d designed and built; second, we liked the idea of an architect, builder and general contractor all in one person;

“Brian worked with us to improve the energy efficiency of our classic, mid-century home.  He approached the project with careful consideration and planning before bringing in any of his subs.  His design plan was professionally written with explanation of work to be done and the benefit we would yield.  

“Our project is aiming for LEED Platinum certification, the highest available. This puts an extra burden on the contractor to make sure that not only are products in line with LEED standards, but the process of building becomes more complex.

“Very impressed with GBS – they took care of me.  Their contractors were professional, knowledgeable and cleaned up after themselves.  And finally, it’s so nice to feel warm, not drafty, this winter.  I can see the wind blowing, but can’t feel it or even hear it.”

“When Brian and Brad came to look at the house last fall, I could tell from discussions with them that they were very knowledgeable about building and energy conservation. For parts of the job that I thought would be difficult to handle,
