Satisfied Home Owner's Testimonials
Hi Heidi and Dave,
We want to thank you for building our "custom dream home".
From breaking ground, to receiving our CO in an almost unbelievable 5 months.
We had been thinking about building and moving down to Cape Coral from New Jersey for some time now, but when you company made us an offer we could not refuse, we immediately called you.
In turn you recommended an architectural drafting firm that drew up our plans, and after that, that's when Heidi and Dave took over.
We were lucky enough to rent a house right next door to where we were building our house. Almost every day the workers would start early in the morning and continue thru the day.
And as for the results, they say one picture is worth a thousand words, just check out the Zanardi gallery under "custom homes".
If anyone is thinking about building a new house, call Heidi or Dave.
They were there for us every step of the way, and I know they will be there for you.
Thank you,
Beth & Walter Zanardi
"To The Tundra Homes Family,
I would like to express our delight with the Tundra Home we purchased. As I see it, the construction and service we have received have been exemplary.
We have had some additional work done that required electrical wiring and the installation of a 5.1 stereo system and both contractors stated how well the house was constructed, which gave me piece of mind knowing we had made the correct choice when we purchased this property.
One thing I would like to bring up is the service and concern we received; I was away on business when my house was burglarized, not being form the area I told my wife to contact Tundra Homes to see if they could help with recommendations to secure the home. They were at the house the same day and had the house secure before dark. They took care of the repairs that needed to be done that same week, (very impressive).
We love or Tundra Home and would highly recommend them to anyone who asks.
Thanks again for the beautiful home."
Best Regards,
Robert and Claudia Gomez
"I have known Dave Gydosh for over 30 years. The one thing that has always impressed me was how meticulous he is with his work.
One example that stands out to me was when he was building my first home at 1206 SW 1st Street. He used to stop in daily to make sure everything was going well. One day I was there cleaning up a mess left from the sub-contractors and Dave was inspecting the place. Being unfamiliar with most things related with construction, I thought everything looked good, and it did. I saw Dave working with his tape measure going over everything. After I was finished I went to talk to him as he was in the 2nd bathroom. As I walked in, I saw him measuring the bathtub with a frown on his face. I said, "All looks good, doesn't it?" He looked at me and said, "No, this bathtub is a 1/2 inch off." I replied, "No one will notice something as small as that." Dave replied, "But, I would." The plumbers were back and reset the bathtub. That is the type of quality work you get with Tundra Homes.
I had Dave build my 2nd home which was very complex. He performed the same meticulous checking as he did on my first home. I couldn't be happier with the results.
Thank you Dave."

"A very professional builder who goes the extra mile to please the customer. Listens well to customers' wishes and needs and readily incorporates changes as desired. This "no surprises" builder lends personal attention to detail and quality. Good after-the-sale assistance in matters relating to home's construction as well as helpful community information to the Lee County newcomer."

"Tundra Homes,
We are glad we had the opportunity to work with your company and would recommend you without hesitation."
Wayne & Cathy Hofer
"As a newly married couple, having our first home built was a very exciting and momentous time. Initially, we looked at other local builders, but Tundra Homes was our top choice. We loved the Cove's architectural layout and open design. We felt very comfortable with the experienced staff at Tundra Homes. Dave and Heidi worked closely with us to satisfy our needs and preferences. Incidentally, we had a neighbor tell us that while the crews were working on our home, he took a walkthrough and said, "your builder is good, they don't cut corners." We were confident about the quality construction, but we actually learned this first hand when our home, nearing its completion, withstood Hurricane Charlie, a Category 4 Hurricane, in 2004. The walls and the roof were fully intact! Four years later and we still love our home. The price was right and the quality is exceptional. We fully recommend Tundra Homes to anyone that is looking for an honest builder that prides themselves on quality construction, and friendly service."

"To David, Heidi, and Everyone at Tundra Homes,
It started off as a concept my Dad and I had over dinner one night. After six months of planning and construction - It became a reality. At that dinner conversation it was agreed, that in order to expand our business we needed to build a Showroom for our Custom Electronic Company. Without compromise we both thought of our friends at Tundra Homes.
Working with you in the past as one of your Sub-Contractors, we realized that the Tundra Homes staff was capable of completing this project in the time-frame, with the craftsmanship, and professionalism we required. Being a family-owned business like you, I appreciate the ethics and sincerity you have encouraged in your employees.
Thank you, and keep up the good work!"
Sincerely,
Kahlil J. Ali

"Dear Dave and Heidi,
We're writing in response to your request as to how we feel about our home after having lived in it for five years. We are just as happy now if not more so than when we moved in. Almost everyone is excited to move into their new house but often that excitement wanes if problems arise or you wish you had constructed something a little differently. We didn't experience either of those things. Any problems we had were minor and were quickly resolved by your company. We love all the features of our house from the floor plan, to the electrical and lighting design, to the attractive exterior elevation.
As your painting subcontractor I see first hand the high quality of construction and materials that you use. I appreciate too the accuracy of your construction schedule and that things are ready for us to paint when you say that they are. Not all builders are so well organized. I often deal with homeowners in the final stages of construction when I go to do the final paint touch up. I see first hand which builders give the best customer satisfaction. Overwhelmingly, Tundra Homes ranks among the highest in customer satisfaction.
As homeowners, both Donna and I appreciate how well organized Tundra Homes is, how quickly concerns are addressed, and the genuine interest showed to us to make sure that we got what we wanted. Should we ever build again Tundra Homes would be our contractor. Thanks so much for the great job you did on our house!"
Sincerely,
Donna and Gary Gafford
"When we decided to build a new home it was one of our luckiest days when we got the recommendation of the Tundra Homes.
The building grew astonishing quickly and Dave and Heidi did a great job from the first day to the very end. They are very nice people, whom we trusted in every way and every time.
Whenever we wanted to change something, it was no problem. Dave managed it immediately and Heidi reliably updated our records. Heidi always found special stores that pleased our wishes. And last but not least, We think we paid a fair price for our wonderful home.
Whenever we would build another home – we would do it with the very honest people Dave and Heidi."

“Thank you all so much for helping this house become all we wanted. Our new outdoor living room is amazing and our family never wants to go inside. Your attention and time spent with us made this project so easy and much more enjoyable than we thought it could be. Everything about your company is first class!”

"If we were to build again, we would not even talk with another g.c. because of our excellent service from Tundra".
Harold, Pine Island
"I chose you because I thought that I could trust you and I was
not disappointed. The house turned out better than I thought it would, and
I had high expectations. Dave, your attention to detail, knowledge of the
construction process and ideas about trim work impressed me greatly. Heidi,
you took care of every question and concern effectively and efficiently.
Additionally you and Bonnie helped us out greatly with advice on colors,
design, etc. Your staff, from Dan, to Horace and Joel and on down (not
forgetting Raquel), did a really great job. They took great pride in their
work. Your subcontractors all did a fine job. Thank you, it has been a
pleasure getting to know you and everyone at Tundra homes and working with
you on our beautiful new home. You can use me as a reference any time."
Bill Cronin, Cape Coral
"Dear Heidi and Dave,
Just a note to let you know how much we enjoyed working with you. We especially appreciate the matter in which you kept on top of everything going on from day to day. We knew that when you said something was going to be done on any given day, it was. The quality of your workmanship was all that we had hoped for.
We also want to thank you for all the emails giving us the chance to visit the different suppliers in order to make the best choices. All these things plus your professional and friendly attitude, made our building experience a great one.
We are finally getting settled and realy enjoy our new home. Thanks again."

"We live in France and thanks to Tundra Homes, we managed to have a brand new home completed in 4 months. As we didn't have time to come to Florida before and during construction, we did everything on the internet. This was a challenge and we very much appreciated the patience, efficient work, and kindness of Heidi and her father. Our emails were answered in less than one day and we did send hundreds of them! Each week we could monitor the progress of the construction thanks to the pictures sent by Tundra Homes. The home was delivered on time and in perfect condition. Tundra Homes is probably the most reliable builder for people like us who have to do everything on the internet because they are too busy or too far away from Florida."
Mr. & Mrs. Bouin in France
"I have built two commercial buildings and three homes in the past and experienced many problems. This was not the case with Tundra Homes. Every aspect of the construction process was better than expected. The house was completed in under 4 and 1/2 months and within budget. Being out of state, I especially enjoyed the constant communication and getting emailed daily photos of the construction progress. I would not hesitate to work with Tundra Homes again!"
Mr. Cummings
"We would gladly recommend Tundra Homes to anyone. If we ever decided to build
another house, there would be absolutely no question that we would come to
you.
We did our homework when choosing a builder and did A LOT of comparing.
Cost was of course the biggest factor, but equally important was reputation
and a solid financial background of the builder. Tundra passed with flying
colors.
Since we lived in Wisconsin and built in Florida, we had concerns about
details slipping through the cracks, not being kept up to date and making
long distance choices. Not with Tundra! I sensed that Heidi was very
organized and detail oriented (it was part of our reason for deciding to
build with Tundra) and she was - in spades! It made us very comfortable
with the entire process.
They built us a home that exceeded our expectations of quality and beauty.
We made the right choice when it came to the builder.
The "after care" we received was incredible. The very few things that were
not exactly to our liking, or something didn't fit - they were out and/or
sub-contracted out remedying it immediately. This was very important. They
really stand behind their work.
Check out Tundra, it is well worth it!"

"Dave & Heidi,
The closet looks great! Chris did excellent work, and the closet folks did a great job. It blends in nicely with the home. It's every woman's dream closet!"
Steve & Debbie Domby
Closet Addition
"David is a man of integrity, a rare quality in SW Florida among contractors.
When the tile installation began going wrong (an inch off the substrate in
some places, with tile shims being shoved in underneath) Chris called Dave,
not more than 5 minutes on the job, (and no real complaint on my part) Dave
said they will do it over! Whether it would cost him money & delay the
project did not cause him to compromise the quality of work & thus his good
name.
I'm impressed with the whole team, Raquel is a sweet heart & courteous,
Heidi continues to amaze me with her knowledge of the building trade and
efficiency in dealing with the authorities. Chris really know his stuff and
monitors everything that's going on."
Bob Cyr
"Tundra Homes completed my project in a timely fashion. With very good communication throughout, all employees were very friendly. Good quality workmanship. I would recommend Tundra to anyone."
