A 2025 customer building a home for the first time said Rusty came out during their due diligence period on a plot of land to advise on potential build locations and coordinate perc testing. That 2025 customer said they broke ground and moved into the new home about 7 months later, that Rusty was responsive to small fixes after the move, and that he worked around "our young daughters nap schedule." RF Downing Homes says it has been in business for 26 years, and the Better Business Bureau gives it an A+ grade and lists it as accredited. Its BBB listing names new residential and commercial construction, remodeling, renovations and lead abatement. A recent Google customer recommends Rusty to anyone building a new home, renovating or repairing one, and says he stands behind his work. A 2025 customer said it was the third home they had built and that Rusty returned a call or text almost immediately. A 2025 reviewer wrote that their neighbors kept telling them how nice the house looked. A 2022 Google reviewer gave one star and called it a "Horrible company!"
Rusty and RF Downing Homes went above and beyond throughout the entire process. It would be hard to find someone who cares as much as Rusty does. He's not satisfied unless you're completely happy with the final result. His quality, craftsmanship, and expertise are exactly why you want him building your home. Rusty doesn't cut corners. He takes pride in doing things the right way and delivering a home that's built to last. I would recommend Rusty to anyone building a new home, renovating, or repairing their home. You can count on him to do the job right and stand behind his work. Thanks, Rusty, for your hard work, dedication, and commitment to quality. We truly appreciate everything you did and couldn’t be happier with the result!
First time building a home? I highly recommend Rusty. I worked with Rusty for about a year and half. I bought a plot of land and Rusty came out during my due diligence period to advise on potential build locations and coordinate perc testing. This was crucial in giving me peace of mind that I was buying a plot that was actually feasible for a new build. We then discussed plans and he was receptive to any request for changes I had. We broke ground and about 7 months later we moved into our new home. Throughout the entire process Rusty was professional and responsive. This was my first time building and he was very patient in explaining all my possible options and the pros/cons of each. I really got the impression he was looking out for our best interests and not trying to maximize profits. Once we moved in he was immediately responsive any small fixes that popped up. He was very patient and respectful to coordinate working around our young daughters nap schedule. Overall 5/5 stars. If you are building for the first time, Rusty is your guy.
We can't say enough about Rusty and his team. From the very start Rusty made us very comfortable with our decision to build with him. This is our third home we've built and by far this was the best experience we ever had. Our home came out absolutely beautiful and we couldn't be happier. All of the craftsmen who worked on our property were talented professionals who take pride in their work. Rusty is just a great guy, very honest and decent. If he says he'll be there, he's there. He returns your call or text almost immediately. Extremely reliable crew. We would do it all again with this team.
Reliable, Honest & Professional. Rusty and team were absolutely top notch from start to finish. Our neighbors keep telling us how nice the house looks, and we agree.
