Grand Island, NE 68803

Dear Danny and Dave,

                Now that we have moved into our new home, we want to thank you and the people from Star Homes for the excellent job that was done in building our new home.  As we were under construction of our new home several people asked us if we were going foreword with the project since they had not heard me complaining about the process.  I told them that this was the easiest process I had been through and that Star homes lived up to there promise.  I checked with Danny all the time and he always gave me an accurate time line and would complete things on time or early. 

                The construction was done carefully and with great attention to details.  The various contractors you employ did in excellent job in all aspects of the home.  Each one was friendly and made sure our new home would be perfect for my family. 

                We were also pleased that we could make some many modifications off your basic design in order to fill the needs of me and my family.  We also liked the way that we reviewed all the costs along the way so there were no surprises at the end.

                Finally I would like to thank you and your  team on how you have stood behind your work and when needed you have been to our house within 24 hours to fix the any problems.  Customer service and honesty is what will continue to keep Star Homes at the pinnacle of home construction.

Thanks again,

Ben Williams

"Our house in Grand Island was the fourth new home we had built in our career travels around the upper Midwest. We were pleased with the quality of workmanship and the materials. Star homes insulated and finished the garage, which wasn't specifically required in the plans, but they did it without being asked. When issues come up during construction, they were always resolved in a friendly, businesslike fashion. We were pleased with the outcome and would recommend Star Homes to anyone interested in a new home."

"The Aurora Housing Development Corporation formed a relationship with Star Homes approximately two years ago. Since that time, they have built twelve spec houses for us, ranging in size from 884 squre feet to approximately 1300 square feet. Of these homes, all have sold shortly after completion and the ones built for rent were occupied immediately also. The homeowners have been very pleased with their new homes. The quality of homes has met our expectations, and the price has always come in as budgeted. Star Homes stands behind their product also. It has been a good working relationship on both our part and that of Star Homes."

"Starostka Group served as the general contractor for our Meadows Townhome project located in Hastings, Nebraska. The project incurred difficulties with other general contractors and the Starostka Group stepped in and completed the project in a timely workmanlike way. Their performance was outstanding. We have consistently found Starostka Group to be professional, thorough, efficient, timely, innovative, and most important of all, of the highest integrity."

"Two years ago we contacted Star Homes about building an addition to our home. We had a plan and they took it, refined it, giving us much more than we dreamed possible. This spring we contacted them again concerning a screened-in area on our deck. We couldn't be happier as they, again, took our idea and refined it to the point that our summer screen room has become a three-season room with removable plexiglass windows. Dave and Danny know their business, which is to build the BEST, and their workers and workmanship are superb. We highly recommend Star Homes for building a home and for remodeling."

"The Starostka Group has been a very knowledgeable and dependable contractor, showing skills in developing, scheduling, and managing their scope of work. They interface excellently with not only the work force of Innovation Systems and the Medical Center staff, but also the work force of all the other subcontractors. They show great concern for the owner's interest and other crafswork as we progress through this project."

"Starostka Group, Co. has worked under contract to H.B.E for all building concrete, concrete paving, curbs, gutters, and sidewalls. Performing as a concrete subcontractor, Starostka Group is conscientious of their work while conforming to the plans and specifications. Their performance, proficiency, and workmanship are superior to any of the subcontractors working for H.B.E on the York General Hospital project. They have never hesitated to work extra hours if needed to complete activities to uphold the construction schedule. Starostka Group's management, from their office personnel to the field foremen, display construction knowledge and capabilities far beyond the scope of work they have performed for H.B.E on this project."

- Bryon Casper, Project Superintendent, Hospital Building & Equipment Corporation

"We have a long and successful relationship with the Starostka Group. They have subcontracted many types of projects for us, including concrete, renovation, finish carpentry, demolition, and steel erection. We have found their crews to be knowledgeable, hard working, and safety minded. The Starostka Group's work for us has been timely, well crafted, and within budged. I personally have found their employees and management team a pleasure to work with."
