Smoothest renovation we have ever experienced

Hask Custom Homes and Al Kelekci (owner) did an exceptional job in building us a custom home in the Chastain Park/Buckhead area of Atlanta (completed in Jan '14). Al met with us several years prior to commencing our construction, always provided constructive thoughts/ideas and was attentive to budget considerations as though our funds were his own. ‍Al and Hask Construction provided a full service, ranging from support in finding the architect (who worked well both with us as owners and with Hask), meticulously attending to site planning, completing all plans, submitting for all permitting with the City of Atlanta, and completing a full custom construction program on schedule and within agreed budget parameters. Very slight budget variances were attributed to resumption of Atlanta's home building economy and some supply cost escalations, but these were managed professionally and with full transparency. ‍Al's subtrades work well with and for him; they also respect him .. a sign of a real professional. Al's engagement with us as owners always was timely and responsive, always helpful, and always kind. He embodies the belief that '... if the work is worth doing, it is worth doing well'. He has become a friend; his work deserves such friendship, nothing less. ‍Our Hask-built home is the 3rd new home we have built in Georgia. Al is the builder we would recommend or choose were we to build another home, and we would do so with full confidence that the work would be professionally and properly completed. He is entirely trustworthy, and remained actively engaged throughout; likewise, his project manager was actively involved. Record keeping was timely, accurate, and complete. ‍Al and Hask provide great value; we recommend them enthusiastically and without reservation. ‍We appreciate the privilege to comment on Al Kelekci and Hask Construction.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our new home by HASK Custom Homes. The combination of construction quality, craftsmanship, and attention to detail make ours a truly beautiful home. On one of our first visits, the builder took the time to walk us through the house and explain all the wonderful extras included in the home. Since then, the builder has been very responsive to our questions and the few issues that have come up. He gladly continued working with us to resolve a problem even after the 1- year warranty period was over. We have received numerous compliments on the beauty of our home and can't thank HASK enough for their excellent work!

We really, really love this house and wish we could pick it up and move it to Chicago. We have been looking at homes in Chicago and we have yet to find a home that was built with the quality and attention to detail that was put into our house.

Hask Custom Homes is a reliable, innovative, high-quality residential builder. I would recommend them for any new construction or remodel job of whatever size. They are professional, knowledgeable, dependable, and get work done on budget and on time. The owner, Al Kelekci, is personally involved in his jobs, communicates effectively, and will make sure things are done right and that customers are fully satisfied. I'm a fan.

As a Realtor, we see all kinds of things in the Atlanta market. We sold a home by Hask Custom Homes a few years back and our buyer is still thrilled. The home inspector said it was one of the best built homes he had ever inspected and the builder went out of his way to show us how well work was done even in areas of the attic a buyer wouldn't typically look. ‍Al Kelekci, is a great builder and good guy. We were so impressed with him that we have frequently recommended him as well as bid on other homes he has built. He builds a fabulous product and stands behind the product he builds! When I get to build a home, he is the builder I will use.

We had a great experience with Hask Homes. One of the best things was that they worked quickly and were mindful of deadlines and proactive about lining up workers swiftly for different parts of the project. They also got things to a certain point and then vacated for Thanksgiving/Christmas. They helped us work through different construction and design issues and provided pictures of what the different options would look like, which really helped us to decide. They were responsive to texts, emails and calls. They kept us informed who would be in the house that day, and supervised workers onsite. They went the second mile to find hardware, and very kindly helped us to resolve a day-before-Thanksgiving plumbing disaster which was not even in the area of the house they were working on, just out of kindness! The foreman was very nice to have around and answered questions thoughtfully. They were able to point us to different area businesses to help us make decisions about countertops, etc. In areas where new construction ran into old, they did a great job making the new part fit in with the old. We love what they did for us, and we would do it all over again!

Al Kelekci has an incredible connection to his client's vision of their new home. It is this vision that he delivers with expertise, quality, within expected costs and expected deadline. He stays very involved throughout the project and a true delight to work with. At every chance, I recommend Al to clients and friends.

Hask Custom Homes was our first choice to build our home, but we interviewed several other builders who were recommended by friends and neighbors. Al (the owner of Hask) stood out from the pack immediately, and I'm so glad we hired him. We bought a Buckhead ranch off West Paces Ferry, gutted it and expanded the footprint a little. Start to finish: 5-1/2 months! Al is a gem. He has great skills in organization, budgeting, project management, and sub-contractor management. His communication is excellent. He contributes good ideas. His integrity is beyond reproach. We ended up with a cost-plus contract since we hadn't finalized the building plans/specs when we hired Hask. With the wrong builder, this could be disastrous, but Al treated our money as if it was his own (prudently!). We've now been in our home for over a year, and occasionally call Al if we have questions. He is always quick to respond. We can't recommend Al Kelekci and HASK Custom Homes highly enough, and would be more than happy to discuss our experiences with anyone considering hiring him.
