Troy and his entire Team have been a Privilege and Joy to work with Professionally for more than 10 years now! The entire process from Design, to Build through Completion is ran seamlessly, while protecting the jobsite during the building process as if it was his own personal home. I appreciate his loyalty and honesty to use the BEST products to showcase his Custom Homes, like San Marcos Iron Doors. I would highly recommend them for any of your Custom Home building needs. I can not say enough Great things about this builder and his staff!

A couple years ago we bought some land in The Canyons at Scenic Loop in San Antonio. We interviewed 4 or 5 builders and listened to all of the features and building process. Its a little overwhelming at times when you are choosing a builder. We decided to go with TA French and couldnt be happier. Shay, the sales lead, helped us through the process and really did a great job helping us understand the steps involved and easy to follow. During the build process, we had a very good Construction Foreman who worked with the sub-contractors and ensured the quality that TA French and we were looking for. After almost a year in our house, we love it and continue to recommend TA French to other potential homebuyers. They do a quality job and have great customer service.

We chose T.A French Custom Builder because of the straight forward information that we received about building our home. We also liked the fact that we were given a price for the build and that is the price we paid. We had a great team that made our home what we envisioned. At first we didnt think we needed a design team but soon found out that it was nice to have Amy as our contact person. She was helpful in making our home design happen. Our build manager, James, was a wonderful source of ideas and suggestions. A few glitches came along during the build but T.A. French was quick to tell us about them and implement solutions. We would definitely use them again and would refer them to other persons wanting a quality builder. As an example of the quality of home, we sustained temperatures of 8* during the 2021 Spring and our home survived beautifully with no damage.

TA French Custom Builders built us a beautiful custom home that we love. Troy Frenchs staff were all very knowledgeable, responsive to all questions and concerns, and just an overall joy to work with throughout every step of the home-building process. Their professionalism was always A++, and their end goal was making sure that we loved everything about our new custom home, and we definitely do!

We are Vintage Oaks residents (or will be soon I should say). Had a truly awful experience with another builder that ended with a partially build problem structure. We knew of Troy French’s reputation and asked if they would consider taking over our problem build. We are so pleased to say that we signed a contract with TF today. They have been nothing short of incredible to work with. Shay Cosgrove has walked us through the process with such professionalism and has been very responsive to calls and texts. Malinda Lanford was amazing to work with on design. We know we are in the right hands with Troy French. This company deserves far more than 5 stars!

After purchasing our lot in Vintage Oaks TA French was one of the recommendations we received to build our dream home. After meeting Troy and hearing his touching story of becoming a custom home builder with the goal of providing excellent quality workmanship my husband and I decided to sign with him. We were connected with a dream team starting with Jennifer who made the entire process a pleasure through her expertise and availability. Jennifer was there for us throughout the process with compassion and a smile! When it came time to start the build our foreman James was on spot to oversee every last detail and go above and beyond in giving us attention always with sincerity and professionalism. We love our new home and the awesome TA French team!!!

After interviewing several builders (and going to their job sites), we were fortunate to find TA French. Our build was complicated by the fact that the vast majority of the planning and construction occurred in our absence, but we never felt left out of the loop. Our focus throughout the process was to ensure that our home had good bones, as one can always repaint and replace lighting and flooring, as well as making sure that the home was accessibility and low maintenance - the result exceeded our expectations. The crews were uniformly polite, hardworking and professional - Jose, our building supervisor, uniformly went above and beyond, sending us videos, pictures and never failing to answer our questions. TA French is worthy of accolades and our highest recommendation!

TA French builds a quality home. Troy is very personable and makes himself available if there any issues that need to be addressed. His team, including our project directors Shay and Jose, were always available and attentive to our needs and any concerns we had. You may pay a little more for TA French compared to other builders, but you get what you pay for: quality workmanship, a project completed on time, and expert advice along the way.

This was our first time building a custom home and we had heard stories about what a nightmare the process can be yet our experience with TA French & his team was just fantastic! They walked us through the process step by step and his architect nailed our floor plan concept on the first try. The build came in on budget, was completed on time and his team made our first custom build a great experience. Highly recommend!!

After visiting with a few builders we settled on T.A French to build a home on our lot in Vintage Oaks. We felt really good about it because they had built our friend’s home and we saw the quality. You will get very high quality materials and craftsmen if you go with T.A. French. It makes a difference!Our Architect was amazing to work with and even took some of my hand sketches and brought them to life! We wanted a smaller home (2,500 sq. Feet), that was designed around the way we live. We could not be happier with our floor plan and how it matches and optimizes our daily routines. It looks like a much bigger house than it is!Our decorator was able to quickly figure out what we love in materials and colors and guided us to a beautiful final product. I would periodically get nervous about my choices but she felt confident in what we had chosen, and it came together beautifully.Our stone masons did a beautiful job, both inside and out. I look at other homes when I am walking and I see the difference. Our cabinetry is beautiful. One of things I have most amazed by are the trim carpenters they used. They build and install the window casings, crown moulding, baseboards, closet organization, etc. We absolutely love their work! Our cased windows and doors are beautiful. I also love our tile flooring and the company they use gave me beautiful selections at a good price. I didn’t think we could afford to tile the entire house but they made it happen and it is gorgeous. The tile showers and tile backsplash in the kitchen are lovely as well. I know there is so much more that was done, but those things popped into my head. You will not be disappointed if you go with T.A. French! ❤️❤️

After interviewing a number of builders, we decided to select TA French. I can honestly say it was a great choice. From the initial design process where we talked through our desires with the architect (who came up with an awesome plan) to the finished house, Shay Cosgrove (our sales person from TA French) listened to us and implemented everything we wanted. We gave Shay a budget to work with and wanted a turn key house that included an in-ground pool and landscaping – and our house stayed on budget even with the pool and landscaping included. We were able to make all of the selections for the entire house in three days – a great practice on TA French’s part as everything was tied together, I didn’t have to worry about remembering what selections I made for plumbing or floors because everything was done at the same time. I also feel that doing the selections at the same time reduced changes – helping to stay on budget. Since we were unable to be in Texas for the build process, we relied on Shay to take pictures and keep us updated on the building of our home. We made a total of three trips during the entire process. When we did the final walk through, we had an amazing house with everything we wanted. On another important note, if you have any warranty issues, I have found that TA French does an excellent job with follow up and they stand by their warranty and their product. If you are considering building and have the option of using TA French, I would highly recommend them.

Highly recommend TA French. There are so many aspects to building a house. Troy’s team of experts listened to our needs and wants, then designed and built our dream home. Deciding on plans and pricing while still living overseas was not an issue because we had video conferencing at our convenience. We are happy that we relied on the suggestions and expertise in the design and any needed modifications. We couldn’t be more satisfied with the outcome. We even stayed within budget and there were no surprises. Communication throughout the various building phases made our experience extremely positive.

We built our home shortly after COVID and the subsequent upheaval of the country.Labor shortages, manufacturing issues and material shortages were all a challenge. Despite all of these challenges, TA French built and delivered an ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL RETIREMENT DREAM HOME for us.Our sales lead, Amy, was patient, responsive and very knowledgeable.Our decorator, Michelle, was creative, candid and was a great listener.Our project manager, David, had vast experience, was detail oriented and was determined to deliver the home WE wanted.The VP of Operations, Amber, was open, honest, transparent and our champion when dealing with subcontractors.Owner, Troy French, was available, insightful and committed to delivering the product WE imagined.Throughout the process the team asked many questions to understand OUR concepts and ideas, they listened to meet our needs, they were very open to addressing concerns along the way, they mentored and guided us to avoid pitfalls and to find potential work arounds.Building a custom home is a labor of love. At times, more labor than love, yet, if you stay focused on the end result and not the challenges of the process, a beautiful custom home is waiting for you and that is what TA French delivered to us, a beautiful custom home at the right price.We have now been in our home 18 maths and TA French is STILL very responsive when we call them. Actions speak louder than words and their attention to customer service is demonstrated at all levels. At TAF, customer service it is not just a motto in a brochure or hanging on a wall.TA French are GREAT people, a GREAT TEAM and they build a GREAT home.Mary and I HIGHLY recommend them. If you want to come see our home or want more information, have TA French reach out to us and we will be happy to share our experiences with you.Paul Borchardt

We had a great experience with Troy and his staff. Everyone was so helpful, honest and hard working. This was our second time to build a custom home and we couldnt have been more pleased. We love our home and would use TA French again!

Review 23 (2019-04-15 - Rating: 5)
Over the years we have had many homes built, but none compared to the quality workmanship that Troy French and his team delivered and completed in the time frame promised.During the construction period we dealt with line people and back office employees. Jennifer, who guides you through all the upfront work of plans, deco, and other related items was very knowledgeable and a joy with whom to work. All the outside vendors that she brought in were top notch. Sarah and Amber administratively were always there when you needed a question answered.Troy French with his wealth of construction knowledge and hands on experience for detail which could be seen in every aspect of our home which produced an aesthetically beautiful and a functionally rock solid home. His team’s follow thru on corrective action has been above and beyond.If we have another home built, Troy French would be our builder and we heartily recommend Troy and his team.Michael and Janet Sheffey

Having T.A.French build our new custom home was a great decision and we highly recommend them to anyone who asks us about building a custom home in the New Braunfels area. We did our homework on builders in the area, listened to other homeowners building experiences, and paid close attention to what realtors (while looking for a lot) and financial experts had to say before selecting T.A.French as our builder. Troy and his team were great to work with and made the process of building a new custom home a positive experience. Communication and follow through were excellent. There were no surprises along the way, and our home is not only well constructed but looks exactly as we dreamed it would. T.A. French utilizes a process that has been perfected over time and was developed from Troys experience as a builder. The process works! Jenifer Ellis, our new home specialist, and David Smith, our supervisor, went above and beyond to make sure we were informed and part of the process for every step of the journey. We could not have asked for a better team to work with on our build. Any issues that arose were dealt with promptly and efficiently, including warranty work. After listening to our neighbors, who used other builders, complain about the building process and warranty issues, we realize how much our homework paid off in selecting the right builder. From the initial meeting with Troy and Jennifer, working first hand with David, to closing and move in, T.A. French did a great job and we could not be happier with our new home.

T.A. French was the builder of our home in New Braunfels, Texas, and every day we thank our lucky stars! Troy and his team are TERRIFIC to work with, from the initial meet and greet you have with a building liaison, through the design process and the construction with your assigned foreman. Reputation and customer service are huge factors in selecting a builder - you better feel comfortable in the preliminary meeting! We built while living in another state so trust was enormous for us since we wouldnt observe the construction process.We worked with Shay Cosgrove as our building liaison, and she was awesome. Friendly and professional, she was prompt at getting us answers to questions, and just made us feel comfortable during the entire process.James Welborn was our construction foreman, and he was excellent to work with as well. He was great at sending pics and shooting some video to help us see what was going on. He was great on the fly and in making adjustments, and no question was too dumb for him to answer patiently.The house turned out beautiful! Its tight and well made. I walked through during some of the construction phases and brought knowledge buddies with me, and they were impressed with what they saw.But here is the deal sealer - what is the builder like after you move in and have issues? I have heard numerous horror stories from neighbors who went with other builders about their attempts to get problems addressed or punch out lists completed. We moved in with a few punch list items left and James got those items completed to our satisfaction. Any small issues we found we just called the office and they got the appropriate person out to handle it in a timely manner.I have had numerous conversations with neighbors in our development who have said: if I could do it all again, I would go with TA French.

We wanted a true custom home that included all the good things from previous houses I have owned. What we did NOT want was another cookie cutter customizable home offered by virtually all the other builders besides Troy French. With Troy, we got a true custom home built of the best materials, and solid as can be.I think our neighbors are sorry they did not go with Troy everytime they see our absolutely gorgeous custom cabinets made of solid hickory. Most of the neighbors have ugly dark wood ones that appear to have been bought off the rack from some supply house.I would recommend Troy any day of the week. I dont think you can find a better builder.
