Bought a GRIT construction home in 2020 and have been very happy with the product! High end design and finishes. Any time I have had any issue (even well after home warranty expired) GRIT has stood by their project and kindly offered me prompt service, advice and referrals. Would 100% buy a GRIT home again -

Working with Blake from Grit Construction was a fantastic experience. He was incredibly professional throughout our project, ensuring everything ran smoothly from start to finish. I highly recommend Grit Construction for anyone looking for reliable and skilled general contractor. -

I bought a house built by GRIT Construction in 2018 and it has been a wonderful home for my family. We did have a few issues with water intrusion and even though the builder warranty expired for several years, GRIT and especially their star employee Blake, showed that they stand behind their construction and their homes. Blake did a thorough inspection of the situation, provided a hands on solution and even recommended and set up additional work for future preventative measures to ensure our home was protected. I have had past homes where I had water intrusion and a contractor “fixed it” but no one had this level of determination as Blake; he even texted during subsequent heavy rain storms to see how it was going and if it was holding up. It is evident that he and GRIT care about their output with that added white glove service during a time when he should be with his family at night. GRIT absolutely stands by their product and a huge thank you to Blake for his professionalism! Would definitely recommend GRIT and their customer service and care. -

GRIT constructed my home in 2022 and I have been extremely happy with the quality. Even more impressive is Blake. He was in-charge of all the warranty work at our property. He is professional and incredibly easy to reach and deal with. Whenever I have an issue he would come remedy it immediately. Even after the 1 year warranty, he would help answer any questions and even come out to help with a few issues! Bottom line, Blake and GRIT have been amazing and I would recommend them to everyone. -

We bought a new construction house in Fitler Square from a developer (before it was even framed so we ended up very involved in the design/build process) who had hired Grit to build our home. Grits entire team was phenomenal throughout the entire process, and most importantly built us a high quality home (which isnt always the case with other builders in Philly) that we have been enjoying for the past 14 months. Damian and Matt were so responsive during and even after the build, went above and beyond to help us even with things that werent even Grits responsibility. We had a few minor things come up over the past year that Blake and Grit have been super responsive to fixing (getting in touch with us within hours and being here the next day with the solution), and they honored so many extras that werent technically in the warranty. Wouldnt hesitate to recommend Grit to anyone looking for a high quality builder who stands by their product in the Philadelphia area! -

I worked with grit construction to develop a 6 unit building in the Fishtown section of Philadelphia and I am extremely pleased with the workmanship and attention to detail. The team at GRIT was easy to work with and communicated with me every step of the way. Their systems allowed me to see what was happening at the job site daily, and for a first time developer this was very important in helping me understand the process. Blake and Tim managed the project closely and pushed for quality at every stage of the construction. The professionalism of this company is outstanding and I can’t thank them enough for delivering such a high quality building early and under budget. I will be building with them in the future and I can’t recommend them enough. -

We hired GRIT to build us a single family home at the very strong recommendation of our architect (Gnome Architects, who does awesome work). We worked very closely with the GRIT team over the course of 8 months while they built our dream house. We couldnt be more pleased with how it turned out. We wanted to give it some time before reviewing to make sure we didnt run into any issues. Almost a year and a half after moving in, I can safely say the quality of the build has held up great and the few warranty issues we ran into were quickly and adequately addressed. If we were doing it all again tomorrow, GRIT is the choice we would make. Thanks to the team for a wonderful experience and for being a great group to work with. Sean, Jack, Chirssy, Andrew, Nikki and Blake, thank you for your hard work and dedication! -

We recently purchased a new construction home built by Grit, and my family and I couldnt be happier. The attention to detail is precise, and staff have been accessible, responsive, and genuinely concerned with making sure that the people that buy their homes are more than satisfied with the product. I would highly recommend Grit for anyone that wants to ensure that the quality of their residence is tip-top. -

I have had a wonderful experience working with GRIT over the years. My house was built by GRIT over 6 years ago and I recently had an issue with my dryer that could not be fixed by the dozens of other professionals that came to look at it. I called Sean, from GRIT Construction as I was hoping he could get to the bottom of the issue. Without any hesitation, he jumped in to help out by sending someone out immediately to diagnose the issue. Blake figured out the problem right away and sent out a team to get it fixed in such a timely manner. Considering I purchased the home over 6 years ago, They clearly stand by their work and go above and beyond for their customers. Both Sean and Blake were responsive and easy to work with. I highly recommend GRIT construction because of their commitment and the quality of their work. -

The Grit team have outdone themselves by creating a house that is a thing of great beauty and a true work of art.Grit delivered a one-of-a-kind house that is a celebration of incredibly thoughtful architecture and careful selection of materials both new and reclaimed.The execution was near flawless and immediate attention was given to the very few loose threads that requiring trimming.The folks at Grit often looped me into text chains with subcontractors in order to streamline communications and enhance transparency, resulting in quick, quality results.The Grit team was also generous with documentation and opportunities to be trained on built-in technical systems, both of which were important value-adds.So congratulations again to the Grit team for a challenging job exceptionally well done! -

Recently bought a new construction from GRIT. Had an issue with a leaking shower drain. I sent an email to their service division and got a call back within minutes. Blake and his team were on site the next day to evaluate and coordinated tiling/plumbing/fiberglass teams to repair the issue within a matter of days. They were polite, responsive and clean. Great experience. -

Grit construction is incredible. I bought new construction in Philadelphia from Grit one year ago, and could not be more pleased with the quality of our home, and Grits attentiveness. They continue to be invested in making sure we are satisfied with the property, going above and beyond answering questions and making minor repairs (truly no significant issues) almost instantaneously. They more than uphold our builders warranty. Their craftsmanship is incredible, as is their integrity and customer service- truly superb, unique service and quality on all fronts. This company is a true gem- we are so lucky to have found this home. -

Buy homes built with GRIT. Seriously. After researching other builders, I was glad I chose a house built by GRIT. They made sure the house was in tip-top shape and fixed anything that wasnt - to a superb quality, by the way. Blake was super-responsive and pro-active about making sure that everything in the house was top-notch quality.Im nothing short of impressed with this company. -

GRIT Construction built the development in Norris Square where I bought a home. They did an amazing job on the house and they have been a pleasure to work with. They were extremely responsive in answering questions and have a very talented team - Blake especially was awesome he worked closely with me and fixed whatever minor issues he saw on the spot so the house was perfect for move in. -

Grit had built a triplex for us in West Philadelphia. They did an incredible job from start to finish and even after honoring their builder warranty. It’s hard to recommend contractors but I can and have continued to recommend Grit. Will 100% be using again on next project. -

I experienced a leakage into my home from the roof deck, an issue that began in Q3 2023 and persisted for over a year. Although the one-year warranty had expired in Q3 2022, Blake Ammons, the Field Operations Manager, and Bryant Sandoval, the Construction Manager from Grit Construction, took proactive measures to identify and resolve the problem. Blake was very communicative throughout the process, visiting multiple times to investigate and coordinate the necessary repairs. He brought in siding specialists and fiberglass experts to assess the situation and ultimately sent out Bryant once initial remediations didn’t resolve the leak.Bryant and his team were incredibly detail-oriented, ensuring the work was done thoroughly and correctly. They replaced damaged light fixtures with ones that matched the originals and even sourced the exact same paint we had used when repainting the house to maintain consistency in appearance. Additionally, they addressed all areas damaged by the leak, such as the ceiling drywall, fixing roof deck door, and repainted all affected surfaces. Their team also took the time to clean up thoroughly after completing the repairs, leaving the place spotless.This house was built by Grit Construction, so I’ve had firsthand experience with their quality of work. Their commitment to excellence, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service have always stood out. Working with them to resolve this issue reinforced my confidence in their craftsmanship, even after the one-year warranty had expired.What impressed me the most was that they managed to resolve the issue just a week before Christmas. Blake/Bryant and their team worked diligently to ensure the problem was fixed properly and addressed all the damage caused by the leaks. From replacing light fixtures to repainting all affected areas, they went the extra mile to match the original paint and ensure everything looked seamless.I’m extremely pleased with the service provided by Grit Construction, and Blake Ammons and Bryant Sandoval definitely deserve a raise or a nice bonus for their hard work and dedication. I highly recommend them for their expertise and outstanding customer service. -

I bought a house built by GRIT Construction in 2020 and have been happy with it, but recently I did discover some water damage. Despite being several years outside the warranty, I was able to easily get in touch with them and Blake was here to start working on it within a few hours. He kept me updated on what was going to be done and when. Blake doesnt miss any details. Within a few short days everything has been made right. GRIT stands behind their work. -

Grit Construction built our home in West Kensington/“Fishtown” about 3 years ago and we have been extremely pleased thus far. Our home is beautiful and the finishes/design choices far exceed what we have seen in many other new construction homes. The team at Grit, especially Blake, has been incredibly helpful throughout the time we have owned our home. My husband and I would absolutely recommend a home built by Grit. -

I purchased a new construction home built by Grit when the home was in the framing stage. The end result has greatly exceeded my expectations; the final product looks even better than the rendering. The builder Chris is extremely professional and has gone above and beyond to make sure I am happy with my home. The home inspector we used remarked the house is a better quality than he usually seems in Philly. I cant recommend Chris or Grit enough. -
