"It was an awesome experience building our home with Watermark Builders.
Gary Lee was extremely helpful on helping us pick out materials at discounted prices. We were also very appreciative on the freedom allowed on constant changing structural designs with minimal additional costs. Also, we were really amazed by Gary's calm nature and demeanor towards us and his contractors. But most of all, we treasured highly his Christian integrity and character that reflected through his business."

"I’m in the mortgage business so it’s not unusual for me to come in contact with someone searching for a builder. I offer three bits of advice:

He built my home in 2002, so I speak from experience. Ten years after construction, if I had a problem or question I have no doubt Gary would be at my front door immediately. Gary Lee will exceed your expectations."

–Ed Kampf

"Our home, custom built ten years ago by Watermark Homes, was a dream come true. Working with Gary Lee was a positive, exciting and rewarding experience. Gary provided guidance in matters of selection and design, was available to us throughout the process, and insisted that the end result was not only something we loved but a space in which we could live. His can-do attitude, eye for design and gentle manner made for an easy and enjoyable process. Watermark Homes did not just meet our expectations but exceeded them, and helped us to create our dream home."

"Our building experience with Watermark was excellent. Gary Lee and his team are professional, honest and always available. Gary was involved in the planning stages which was helpful in creating the home of our dreams within our budget. The most gratifying part of our experience has been the fact that Gary has ensured that we were always 100% satisfied with the finished product. This kind of service provides the peace of mind that is needed when undertaking the single largest investment you will make in your lifetime. We have been in the house for 3 years and we couldn’t be happier with the results and Watermark remains just a phone call away."

-Dr. Allen Deutsch

"I researched and interviewed several builders before I chose Gary Lee of Watermark to build my house (and my second house).  Gary was the only one that could match my dream with my budget.  I was impressed that he could build me a custom home of luxurious livability at a reasonable price. He was personally involved during every phase of construction, before, during, and after. Gary is committed to building homes of superior craftsmanship in a manner that is meant to last."

Watermark Builders puts into every home the lessons and innovation of hundreds of built homes. “The last thing I want to worry about – whether I’m on a build site, or on vacation, or even at my daughter’s recital – is a customer having trouble with their Watermark home.” says Gary Lee, Watermark founder and president. “With every home I not only bring all of the best of everything we’ve learned along the way, but I am also striving to innovate.
