Building Dreams, One Home at a Time

 We recently finished our custom build with Gallman Construction LLC. From the initial quote to the final punchlist item was a great experience. Every email, text, and phone call was answered promptly and in detail. The vendors and subcontractors were helpful, responsive, and skilled. Many went above and beyond to ensure we got the finishes we envisioned while staying within our budget. Our build site always had activity due to Mr. Gallman's precise scheduling, and we are in our new home faster than we thought possible after speaking to other contractors. Mr. Gallman's budget process and invoicing are very transparent. I was even given a list of his vendors to contact directly during the budget process so I could ensure the allowances would cover my selections. Each invoice submitted included an itemized amount for every budget item, and clearly reflected any change orders/impacts to the total build cost. Mr. Gallman also worked seamlessly with our lender to schedule bank inspections, request draws, and provide any supporting information required. In summary, we could not have asked for a better experience or outcome. We have already recommended Gallman Construction to our family and friends.

 What a fabulous experience! Much to our surprise the constructing of our new home was incredibly smooth and swift. The compliments from those in the business were nothing we anticipated. Other contractors, sub-contractors and even the bank were impressed with both the speed and quality of the progression. We have been in our home for 5 months, everyday of which we are very thankful. Of course we thank God for the blessings allowing our family this home, but we also are thankful for the relationships that lead us to meet our contractor, Danny Gallman. Danny's strong Christian beliefs and morals are clearly observed in all aspects of his life. My wife and I were most appreciative of Danny's integrity and his commitment to our family's best interests throughout the construction process. At the beginning of construction we were given a detailed schedule of the building process. This schedule was a very comprehensive, concise and accurate list of selection details and contacts. This list helped us to make timely decisions on products for the home so that Danny could keep the progress of our building ahead of schedule. On the occasion that we had questions or needed guidance on decision making, Danny was always available. Thus, allowing the process to stay ahead of schedule. Our home is beautiful and wonderfully built. I cannot wait to spend many years to come in this home. Danny is a wonderful contractor. He was helpful, organized, consistent and thorough. He became a friend and is still available to entertain any and all of our questions, even now, after the completion of our home. He even included a binder with each and every manual for our home appliances, fixtures and furniture. He made this a fun experience! Yes, a home building FUN Complete with a photo collection of progress. AMAZING! Jeremy and Julie Sharp

 To say that working with Danny was working with an extremely competent and well respected contractor that has a flawless process that keeps everything moving, and also stays in constant contact with his customers, feels like it would be an understatement. Danny worked like an advocate for us to ensure the process and experience of building our home was enjoyable. Everything from the comps and subs, that all have great respect for Danny as well. They were all very helpful and knowledgeable with there part of the process. The integrity and transparency that Danny operates with puts you at ease from day one. He was on site from the day they started the form to the day they did the final cleaning. It was very common for me to see something that we needed and Danny had already seen it and had it scheduled. My only regret is that I will not be building another house, but if I did there is no question who I would be using. Thank you, Danny for making our dream come true and making the entire experience one that we will always look back on fondly.

 This is one of the easiest reviews to write. Danny Gallman and Gallman Construction LLC is absolutely 5 stars out of 5. If you are looking to build a house, contact Danny Gallman. In our custom house building process, we contacted so many contractors, and Danny was by far the most responsive and helpful. He always responded to us, way before we were fortunate enough to hire him. In fact, we reached out multiple times to him with different plans and tons of questions over the course of a year, and each time he was quick to reply and give detailed, honest responses! His subcontractors were all nice and did excellent work. His suppliers were all very nice and had nothing but great things to say about him. We had multiple changes during the build, and Danny was able to accommodate those changes with no problem. During framing he even had some of the changes made the same day we discussed them! Any time there was a hold up Danny found a way to keep the house progressing so it wouldn’t cause delays. Most things ended up getting done ahead of schedule, and the house was completed earlier than what was expected based on the contract. Our experience with Gallman Construction put in other terms: Price: 5 stars out of 5 Professionalism and Friendliness: 5 Skill: 5 Timeliness: 5 Overall experience: 5 In short, if you are looking to build, you have to contact Danny Gallman, otherwise you are doing yourself a disservice.

 This was our first build so I don’t have much to compare with but here’s some things I can say about Danny and Gallman construction. Danny makes the building process as easy and painless as possible. This was our first and last build but if I ever do it again I’d go with Gallman construction without question. You’ll be hard pressed to find a more honest and fair person to build your home. There wasn’t a time that I called or texted (which was often) where I didn’t get an immediate response whether it was needing advice or just had a question. Danny takes great pride in his work and at times it felt like he was building our house for his own family which in my opinion is extremely important when making such a large investment. As I’m sitting here typing this I can’t think of one bad thing I can say about Danny or any of his subcontractors. Gallman construction gets a 5/5 from me and I feel strongly that if you allow Danny to build you home you will be very happy that you did.

 My husband and I have been thru the home building process twice before. When we decided to build our home to retire in, we had no doubt who we would get to build it. We looked for land for an while, chose a plan and got our bid. Danny helped up work up some changes we wanted in our home. When I went to meet with flooring, lighting, appliances, granite, and his subs, the process was very easy and professional. They all speak highly of him. We love our new home and recommend Gallman Construction highly. He was always a phone call away to answer questions or give advice. Willing to offer advice when asked for suggestions. Allow him to give you a bid on your new home build, you won't be sorry!

 From start to finish, Gallman Construction made building our dream home a wonderful experience. Mr. Danny’s honesty and high quality craftsmanship proved true throughout the process from early bidding to the very last nail. We appreciated the daily communication, job site cleanliness, detailed schedule, local/friendly vendors, and highest quality materials used. Dannys knowledge and hands on attitude made our (MANY lol) last minute changes easy to navigate. We truly appreciated the after closing customer service provided. Huge thank you to Mr. Danny & Gallman Construction LLC for making our dream a reality. 10/10 highly recommend anyone building in Livingston Parish to give him a call.

 It gives us great pleasure to write this recommendation on behalf of Gallman Construction LLC. What we appreciated most about Danny was how professional, conscientious, and productive he was during this whole process. He was always available to answer any question we had and offer advice when needed. His knowledge and expertise inspired trust and gave us confidence to move forward with our new home. Thank you Danny Gallman!

 Before Danny was even our contractor, he was just one phone call away. He had excellent communication (which we found so hard just looking at different contractors). Danny is down-to-earth, humble, and hardworking, and makes the building experience a lot more peaceful knowing you have someone that cares about his builds. With any delays or complications we’ve ever had through the build or even minor little things after, he was understanding and worked with us to find solutions. We’ve now been in our house since April 2021 and couldn’t be happier. I hope we get to get a spot next year to build our shop! Thanks, Danny, for everything

 We heartily recommend Gallman Construction. We looked at several builders but chose Danny for his attention to detail, exceptional reputation, and integrity. He made the building process fun and stress free. He was quick to respond, answer questions, and always remembered our preferences. We were amazed at the efficiency of his crew. Things got done quickly and often before schedule. The house we ended up with is more beautiful than we ever imagined. We could not be more pleased with Gallman Construction. Thanks, Danny!

 Gallman construction did an awesome job on our new home! If you are in the market to build a new home I highly recommend Danny Gallman! He is honest, hardworking and he makes the process enjoyable and easy!! Thanks Danny for our quality home and your patience with first time home builders!

 Our experience building our home with Danny was excellent! Everything he promised he delivered, on time and on budget, and always beyond our expectations. He is professional, honest, trustworthy, respected in the industry, patient, always accessible, knowledgeable, and just a really good guy. He expects the same level of professionalism from his subs, who were all great as well. We built a smaller home, but always felt as if we must be the only home he was building (which wasn't the case). People say building a home is difficult and stressful. Those people didn't have Danny as their builder. We got the home we wanted, for the price we wanted, with quality beyond what we dared hope for.

We will always recommend Danny to anyone who is getting ready to build!

We would highly recommend Gallman Construction to anyone looking to build their dream home.

 Danny is simply the best in the business! When choosing a builder for our final home we met with several builders who were more then capable of doing the job. However Danny stood above the rest. He was respectful, professional, and really listened and paid attention to the little details that it required to make a house a home. He was upfront with everything and there were no surprises! He even discussed ways for us to save money before and during the building process. If you are looking to build your custom home Danny Gallman and Gallman Construction should he your choice! We absolutely love our new home!

 Danny Gallman built our dream home. As many dreams as we had about having a new house, our experience with Danny surpassed them all. From start to finish it was a breeze. Rain or shine there was work happening at our house. It was so much fun to watch. Danny was easy to work with and was available to answer any questions we had along the way. If there was a problem, and there were NOT many at all, Danny took care of it and took care of it quickly. He built our dream home in what we think was record time! He is very well organized and stays on top of things. We are so happy to have a place so well-built and beautiful to raise our boys! Thank you so much to Danny and all of the people who work for him. We highly, without reservation recommend Gallman Construction.

 Danny made our house building flawless and completely non-stressful. He was always quick to respond, got things done, very thorough, and so easy to work with. Many people we encountered had nothing but good things to say, including the bank, workers, and supply companies. I trust his expertise without question. There is not a better builder out there! Best builder ever, hands down!

 I can personally attest to the quality of home built by Danny Gallman and Gallman Construction. I have been in several of him homes and have known him for over 20 years. He builds a good home, but more importantly, he is a quality individual. He is well known in the community and his reputation is sterling. I would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a quality home builder in the Walker or Livingston Parish area.

 For those of you who already know Danny Gallman none of this will come as a surprise. You already know that Danny exudes integrity. Some of you may know him as a friend, former classmate or teammate. He may be a member of your church or you have witnessed his interactions with his family. All of the qualities that you know about Danny on a personal level are displayed in his profession as well. We started our journey for a new home almost 2 years ago when I first contacted Danny about building a home for us. We were doing some initial discussion at the time and he was very helpful. It was awhile before we were ready to sell our existing home and move forward. We were a little apprehensive about the building process and decided to look for a house instead of building. We finally found the house we wanted and made an offer. We learned that it was recently put under contract and we did not get the house. Little did we know at the time but this turned out to be very fortuitous for our family. I contacted Danny again and explained our situation. He immediately (same day) went to look at the house we had lost. He helped me track down the blueprints for the house and provided me with a quote. We were excited about the opportunity to build a home for our family and a little nervous at the same time. As a matter of due diligence I decided to get quotes from several other reputable builders. The quote I received from Gallman Construction was not the cheapest of the 4 quotes I obtained, nor was it the most expensive. However, we were not looking for the cheapest, we were looking for the best and that’s exactly what we received. One of the things that stood out from the beginning was the details in our quote and contract. Our quote was very detailed. It was broken out into every segment (electrical, plumbing, HVAC, etc.) with details about what type of materials would be used. There were optional upgrades for different levels of energy efficiency in each area. There were no grey areas or areas that were not defined. Of the other 3 quotes, I received a 2 line email from one builder, a ¾ page quote that was very vague from another and one of them scribbled a few notes on loose leaf paper. We signed a contract with Gallman Construction in mid-June, 2012, poured our slab on June 27 and closed on or home on October 10th. We were apprised of all scheduled work on a weekly basis and notified immediately of any changes or updates to the work schedule. Danny was 100% accessible throughout the entire process. I spoke with him almost daily and I have no idea what his voice message says because he answered his phone every single time I called him during the process. There were several mornings during the hot summer months that I would call him and I could hear his tractor running in the background. He would stop his work while sitting on a tractor in the hot sun and take my call, patiently answer my questions and not rush me or make me feel like a burden. I don’t think you can find another builder with this level of commitment to their clients. The quality of our home has exceeded our expectations by a longshot. Keep in mind we had already seen this house as built by another contractor. That house pales in comparison to the home that Gallman Construction built for our family. Danny took a blueprint from a house built by another builder and built the house better than they had. The fit, finish and attention to detail are in another league. From my past experience in building, and shared experiences of close friends and relatives, I have learned that most contractors start with a base price and use the cheapest materials possible to achieve the end product and pocket any savings that they incur. Danny actually added back to our home with a few extras and additions that we were not expecting and used the highest quality materials. These were things that set our home apart from others and no doubt cut into his profit. Due to his actions it is apparent to us that quality and customer satisfaction are very important deliverables for Gallman Construction. Our experience with Gallman Construction was very pleasing and their services could not be more highly recommended. If anyone wants to see the quality you can come by anytime. If you are considering building a home you would be completely remiss if you did not consider Gallman Construction. Our many thanks go out to Danny and Rachel Mitchell Gallman for building a quality, beautiful, affordable home for our family!
