WE ARE A CUSTOM HOME BUILDER THAT KEEPS YOUR NEEDS IN MIND EVERY STEP OF THE WAY
Project Location:
Rancharrah, Reno NV
When you start out to build something that you have thought about for a long time and in fact, my wife did all the preliminary design work. You really, really want the process to go smoothly and the result to meet your expectations. When we met with Kreg and Justin Rowe, we had already dispensed with one builder and now were much more scrutinizing in our investigation and selection. We were impressed with their willingness to work with us and accommodate a few special requests. This was very important to us. Next, we met their people, team, and project manager. All worked hard, all were professional, and all worked to make our house the way we wanted it. Our 5,000 sq. ft. home, with some unique features, was completed in 14 months during the covid pandemic. Our neighbor’s homes (smaller) took 2 and 2.5 years respectively to complete. I want to stress that Tanamera’s team never cut corners and addressed any issues straight forward and honestly and always involved us in any critical decision making. These are qualities of a good organization and of good business sense in general. Keep your client involved and happy. I highly recommend Tanamera Construction. They worked diligently and with us directly to make our dream a reality. Our home has received praise from all who have visited and we credit that admiration in great part to our home builder. We once again thank you and truly appreciate the work you did for us. If you are thinking about building a unique custom home, make sure to talk to the Tanamera team. Professional from start to finish. –Glenn & Pamela Gray

Designing and building our beautiful custom home with Tanamera Construction has been a dream come true. We started our project from out-of-state; and I researched “best quality builders in Northern Nevada”. Tanamera came up repeatedly, and the reviews were all glowing. Their website explains every step of the process, and I was impressed. About an hour into our first meeting with Kreg Rowe (Founder & Managing Partner), we knew there was no need to look further and have not been disappointed. 2020 was a very challenging year, and my husband and I often discussed the fact that we were fortunate to have Kreg and Tanamera working for us. They are honest, caring and absolutely reliable. The quality of their employees and the work they do is of the highest standards. They have long-standing relationships with subs and suppliers that helped tremendously during this pandemic year where high quality workers were in short supply. We couldn’t be happier with our fabulous new home! –Bob & Carolyn Mitchell

We are very pleased with our overall experience with Tanamera. They are a general contractor that is engaged in all phases of the custom home project. They helped select the right architect that could build the contemporary design home we were interested in at our price point. During the design process, we worked closely with their internal designer (Shiloh) who helped us make excellent selections within our overall budget. She was a pleasure to work with throughout the project. Making our selections early was key to staying in budget. We did get delayed due to weather, but overall Tanamera stayed on schedule. Even during the COVID crisis, they made progress and delivered on our promise date. The workmanship of their vendors was good, but our project manager and supervisor from Tanamera were key to the success of our project. They were very familiar with Arrowcreek and did all the interaction with the HOA with no issues. We would highly recommend Tanamera. –Susan Cote

My wife and I worked with Tanamera Construction for our new home in Schaffer’s Mill. They made the entire process so easy. They have an in-house design team that made the process seamless from start to finish. As this was our first home we built, I can now see in retrospect how difficult it could have been to work with a GC without these assets. To have someone readily available to help with all the design selections at no added cost was invaluable. And working with an architect that has previously designed in the community, and worked with Tanamera, was great. They were aware of the HOA design requirements and restrictions which avoided a lot of revisions and modifications that would have otherwise occurred. The alternative of us finding our own architect with no experience in this area, a designer who has never worked with the general contractor, and a contractor to coordinate the build it would have been a nightmare. This approach just makes so much more sense! –Dean Vistnes

We unconditionally recommend the Tanamera Team for your personal custom home project. Justin Rowe, Kreg Rowe, Kraig Knudsen, Eli Moya, Shiloh Nickovich, and the entire Tanamera Custom Home Team operate at the highest professional level and are dedicated to delivering excellent value for a fair price. We are very pleased with our custom home built by Tanamera and thankful for their professionalism, expertise, and responsiveness. Shiloh Nickovich and the design group are an incredible, unexpected aspect which made our home even better than ever expected. –Rob and Chris Winkel

My husband and I just completed building our retirement home in Arrowcreek, and we are so excited! This was our first experience with building a custom home, and the Tanamera team was awesome to work with. Especially since we are not local to the area, it was comforting to have the Tanamera team looking out for us. Special kudos go out to Jennifer who held my hand and gave me terrific advice as I agonized over every decision. I never knew there were so many styles of doorbell covers, door knob plates, and cabinet/drawer pulls to choose from! She learned my tastes and steered me in the right direction. The team in charge of the construction also deserves much of the credit. When we had a 6-week delay due to a change in the floor plan (from me changing my mind, again) they were able to accommodate the change with the subcontractors. And they dealt with the unexpected huge boulder that was discovered under our lot during the excavation process without an impact to our timeline. I have been impressed with the quality of workmanship. The few minor warranty items have corrected have been handled promptly and without any pushback. I talked to a few of the new neighbors who told me that the site workers were pleasant and responsible in abiding by the HOA rules. Speaking of the HOA, Kreg did a fantastic job of representing us at the HOA’s architectural review board when we were unable to be present in person.
We are happy we chose the Tanamera team for our dream home. -Richardson

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know what a great job Jennifer is doing as our liaison during the building process. She is very responsive to all of our questions, and has done a great job (in concert with Mike Davidson) in keeping us up to date with construction photos. She always responds quickly to any enquiry and always follows through on any commitments. You have a great group of folks working for you and they make the building process go about as smoothly as can be expected given the many issues that can arise, especially when we are on the other side of the country. We very much appreciate the efforts all your team are making on the construction of our house, and we are very glad we chose Tanamera.
Diane and I are very happy with the house, and also very happy with the dealings we have had with Tanamera. As you say, there were a few frustrations along the way – inevitable when building a house from the other side of the country and dealing with a challenging HOA, but the end product is wonderful. From our initial dealings with Justin, and on to our many, many interactions with Jennifer and Shiloh, and finally with Mike Davidson, we always felt like your staff had our best interests at heart. The advice and help we received along the way from Jennifer, Shiloh, and Mike certainly made for a better home at the end of the building process. We enjoyed working with all three, they are all exceptional ambassadors for your company. While we have singled out three of your employees here, our overall impression of Tanamera as a company is that it is a company focused on customer satisfaction and always treating customers fairly and ethically.
We would not hesitate to use Tanamera again, or to recommend it to our friends. -McCormick

I have built 3 other custom homes when we moved to different parts of the country. Tanamera has been our best experience by a wide margin. Their competency in commercial building is a tremendous asset to their custom home division. They are masters at economies of scale and finding less expensive ways to do things, with absolutely no compromise to the quality of their work and the relationships they have with their subs. Tanamera executives (the top people!) are hands on, creative problem solvers and available when needed. They are very talented at what they do. The partnership they forged with our architect was refreshing, particularly when they hadn’t worked with him previously and we had to trim some cost from the initial scope of the project. Their design staff is first rate and that relationship is so strong we consider them friends of ours that will stay in touch well after our home is completed. We understand Tanamera built the 2014 HGTV Dream Home in Truckee, CA. Our experience with Tanamera has proven to us that we truly have the right team building our dream home in Lake Tahoe.

The Tanamera team was phenomenal to work with throughout our year-long custom home construction — and we were no easy client! We dreamed for years of building a second home in Tahoe and they worked hard — with great patience — to deliver the exact outcome we had envisioned.
The quality of the construction and care of craftsmanship is unmatched in anything we’ve seen in the area thus far. – Barsi

We have never built a home before, so we came in open and excited to build our dream home in Truckee, CA. Kregg and Justin Rowe, of Tanamera showed us their work, they provided an incredible architect that they worked side by side. From design to finish Tanamera far exceed our expectations. Always professional, detail and design perfection. We loved working with their design team- Jennifer and Shiloh- awesome. Our home is incredible. I would love to share pictures with you.
We have nothing but excellent reviews of every aspect, including the budget. – Moore

Tanamera Construction was so easy to work with. Big company resources with a small company service. Their service is excellent and communication with all players involved was tremendous. We were given hands-on attention throughout the entire process and got all questions and concerns taken care of immediately. Every employee we dealt with went above and beyond to ‘hand-hold’ throughout the building process as this was our first time ever building a home.
Highly recommend Tanamera if building in the Tahoe/Reno area. You won’t be disappointed! – Bertacco
