BUILDING ARCHITECTURE INTERIORS

“Scott and Richard were totally committed to delivering a product high in quality with a design that addressed all of our objectives. We couldn't be happier with the result. Another pleasant surprise has been their total commitment to resolving, or helping us resolve, post construction issues whether it involved problems that cropped up afterwards, help with ongoing maintenance or improvements we wanted to make over and above the original design. 'Service after the sale' is too trite. We experienced total commitment to our satisfaction, and made two very good friends along the way.”

~Alan Kerschner

 

“I really can't say enough good things about Scott and Richard. Thoughtful and comprehensive design skills to really customize the homes they built for us. Classy yet current taste that exudes warmth and style in nearly every single feature. No short cuts taken. Intense, ever watchful and insight construction management. Would I recommend them or use them again? You bet: they've built two houses for us, remodeled a third. But then when a freak flood nearly wiped out our Deer Valley home and all the possessions, even before I got the first call, it was Richard and Scott who were both on site calling in the disaster recovery and protecting our investments. And of course, in their talented and caring hands they brought our home back to a new and even better life. I've built or remodeled a total of nine homes...Scott and Richard are the best team I've ever had.”

~Hal Hinkle

 

“10 years ago you built my home for me and it was clear from the outset that you really cared about the project. You worked with my architect and me from afar, you found the finest craftsmen and the result was stunning. What impressed me the most was that for months after I moved in Richard would appear every morning to tweak all the little things that always need adjusting. CARE is the word that stands out the most when I think of you. You all cared that my house turned out beautifully. You still do. Whenever I want to do something to the house or have a problem, I know I can turn to you for help, advice or an answer. And of course no corner was ever cut. Everything was done perfectly. It was a pleasure to work with you and to have become personal friends with you.”

~Beano Solomon

 

“We had our new home completely remodeled 2 years ago by Scott and his crew. My husband and I could not have been happier with the results-we LOVE our new home. The remodel was a challenge as so much needed to be done and we had a limited budget. Scott not only listened to the vision we had, he made it exactly what we had in mind. We worked so well together it seemed very simple. Everyone hears the night mares about doing a remodel-we did not experience any of it! Scott was always organized in setting up vendor appointments, on time, courteous and attentive to my husband and my sometimes varied ideas. His crew was excellent and did the remodel right on schedule with a minimum of intrusion on the surrounding neighborhood. Our house is now our home. We have highly recommended the Jaffa Group. Our only regret is that we don't seeing Scott on a regular basis now that it's done!”

~Bill and Jean Martin

 

“The Jaffa Group did a complete remodel for me over the summer of 2009. They completed the project on time and on budget. The father-son team of Scott and Richard proved to be invaluable. Scott has the design expertise of not just a builder but an interior designer. He made the finish selection process too easy. Richard, who handles the contractors side of the work, was at my house no less than three times a day watching over his subs. In today's world, a subcontractor with a job has to be a good one, so he keeps them on their toes. There is nothing less than a mutual respect for high quality work, and the ability to get the job done on time, and the first time!!!! You can't go wrong with Jaffa.”

~Scott Maizlish

 

“I had Jaffa Group do a small remodeling job on a bedroom and bathroom. My home was originally designed and built by them as well. The remodel went very well. I am completely happy with their work. They are very professional and very neat when they come in and do a job. I would certainly recommend them as builders and designers.”

~Phyllis Maizlish

 

“The Jaffa Design Group is unique in their knowledge of what makes a great home, architecture, design and quality construction. The selection process is a joy because Scott Jaffa has handpicked all the best companies to work with i.e. appliances, cabinets, plumbing, closets, etc. Scott and all his employees are as concerned about your home as you are.”

~Geri Manning & Buck Schottland

 

“The Jaffa Group is outstanding, in both quality and creative design. They are not only home builders, but relationship builders. Without question, their approach, resources, architectural knowledge, creativity and detail-oriented construction make them #1 in our book.”

~Dr. Frederick & Sharon Miller

 

“I have been doing work for the Jaffa's for about 15 years now and I have always had great respect for them. They are fair, honest, have high integrity and always require the best from my company and products. We supply carpet and hardwood flooring and they always want the best quality products and the best quality installations. They never cut corners and require that we give our best. I also would like to say that their homes, when completed, are absolutely gorgeous. I had Scott Jaffa do the design on a home that my wife and I remodeled and he saved us time, money and the end result was beautiful. I highly recommend them to anyone. Feel free to contact me directly if you want more information or details.”

~Scott Workman, Renaissance Flooring

 

“Closet Factory has enjoyed working with the Jaffa Group on several projects. We continue to be impressed by their uncompromising approach to quality and their clarity of vision. As a subcontractor, having a client who is this organized and professional at all levels of their operation makes working for them a pleasure.”

~Amanda Trickett, Closet Factory

 

“Working with Jaffa Group is a pleasant and easy experience. They are very educated about the products they use in their projects, as well as new innovative products available. Their purchasing system with PO numbers and typed order sheets prevents miscommunication when placing orders. It also helps track the stages of the project, and ensures everything is correct at billing time. By taking the time to be organized up front they prevent doing work twice, or rushing orders. This ensures the best quality and price when ordering materials since it allows time for preparation.”

~Jason Price, ProBuild Lumber

 

“Buying a second home is hard when you are not familiar with the builders in a new area. Purchasing a home from the Jaffa's did not end at the time the title transfers - they took the service after the sale to the next level. They have been available in person and by phone to answer any questions. They used quality companies that stand behind the house to ensure the house is well maintained and enjoyable each time we use it.”

~The Block Family

 

“Jaffa projects are without equal in quality and attention to detail. The advantages of having the architect, designer, and builder all-in-one result in the most well thought, well produced, product in town. Working with Jaffa group continues to be a pleasure.”

~Cody Blonquist, Ridgeline Electric, Inc.

 

“I have been fortunate to assist Scott Jaffa with Decorative lighting on many projects. He has a gift of quickly picking up on his clients lighting style. Pulling together a complementary look for the vision he creatively sees.”

~Mary Beroset, Wasatch Lighting

 

“Our first interaction with the Jaffa's was in 1999, when my mother purchased one of their homes as a vacation home for our large extended family. The house ten years later, is still incredible. It is a timeless house that still looks brand new. Five years ago, my husband and I decided to move our family from Ft. Lauderdale, Florida to Park City. We purchased a home that needed some major interior work done in a very short time frame. Scott and Richard were amazing. They cared so much that they would dream about my house... worrying that everything was being remodeled efficiently and making smart decisions on a budget. They are wonderful people who build quality homes. If I could do it over again, I would build a home from the ground up with them. Scott's taste is incredible and he listens and encourages any ideas you have into your home. If you are a lucky enough person to have the chance to build with them, you will never regret it. Everyone I know who has a home built by them, ends up being their friends. You can't help but love that family.”

~Jody & Stew Gross

 

“Jaffa group is always on the cutting edge of design. Scott always looks for the new and innovative products for their homes Jaffa group is always a pleasure to work with.”

~Steve Lightfoot, Ferguson

 

“Beantown Painting wishes to thank the Jaffa Group for the opportunity to work together in the construction of the award winning green home in the 2009 Parade of Homes. Together we have formed a long lasting relationship both with the builders and sub contractors who have all done outstanding work! Throughout the years of our working together, the Jaffa Group has always demanded and received the highest quality of work to please their clients. We at Beantown Painting look forward to grow together with the Jaffa Group.”

~Nancy Norcross, Beantown Painting

 

“In 1995 I was lucky enough to meet and create a very strong friendship and professional relationship with Scott and Richard Jaffa. Not only are Scott and Richard committed to their clients, they are committed to the relationships they have with their suppliers as well. They treat their suppliers with respect and know that they will get the very best products and service because of the care they put into the relationship. I take great pride in knowing that with the Jaffa Group we are valued and a part of something very special. Never have I had such a satisfied feeling walking through some of the most beautiful homes in the State of Utah and knowing that my company and my employees were a part of what made the home spectacular. Every project the Jaffa Group takes on is spectacular and with every new project a new relationship is created. It is a pleasure being a part of their team.”

~Jennie Tanner-Jelsma, Tanner Glass & Hardware

 

“Being corporate gypsies, we have built and remodeled more residences than we care to remember. When it came time to completely remodel and expand our Park City home we were fortunate enough to engage Jaffa Group as our partners in the journey. A few words about Jaffa Group: Smart, honest, creative, focused, patient, and collaborative. Richard and Scott, with their unparalleled experience in design and construction captured our vision and made it our home.”

~Michael & Gale Corcoran

 

“We highly recommend Scott Jaffa. He is very talented and creative. His eye for style is brilliant.”

~Mary and Steve Haskins

 

“We wouldn't hesitate for a second to build with Scott and Richard Jaffa again! Our recent design / build experience with Jaffa Group has been stellar down to the tiniest of details! One of our biggest challenges (obsessions really!) was fast tracking our project so that we wouldn't miss the next ski season. We fully designed the house with Scott by the time we closed on the lot (3 months), broke ground in September of 08 the week after closing, and Jaffa Group met our challenge and delivered our beautiful mountain home 15 months later (December 09). On the architectural design and finish side of things, Scott offered great ideas and direction. He worked fast, he was very responsive to our questions, ideas, input, and he allowed us to build 'our' house. On the other hand, he didn't ever hesitate to voice his opinion and stick to his guns when he felt strongly about something. We often noticed along the way that due to his acute sense of quality and attention to detail, he reworked things, sometimes un-blatant things...behind walls, in the ground, in the systems...which a lay person might not ever notice. We also noticed that the trades-people, most of whom had long standing relationships with Scott and Richard, responded swiftly and professionally during problem solving scenarios and changes in direction.

 

There was an obvious mutual respect amongst the whole building team. On the construction side of the coin, in the macro picture, Richard's years of building experience and professional relationships offered up a dynamite team of subs who powered through our stringent time line and the winter, to deliver our project on time and on budget! In sum, between Richard's long standing credibility and sense of humor, and Scott's high energy and efficient guidance, our collaboration with Jaffa group was productive, respectful and really a lot of fun. We are always happy for prospective Jaffa clients to contact us with questions!”

~Brian & Kirsten Shirken

 

“Seven years after purchasing a dramatic Park Meadows view home from Scott Jaffa, we are still struck by the exceptional design and layout of our home. Visitors are invariably awed by the view, the dramatic spaces and the livability of the floor plan. Throughout this time, Scott has remained ever-available as a source of advice and references for any homeowner questions that have arisen. I would highly recommend Scott's firm both for their dedication to service and the incredible design and creativity he brings to his work.”

~Joy Covey

 

“The house Scott designed and Richard built for us in Deer Crest is our 14th 'last' project, and clearly the one we have enjoyed the most. Scott's creativity in finding unused spaces which we could use for a bear cave for our grandsons and, separately, a tea room for our granddaughters, added very special touches to an already spectacular project. Since we were the first home in Deer Crest, Richard's perseverance in dealing with those working on the infrastructure, marshaling himself and his crew up the ski trails since there were no roads, and dealing with Scott so he did not over engineer the project in order to win design awards, were all strong pluses in a very special relationship. We are enormous fans of the Jaffa Group.”

~Phil & Naomi Lippincott

 

“The Jaffa Group is hands down the best company to design and build a custom home in Park City. Scott and Richard do what they say, when they say and have a level of integrity that is often missing in this industry. We had never built a custom home before and had heard horror stories from our friends about the building process. We selected the Jaffa Group to design and build our home and the process was easy, fun, on time, and most importantly, on budget. Our friend's were amazed at how easy the process was for us and at the quality of the finished product. Scott has an amazing talent and love for architecture/design and it shows in the finished product. We highly recommend the Jaffa Group if you are looking to build a custom home.”

~Cal & Mary Regan

 

“Our family purchased a new Jaffa home in 2007 and we love it! Scott Jaffa was very helpful to us during closing and after! The home is beautifully appointed with top of the line appliances, beautiful woodwork and stone throughout. The home has been very easy to maintain and it is a joy to come home to! We highly recommend Scott Jaffa Homes!”

~Bryant and Esther Burke

 

“Designing and building our home in Park City with Scott and Richard Jaffa was an extraordinary experience. Scott's architectural and design guidance produced a home of high quality, beauty and functionality. He is truly a gifted visionary in his field. Beyond the design and involvement in every detail from start to finish, the building project stayed on task, on time and on budget. Attention was paid to every detail by the Jaffa Design team and we could not have felt more fortunate than to be in their hands to create our home. We found our first home design and building experience to be so professional and complete with quality and integrity, that we proceeded a few years later to hire Jaffa Design/Build on another project, our second home in Park City. Their experience in the field and interest in melding their client's desires and needs together leads them to be a stand out leader in the custom home building industry. It is rare to find such a blend of honesty, passion and talent all in one place with execution that is flawless.”

~Bill & Rochelle Broach

 

“We wanted to take a moment and express what a great builder Jaffa Group is to work for. We have performed various tasks for Jaffa over the last 4 years or so and have found them to be of strong integrity and character from the Jaffa owners to the superintendents. If they say something they follow through. All their projects run smoothly and are very organized. Also their quality and craftsmanship is hard to beat, just look at their awards. It brings us great pride to come in at the end of a new home build and make these beautiful homes shine for their customers. As a subcontractor we have always been paid on time and never have to worry if we are going to be paid. In this market it really means a lot and I value my business relationship with Jaffa Group and look forward to many more years with them. I would love to build a home in Park City and when I get ready Jaffa will be my only phone call.”

~Steve Underwood, A-Team Cleaning Management

 

“It has been my privilege to work with Jaffa Group/Design Build for the past 15+ years. The projects we have worked on together have ranged from Multi-Unit Town Home Developments to high-end Remodeling & custom New Home Construction with some commercial work as well. Their projects are always clean, well managed & on schedule. They have a unique advantage to other builders in the industry because both the Architect/Designer (Scott Jaffa) & the Builder/Developer (Richard Jaffa) is under one roof. This has created such a rare cohesive symbiotic working relationship & as a result their projects have less stress, run smooth & stay on schedule. From a design perspective they are very creative & innovative & their projects are always unique & beautiful. They also challenge us to be just as creative & innovative & to provide the same levels of quality & service. They have always been courteous & professional & have provided both us & their clients with the highest levels of customer service, quality craftsmanship & integrity. We are honored to work with them & we highly recommend them for your consideration.”
