Client Reviews
Avalon
We had the pleasure of working with Dan, and the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Dan conducts his business with true white glove service - every detail is handled with care, professionalism, and a level of attentiveness that is increasingly rare in the industry. From the start Dan was deeply involved in the selection process, offering thoughtful guidance and sharing his extensive knowledge to help us make informed decisions. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure our project exceeded expectations. Dan is incredibly organized and runs a tight ship when it comes to project management. He was transparent and proactive in communicating timelines and any change orders, and his weekly updates - complete with progress photos - made it seamless for us to monitor the project even from a distance. Most impressively, our project was completed on time, within budget, and the final result far exceeded our expectations. Having worked with several general contractors over the years, Dan is hands down at the top of our list for any future work. We truly cannot recommend him and DRB Developers highly enough.
Sea Isle City
We hired DRB for a full interior renovation of our shore house, and from day one, we knew we had made the right choice with Dan. Managing a project of this scale remotely was daunting, but Dan's excellent communication and project management made the process smooth and stress-free. He understood our vision, delivered exceptional craftsmanship, and kept us confident that everything would be ready for the next summer season. We're thrilled with the results and will absolutely work with him again on future projects.
Avalon
We recently completed a renovation of our home with Dan, and could not be happier. From start to finish, his professionalism is top notch. The weekly updates and photos of the progress were extremely helpful. Even though our project “grew”, Dan was still able to meet our completion date. We would recommend Dan without hesitation.
Cape May
Dan led all aspects of the full renovation and expansion of our 140-year-old Victorian home in Cape May and did a superb job. The project remained on schedule from start to finish and the final product is first rate. Dan is a collaborative, trustworthy problem-solver that is deeply knowledgeable about all aspects of construction. We highly recommend Dan and wish him success with DRB Developers.
Stone Harbor
I had the pleasure of working with Dan during our major renovation project in Stone Harbor. Dan was very organized and professional throughout the project. He provided valuable insights and options as we navigated through the various phases of the construction. I highly recommend Dan for any building projects.
Avalon
We had the pleasure of working with Dan and his team on our Avalon renovation in 2023/24. Dan was our lead contact throughout our project. Through a collaborative effort between Asher Slaunwhite Architects and Dan’s site leadership we were able to maintain the charm and character of our 1962 cape style cottage. The craftsmanship and attention to detail was excellent and ultimately produced the elevated style beach cottage we were looking for. Our project experience with Dan was smooth and effortless. Dan is very well organized and coupled with his attention to the smallest of details, ensured a seamless project experience for us as owners. We also greatly appreciated his transparent communication as he kept us updated on progress throughout the project. We have the utmost trust in Dan and have no hesitation in recommending him for any construction project.
Stone Harbor
Dan Ball was the project manager on a renovation of my Stone Harbor home last year. The highest compliment that I can give him is that he “got” me. That, being the driver of our relationship, led to creative and collaborative solutions not only for problems but also for design. Many changes were made to the original architect’s drawings. All the subcontractors would remark on how organized Dan was and how he managed to keep the project on schedule. As a senior citizen and widow, I appreciated the time Dan took to discuss the financial benefits of various approaches to the building process. He is a keen observer who at the end of project would see a missing screw in a hinge, make a note of it, and replace it the next day. That end of job punch list, which is so often a nightmare, was ardently completed. I couldn’t be happier with the finished work.
Avalon
Dan Ball, recently served as project manager on our dream house on the water in Avalon. Dan was great to work with regarding the project. There were timing considerations as well as the property itself being on the water and building exactly what we wanted. Dan was able to do many things for this project. Most importantly he worked tirelessly to keep the project on time and when there were issues, he was able to provide solutions. The weekly updates of photos and status of the construction were greatly appreciated. Building a custom or semi-custom home is no small commitment so have someone like Dan on your team is a real asset.
