    Testimonials



    • “From the first time we entered Stonebridge Glen and saw our “Dream Lot” to the final walk through, our experience with Gold Seal Homes was first class.  Our suggestions were met with enthusiasm, limitations were explained to us, and nothing was held back from us.  Because of this we had no bad surprises and no hidden costs or expenses.

      Our “Dream Lot” now holds our “Dream Home”, and thanks to the professionalism of Murray and his entire staff the house building experience was an entirely pleasurable event.”

      -Ray & Janice



    • “This home purchase has been an amazing experience. We are more than happy with the home and MOST importantly, we are very grateful for the professionalism shown by the builder, his office staff and Lead Hand. Overall an excellent purchase and value that will last for many years to come. 

      Our builder takes an active part in this community, and this is one of those intangibles that reassures us that Gold Seal will always be here, in the very community where they build.  We cannot say enough about how well we were looked after during the purchase process and right up to this day….never a doubt that should anything arise, Gold Seal will be here to       make it right. An EXCELLENT builder to do business with.”

    • Tammy's Dream Ensuite


      “After speaking to dozens of builders and viewing as many showhomes we could find we were blessed to stumble across Murray Pound and Gold Seal Homes.

      The quality of work put into their homes was unbelievable! We were amazed to see how many upgrades were added into Gold Seals standard package. Once we chose a house plan Murray held our hands through the whole process, not only explaining each step clearly but questioning us to learn about us and what we wanted so he could add to the plan and give us everything we wanted plus more. He continually came up with new ideas to give our home that extra wow factor without the wow price.

              The knowledge Murray and his lead hand Richard put into our home made it clear building was not just a job, but surely something these men loved doing.  They truly take pride in their designs and strive for perfection.

             Gold Seal Homes is one company you can rely on to not only deliver what they promise, but to go above and behond. I can’t say enough about how wonderful this experience was without gushing. We are thrilled with our Dream Home!!!”

      -Brad & Tammy



    •  ”After just a few meetings, we were confident that Gold Seal Homes was the right builder for us.  We looked forward to each new phase of our building experience and were never disappointed with the results.  Now that we are living in our beautiful home, we pinch ourselves each day.”
