Tom,
I would just like to say that living at the Village at River's Edge is better than I ever expected.
Today was my 60 day "Check up" or "Tune Up" or whatever you call it. Mike and his crew showed up right on time and immediately put down drop cloths to cover the lovely wooden floors and got right to work looking for things to fix. There really wasn't all that much, just a few things from settling and the bumps and bruises of moving. Really quite painless. Mike even fixed the closet doors that I hadn't added to my list. He really goes the extra mile.
When all was said and done we went into the basement where I pointed out a small amount of moisture that I noticed from this mornings rains near the sliding door. He went outside and said that he would be back tomorrow, when its dry and would put sealant along the exterior foundation where its settled. And we talked about the area in the backyard where the rock border seems to abruptly end and then begin again about 25 feet later. He said once the ground firms up (summertime) he'll see if he can drop some of the smaller boulders over here to finish it off. What a good man you have representing DDC.
I just want to say how impressed I am with their professionalism. Kudos to Mike -- he really goes the extra mile to make sure we're all happy to live here.
I also told Mike that if anyone would like to see how the French doors look inside a unit or check out the cedar closet installation I would be more than happy to show them.
And I can't forget Earl. Earl is very attentive to my needs either over the phone or via the Internet.
Thanks again and keep doing just what you're doing. Your formula works.
-Best personal regards,-

Hope all is well with you. I just wanted to send you a quick note to let you know what people are saying about this home. Our friends and people from the neighborhood are starting to come by.
The first reaction is, "What is this?!" They are looking for me to say it is a Montgomery or something else. They can't believe how custom and well laid out it is. Second is the view. I don't know why no one realized we have a view. Third are the archways. Everyone LOVES the three archways in the hallway. I tell everyone that you came up with the idea. I have two beautiful antique chairs in the hall that really send everyone over the edge. After the archways, people start noticing the details -- in the cabinets, colors, moldings, flooring, etc. Everyone loves how the home is so spacious, but warm at the same time. Some people have even come over a couple of times to show their friends. People are stunned!!
I wish you could hear the reactions yourself!! I will keep you posted. I feel like I live in a magazine layout!!
Many thanks, M & D |

Tom, Charise, Jeannie, Mike
Thank you so much for building us such a beautiful home. We love it.
We really appreciate everything you have done for us. Whenever we walk around our home we’re reminded of how lucky we are. Thank you.
Happy Holidays, K & S D |

Dear Tom, Charise, Jean and DiPlacido Development,
J. and I can not thank you enough for building our family a beautiful home. We love it. As you know, this was our first time building a house and we appreciate your guidance (and tolerance)
I can honestly say that I have lived in Massachusetts for eight years now and have never felt “at home” Well, since moving onto Weetamoo Way, I finally can call Massachusetts my home (and that is a lot coming from a true New Yorker). Not only is Wampanoag Estates a wonderful neighborhood, Wrentham seems to be all we were looking for in a community to raise our family. We are so excited to have wonderful times with our family and build memories that we will cherish forever.
Tom – We hope we were not too much trouble for you with all of our changes. Your attention to detail, expertise in building and design and your calm demeanor made it a pleasure and lots of fun to build a home with you. You made the process so easy and we had heard nightmare stories of building and we can say we would do it over again in a second. We could not believe what a nice experience it was and the job you did. We love it.
Charise – thanks for always being available for us, giving us many good suggestions and your upbeat personality.
Jean – We loved working with you. You are an asset to DiPlacido Development and thank you for keeping us on track and answering our many questions and concerns.
Over all thank you so much…
K & J S |

J. and I just wanted to share our appreciation and complete satisfaction with the punch list process. Mike, as usual was absolutely wonderful. His level of professionalism, integrity and enthusiasm in every thing he does is a tribute to the DiPlacido Corporation. In fact, every member of his team performed at the highest level of expectation.
We want to especially thank you for all of the effort you put into the planning and scheduling process. Without your expertise, we are sure things would not have gone as smoothly as they always have from the start of this project until today.
We have a great deal of respect and admiration for Tom. Without his vision we could not have achieved our dream. We have worked practically our whole lives trying to get to this level and we are proud to say we own a home built by Diplacido Development Corporation.
We wish all of you great success in all of your future endeavors!

Dear Tom,
Thank you for the Gift Certificate to Roadside Café and for the pens.
We also want to thank you for the beautiful home you built us. This was the first house we had built and it was a pleasure to work with someone who is so conscientious and takes pride in the work he does.
Sincerely,
D & L |

Dear Tom and Charise,
Thank you for building us such a beautiful home. We absolutely love it and the neighborhood. We sincerely appreciate your flexibility and professionalism throughout the building process. Thanks also for finishing our house early. It meant a lot to us. Thank you for everything.
Sincerely,
K.L. & S |

Dear Tom,
We'd like to thank you very much for squeezing us into your very busy summer to enclose our deck. It’s awesome and we love it.
You are very lucky to have such nice and helpful people working for you – Mike, Henry and Jean. They are great.
Many thanks again.
A,M & H |

Tom, Cherise, and Jeanie:
Just saw the website for the first time and thought we would take the opportunity to say that it looks great and also let you know how happy we are in the new home and the neighborhood.
You have exceeded all of our expectations with your flexibility, patience, creativity and friendliness. The quality of the work goes without saying.
Thanks a lot.

Dear Tommy,
We wanted to take a moment to extend our gratitude for all of your help and
support through our home building experience. We are finally starting to slow
down and enjoy our beautiful new home. We especially wanted to thank you for
going out of your way during our final septic inspection. We were so disappointed
thinking we had missed our occupancy permit again. Then we found out that you
had personally taken care of the matter of the engineering certificate. We
know you’re really busy and we greatly appreciated the effort you made
to get us settled.
Sincerely,
L. and C. |
| |
… Thanks again for the beautiful new home- we love it!
Sincerely,
J. and K. |
| |
Dear Tommy,
B... and I wanted to thank you very much for helping us work through
our kitchen
situation.
We truly appreciate how quickly you were able to respond and that you
took the time to tell us in person.
We feel that you really are about making your customers happy.
Thank you again,
B. and K. |

Dear Tom,
You can't imagine the BIG smile on my face when I opened your
letter and gift certificate
To J...’! I couldn’t be more thrilled! Thank you so much for your
thoughtfulness– You are right we did suffer a LOT of stress at the end of our building process,
but much has
been learned. In the mean-time, we absolutely love our home and the entire neighborhood.
We are so happy that we were able to work through all of the ‘crazy’ moments
during the building
process because the end result is well worth it! Thanks so much again for the
gift certificate.
It is very much appreciated! Take care and we will be seeing you ‘around’!
Finest Regards,
P. and N. |

Dear Tom,
A belated thanks for the storm door…We feel that DDC is one
of the best homebuilders in terms of organization, workmanship, and
on time delivery… We are happy to be homeowners in one of Wrentham’s
finest neighborhoods.
Best Regards,
J. and G. |

Dear Tom & Staff,
B... and I would like to thank you for doing an outstanding job
in our new home. We are very pleased with the quality. Also your
organization with your company is to be commended.
Thanks again
B. and M.
P. S. the kids love the house too |

To all at DDC,
We wanted to thank you, first, for our beautiful home. We could
not be more pleased with the outcome! We truly appreciated your patience
with us as first – time home buyers requiring much guidance.
Jeanie was, and still is, a tremendous resource for us.
Throughout the entire process, although overwhelming for us at times, we had
the utmost confidence in Tommy and the choices he helped us make. Thank you,
again, for an absolutely enjoyable “building” experience and a
fabulous home that we hope to grow into soon!
Sincerely,
C. and T. |

Tommy,
Because you are such a Terrific builder, waiting for our new house
has been a painless and even exciting experience. Thank you very
much!
R. and J. |

Dear Tom,
We just wanted to thank you and your staff for all their hard work
in building our
beautiful new home in Wampanoag Estates. We couldn't’t be more pleased
with the final outcome and choosing to build with you was a decision we will
never regret.
The process could not have gone more smoothly from our perspective.
From our first
meeting with you to the final walk through, we were consistently impressed
with your
thoroughness, patience, timeless, knowledge, quality, ideas, attention to detail,
dedication, business savvy and personality. All this and more proved to be
a winning combination—no easy accomplishment for finicky people like
us!
Not a day goes by when we don’t pull into the driveway or
walk through our front door and comment to each other on how beautiful
everything turned out. It is this house that has become our home
and we plan to enjoy it for many years to come.
Tom, thank you again for everything and please extend our appreciation
to your entire staff, crew, subcontractors, and vendors for a job
well done. You have helped make our dream home a reality and it was
truly a pleasure to work with all of you.
Sincerely,
J. and L. |
| |
Tom,
I know we’ve told you many, many times but L... and I are sincerely
grateful for this
home that you have built for us. I could write on for a very long time if I
attempted to put
down all of the positive experiences that we had in working with you.
It will be tiring for you to hear this again but we were vehemently
warned by many
people who had recently had the experience of building new homes that by the
end of the
process we would have an extremely negative relationship with the “whatever
builder” we
chose and that we should be prepared for this reality.
As you know our feeling on this, the reality in working with you
could not have proved
further from this dire advice we were given. This may not surprise you when
I consider
your business acumen and ethic but I do not even remember a single disagreement.
I
have to conclude that we either didn’t have one or that the way you practice
business and
the ability you have to put folks at ease makes us forget they ever happen.
The funny thing is I know you don’t need the business, but
I as well as I’m sure anyone
who you’ve ever built a home for would be happy to be a reference for
you at any time.
L..., myself & our home itself will always be an incredibly positive statement
to anyone
who will listen (whether we are asked or not) for Tom DiPlacido.
Tom, we will never forget you or how you treated us and please know
that you are Welcome to this “little piece of heaven” that you have created
for us anytime.
Sincere and many thanks,
J. and L. |

Dear Tom,
I want to thank you very much for the manner in which you
handled the sales of the home to C... and T.... I Know they
were on there premises on a regular basis and they had a thousand
questions for you and I appreciate your patience with them in
answering all their questions. They were very impressed with
you and with your entire operation. Needless to say, they are extremely impressed
with their house.
I personally want to thank you for all that you did for them, including
all the breaks that you gave them and the extras...
Thanks again, Tom.
Very truly yours,
P. |

Dear Tom,
It is difficult to describe in words how happy and pleased J...
and I are with our home. It is everything
we hoped it would be and more. J..., our children and myself are thrilled
to be in this house, in this development and in the town of Wrentham, and you
are a significant part of making that possible. For that we truly thank you.
The attention you gave to ensure the high level of quality to our home while
at the same time meeting the completion date speaks volumes for you as a professional
and as a person.
J... and I had not yet moved into our house at the time of this
year’s Wampanoag block party, but were invited just the sane
and did attend. Ironically, most of the people we met happened to
be our immediate neighbors on Riverside Drive. Without probing, during
the course of our conversations, I was
impressed as to how many people had nothing but complimentary things to say
about the work you had done for them as well as the commitment you’d
shown throughout the process.
J... and I are now part of that group that will have nothing but
positive things to say about you and your organization . Again, thank
you for all you have done for our family.
Very truly yours
M. and J. |

Tom,
The installation went very well! You guys are the best! Mike is a great craftsman...please thank him again for me.
Tom, working with you and your company has always been very easy. You may use me as a referral anytime! I wish we were building another house with you, as it's been a pleasure working with you.
Thanks again!
J. |

Hi Tom
Just wanted to let you know the party Saturday was a great success thanks in part to all your hard work. Thanks for getting it done in time. Everyone raved how beautiful the porch is. We will enjoy it for many years to come. Feel free to use it as a model to show when people are looking for this type of porch.
Thanks again

Dear Tom:
I have been meaning to write this for some time but I kept putting it off. Your crew was at the house today taking care of the one-year punch list and when I came home tonight and saw the job that they did I decided I couldn't put it off any longer.
L. and I have been in this house a year and I have to tell you that everything about the experience of buying this house all the way through today's clean up work on the punch list items has been outstanding. You truly have and understanding of not only how to build a wonderful house but you have also found a way to make what is normally a stressful experience into a very enjoyable one. The service that you and your team have provided since the sale has been wonderful and L. and I couldn't be happier.
I wanted to take a moment to let you know how much we appreciate your professionalism, your commitment to the houses you build, and the outstanding work that your whole team does. We would gladly recommend you to anyone we know. Thanks for everything.
Sincerely, C.C. |

Dear Tom,
We have been meaning to write to thank you for the wonderful job
you and your
Company did building our new home. We’ve been months and we still feel
we’re at a vacation resort!
This was the third new home we have built and as “experienced” new
homebuyers,
we were thoroughly impressed by every aspect of the process of building this
home.
Your initial meetings with us showed care, professionalism, and a commitment
to help us accomplish our goals. Your wonderful suggestions and guidance in
the customized
designs turned out even better than we had expected. The construction process
was
smooth and seamless and you even finished and enclosed the home earlier than
expected!
Our finished home was of high quality and exacting detail and your
prompt service after we moved in was extraordinary. The design of
the open space and surrounding homes is very attractive and should
make Wampanoag Estates a model development that other homebuilders
should hope to emulate.
Thanks again for our wonderful new home we truly love it!
Sincerely,
J., C., A., and C. |

Dear Tom, Jeanie, and everyone at DiPlacido Development,

We also appreciate your flexibility and cooperation.

work.

I wanted to let you know how happy we all are, and to thank you
for our beautiful addition. We are more than thrilled with everything.
Everyone who sees it says how nice it is.
We really appreciate your taking on this project as I know you ran

happy with the results whether large or small.
M... has put in his garage door opener and some shelves. W... is
using one side for a large table she can use for quilting.
