From families we've built for
What a MIR build feels like.
“Our family considered building a new home for several years. As a busy family with children's sports and work commitments, it was overwhelming to find time. We had nearly given up, when a family friend referred us to MIR Homes. Branka and Edmir spent time getting to know our family and needs. They researched lots, designed a floor plan, picked out everything inside the house, met with our children to plan their rooms, and created a new family home. The process could not have been easier and the result was incredible. Our family has been in our beautiful new home for more than a year. Branka and Edmir still check in to make sure everything is going well. They are simply amazing!”
Natasha Rogers
New custom build
“We recently hired Mir homes to remodel our house after 20+ years in our house and we could not be happier with the results. From the design phase to the final walk through Branka and Edmir were very professional, transparent, and skilled. We had a vision for our house that required extensive craftsmanship, custom work, and difficult finish work but Branka and Edmir were able to meet all our demands throughout the entire project. They kept the job site clean, were always there, and were always looking out for us. We highly recommend Mir homes for any home remodel or custom home work.”

Whole-home remodel
“MIR Homes did an excellent job on our home's interior renovation. Branka and Edmir were so easy to work with and understanding to our needs. Yet their expert design and construction abilities are right up there, maybe better, with the top designers and builders we have used for several of our past homes. We highly recommend them to anyone wanting an exciting, affordable new look for their home and created by such nice people. We would definitely use them for our future home and commercial business projects.”
