What our Clients say

Dear Norman & Yates,

My partners & I, as well as our colleagues & staff from Novant-NHMRC, could not be more pleased with your firm’s management of our medical office building major remodeling project at 1988B S. 16th St. You delivered on your promise of “on time & on budget,” a rarity in the world of construction, which we appreciate greatly. Competence was evident in the workmanship, communication was frequent and clear, and overall professionalism was top notch. While the sub-contractors all did quality work, we’d like to single out John Mayton’s general supervision of the project as superb.

Please feel free to use us as a reference for future projects. Perhaps we may even work together again?!

Many Thanks & Kindest Regards,
Pat

I have designed and built over ten dental office spaces and two buildings over the past ten years. During those projects, I have worked with various contractors. I enjoy being very hands-on in the design and building process and I believe in high-quality work and attention to detail. I have very high standards and I expect open communication and adherence to timelines.

I can say without hesitation, that Chamblis-Rabil has been the best organization to work with. They are very thorough and pay attention to detail. They update you on a weekly basis with detailed schedules, timelines and photos of the site. They are responsive, day or night, to my emails and texts. They believe in the highest level of quality and craftsmanship and they communicate effectively and in a timely manner. As the adage goes, you get what you pay for! I will continue to use them as I grow my business and highly recommend them!

We were referred to Chambliss and Rabil for our new office by Patterson Dental. From the start, the process was seamless. Chris and his team were nothing but professional and accountable for every step of the way. They took care of everything we requested and even made suggestions that were necessary to make the project stress-free.

Chris was in direct contact the entire process and found a great architect and professional contractors that delivered an unbelievable product. Throughout the construction time frame, if any changes were needed, he was there to make that happen. They really took what I wanted and delivered in every way. Their product speaks for itself. We were also in a time crunch, and the project managers, Dennis and Jordan, finished the office ahead of schedule and under budget, which is extremely rare in this industry. Weekly reports were sent out which is a huge benefit to helping us see the overall timeline of the build-out.

I can not say enough about the professionalism Chambliss and Rabil showed throughout the entire process. I would highly recommend this team if you are looking to build a new office. Thanks again for all you guys did for us.

I cannot say enough how highly I regard and recommend Chambliss & Rabil and Chris Dougherty.  This was our second time building an office and the customer service and communication were outstanding.  When we first met Chris he was unassuming, professional, and friendly.  The level of customer service was outstanding.  We always felt Chambliss & Rabil had our best interest at heart.  Chris was easily accessible and responsive.  His weekly emails, pictures, and any changes that needed to be made were prompt.  No concern was too little.

We were moving from one location to another and so the level of stress transiting our office was a major concern.  The time line needed to be met and Chris made it happen.  Chris selected a site manager that would fit us the best and he helped us at every step.  Chris’s input was not limited to quality of construction but esthetics, design, and cost analysis.

I cannot say enough how grateful we were to have someone like Chris and his team taking care of us.  Anyone that chooses to work with Chambliss & Rabil will be getting the best construction team but also a lifelong relationship to their commitment to service and care.

My recommendation of Chambliss & Rabil and Chris Dougherty cannot come more highly. When I made the decision to open a start-up pediatric dental practice, it was an overwhelming task to say the least. On top of the stress associated with building and opening a dental practice, I also started this project living in another state. I was very concerned about my inability to be present and follow the progress. Chris was very accessible during the entire project and was excellent in his communication. I also received weekly emails that included updates of progress and photos. This made my distance from the project for almost the entire process easy to manage and also helped alleviate my concerns.

In addition to the exceptional communication during the project, I was also extremely satisfied with the timeline of construction and the budget. I was provided with a timeline for construction and the project ran on time from start to finish. I was very pleased to have my office open on the date that I had intended when the project started. Chris and the entire team at Chambliss & Rabil were very budget minded during the construction. Chris provided me with options that allowed me to maximize my budget without compromising the esthetic and design of the office. The attention to detail and standard of exceptional work was apparent during the entire project.

Chambliss & Rabil did an exceptional job and created an office that is above and beyond what I had envisioned. I am very grateful to have chosen them as the contractors for this project and would utilize them again without question.

It is without hesitation and obligation that I recommend the contracting services of Chambliss & Rabil. In June of 2018 Chambliss & Rabil completed the ground-up construction of my dental office in Rocky Mount, NC. From start to finish, I could not have been more pleased with how the project turned out. During my initial meetings with Norman Chambliss and Chris Dougherty, they gave me a very realistic expectation of the schedule and cost of the project. Seven months after breaking ground, the building was completed ahead of schedule and at the agreed upon cost.

Chris Dougherty was the lead contractor in charge of my project, and I was most impressed with how accessible he was throughout the project. I could always count on him to provide a rapid response to all of my questions, even outside of business hours. Each week he provided me with a project update that included photos of all completed work.

For me, Chambliss & Rabil simplified what initially seemed like a very daunting process. From the thorough planning phase to the efficient construction schedule, their attention to detail is unmatched. They are preeminent in the field of dental office construction, and they were undoubtedly the best choice for my project.

The purpose of this letter is to articulate my extreme satisfaction with Chris Dougherty and Chambliss & Rabil. This year Chris has completed construction of my fourth dental office.

I have used a different contractor for each of my projects. Chris and his team were by far the best experience that I have had.

Chris and Chambliss and Rabil set themselves apart from my previous experiences in the following ways:

1. They finished ahead of schedule
2. They finished under budget
3. If I had any questions I would get an answer within the hour
4. Weekly detailed progress reports with pictures were emailed to me

Chris and Chambliss and Rabil have exceeded our expectations. The communication, attention to detail, and schedule discipline were second to none. We will be continuing to expand in the area and will only use Chambliss and Rabil for our future contracting needs. If you would like any further details on our experience please feel free to contact us anytime.

It gives me great pleasure to be writing this letter of recommendation for Chambliss & Rabil. During the past 6 months, I have had the pleasure of working side by side with Chris Dougherty and his team with Chambliss & Rabil to build the dental practice I had envisioned.

It took a team with great communication, attention to detail and quality workmanship to complete our office under budget and ahead of schedule. I am beyond pleased with the expertise and professionalism the contractors and subcontractors with Chambliss & Rabil exhibited during my project.With weekly communication highlighting the week’s accomplishments and outlining the upcoming weeks, I always knew were we were in the construction process.

I can confidently say that my partnership with Chambliss & Rabil General Contractors was an integral part in transforming my office vision into reality.

I look forward to working with them again as my practice grows!

I just want to express my extreme gratitude for the exceptional work on my new dental office. I want your whole team and any other clients of yours to know how great you all are. I had never built anything before in my career, so the initial thought was intimidating. From the moment I met Chris Dougherty I knew everything was going to be handled to the highest standard. Chris is organized, thorough and conscientious. He and the entire team definitely work hard to complete a project they are proud of and that will stand up for the long term. There were several instances where Chris came up with improvements on things that I did not even notice myself initially. Most companies would just be satisfied when I stated I was happy, but the Chambliss Rabil team went far beyond that. Chris and his team actually looked for areas to improve to get me the best possible longevity on my office. The project was done to the highest standard and on time.  I was hoping simply to be satisfied with how the dental office turned out, but your team surpassed satisfaction and put me in a place where I absolutely love it. I will always appreciate all of the hard work that your whole team put into my office.

When we, my spouse and I, set out to build our very first dental practice at 4200 square feet, it was a daunting task to find someone who we could count on to fulfill our vision for the practice. There were many unknowns about what the dental construction process would entail, and we needed a contractor with experience, excellent organizational and communication skills, and a strong commitment to meeting our goals. Chris and Jeff, our contractors at Chambliss & Rabil met and exceeded all of our expectations for this project. They worked with us on our time to meet for design and budget planning, where the project was clearly laid out and ideas put forth were addressed. Weekly project updates with photos were given to us, keeping us on track throughout the entire project. Both of us were practicing full-time over one hour away throughout the construction process, and we were always informed immediately if questions or problems arose. Our project did end up finishing on time and the initial budget quoted was maintained accurately with C&R. C&R was there for us every step of the way, and it is with great pleasure that we, Springs Village Dentistry, highly recommend Chambliss & Rabil Contractors to those looking to build an outstanding team to orchestrate their project and entrust their confidence with only the best.

It is with total satisfaction and no obligation that I write this letter of recommendation for Chambliss & Rabil Contractors, Inc. I have had the pleasure of working with them for the past year to design and build my new dental office in northern Raleigh. The work has been exemplary from start to finish and I could not have asked for a more attentive and skillful group.

Chris Dougherty was the lead contractor on my project as he is the head of their Dental Construction Division. He truly took on the vision of my practice as his own and never failed to translate that into a high quality work ethic. Our construction progress was always documented via detailed, weekly email updates. The team was always accessible if questions needed answered or changes needed to be made. It was not uncommon to drive by the site on a weekend and see that work was actively being done. The completion date of the building was just as important to them and that prompt attitude was exhibited throughout the entire process. In every stage of the construction, the site was kept clean and the sub-contractors were always held to the same standard of excellence.

Chambliss & Rabil worked diligently to bring the vision of our new location to life and I would gladly work with them again in the coming years as my practice continues to grow and thrive. The team worked extremely hard and never let the timeliness of the progress compromise the desired result of high quality work. Working with this company has been a fantastic experience and I am truly grateful to have had the opportunity to do so.

It is with great admiration that we write this letter today in recommendation of Chambliss & Rabil Contractors. We had the pleasure of moving into our newly constructed 5500 square foot dental office last week. Our project was completed in eleven months from initial visit to receipt of certificate of occupancy due to the commitment to a strict timeline, strong design-assist method of management, and the utilization of the best subcontractors available.

Our initial meeting with Owner Norman Chambliss , Ill and Vice President Chris Dougherty was the only meeting we needed to confirm that we wanted Chambliss & Rabil Contractors to be our builder for our new dental office. Their presentation was head and shoulders above any presentation we received from any other contractors that we interviewed for our project, and the level of integrity they were able to project allowed us to feel comfortable hiring them.

During the building process we worked closely Mr. Dougherty, he served in the capacity of site manager, and the level of professionalism he provided throughout the project was unmatched. He provided weekly written and visual reports indicating the progress of our project. Regardless of his work schedule he made himself available to tend to any concerns we may have had with the project.

Although we have only been in our new space for a week; we truly believe we made the best decision in hiring Chambliss & Rabil Contractors to supervise the construction of our new office. We unequivocally recommend them for any project, because we are confident that they will supersede your expectations. Please feel free to contact us if you have any further questions about this matter.

The Redfoot Studio Architecture works throughout the Piedmont and Eastern North Carolina with a focus on private commercial projects. The majority of our work is either design-build or design-assist. We have had the opportunity to team with Chambliss & Rabil on multiple design-build and design-assist projects including new ground up buildings, new interior completion projects in existing multi-tenant buildings, and renovation work in both stand-alone buildings and multi-tenant buildings.

Chambliss & Rabil has been a valuable and trusted member of the design and construction team on every project we have done together. They provide substantial and knowledgeable input during the design phase; including accurate and detailed information on the budget impact and constructability of design decisions and well thought out and researched alternative design solutions when applicable. In addition, as potential new options and opportunities arise during the construction phase they continue to work in the Owner’s interest to refine the design for the best possible outcome.

During the construction phase, Chambliss & Rabil has been outstanding in their performance and in how they organize and manage their projects. They do an exemplary job of communicating with all parties involved in the construction process.

Their communication is regular, clear, concise, and timely; ensuring that the potential for misunderstanding and confusion during construction is minimized. Furthermore, they have been extremely dependable in meeting construction schedules and deadlines. The quality and level of work by Chambliss & Rabil and their subcontractors has been nothing less than outstanding.
