We recently also visited the blue Splietker and I can only agree with the words here. We also had a very good conversation there. In the end, I inquired about the two companies. Due to conflicts, a mason separated and apparently co-founded the other company and is now the namesake. For us, the whole thing has a bitter aftertaste, because a house we liked was built by Splietker (blue). However, the pictures of it were also displayed by the Red one and we were never corrected in our assumption that the house was not planned and built by that company. It is probably true that the mason worked on it and had the right to take the pictures over. Hence, a certain bitter aftertaste, especially regarding the red Splietker. Looking at the costs, the Blue one is, as already described here, quite a bit more expensive. We have not yet received a "proper" cost estimate in list form from Kelle, but so far only oral statements about how much a house might cost.
