Choosing a builder will be the most important decision you make when building your custom home. That is why we are happy to recommend Chris Carson (Carson Homes) to anyone considering building a new home. He is competitively priced and made us feel comfortable and confident with the daunting prospect of constructing our dream home from a set of blue prints. He communicated well and he made numerous suggestions on how to improve the design/livability of the house as we went along. Since we were living in Atlanta during construction this was very helpful to us.

The allowances Chris provides, which make up a significant part of the total, were realistic and provided high quality finishes throughout. We were very happy with his suppliers and subcontractors and were pleased with the finished product. Changes to our plans were made quickly and easily as the building progressed minimizing delays. This was a very important feature for us since we were not local. Ultimately the project came in on time and within a few dollars of our initial budget.

Chris was easy to work with. As questions/changes came along, as they inevitably do, he was responsive and good at finding a cost effective solution. He is very good at value engineering; i.e. making small changes/suggestions that adds real value at a reasonable cost and ultimately provides of a better product.

Most of all he stands behind his work and his word and that says a lot to me about the individual and the company he runs. He’s a “hands on builder” vs. a “production builder” and the type of builder I trust to build “my home” …not just a house.

In the end what more could you want in a builder: he is competitive, honest, and dependable, delivers high quality, and operates with the highest integrity. I’d hire him again.
