**★★★★★ — HU-302051, July 2016**

> Jake and his team were outstanding. We completely gutted our 1,200-square-foot Sea Pines villa and had Jake do a complete makeover that would allow us to move to the island permanently. He spent time with us to understand our goals and helped us strategize the best ways to use the space we had. He helped us select custom built-ins, gave us a kitchen that rivals those in homes three times the size, and showed us how to maximize every inch of our villa. We needed to move in by October 31, which gave Jake a tight seven-week schedule, but he made sure our renovated home was ready. When there were problems with subcontractors, Jake's team stayed on top of the details to ensure everything was taken care of and completed according to expectations. Jake was not only our contractor, but also became a good friend in the process. I highly recommend Jake and Hammerhead Custom Builders.

**★★★★★ — Mary Ellen Witman, July 2016**

> Jake was a pleasure to work with.  His work was top quality and my whole house renovation was completed on time and on budget.. Jake has a great knowledge of new and innovative designs.  I am planning another addition and Jake will be doing the work..  I would highly recommend Hammerhead Custom Builders.

**Comment from Hammerhead Custom Builders:**

> Thanks for the kind words!  We can't wait to work with you again.

**★★★★★ — HU-568118, July 2016**

> I highly recommend Hammerhead.  I first hired Jake and his team for a commercial project, since this time, I have recommended him for both additional work at the resort as well as to friends for their residential projects. He stays in constant contact with his customers and ensures the highest quality of work.   I have always been thanked for the recommendation, and I will continue to work with them in the future.

**★★★★★ — Katherine Capps, July 2016**

> This is my second project with Hammerhead,  both projects were completed with excellent results and in a timely fashion. I would highly recommend .

**Comment from Hammerhead Custom Builders:**

> Thanks for your continued faith in our team.  These before and after picture show the grand transformation.

**★★★★★ — garyb9, March 2016**

> Hammerhead was amazing, under budget and ahead of schedule with the final result nothing but great.  Kitchen remodel and then some.

**★★★★★ — casachele, Dec. 2015**

> Ours was a big job, 4 bathrooms (adding a previously non-existant shower in one), the kitchen, moving walls, redoing flooring throughout the house, but Jake and Tyler and team kept their cool and were beyond patient with changing visions and bottom line budgets.
> Great problem solvers to boot.

  - Description: Renovation. My client had a modest-sized home of 1,100 square feet. At our initial meeting my client expressed how she wished to have a more modern and open floor plan. The existing galley kitchen was tight and had dated plywood cabinets. Within the original kitchen were the water heater, laundry, and pantry. With smaller homes, it is even more of a challenge to make every inch usable and practical. The home had a screen porch running three quarters the length of the house. This rear section of…

## Community Q&A

**Q: Beautiful Kitchen** *(in Photo Questions)*

What material is on the countertops?  Thank you.

A: Ellen,
The counters are a granite named Fantasy Brown. What makes them so unique is that instead of being a typical polished finished, they have a leather finish. The counters are slightly rough. The leather finish matched with the pattern makes them hide any scratches which works great for this part-time rental property!
Thanks for your interest,
Hammerhead Custom Builders

**Q: Floors** *(in Photo Questions)*

Can you share what kind of wood floor this is?  And brand/color?  How has it held up with sand/humidity?

A: The flooring is a 1/2" x 5" Pecan.  The company is Forest Accents, the Pacific line in Mocha.  Yes, this house is only one row away from ocean front and the flooring has held up beautifully.

**Q: wall color** *(in Photo Questions)*

what color are the walls?

A: The wall color is Sherwin Williams SW6219 Rain.  Click here for more info!
