NC Custom Builder, LLC operates under an intermediate builder license in North Carolina, which authorizes us to undertake a diverse range of residential and commercial projects. This license places a statutory cap of $1,500,000 on contracted projects.

I'm Craig Carter, the owner of NC Custom Builder, LLC, and I serve as the qualifier for the state building license.

### Reviews

**★★★★★ — jstrange004, Dec. 2020**

> We remodeled our master bath. Craig helped us every step of the way. He created a custom design that allowed us to get the most value from our investment. His project management kept the project on time and on budget. His trades were great to work with and produced high quality work.

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> Thank you. I hope you are enjoying the fresh space!

**★★★★★ — Greg Nance, Dec. 2019**

> Kathy and I were ecstatic over the results of our remodeled kitchen.  A lot went on during the process but Craig kept us well informed so we never had any surprises.  He was the consummate professional, very knowledgeable, and was focused on quality work.  Of the few things that didn't meet his standards (which we would never have known), he immediately brought them to our attention and had it corrected.  He came in under budget, and even though a few days longer, that was due to his attention to detail.   If we remodel any other parts of the house he will be the first we call.  We highly recommend Alair Homes of Greensboro.

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> I am so happy you are able to enjoy your new kitchen for the holidays and I hope you continue to enjoy it for the years ahead. You and Kathy were wonderful clients. Thank you for the opportunity.

**★★★★★ — Marc Miller, June 2019**

> We are very please with the work Craig and his Alair team did for us on our kitchen remodel.  It was a big deal for us - customers cabinets, hard wood floors, quartz countertops and new appliances.  But Craig was patient and transparent the whole time.  He is very customer focused, which makes us go back to him time after time.  We highly recommend Craig and Alair.

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> Thank you Marc. For the record, the photos shown don't show the project 100% complete as we did have the receptacles complete and covered after tile backsplash was installed. I am just noting this observation for others who might question this detail.  So glad you are enjoying the space.

**★★★★★ — Dave Dobson, June 2019**

> Craig and his team were wonderful to work with in our bathroom remodel. Everything was clear and well-planned. Most of it was budgeted ahead of time. The unknowns were laid out and estimated ahead of time, and there were no surprises during the process. The project took the time they said it would, at the cost they said it would, with respect for our living space and wishes. This was the best experience I've had with any contractor ever.

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> Glad to hear your experience was positive. We have been enjoying the changes.

**★★★★★ — Bruce Thede, Dec. 2018**

> The work on our project involved extensive remodeling of an existing old farm house plus addition of a large family room and two car garage with second floor storage room.  Also included was new siding and new metal roof for the existing house.  The project was a challenge because of the irregular sizes, angles and construction of the older portion of the house.  The house has a very rustic style with all wood floors, raw wood paneling and large wood open beams in several rooms.  The contractor worked diligently to find sources of materials to match these styles in the new additions.  The actual costs mapped closely to the very detailed initial budget presented to us at the start of the project.  We made requests for modifications as the project progressed.  The contractor presented us with options that would fit the overall design, the relative costs and timelines.  All changes to the project costs were thoroughly researched, discussed and agreed so we received no surprises.  The contactor or his assistant were present on the site daily to direct the work.  Alair Homes did a superior job on the work and in making this large project totally painless.

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> Thank you for allowing us to be part of the renovation. It was wonderful to work and get to know you.

**★★★★★ — White Oak Residential Design, Dec. 2018**

> I have had the pleasure of working with Craig Carter and Alair Homes on several of my projects. Craig is a very conscientious person and relates well with his clients. I have found that clients also appreciate the thorough detail of Alair's pre-construction process. Alair Homes Greensboro is an excellent choice for custom home, addition, and renovation projects.

**★★★★★ — HU-349946769, Dec. 2018**

> Alair renovated our master bathroom, and we could not be happier with our beautiful new shower.  Craig and his team were great to work with and managed the project effectively and efficiently.

**★★★★★ — betsy williamson, Dec. 2018**

> craig carter did a wonderful job building my screen porch. every time something is done to the porch he checks to make sure it is done correctly.  he is hands on. and he made it easy to pick out building materials. i love my porch!

**Comment from NC Custom Builder:**

> Thank you for the kind comments. I am so glad you have been able to enjoy it.

**★★★★★ — Fran Sembert, Aug. 2017**

> Craig was great to work with. The process from beginning to end was professional, priced well, and all of the subcontractors were great. The project is scoped out at the very beginning and the budget is put together. The homeowner approves each piece of the budget electronically. As pricing is firmed up with suppliers, the budget is replaced with actual numbers so you know what it's costing every step of the way. Craig's attention to detail was amazing. He was there everyday throughout the project. We didn't have to settle for just any subcontractor either. If one came in higher than Craig thought was appropriate, he brought in others to bid on the project. That was especially nice because in the grand scheme of things our project was relatively small and not all subs want to take small jobs. I was never uncomfortable with any of the workers being in my house while I was at work. I highly recommend Alair Homes Greensboro and Craig Carter!

**★★★★★ — Bill Hurt, Jan. 2017**

> Craig and his crew recently remodeled our 1/2 bathroom and the work is beautiful!  Everyone paid attention to detail and went the extra mile to make sure we were pleased with their work.  Anna was instrumental in helping us pick out color, fixtures, and pulling everything together.  Craig went above and beyond the expected to keep our project on track.  We strongly recommend Craig and Alair homes for your remodel work. They will not let you down!

**★★★★★ — mknellis, Nov. 2015**

> Craig and his team did a fantastic job remodeling our Kitchen and Half Bath. The options he presented were well thought out and presented with our budget in mind. We opted to reface our cabinets as the boxes were still in good shape. Many of our neighbors did not believe the cabinets were refaced the craftsmanship was that good. Our next project will be a Master Bedroom/Master Bath remodel. Revolution will be the first call we make.

**★★★★★ — Liz K, Sept. 2015**

> Craig Carter and his team at Revolution - Fine Kitchens + Baths did a fantastic job remodeling our large kitchen.  His design professional Anna met with us to plan the details of the project and took us to various suppliers to select the materials: quartz countertops, tile back splash, Adorne under cabinet lighting system, high quality cherry cabinets and other features.  The team gutted our old kitchen and installed a beautiful new one.  The product quality and workmanship was outstanding.
>
> We would highly recommend Revolution - Fine Kitchens + Baths and plan to use them again in a few years to remodel our master bathroom!

The dark wood cabinet, with marble like quartz top, created the contrast needed for an elegant, upscale design. Crystal hardware with metal accents are a precious finishing touch.
