From start to finish, the process was unbelievably smooth and that’s a true reflection of the kind of builder and person Todd is. > > His attention to detail and commitment to quality are second to none. Every corner, every finish, every small decision was handled with such care and precision. You can tell he takes real pride in his work, and it shows in every inch of our home. > > Equally impressive is the incredible team he has working alongside him. John Michael, Trevor and their trusted list of subcontractors were also professional, skilled, and reliable. Not only did they meet every deadline — they actually finished ahead of schedule, which still amazes us! > > One of the things we appreciated most about Todd was how carefully he managed the budget throughout the entire build. He was transparent, organized, and always proactive in making sure everything stayed within the agreed range—no surprises, just honest communication and thoughtful planning every step of the way. > > Beyond the craftsmanship and organization, what truly stands out is the relationship we built throughout the process. Todd has become a friend, and it’s clear that he genuinely cares about the people he builds for. > > We’re so thankful for the home he created for our family and would highly recommend Reed Brothers to anyone looking to build. If you want a stress-free experience, impeccable quality, and a builder you can trust completely, look no further. **★★★★ — HU-595931953, Dec. 2024** > Reid Brothers helped us design and build our house on an extremely steep slope. We chose them because of their experience and architectural expertise in building homes similar to ours. We did not want to have any future issues with foundations cracking like we’ve seen from some other builders. The entire process went very smoothly and their attention to detail was greatly appreciated. We love our house and there’s very little that we would have done differently. My only suggestion is that Todd and John hire a design consultant to help clients throughout the decision-making process. I found that the hardest to manage confidently. We would highly recommend them to anyone looking to have them build you a home and would be happy to to show you around hours too. **★★★★★ — Vickie and David Haynes, Dec. 2024** > Reed Brothers built our beautiful home! We had an issue with the lot before we decided to build and for two years we were unable to get anyone to resolve the problem. We asked Reed Brothers to evaluate the situation and they said, no problem, it can be done. We have never been happier! The house is so well constructed and we love the Reed Brothers. John Williams is awesome to work with as well. **★★★★★ — Michelle Shively, Dec. 2024** > We couldn’t be happier with the experience we had working with Reed Brothers to build our new home on the lake. From the initial consultation and design to the final walkthrough, the entire process was smooth and professional. > > The team at Reed Brothers displayed exceptional attention to detail and craftsmanship. They took the time to understand our vision for our dream home and made it a reality. The quality of materials used and the construction exceeded our expectations. We were kept well-informed throughout every stage of the project, and they were always open to our ideas and feedback. If we had questions during the build, Todd and John Michael were very responsive. > > What stood out most was the builder’s dedication to staying on schedule and on budget. Despite the challenges that inevitably arise in construction, especially post 2020, they managed to stay on track, and we moved into our new home when promised. > > We are so grateful for the hard work, dedication, and professionalism shown by the Reed Brother's team. We couldn’t recommend them highly enough to anyone looking to build their dream home. **★★★★★ — Amanda Swanson, Dec. 2024** > I would definitely recommend Reed Brothers for your new home build. Todd and John were great to work with! Todd listened to our ideas and helped us craft a home that has truly been a source of joy and relaxation for us and our family. Their professionalism and selection of quality workmanship, contractors, and materials really made all the difference. We have so many compliments on our home! We are so grateful to have had the opportunity to work with Todd on our vision for a home that we hope to enjoy for many years to come. **★★★★★ — Jeff and Nikki Hicks, Oct. 2023** > We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Reed Brothers! This was our first fully custom home and we learned so much from this experience. From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were amazing! They were always one step ahead and kept us informed every step of the way. Todd did a fantastic job with our floor plan to maximize our view of Lake Lanier while still providing beautiful curb appeal. Ron was responsive to any questions or concerns about our construction process and very considerate to my (many!) requests. John was our go-to man while on site and we always felt he had full control of all situations during our build. They have a great lineup of sub-contractors that show true loyalty to their projects. We love our new home and we are extremely grateful for their expertise and commitment to customer satisfaction. We highly recommend Reed Brothers to anyone looking to build their dream home. **★★★★ — Larry and Gail Horne, Nov. 2022** > We had a great experience building our home with the Reed Brothers. Our home is beautiful Todd did a great job with the architectural design. Ron was great with organizing all that we had to pick out for the house. John has been very helpful as a superintendent checking on all items that had to be finished for closing. Very satisfied with our home. Be glad to show my house to any future client of the Reed Brothers. Larry and Gail Horne **★★★★★ — bradeeburrell, Nov. 2021** > Reed Brothers are the complete package. Their attention to detail is terrific. I think their estimating process is refreshing and so important. Their subcontractors help to ensure a great quality product. Our build went relatively smooth despite the supply issues caused by the pandemic. **★★★★★ — Tracey Settlage, REALTOR, Nov. 2021** > I am so happy we chose to work with the Reed Brothers. We have been in our new home for a few months now so can really appreciate all the details and careful craftsmanship that went into the process. Todd worked patiently with us to design our home on a challenging lake lot. And Ron took the design and executed every detail. I really appreciated their expertise and guidance throughout the process-big and small details: from placement of windows for maximum views, custom built ins to maximize space, unique swinging doors, layout and even just placement of light switches. Their contractors were all top notch professionals with the same level of care and eye for detail. > I would highly recommend the Reed Brothers! **★★★★★ — Mary Taylor, Nov. 2020** > Wonderful folks to work with—honest, thoughtful and thorough. Todd, Ron, and John Michael were all very professional and helpful. Todd’s design was thoughtful and just right for me. Everyone has been very available when I have had questions and clear about costs and budget. I felt very good building with Reed Brothers, and there were no unpleasant surprises. We had a few hiccups because of building during COVID and some shortages, but it all worked out for the best. If there was a problem, it was addressed. In fact, Reed Brothers completed my home project two months ahead of time! I am so happy with my home! It is beautiful and well made! I would definitely recommend this team. They stand by their work. **★★★★★ — pkbrewer4, Oct. 2019** > From beginning to end and even after the job is finished, Todd and Ron are professional and extremely qualified. They made the building process stress-free! Todd is an excellent designer, and Ron is diligent and great to work with on the job site. This is the 3rd home we have built, and the experience was by far superior to previous projects. We have a beautiful quality home on the lake. Thank you, Reed Brothers!!! **★★★★★ — Elizabeth Waters, Sept. 2019** > My family has just completed the building process with Todd and Ron Reed. We had a wonderful experience. They were very accessible for any questions or concerns that surfaced during the design and then the building process. We now are enjoying our beautiful and well built home. would recommend the Reed Brothers to anyone thinking of building a custom home. ## Selected projects - [Crooked Creek Ranch](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/crooked-creek-ranch-pj-vj~7709258) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 73 - [Wooded Escape](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/wooded-escape-pj-vj~7716892) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 86 - [East Meets West](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/east-meets-west-pj-vj~7642398) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 72 - [Rock-n-Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/rock-n-lake-pj-vj~7835857) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 80 - [Enchanted Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/enchanted-lake-pj-vj~7852108) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 98 - [Sunrise Landing](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunrise-landing-pj-vj~7511085) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 53 - [The Lake Escape](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-lake-escape-pj-vj~7250793) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 84 - [3 Stories Down](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/3-stories-down-pj-vj~7559160) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 46 - [The Heritage Project](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-heritage-project-pj-vj~7098487) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 85 - [Modern Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-lake-pj-vj~7086898) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 43 - [The Cove](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/the-cove-pj-vj~6912496) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 62 - [Lago Vistas](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/lago-vistas-pj-vj~7718776) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 72 - [South Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/south-lake-pj-vj~5874705) - Location: Flowery Branch, GA - Photos: 77 - [Sunset Cottage](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunset-cottage-pj-vj~6316007) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 90 - [HOME Magazine feature September 2019](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/home-magazine-feature-september-2019-pj-vj~5904221) - Location: Not specified - Photos: 6 - [Mountain Homestead](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/mountain-homestead-pj-vj~6907469) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 58 - [Ray of Sunshine](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/ray-of-sunshine-pj-vj~6610120) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 70 - [Cliffside Cove](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/cliffside-cove-pj-vj~7780523) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 66 - [Sunset Lake](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/sunset-lake-pj-vj~7342750) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 79 - [Big Sky](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/big-sky-pj-vj~7086924) - Location: Gainesville, GA - Photos: 85 [See all 85 projects](https://www.houzz.com/professionals/home-builders/reed-brothers-design-and-build-pfvwus-pf~688391559) ## Community Q&A **Q: black chandelier with beads** *(in Photo Questions)* Beautiful home & chandelier !!
