**★★★★★ — Michelle Dray, June 2017**

> My husband and I have been working with Matt E and his team for over a year starting with the sales cycle through build and now being a homeowner of one of his homes.  The entire experience has been positive and we are thrilled with the final product.  This is our 4th home, 2nd build and know our preferences and are meticulous in our asks and expert high quality and workmanship.  They delivered.  Throughout the process we encountered a few hickups, as expected with building a home, but the management of the project and the attention we were given was incredible.  The project manager, Matt C, is extremely professional and goes beyond the call of duty.  These guys are in a category of their own and we highly recommend them if you are considering building a home in Charlotte.  My husband and I spent just under a year exploring builders and we are thrilled we decided to go with Grandfather Builders.

**Comment from Grandfather Homes:**

> Thank you so much Michelle! We're so proud of how your home turned out. It was a pleasure working with you.

**★★★★★ — Jenni Rahrig, March 2017**

> We hired Grandfather Homes to build our dream home, and I would absolutely recommend them for new construction or renovation.  Professional, considerate, highly skilled trades, amazing project management.  Even our new neighbors commented on how Grandfather kept the lot and street clean!  We are so pleased with our new Grandfather Home!

**Comment from Grandfather Homes:**

> Thank you, Jenni! It was a pleasure to work with you as well.

**★★★★★ — christieszymanski, Feb. 2017**

> We hired Grandfather Homes to build a custom home- project was finished April 2016. Start to finish was smooth as possible. We loved the "family" atmosphere at Grandfather and found everyone pleasant to work with. Our concerns were their concerns, they listened to our wants and needs and made our dreams a reality. We love our home and are so pleased with the quality and little extra touches that Grandfather adds. Highly recommended this company for your next home!

**Comment from Grandfather Homes:**

> Thank you so much for your kind words! We put so much heart into this home and are so happy that your family loves it as much as we do.

**★★★★★ — Tammy Coulter Design, June 2016**

> We at Tammy Coulter Design cannot say enough good things about Grandfather Homes.  We have worked on a variety of projects with them over the last ten years and every single home has been a pleasure.  It is always an interesting mix of building a soundly constructed house, keeping it in budget and making it extraordinary all at the same time.

**★★★★★ — Grandfather Renovations, LLC, June 2016**

> From the first time I recognized a Grandfather Homes kitchen displayed on the cover of a Charlotte magazine to a family member who said "You really need to look into that company. They are building at a higher level in Charlotte," my first instincts that you were a premiere, luxury, custom home builder have been validated. From company President Matt Ewers down through his exceptionally well trained and skilled office and project management staff, it is integrity and dedication to your clients that sets you apart. It is a privilege and a blessing to join the team as part of your expansion into premiere home renovations. I look forward to our new venture together!

**★★★★★ — marthagwilliams, June 2016**

> Grandfather Homes built us the most incredible home with gorgeous finishings and impeccable details. They were helpful every step of the way and were so knowledgeable on all aspects of home building. Matt, Billy, Tammi, Ken, and Jessica, thank you for the house of our dreams!!!

**Comment from Grandfather Homes:**

> Thank you for the kind review, Martha! It was a pleasure working with you.

**★★★★★ — Diel Design and Interiors, March 2016**

> We first worked with Grandfather Homes on their Colville Road home for an "Evening of Luxury" event in February 2016. It was a pleasure working with their team; they were always professional and helpful during the process. The most exciting part of working with Grandfather Homes was showcasing our work in such a beautiful home- every little detail was thought out and all of the finishes were top of the line.
