We have come to them to build many of our unique custom homes and have been pleased with the end result every time. Whatever challenge arises during construction, they have helped us find a solution and work through the problem. We are always happy to work with Morgan-Keefe and look forward to working with them in the future.

**★★★★★ — Historical Concepts, Jan. 2015**

> Morgan-Keefe Builders has one of the most professional teams we have worked with in the Southeast, delivering a high level of craftsmanship at all phases of construction, from foundation through trim and finishes. Their integrity and dedication to serving the client is apparent at every step of the process.  It is a real pleasure for us at Historical Concepts to work with them!

> Mr Morgan is working with me in selecting a plan suitable for our acreage and a plan that meets our requirements and budget. He is very knowledgable and we look forward to the building process with him hopefully within the next year

**★★★★★ — Anthemion Architecture LLC, July 2014**

> I have worked with Morgan-Keefe Builders on several custom homes on Lake Keowee in South Carolina. In all cases they were very professional, creative, and handled construction in an organized manner. Their ability to keep the projects on track, maintain the budget, and communicate effectively made it a pleasurable experience for our clients. I look forward to working with them again soon.

**★★★★★ — THE ARCHITECTURAL STUDIO, Feb. 2014**

> The Morgan/Keefe team have been partners with my firm on several projects over the last few years.  My firm and my clients are always treated with honesty, care and quality.  I have searched for a Contractor that I can count on in every situation to go the extra mile and Morgan/Keefe is that Contractor.  We look forward to many more projects together all over the Western North Carolina area!

**★★★★★ — Crossville Tile & Stone of Asheville, Aug. 2013**

> At Crossville Tile & Stone we consider ourselves lucky to work with a Morgan-Keefe client.  Every project we have been a part of has been unique and impressive.  It is always a pleasure to work with a company that always has their client's best interest in mind and strives for perfection.  Morgan-Keefe builds a superior home and we are proud to be a part of their projects.

**★★★★★ — Kessick Wine Storage Systems, Feb. 2013**

> Morgan-Keefe Builders ranks as one of the top custom builder we do business with. The high level of design and the spectacular architecture of the homes they build, makes it a joy to be partnered with such a professional company. I am amazed every time I walk on to one of their job sites of how clean and organized they manage to keep a busy construction site. Their timely work schedules and professional job supervisors enable us to give our best efforts and to have a great deal of pride in the work we do for Morgan-Keefe. They demand a great deal of craftsmanship from their subs and are rewarded with quality work that meets their high expectations.

**★★★★★ — Morgan Creek Cabinet Company, Feb. 2013**

> Morgan Creek Cabinet Company has had the pleasure to work with Morgan-Keefe Builders for more than a dozen years.  During that time we have come to admire how Malcolm Morgan and his company become a true partner with their homeowners, offering the knowledge and experience this high-achieving organization has acquired over many years.  Many builders do a great presentation but few truly know how to build a great house with as much grace as the talented builders of Morgan-Keefe.   The results speak for themselves.   What I particularly like about them is how they bring such competence and a strict accounting to their work and yet manage to do it with a personal, friendly approach.  Homeowners and subcontractors like ourselves all get wrapped up in it and we all feel like we are working to make something special for people we have come to know and care about.   It makes the experience richer for us all.
