My questions were always a priority to be answered and assistance was always provided when a decision needed to be made. A wonderful group of people, from the owner, to the site manager, to the project manager, to the designer, to the office personnel, etc. We couldn't be happier with our home...beautiful, well thought out, and high-quality. **★★★★★ — Reem Kasm, April 2017** > Here's the thing. Everyone tells you that building a house is extremely stressful. That you should be on top of things because your builder probably won't be. Thankfully, I will never know what that's like because I got to work with the Brush Arbor team. They built our home in Arlington. You can see the photos under Lyon Park. Every member of the team is kind and considerate. They understand that building a home is one of the biggest things you'll ever invest in. They also know good quality and only offer good quality. They are honest and responsive-- which is what you need if you want a low stress experience. If you want to build a home in Northern Virginia, look no further. They are the best. **★★★★★ — The Metal Peddler, Aug. 2016** > We have worked with Brush Arbor Home Construction on several projects over the past couple of years, providing them with custom build metal and copper range hoods. This particular job was a talllight gray range hood for this stunning kitchen. > > All of our dealings with Brush Arbor have been highly professional. They provide us with the hood specs in a timely manner and set off our work in beautifully designed quality kitchens. We look forward to working with the team again! **★★★★★ — Cochran's Lumber & Millwork, May 2016** > We would absolutely recommend Brush Arbor Homes for a quality custom built home! We have had the privilege of working with them on several projects as a hardwood flooring provider and their level of detail throughout each home always surpasses industry standards. Every house is uniquely and beautifully designed for both comfort and style. **★★★★★ — rexintuit, Nov. 2015** > Everyone on the Brush Arbor team - from the owner and office staff to field personnel and vendors - go to great lengths to ensure client satisfaction. Online home construction software is used to track communication, log selections, and allow documents to be accessed from anywhere in the world - a priceless tool. Each home they build features beautiful trim work, gorgeous hardwoods and thoughtful floor plans to suit today's family needs. Employing the best technology, hands-on craftsmanship and superb finishes; they leave me wishing I'd known of them when I built my home. **★★★★★ — kmjeff88, Nov. 2015** > Brush Arbor Homes is such a top notch customer driven company. This was my first experience building a house, and they made it as stress free as it could be. When having a hard time deciding on my finishes, they were right there to help out and make recommendations. The communication all around was fantastic. I was impressed on how smooth the whole process went and would only use Brush Arbor if I were to build again. **★★★★★ — Mike Hubbard, Nov. 2015** > Brush Arbor is a top notch Northern Virginia builder. The team they have put together works well to produce a finished product that would satisfy the most discerning home owner. **★★★★★ — bkelect, Nov. 2015** > We provide the electrical wiring of the home. We also install all the lighting fixtures. Jonathan Smith is an Honest and caring owner. He take pride in completing a great product for his clients. Brush Arbor is very conscious of each detail of each phase of the project. **★★★★★ — neerap, April 2014** > The Washington Metro area is swarming with builders but NONE have the professionalism, expertise, attention to detail, skills and craftsmanship that Brush Arbor offers. Buliding a house is an extremely stressful process and yet when we building our house through Brush Arbor - all of our friends commented on how calm and relaxed we were. That's because Brush Arbor provided us with exceptional customer service, guidance and quality of work. Jonathan, the owner, is man of great integrity and has put together a dedicated, knowledgable and hard working team. I know it's cliche - but Brush ARbor built us our dream house. Jonathan is NOT about building houses quickly and cheaply and moving on. He truly cares about each house, the quality, the craftsmanship and he is committed to each customer and making sure things get done right. Brush Arbor started out as our builder but I know consider the whole staff dear friends. **★★★★★ — jlgibbsjl, Feb. 2014** > Experience, Integrity, Honesty, Reliability, Accountability > All the things you want, need and expect to have in the person you have entrusted your new/remodel home construction project to. This is Brush Arbor Homes, founded by Jonathan Smith. > > If we had it to do all over again, Brush Arbor is the only company we would use. > Ron and Joanne Patton **★★★★★ — Stewart Beckwith, Jan. 2014** > Brush Arbor owner Jonathan Smith built our home for a competitive price and did an excellent, high quality job. This is especially significant because ours is a complex, highly customized home. Not only were we very happy at the conclusion of the project, but we remain so because our home has stood the test of time. In addition, Jonathan was honest and professional in all of our dealings--most importantly, when he said he would do something or agreed to certain terms, he would always follow through. In fact, Jonathan occasionally checks in with us to answer a question we might have or to ensure that we continue to remain happy with our home. Thank you, Brush Arbor, for being integral to helping us make our dreams come true. ## Selected projects - [Modern Build on the Potomac River](https://www.houzz.com/hznb/projects/modern-build-on-the-potomac-river-pj-vj~5467763) - Location: McLean, VA - Photos: 25 - Description: On one of McLean’s signature streets on the Potomac River, this modern home has every luxury with over 6100 square feet of living space.
