““He (Artie Smethers) treats your home as if he is building his own”…this was the phrase we heard repeatedly from Keystone Building Group references when we were doing our homework on local builders. Every inquiry we made regarding work ethic, professionalism and quality standards were met with high praise. We were not disappointed. We built our home in NC while still living out of state. We were nervous not being onsite to monitor progress and make sure all the details were making it into our dream home. Our project could not have been in better hands. Artie provided us with excellent communication and clarity with almost daily updates and pictures of the job site. He proactively managed any issues he saw along the way, kept us informed and made recommendations (based on his experience) that we were able to incorporate into our build. We were glad we did. We have no regrets or things ‘we wish we would’ve done’ because Artie talked us through scenarios and we were able to make decisions that have been beneficial and useful to everyday life. The job site was always immaculate (as we were told by amazed neighbors). Their team of subcontractors were always respectful and professional to us and our property. Angie Smethers helped us navigate the financials and change requests as well as interfacing with the financial institution; making the payment reconciliation process flow easily throughout the build. She was responsive, patient and very easy to work with. Building a new home is a huge undertaking - they made it an exciting and very positive experience. I would trust them to build all my future homes.”

“As a contractor, it is important to me to work with a designer who thinks about things that I don't. Steve is this kind of designer. He is a great team player, creative, and knowledgeable. He listens carefully to my customers and brainstorms ideas such that we eventually land on a great design that my customers love and that I can build. Steve has a great balance between right brained and left brained thinking which I appreciate. I highly recommend him!”

“Carolina Classic is literally the best contractor I have ever worked with, and I have been working with contractors for 2 decades. Evan and his team do impeccable work, the quality, timeline, and budget were A+. This was a major, complicated project and the team was outstanding. Highest recommendation possible and I am so proud of the results!”
