Benham Builders

Cornelius, NC Home Builders

Oct 20, 2014

“Benham Builders was everything we expected to do a turnkey renovation of our kitchen. They referred us to a structural engineer who provided excellent drawings and engineered the new footings and beams that would be necessary to remove two walls and create one large kitchen/living space. The renovation involved re-configuring the entire space, moving a bathroom and all plumbing, gas, hvac and central vacuum lines, moving windows which entailed brick/stucco work, as well as moving the entire electrical panel and installing/refinishing hardwood floors throughout. Every subcontractor brought in by Benham Builders was extremely professional, knowledgeable and prompt; in many cases they called ahead to be sure it was a convenient time to come! Since I am a seasoned DIY-er, what I appreciated most about Benham Builders was they permitted me to do the work I felt I could handle, such as taking out the tile floor, installing the backsplash and contracting for the new cabinets, counter tops and appliances with suppliers I had selected. Jim Benham is an easy-going and incredibly knowledgeable contractor. He was always available in person or by phone to answer questions that came up or help us through a problem. We are absolutely delighted with the new space and would recommend Jim and his team in a heartbeat!”

Patrick Joseph Distinctive Homes

Cornelius, NC Home Builders

Dec 21, 2015

“My wife and I purchased a home on Lake Norman 14 years ago knowing that one day we would turn it into something special. Over the course of owning the home we did a few little projects like remodeled the pool, resurfaced the docks, added a screen porch, built an outdoor kitchen and bar, etc. When we finally got serious about doing our inside remodel we called Mike Shalvoy with Patrick Joseph Destinctive Homes. I meet Mike through a mutual friend that used Mike and his team to build their house. After meeting with Mike a couple times we felt like he understood our vision, goals and budget. Seven months later we couldn't be more happy with the results. We completely gutted the inside of our home down to the studs. We took out walls to open the floor plan, raised ceilings and created a huge kitchen and entertaining area. All new water lines, electrical, insulation, sheet rock, doors and the list goes on. We have a completely new home on the inside that looks amazing.”

4G Design Build

Cornelius, NC Home Builders

Apr 28, 2014

“4G took our wooded lot and made it into more than we ever expected! After moving into the Mooresville, NC area and trying to find that "perfect house" we were at a loss. It wasn't until buying a lot in Falls Cove and meeting with Sam Gandy that we started to think that finally we may have found our answer! We moved into our new home on April 11, 2014 and finally we have our "perfect house". 4G is extremely professional but also make you feel like part of their extended family. They never leave questions or concerns unanswered. They made sure I got what I wanted and always made sure I was happy with every phase of the construction. They made our part very simple it was in no way overwhelming and even let me send them pictures from Pintrest and other websites when I had ideas! Sam and or Quinton were on my job site daily to make sure the progression of my house was where it needed to be. I love my home and I am thankful everyday that I get to live here. I am 1000% happy that we were fortunate enough to get 4G to build our home. It was a fun experience getting to build this house and would always recommend them to any family or friend looking to build their "perfect house".”

“Hubert Whitlock has done three different projects at my home in the last fifteen years and their work is excellent with top quality workmanship which is why I continue to use them. This last project was the smallest of the three. In each case they have excelled in taking care of the details and alleviating stress for the homeowner.”

Alair Homes Charlotte

Cornelius, NC Home Builders

Jun 26, 2012

“We worked with Advanced Renovations on a complicated kitchen remodel, that demanded the talents and skill set that can only be found in a company as professional as Advanced Renovations. Duane Johns and Roger Ketchum of Advanced Renovations made this complicated project a breeze for the homeowners and the subcontractors alike. This is no easy task, and signifies the level of professionalism that is not easily found. Their knowledge of their profession is remarkable. I would not only enjoy working with them in the future, but I would hire them myself. Being in the business I get to see it all, but never have I seen a company that goes to the level that Advanced Renovations will. That go the distance and then some. Bravo Advanced Renovations!”

Grainda Builders, Inc.

Cornelius, NC Home Builders

Aug 24, 2016

“We are in the middle of 3 projects using Grainda Builders. So far, they are extremely professional and communicative. David is helping us replace our entire 45 foot front porch with Wolf tongue and groove flooring, replacing skinny round columns with larger square columns and custom railing. In addition, David is in charge of re building a brick retaining wall along our driveway that has collapsed. Finally, we will re-pour sections of our driveway to prevent water from entering our garage. I know Grainda builds beautiful homes but they also do great renovation work.”
