VPC Builders, LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Watauga County
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 8, 2013
“VPC did an excellent job on our home exterior remodeling project. We followed design suggestions that were made and were very pleased at the outcome. They completed the project on time and left the site clean. We would recommend them to anyone.”
Ingenuity, LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Watauga County
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 27, 2016
“Pat Weber, with Ingenuity, LLC, has been a colleague of mine for several years. Pat is extremely thorough in his projects and builds a home of exceptional quality and value. He has a fine attention to detail, and the subcontractors that he chooses to work with are held to those same standards. He built 4 Periwinkle Ct. in a subdivision that I developed, and having seen that home, as well as others he has built, I would highly recommend his work as a contractor. A home purchased from Ingenuity, LLC will be an excellent investment for many years to come.”

The materials, construction, and finishes are all high quality at a super reasonable price. Highly recommended. I'll update when we're done in July or so.”
4 Forty Four
New & Custom Home Builders in Watauga County
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJuly 26, 2013
“Working with 4 Forty Four has been one of the best professional relationships we've ever experienced. Kevin and his team strive for excellence in everything they do. They carefully listen to the client and truly care about every detail of the project, including fostering a great relationship with us. Kevin assigned us a spectacular project manager who is in touch with us every day to let us know where we are in the process, keeping us informed and at ease. They also provide weekly reports on our budget/expenses keeping us on track and within budget. Everyone warned us about the stress that comes with building our own home. I really believe with the right builder, a team like 4 Forty Four, stress can be minimal or avoided. The building process has been incredibly enjoyable thanks to 4 Forty Four. Also, their work is excellent. Visit their website to see the high quality craftsmanship they provide. www.4fortyfour.com”

Green Life Construction and Restoration
New & Custom Home Builders in Watauga County
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 7, 2020
“One of a kind builder! My wife and I had our hearts set on a new home that would truly reflect mountain style living. Green Life builders came through on all accounts. Simply put, they are the only homebuilder in this area that incorporates authentic post and beam construction with a conventionally built, energy efficient building envelope. No one else can deliver the feeling you get when you walk in and see the massive ceiling timbers and support beams that define the interior spaces. It’s the real deal. Mitch and his team were easy to work with, and accommodated our specific wants during the build. He also worked with us on finding ways to minimize the financial impact of add-ons during the process. Finally, we appreciated the authentic touches Green Life included as standard, like the use of real stone, inside and out and forged wrought iron balusters in our loft. If you want a solid house with that real mountain feel, Green Life is the way to go!”
Mountain Empire Homes
New & Custom Home Builders in Watauga County
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 12, 2017
“We designed our own home and we had a challenging property on which to build. We talked to Berry Home Center in Abingdon for a recommendation on builders and decided on Tommy Sproles of Mountain Empire Homes and boy are we glad we did. Tommy and his business partner and life partner Julie have been incredible. These folks understand the importance of keeping the customer up to speed on budgets and costs etc. They have bent over backwards to help us build our custom, dream home and help us keep within budget. This is the second time we have built and these folks are head and shoulders above what we experienced before and we are getting what we want. Nothing seems impossible with these folks. We love them and recommend them highly.”
