Featured Reviews for New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville

Smith & Robertson, Inc.
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 21, 2013
“The Smith & Robertson team designed and built a custom house for us at Wintergreen VA. We started in March, 2012 and finished in January, 2013. We had a great experience designing and building, and are very pleased with the final product. Glenn and Ron are easy to work with and have a can-do attitude. The design was exactly what we wanted. They were able to put our dream home on paper and make it work. They were very creative on where to save money on the project, but also how to include some of the perks we really wanted. The sub-contractors they hired were professional and, for the most part, on time. The building supplies that S & R insisted on using were top-notch. Our "green rating", a big focus for S & R, is a big plus to our new home. We were able to stay within budget. We would highly recommend this wonderful team for design/build.”
Warner Custom Homes
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 7, 2018
“We had a great experience with Warner Custom Homes from start to finish. David understood and adhered to our budget. He worked with us and got the house we wanted within our budget. We worked with two other contractors that never got within our budget. Budget was the deciding factor in selecting Warner. Warner delivered the house on schedule. David was available throughout the process and easy to work with. Save for a few punch list items the house has been trouble free. We would highly recommend Warner Custom Homes.”

Integrity Custom Builders LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 26, 2016
“Integrity Custom Builders Manny Fisher, Owner 1866-C E Market St, PMB 303 Harrisonburg, VA 22801 December 21, 2015 Dear Manny: We would like to take this time to thank you and your company for doing a fantastic job on the renovations of our retirement home here in the valley. It’s good to know that there are companies like yours that go the extra distance to satisfy a customer. Many companies would do only what the plan calls for and nothing more. Again, it takes a special company to look past the blue prints and make the necessary changes to help benefit the customer. Also the word “Integrity” means nothing when everything is running perfectly. It is only when a challenge occurs, as they always do on construction projects, it is at that point “Integrity” has its highest value. I can honestly say that “Integrity” is not just the name of your company, but it’s the way you do business. Additionally, we found that your whole team is focused on details and do excellent work, however Mahlon and Tim possess the specific knowledge, ability and moral character that made us feel comfortable enough to allow them in our house all day even when nobody was there. Based on the amazingly detailed work and the ability to transform my vision into reality, I would recommend Integrity Custom Builders, LLC for any construction related venture that someone is about to undertake.”
Peak Builders LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMarch 7, 2017
“Peak Builders has built 3 custom homes for me! With Matt and his crew, you will get exactly what you want, from design concept to finish. They are professional, knowledgeable, and do quality work. Plus, Matt is easy to get along with, which is a plus considering you will be communicating regularly over an 8-9 month period.”
Blue Ridge Custom Homes LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 29, 2013
“I have a 60's ranch house with a small master closet. The job was a tough one because of the building materials used. Instead of trying to take down and then replicate the plaster of the old closet. Kevin Bruggard (the contractor) came up with the idea to build a "room" around the old closet. The old opening is there with 3 hanging bars. The new room has deep and long shelving on each side reaching the ceiling. New 6' sliding doors were added with molding to match the rest of the room. Instead of presenting the most expensive idea; Kevin put together a modest and creative approach that solved my storage needs and then some! Very professional, all work was on time and as expected. I would recommend Blue Ridge and Kevin in particular. Great personality and very customer oriented.”
Southern Development Homes
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsApril 26, 2018
“I can’t say enough wonderful things about Working with Southern Development. The experience of building with them was delightful. How often you can say THAT when you are building a home? From our first meeting, until the final walk through Southern Development Homes went above and beyond to make sure we got what we wanted and in our budget!! There were no surprises. Even the process of picking out finishings was fun and seamless at the Design Center. They know what they are doing, and you get that vibe when you are around any team member that they are one big family. Big shout out to Nancy and the whole team at SDH…thanks for making building a house fun!”
MacMillan-Pace, LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Charlottesville
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 20, 2015
“Thank goodness we hired MacMillan-Pace. THEY CAN DO EVERYTHING! We wanted our dream home, they built it. Their crews were fantastic. Started house in December and we were in our beautiful home by Thanksgiving. The team helped us with everything from picking out faucets, designing cabinets, finding granite, and picking out paint colors. We wanted a different fireplace, they made it for us. Wanted geothermal, got it. Wanted a complete SMART house, they did it. Their incredible carpenter even made us a bowl from a tree on property as a welcome home gift. If I had to build another house...would definitely use MacMillan-Pace. They are our building family.”
