J. Francis Builders

Borrowing from our corporate world experience, when looking for a builder for our Lake Keowee house we put together a list of criteria and we essentially interviewed everyone with a website within 50 miles. We followed up with additional phone calls and decided to hire J Francis Builders. Our project just completed, we are convinced we hired the right team! J Francis Builders isn’t the only firm offering complete services, from an architect to help one frame their dream, pun intended, all the way to final landscaping… but the team at J Francis, in our view, is unparalleled at their approach to working with their customers. It’s not only the attention to every detail, from the seemingly minor things to the overall picture and budget, it’s the way we felt treated - as if we were part of the family. Our project may be a wonderfully done chapter, a legacy that will likely outlive us, but the bond we developed is a memorable experience we are grateful emerged in our lives. A heartfelt thank you to all of you at J Francis Builders! Well done!

Jimmy and his team took on our new custom home part way through the project. His team was incredibly flexible and thorough in completing our home. The entire J Francis team rallied around our project by listening to our needs and building exactly what we wanted. They demanded quality work from their subcontractors which was driven by active site construction management that oversaw the work. They always kept us up to date on the status of our home and continued to listen as the build progressed to be sure they met our expectations. We are extremely happy with our home, and the relationship we developed with J Francis Builders.

Jimmy and his team are professionals. From start to finish you feel like part of the family. The process is never smooth when building a new house, but this was pretty close. Jesse the project manager was on top of the details and was always attentive. With any issues we worked through them with no difficulty. Highly recommend this team.

From the very start our build was exceptional. Jimmy and his entire staff made us feel that our custom home was their most important build. From the architectural design, throughout the entire selection process everything was on time and professional. All of the suppliers and sub contractors were superior, and the house was built in only 7 months! The quality, workmanship and attention to detail was superb. Best experience, cannot recommend higher. We love our dream home!

We cannot recommend J. Francis Builders more! The entire team was very professional from start to finish, and we are truly going to miss working with them and speaking with them so often. They made the home building process enjoyable for us and kept us on budget and ahead of schedule. At the end of the project, we were given a book with all the information we could ever need on our home including selections, warranty information, subcontractor numbers, etc. This is a top-notch company - you won't regret hiring J. Francis!

J. Francis Builders helped us realize our dream of building a custom home. The entire team at J. Francis was very helpful and thorough throughout the entire process from design to final turnover. We were concerned about building our own custom home after the stories from friends and family. However, going with J. Francis Builders ensured a smooth process and we couldn't be more happier with our new home.

My husband and I have built several homes together. Our last home was built by JImmy Francis Builders. By far, it was the best building experience we've ever had. Jimmy and his amazing staff are friendly, responsive and dedicated to building a top-quality home. Through regularly scheduled meetings, he kept us aware of the progress and gave us ample notice for decisions that needed to be made along the way. There were no surprise costs and our home was completed ahead of schedule. These things alone are reason enough to recommend Jimmy Francis. However, we feel that his greatest asset is his dedication to his client's satisfaction. From start to finish, Jimmy was there throughout the entire process ensuring that we got exactly what we wanted in our new home. He went above and beyond to make us happy and we truly are.

Building a new home is potentially a very trying experience. This was our 3rd home to build and one of the best experiences we have ever encountered. The team at J. Francis Builders became our extended family. They listened, they understood what we wanted and most importantly they viewed every dollar spent as if it was their own. We worked together as a team in every aspect of the project, using organized project plans and tools to keep us all informed. They also worked very hard to assure we met our original time table. Toward the end of the process when we found out we would be unable to extend our temporary living arrangements, they found a way to get additional resources and got the home in shape so we could move in earlier than planned. The final product is a beautiful high-quality home exactly as we anticipated. Truly, a great experience with a great team.
