Featured Reviews for New & Custom Home Builders in Sylva

Sullivan Custom Homes, LLC
New & Custom Home Builders in Sylva
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsFebruary 14, 2023
“They did a tremendous job with the remodeling of our townhouse! Kitchen, living room, dining room and 2 bathrooms! Also opened up an enclosed stairwell and in the kitchen removed a couple of walls to open it up to the living room! Kept me updated on everything as the project progressed and sent pictures! Really liked the personal phone call when a problem was encountered so we could discuss the situation and then determine the best solution! It was really nice to have someone who designed our vision of what we talked about and made it come to life, while I was over 500 miles away! I would highly recommend this contractor for your work, be it remodel or new construction! We are pleased and Thankful for the work that he did for us!”

Timber Creek Construction
New & Custom Home Builders in Sylva
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsJanuary 6, 2020
“We were searching for a home when we moved back to Asheville, and happened to stumble on a house that Kevin and Timber Creek were about to complete construction on. Everything worked out perfectly and we were able to purchase the house and we are so glad we did! The house has been a wonderful home for us. There are so many details that they thought of and so much custom work which makes our home one of a kind! They really thought of everything! 4 years later and we still get so many compliments on how well built the house is and how much attention was paid to the details. We couldn’t be happier and Kevin has been very helpful in answering any questions we have had, even to this day!”
Barber Homes
New & Custom Home Builders in Sylva
Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsNovember 7, 2017
“Bill and his crew where great to work with and always available when I needed to communicate with them. My job required more repair work that originally anticipated but Barber Homes replaced all the rotten wood so I will never have to worry about later issues. They made suggestions on my bath and living room remodel that where right in line with what I wanted and the finished product looks fantastic.”

Average rating: 5 out of 5 starsMay 3, 2017
“It was great working with Richard - he has unbounded enthusiasm for creating environmentally healthy homes which use as little on-grid energy as possible. His creative ideas regarding passive solar heating meshed right in with my less-educated desires. The end result is an Energy Star certified home with passive solar heating and active solar water heating .... and it looks good too!!!!”
