Exterior Ideas when home building


Asheville Custom Home Builders works closely with each client to make sure that every detail is balanced and to their liking. This client actually chose to put rock in the lower gable and hardiplank siding (dark red) in the high gable. New color combinations are used many times to give smaller homes like this the "Arts & Crafts" look and feel.

Hiring an Educated Home Builder in Asheville NC


General Contractors come in such a wide variety. Some have just begun, some have been doing it for many years, and some have mastered the trade. I guess when you are looking for a Home Builder, you do not want a builder that doesn't have it together. I am talking about prices, figures, documentation, communication, service, good attitude, and so much more. I talk to people in Asheville all of the time that say "It would have been great, but I picked the wrong builder". Or "I wish I would of met you guys a few years ago". This is what happens when the builder is not responsible, not organized, not updated on technology, and cares more about their profit than gaining a satisfied client.


Many times the builder does not lead the homeowner in the options they need to choose and the questions they need to ask, so when something goes wrong on the project, there is no place to look back and say "this is what we figured". Then the builder comes to you with a $10k additional charge because it was "not figured" or "unseen" as some of them say. Ridiculous, but it happens all of the time. Let us take you step by step and answer any questions you may have about home building in Asheville North Carolina. www.AshevilleCustomHomeBuilders.com

Asheville Site Updates Coming Soon!

As Asheville Home Builders, we watch the market and act accordingly. Most development and future plans had been put on hold until this market picked back up, the President was chosen, and these Holidays pass. People are nervous about the economy. Planting seeds is what my Asheville team did while the market was slow.

Getting ready to do some updates for our Asheville Custom Home Builders website. We are connecting this blog to us so we can have some Western North Carolina construction interaction. We are also adding a "Resources" page with some of the top links in Asheville. Our "Contact" form will now have a land profile questionairre that we will use to find you a piece of property in Buncombe or the surrounding Counties.

We are very excited about the "market to come" here in Asheville NC. So many people have contacted us with the "waiting to see what happens" attitude. We expect very great things to come in the near future. Your wait is over! Seriously consider Asheville if you are looking to relocate.

Rainy days in Asheville NC

It is going on three days of rain today in Asheville and Weaverville, and do you know what a builder does when it rains? Stresses! Of course we have learned to never believe the weather. We go out to get the job completed and if we paid attention to every rain scare, nothing would ever get done. We do not watch the clouds, we build homes! Normally we have a few projects at different stages, so when it does rain, we usually refocus on a job that is already "dried in" and has inside work.

Successful Home Building In Asheville North Carolina

Building things is a practice that many people learn during their childhood. Just like everything else, if you have to learn the "building trade" later in life, it is more difficult. Some refer to contractors as "mechanically inclined", but it is more like committed experience. Builders are trained, not born. But, when you are born into a "construction family" or household, you learn little things from just being around it as a youth.

For example, one of our owners was recruited by his Mother and Aunt when he was about 11 years old to do full demolition on two seperate homes and then restore both places. It was a 2 year process and the experience taught him something he will never forget. He learned the plan, the process, and the completion of a very successful construction project. Successful projects do not come easy. Successful projects require great communication. Successful projects come by working with a successful team. This is where we come in. http://www.ashevillecustomhomebuilders.com/

Western North Carolina Real Estate, Asheville

Western North Carolina (WNC) real estate is thriving, contrary to the national housing slump. And it’s no wonder, when you consider the benefits of living near Asheville, which is neighbored by Weaverville to the North and Hendersonville to the South.

Asheville thrives with music, festivals, shopping, dining and nightlife. Weaverville is a small town, with laid-back restaurants and unique shops. Historic Hendersonville is just 22 miles away and is rich with culture and annual festivals.

Just a few benefits of living near WNC are: the pleasant year-round weather, the variety of festivals and cultural events, the superb local art, a population below 80, 000 in Asheville, and the outdoor activities.

Beautiful, spacious subdivisions surround the Asheville area. No where you look to build or buy, you’ll find yourself surrounded by picturesque scenery. It’s long been a favorite vacation destination. Why not make it your hometown?
