"Bill and Billy were very professional and efficient with the projects I had at my home. They built me and 2 car garage and deck off the back of my house. Pricing was very fair and the quality of their work was top notch. They're family owned and operated. I highly recommend them as a general contractor and builder for any home projects."

"Outstanding work, what ever you need done they were able to complete it at a timely manner. I needed a safe and affordable deck and they did just that. Plus Scott and his team went out of their way to over build to make sure we were safe but also make it aesthetically pleasing. Anything that came along they kept us informed and make sure we were educated to make the right decisions. Very pleased with their work and can’t wait to call them back to do more home Reno. You won’t be disappointed."

"Without a significant hitch, and the minor ones that will ALWAYS crop up in a project this size were handled quickly, professionally, and to my satisfaction. Haines began fairly quickly after bid accepted, and worked tirelessly to arrange for demolition and major carpentry, building his own external stairs to window so as to avoid bringing construction material/debris through house. Timing of carpentry, roofing, hvac, electrical, plumbing, painting, drywall, cabinets/countertops choice and installation, and flooring was well-coordinated with no down-time. Very happy with finished project, and will be using Haines on smaller master bath remodel."

"Marc was very professional and responded to my calls promptly. He took the time to visit my home to assess my needs and make good recommendations for me to feel safe in my home. Tory was the technician who was assigned to do the work at my home. He arrived on a Saturday afternoon and worked very hard until the rain came. He offered an even better suggestion, as one of the lights was about 30 feet in the air, and might be tough to pick up the motion. He offered to come back on his day off to finish the job. Tory came back on his day off, , worked very hard, did an excellent job and was extremely professional. The lights are great and work perfectly. I feel so much safer. He is an excellent electrician. He was very neat and cleaned up after himself. As if that wasn't enough he was so personable and nice! I will certainly use MI Electric again, but I will specifically request Tory. He was fantastic!!!!

"We cannot say enough good things about Blake and Mark (co-owners/partners at Asa Stanford) who we discovered on Angie's List. Blake came to our first meeting on time and prepared with print-outs (and his own notes) of the architectural design we had provided for a 400 sq ft den and office addition. It was clear he had put some thought into our project before he arrived. He spent about an hour reviewing the project with us, looking over our home, going into the attic, answering our questions, etc. He was able to provide an estimate for the project with our plans. Blake was very patient, detailed and thorough - and we knew before he left our driveway we wanted to hire him. Not only are Mark and Blake just really nice guys, they are really good at what they do. They worked seamlessly with our designer to review and finalize the building plans. Communication was excellent from beginning to end. Blake and Mark answered the phone almost every time we called (even if it was 4 PM on a Friday) and would answer texts and emails promptly. Blake constantly kept us informed of the schedule, which subs to expect, etc. Overall, we were happy with the work of the subs, and pleased with the oversight Mark and Blake had on their work. Mark himself is a very talented carpenter and nearly single handedly built the frame of the addition by himself - even our neighbors were pretty shocked watching him at work. (And for the record, as we learned from our conversations with Mark, he is equally as humble as he is skilled.) A few times, we asked about adding some things that weren't in our original contract, and Blake would give us his thoughts, research the cost and get back to us very quickly with an exact cost. There were some hiccups along the way (as there are with any project), but we never worried about them because we trusted Blake and Mark to take care of them, whatever they were. These guys really are the best. Overall, the project finished a few weeks early and came in right around the original cost estimation. We are so pleased with the finished result. It is even better than we anticipated, and we appreciate having full confidence in the materials and craftsmanship. We have already recommended Asa Stanford to neighbors and would hire them again in an instant."

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

Watch for cracked concrete slabs or exterior masonry after winter freeze-thaw cycles end in late February. Lancaster experiences heavy rainfall and expanding clay soils that stress foundations over time. Hurricane season remnants also expose vulnerabilities in roofing and siding. Schedule your home building projects during the milder spring or fall months before the extreme summer heat and humidity arrive.

Helpful?

Yes, completing permitted home building projects significantly boosts your resale appeal. Buyers relocating to Lancaster expect modern finishes and updated systems. Focus on high-return improvements like crawl space encapsulation, roof replacements, and HVAC system upgrades to combat the regional heat. Energy efficiency improvements, such as new windows and insulation, also resonate strongly with buyers looking to reduce high summer utility bills.

Helpful?

Watch out for contractors who lack a valid state license or proper liability insurance. Avoid any professional who suggests skipping the mandatory local building permit process or promises unusually fast timelines. A trustworthy professional provides a written, itemized scope of work. They also address specific SC challenges, including expansive clay soils, termite inspections, and private septic system requirements for your home building project.

Helpful?

Foundation repairs and crawl space encapsulation directly impact HVAC ductwork and plumbing lines routed beneath your floors. Upgrading your roofing or insulation changes your HVAC load to combat the extreme Lancaster summer heat, requiring system rebalancing. Additionally, adding square footage to rural properties forces a capacity review of your septic system. Always coordinate home building with your pest control provider.

Helpful?

Professionals closely evaluate your soil conditions and lot grading, as the expansive clay soils in SC require careful foundation engineering and drainage planning. Crawl spaces receive heavy scrutiny for moisture intrusion, wood rot, and termite damage. Roof framing is assessed for storm resilience. Finally, rural properties undergo strict evaluations for well and septic system capacity before any home building begins.
