From concept to creation, built right the first time.

There's no honest single number, and any builder who gives you one over the phone is guessing. On a mountain lot the site can drive the budget as hard as the house: driveway length and grade, rock, septic versus sewer, well versus tap fees, foundation type, retaining walls and drainage.

What we'll do instead is walk your lot, look at your plans, and give you a real itemized number for your project — not a per-square-foot average borrowed from somewhere flat.

Most fully custom homes run roughly 10–16 months from breaking ground to move-in, with design and permitting ahead of that. Steep sites, long driveways, custom millwork and long-lead materials push it out.

You'll get a schedule in writing before we start, and you'll hear from us when something moves — not three weeks later.

No — and honestly, before you buy is the best time to call. We'll walk a property with you while you're still under contract and tell you what it will cost to build on it, so a cheap lot doesn't turn into an expensive surprise.

Yes. Bring your architect's drawings, a stock plan you bought online, or a folder of screenshots. We build from your plans, work alongside your architect or designer, or bring in design partners if you're starting from nothing.

Yes. Hillside foundations, retaining and site walls, long or steep driveways, drainage and erosion control, engineered decks — that's normal work here, not an exception we charge extra to think about.

Allowances get set with real numbers you can actually build to, rather than low placeholders that quietly blow up at selection time. If something needs to change mid-build, it's priced and approved in writing first. The number you approve is the number you pay.

Twenty-five-plus years in construction. That matters most in the parts of a build you never see — knowing which sites drain badly, which subs actually show up, and what a plan is going to cost to frame before anyone picks up a pencil.

Yes. WNC General Construction, LLC holds North Carolina general contractor license #102338 and carries liability insurance and workers' compensation coverage.
