Red Door recently completed a house for our son in McColl, S.C. and it turned out beautifully. Lisa was very helpful and we could not have had a better building supervisor. Jeff is one of the nicest young men we have ever encountered and very helpful and attentive during the whole process. We have received so many compliments on our son's house. If you are considering building a home, it would be a mistake not to talk to Red Door first. Red Door recently completed a house for our son in McColl, S.C. and it turned out beautifully.

They were extremely efficient and professional. It was the cleanest job site I have ever seen. They were extremely efficient and professional. It was the cleanest job site I have ever seen.

Matt and his team in Garner have gone above and beyond to help get our house built. There were a few bumps along the way but they were quickly fixed. There were many nights where Matt and/or our builder would be on the phone with us after hours to make sure we got what we needed. This kind of customer service and accountability is incredibly rare to find, especially in the construction industry. We have been in our house for around 2 months now and couldn't be happier. Their were a few minor issues after we moved in, but once again Matt and his team came through and had them resolved in a week or 2. If you're looking to build a new house, you can't ask for better people to work with. Red... Matt and his team in Garner have gone above and beyond to help get our house built.
