Ling and Pamela Graves did an amazing job with our full-home renovation! The photo of the kitchen hood doesn't reflect the 'final product' (pre-backsplash), but what they did to get this installed was nothing short of remarkable! They were a delight to work with and I can't recommend them highly enough!

Graves Construction did an extensive renovation project for us that turned out amazing. Trey Graves managed the project and was great to work with. Knowledgeable and on top of things. Pamela Graves added a lot of design expertise to the project, helping pick color schemes and working with a tile store to design beautiful bathrooms. We couldnt be happier with the outcome of this project.

I previously had given this company a bad review, but the company had a similar name (Grace construction). This company is not the one that worked in my home. I apologize for the previous review
