When it became clear that it was time to do something with my mother-in-law's old 1950's home, Craftbuilt, Inc. very quickly became the clear path forward. From my first call with Aaron, he understood our vision and confidently proclaimed that they had done many renovations on homes like ours, including being able to describe to me the layout of the "Ranchburger" that we had before even seeing it.
In our case the home had an in-law suite added in the 80s complete with a second kitchen and we wanted to unify the space into a single home. After an initial walk through and discussion of small, medium

I wish there was a negative star rating I could give this company. Here is a summary of the many issues we had:
1) Delays: Our kitchen remodeling project was scheduled to finish in 3 weeks. Craftbuilt started work at the end of November 2020 and finally finished in June 2021 (7 months later!). We take responsibility for some of the delay, however, there were weeks when nobody showed up to work.
2) Cut Corners: Craftbuilt failed to follow the specifications of our independent structural engineer and did not install the required structural support elements. Luckily, this was discovered during a

We had a 30-year-old deck that desperately needed replacement. A family member who is a well-known landscape architect provided plans for a new deck of several elevations which was somewhat technical and complicated. Our thought was with plans in hand estimates would be easy for contactors to provide and we could compare apples to apples. Not so. The range of prices was considerable and several contractors completely ignored the plans. We heard of CraftBuilt through friends and after visiting the website thought our job might be too small. Again, not so. CraftBuilt was a breath of fresh air. Aaron

Aaron McGinnis at Craftbuilt was referred to us by our realtor. She had heard really good things about the work that he'd done in City of Atlanta, she liked his style and thought his personality would align well with ours. Turns out, she was 100% correct. We met with Aaron for the first time in April 2017 and that kicked off our journey to building the house that we're madly in love with today. Aaron's process is as clear and thorough as he is. Our first few meetings were very conceptual in nature. We talked through what we thought we wanted & he used that to define a high level design. After
