Building a home had always been a dream of mine. The process is overwhelming and knowing where to begin had us stressed. When i connected with J.E Evans Construction they were able to not only effectively educate us on the entire process, they answered EVERY. SINGLE. QUESTION. We had a dream home in our mind and Mike Evans was able to take our words, translate it, render it, and make suggestions that we didn't even know we would want. I can not recommend this company enough. There is def an app for that. We downloaded an app that connected us to the entire process, all the plans, invoices, and

J.E Evans Construction did a very large project for us at Wrightsville Beach. We did a renovation and large addition to a 45 year old beach house. They did a great job and communicated through a construction app to keep us updated weekly. The company stood by us during an issue with the initial plans and quickly switched gears and came up with an even better plan. We are thrilled with the final product.

From our first inquiry and contact through to completion, Mike, the owner, and his company have been there for us every step of the way.
Mike has been attentive both to us, his customers, and to every detail involved in creating out Guest Cottage. He has been gracious and willing to work with us through changes and consistently kept the costs fair and even below market costs. Mike went way above and beyond by showing up during the last torrential rains to assure me drainage would work and not endanger our little home. If you want a company that cares about you as much as the build, JE Evans is

Mike and his crew did an excellent job on our addition. The craftsmanship was/is top notch and our project acceptance punch list was tiny-due to Mike's great work. Our addition has now been through 2 hurricanes with zero issues! I definitely reccomend JE Evans Construction.
