Not only have I built a house with Bottle inc, but I've seen a lot of their work and been in a lot of their work and it's top notch, bar none. If you're looking to build in the Lake Lure area, you won't find a better builder.

Jun 28, 2020 Report
Spoke to John Bittle, Sr. for about 30 minutes, describing my construction needs regarding my interest in building a cabin on my lot in lake Lure. He told me that he had stepped back from the day-to-day construction; his new role was liaising, and that his son was running the show now. And after his telling me that costs were likely going to be ~$200/ sq ft, and that they were book led for over 6 months. I said that might work for my goal of a 2000 sq ft. build, and that I had patience so could wait. So he promised hed get his son to walk my lot and give me a call thereafter. But no call
