It is the mission of our business to listen to our clients, build their vision and exceed their expectations. Clear, consistent and ongoing communication is the most important tool we have to create the comfort level our clients deserve — throughout the entire homebuilding process. We are here to realize their dreams, within their budget and timeline. Our clients can count on us to be there from the initial groundbreaking to the very last lick of paint.
Even after nearly 25 years as a residential builder, my passion for the construction process has not changed. For me, it’s fun every day. It is a great honor to build beautiful homes where future generations will create lasting memories. I give the building process everything I have: I use and share my many years of experience, and it allows me to provide thoughtful building and design solutions.
The satisfaction of seeing a happy family move into their home is powerful stuff. I really enjoy getting to know our clients during the building process, and to help them translate their visions into the perfect home. I am honored that our peers respect and recognize the quality of our work. Though Lady Street Builders is known for its beautiful Craftsman and traditional homes both custom and spec, I also enjoy the challenge of building in a variety of other styles. We build in some of the most sought-after neighborhoods in the area.

Backyard Bliss
Signs of spring are cropping up everywhere here in South Carolina. Flowers are starting to bloom – daffodils, crocuses, and forsythia splash their colors across the drab landscape. Peeper frogs are emerging to sing in their mates while the red maples start their budding. Smells of petrichor pervade as the warmer rains displace the cooler ground temperatures stimulating our olfactory senses. To bird-lovers, hummingbirds are often their favorite sign that spring has sprung and producing a backyard bliss for their enjoyment is very important.
