This was my first home building project(at least as the buyer) and I had no idea what I was doing. JD had patience and honest advice throughout the process. There were a couple of delays throughout the process that were not JD's fault, but he still did his best to make it right. I gave him 3 parameters in the beginning (square, plumb and level) and checked the work when no one was looking. I was always pleased to find the level bubble centered between the lines every time.
And everything was always as square as efficient construction can be. Keith and his team were always professional and courteous and were never condescending when I had questions about the process. I intentionally delayed this review for several months so that there was time for the little things that pop up after project completion to shake out. This way I could accurately review "service after the sale".
We did find one issue (again not Mountain Brook's fault) and Keith and Butch came out and fixed it with no issue and in a timely manner. They even cleaned up after themselves. Thanks JD and team for our forever home!

I had a great experience working with Mountain Brook homes building my house, highly recommend if you're looking for a high quality, affordable product with a great team! JD really cares and went the extra mile to make sure I was happy through the whole process, even more impressive since my build was happening through the pandemic! I so appreciate his expertise, thorough and straightforward communication, and dedication to a job well done. I couldn't be happier with the final product! Thanks JD and crew!

JD helped us navigate through a modular cabin project that turned out to be much more complicated than we had anticipated. He always seemed to know the right person or have a creative idea to help get around each new obstacle. He also worked with us with humor and understanding keeping our best interests in mind. I can't recommend him highly enough as a contractor.

We recently finished a two story cottage on a mountainside near Asheville that was built from the ground up by J.D. Wallace of Mountainbrook Homes. All work was done professionally with craftsmanship and quality materials and J.D. kept the costs at the quoted level. He worked well with us when we wanted to make some last minute changes and we would definitely recommend him.

My wife and I first met with JD when we began planning our modular Vacation/Rental home in Black Mountain, NC. Deciding to work with JD was the best choice we could possibly have made. We live 800 miles from Black Mountain, and could not be there for most of the work. JD handled every step of the build, and stayed in touch with us with daily phone calls. We worked from one of their stock designs and made modifications, which turned it into a unique home.
I was able to be there to see the crane move the modular's pieces into place and watch the house appear in one day. JD's very professional crew then started working on the details. They finished the construction of the second floor and the porch. We couldn't be happier with our beautiful home. JD was very attentive, and it was a pleasure to work with him. Thanks JD, Gerry and Donna

JD @ Mountain Brook Homes is not only a general contractor, he is an artist! While remodeling our 1920's Asheville bungalow, he came up with creative solutions and ideas that have beautifully blended the old and the new. He re-purposed materials and was always respectful of the budget. He was accessible, reliable, and was great about maintaining communication. He actually made me feel like his most important client! We have more projects in the near future and I look forward to working with JD on all of them!

After an extensive Internet search in 2009 we found Mountain Brook Homes. They built our original home and though we were several states away JD kept us up on progress. When it came time to add an addition there was no choice but JD and his crews. I highly recommend mountain Brook Homes for your building needs.
