They meticulously ensured every detail aligned with my vision, demonstrating their dedication and craftsmanship. I wholeheartedly recommend them and look forward to partnering with them again in the future."

"We had a huge attic that was barely usable for storage since it was too hot in the summer to safely store most items. We hired Richmond Homes to build out both a new guest room and a "clean" storage room in the attic, add flooring and lighting to the rest of the attic and replace the flooring in the existing bonus room to give the whole upstairs a cohesive look. They were able to translate my fuzzy ideas into fabulous new spaces with attention to detail and top quality work. I work recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, high quality contractor."

"Blackline Building was a delight to work with during our major renovation. Sam Matus is a trusted partner and a straight shooter. He had the right people involved in the design, budgeting and construction. His brother Sergio was our project manager and was a delight to work with. Bottom line, we couldn’t have been happier with the finished product. We have received numerous compliments from family and friends. Thanks to Blackline Building. 🙂"

"Steve, the owner, showed up when promised to do the estimate on power washing and painting 2 coats on all exterior trim, soffits, boxing, and porch rails. He emailed the estimate the next day and I accepted. The work was scheduled and Manuel came on time to do the pressure washing. The next day Manuel and his crew arrived and did the paint job, including hand washing aluminum gutters and downspouts. They returned to finish the following day. The next day Steve and Manuel returned and Steve inspected the work and pointed out several spots that needed touching up which Manuel promptly took care of. All cleanup was done and the work was excellent. In addition Steve and Manuel are both very personable and a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend this company."

"Jose and crew were timely, conscientious, great communicator, hard-working and tidy. They treated my little 1940 cabin in the desert like a brand new home. They worked with the materials I supplied and it was very enjoyable listening to them enjoying their work. I would highly recommend them.!"

"Pursuant to a recommendation by a kitchen designer, my wife and I met with Mr. Bachert.  We knew that everything in the kitchen space had to be replaced, including flooring, electrical and lighting, plumbing, appliances, etc.  During the meeting, Mr. Bachert explained to us his recommendations and pricing.  He did not hold back.  We were impressed by his immediate response to our questions and his straightforwardness.  I should note that I have a better than average knowledge in such matters, having remodeled two homes.  My wife and I had no problem with what Mr. Bachert told us about the quality of materials he would use and the workers who would do the various jobs.  He assured us that required official inspections would be done timely as required. Most important was the quoted price - "right on the money," so to speak.  It was exactly the amount I estimated.  We contracted with Mr. Bachert the next day when he presented his proposal.  The work began timely, giving my wife and me opportunities to choose tiles, appliances, etc.  It was obvious to us that the workers were a team and performed that way.  Although there were unfavorable surprises as the old kitchen was torn out, the workers handled such obstacles as routine.  There was never a time when my wife voiced concerns that were not immediately put to rest, and I must say that she inspected almost every detail and asked questions along the way.  The renovated bathroom was a snap - couldn't be more attractive.  We are greatly pleased with our new renovations.  Oh yes, several friends and neighbors stopped by to see the progress of the work being done, and inspected the completed job.  All of them have told us they were impressed by the quality of work and attractiveness of our kitchen and bathroom.  One couple has requested Mr. Bachert to prepare a proposal to renovate a section of their home.
While the work was being done, my wife and I agreed that it would be a good time to seriously consider the major addition that we had thought and talked about for a long time.  Mr. Bachert, said "sure" he could do what we describe to him.  He gave us a ballpark idea of costs, including surveys, permits, and other requirements.  That, too, was favorable, considering our budget.  Today, we signed another contract with Mr. Bachert.

"In October 2024, Josh and his team at Coastal Builders LLC helped us in addition to the house for eldercare. This was an extensive project that included a carport, and an additional room to the house that included a safer bathroom and a wash area. The entire team were excellent in informing us about the progress of the addition to the house. Any questions that the owners had were promptly answered. When issues arose, Josh always offered solutions and sought to make sure that our preferences were accommodated. He even offered to run small errands for us. We recommend the entire team at Coastal Builders to anyone who has a project."

"Chad Richmond was an excellent contractor. He started the project on schedule and stayed on it until completed. His reliability, trustworthiness and quality of work all met or exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend Richmond Homes and will use them again."

"The actual roofing job in 2014 went fine. We were pleased with the initial work and the price. However, the company’s follow up is sorely lacking. They responded when we had a concern about some of the new roofing within a couple of weeks. Our second issue it took much longer to get a response from them. Now in 2019, we have been trying to get them to come and check out our roof for hail damage. We can’t get anyone to call us. Just some texts and passing off of responsibility. Their customer service is poor."

FAQs for new home building projects in Wilmington, NC

Stone homes offer exceptional longevity compared to conventional building methods. These structures resist fire, insects, and severe weather conditions that often damage standard construction. While initial construction costs may exceed those of building methods, stone homes require less frequent repairs and maintenance over their lifespan. Many historic stone structures have remained functional for centuries, demonstrating their remarkable durability and longevity. This extended lifespan can result in lower long-term ownership costs, despite the higher initial investment.

Stone construction provides natural temperature regulation through thermal mass, potentially reducing heating and cooling requirements. As a natural material, stone requires minimal processing compared to manufactured building products. However, quarrying operations can impact local ecosystems, and transporting heavy stone materials creates significant carbon emissions. Homeowners can minimize environmental impact by selecting locally sourced stone and incorporating recycled materials where possible. The exceptional longevity of stone structures often results in a favorable environmental assessment over their lifetime compared to buildings that require frequent replacement.

Stone construction progresses more slowly than standard building methods due to the meticulous nature of stonework. The process requires careful material selection, precise placement, and appropriate curing times for mortar. Weather conditions significantly impact the construction timeline, as masonry work often has to pause during unfavorable conditions. The specialized skills required and the limited availability of experienced stonemasons can also extend project schedules. Homeowners should plan for extended construction timelines when pursuing stone house projects.

Most stone house projects utilize construction financing that converts to permanent mortgages upon completion. While stone construction represents a premium building method, some lenders recognize the inherent value and durability these structures provide. Construction loans require detailed plans, specifications, and contractor estimates for approval. Some regions offer specialized programs for traditional building methods or energy-efficient construction that may apply to stone houses. Consulting with multiple lenders helps identify the most favorable financing options for your specific project.
