Brevard is waterfall country — the wettest corner of our service area, and the one where building envelopes matter most.

Building in Brevard

Local Knowledge, Transylvania County

Brevard sits at the gateway to Pisgah National Forest and DuPont State Recreational Forest, with Looking Glass Rock, Sliding Rock and hundreds of waterfalls in the surrounding gorges. Transylvania County catches more rain than anywhere else we build — well over 60 inches a year on the higher slopes — and that single fact drives most of our decisions here.

Building in Brevard means envelopes designed for water: generous overhangs, rainscreen detailing, careful roof-to-wall flashing, gutters and grading sized for real downpours, and crawlspaces or slabs built to stay dry in a wet climate. Cedar Mountain and the Connestee area add steep-slope and stormwater considerations on top of that.

Projects here include new custom homes on wooded and view parcels near the forest boundary, second homes and retirement houses in gated communities, and luxury remodeling of homes built in the 1980s and 1990s that need modern glazing, better insulation, refreshed kitchens and baths, and porches rebuilt as year-round outdoor rooms. The music-and-arts crowd around downtown and Brevard College also keeps demand steady for well-detailed in-town renovations.

Brevard is at the southwest edge of our radius, so we run those jobs on a concentrated schedule rather than spreading them across the calendar.
