We're not a franchise, not a regional division, not a company that arrived in the Upstate when the market got hot. We're a family that has been building here for four generations — and we'll be here for four more.
Four generations of building in Pickens, Oconee, and Anderson County means we've built through every market cycle, every design trend, and every economic shift the Upstate has seen. We know what lasts and what doesn't — not because we read about it, but because we've built it, lived through it, and fixed the mistakes we saw others make.
What that means for you is simple: we're not going to build you something trendy. We're going to build you something that your children will still be proud of.
"Locally rooted means more than an address. It means your builder's reputation is built on the same streets yours is."
Today Craftowne is run by a father and his two sons — a small team by intention. We build a select number of homes each year because quality and accountability require attention. When you build with us, you're working with family, start to finish, not a project manager reading notes from someone else's site visit.
Fourth-Generation Builders
A father and his two sons — three people who share a last name, a reputation, and a commitment to building things that last. We've been doing this together long enough to know what we're good at and humble enough to know what we're still learning.
Vetted · Local · Accountable
We work with a tight circle of subcontractors we've built relationships with over years. These aren't the cheapest trades — they're the ones who answer the phone, do the work right, and stand behind it. Same standard we hold ourselves to.
We Don't Disappear
When something needs attention six months after you move in, you call the family that built it. Not a warranty department. Not a 1-800 number. We're local — and that means something to us.
