- Gustav Stickley​

ES Johnson Builders built our Davidson, NC home in 2012. There are many, many things we love about our home, but what really stands out is the ES Johnson Builders signature style - "Southern Casual Elegance"! The attention to detail throughout the home is simply wonderful. Thank you, ES Johnson Team!

After interviewing several custom builders, we spoke with Eric Johnson and instantly connected with him on our appreciation of coastal design. As a design/builder, E.S. Johnson made the entire process seamless from design, through architectural planning, through the build. Eric quoted us one price for our home (which included allowances) and delivered the agreed product at that price. We couldn't be happier with our house.

We were looking to build our first house in 2013, and started the process of meeting with as many builders as we could. After a few weeks, we thought maybe we should just buy something already built, as many of our meetings were a big let down. When we met with Eric, on a referral from our agent, we walked out of the first meeting knowing that this was exactly who we would be building with. Eric not only has a passion for building homes, and a taste for style, but his knowledge of everything in between was extremely impressive. He knew our budget, got to quickly understand our style, and built us the perfect coastal home with all the high-end finishes we could have ever expected.  

​2.5 years later we sold our home in under a week, and are finalizing plans to build with Eric again. We are excited to have Eric get creative on our custom farmhouse and look forward to working with his team again.

When my husband and I decided to make our dream of building a modern farmhouse a reality, we started researching custom builders in the area. There were many options out there, but ES Johnson stood out as our favorite! From the initial design meeting until the last walk through, we were taken care of. Eric's entire team was always there to help.  We have lived in our ES Johnson home for 2.5 years now and we absolutely love it! We feel very proud of our home, especially when friends and family say how beautiful it turned out and that the quality shines through.
