I highly recommend JAG for renovations. They offer high quality work at a fair price. Their estimates are the most detailed and accurate estimates you will find anywhere. Probably the most important reason to choose JAG though is their communication. They are very responsive (always getting back to me on issues within hours -even on weekends) and I never felt like I was hearing a sales pitch. You want to a contractor who you can trust to be looking out for your best interest and JAG has shown that for our renovation project many times over.

We have some experience with remodeling, but we never built from scratch. We researched local builders, and were quickly hooked on JAG. The collaboration throughout the organization is impressive. Rob Johnson was our direct contact. Communications were always open and timely. Suggestions from Rob were excellent (e.g. screened back porch was the pinnacle). Loved the limited standard options for finishes, and the willingness Rob & JAG provided when we went "off-menu".
On the occasions when Rob didn't have a specific answer, Jody or Gary or Noi or Donna were in the know. We had regular status updates

JAG is a competent, knowledgeable, and upstanding company that goes above and beyond in building well-constructed, beautiful homes. Their pricing is competitive, and their work is top-notch. The whole staff, and especially our Project Manager, Rob Johnson, made the whole experience stress-free and fun, and they were involved in every step along the way during construction. We absolutely love our new home, and cannot recommend JAG enough.

They were extremely professional and really delivered the quality I was looking for. They were extremely responsive throughout and did a great job of managing the sub-contractors. The job came in 3-4% under-budget based on the detailed estimate process they incorporate. Overall I was extremely pleased with the work throughout and in the final outcome.

Positive: Professionalism
I was nervous about the home building process, but everyone at JAG was a pleasure to work with. From start to finish, the whole team was ethical, professional, and really enjoyable to work with - not to mention, they do really beautiful work. I would recommend them to anyone.

We moved into our custom JAG home in September 2018 and could not be happier. After meeting Jody Guokas nine years prior and watching his company develop into one of the leading green builders in the Asheville area, we knew we wanted to work with him when were finally ready to build. His passion for sustainability combined with his relaxed demeanor made that decision easy.
After hearing many horror stories over the years about building, we consider ourselves lucky as we found the whole undertaking to be exciting, interesting and pleasant. JAG has a terrific crew - office and otherwise - that is

JAG finished our new home ahead of schedule and on budget. We could not be happier. The management is kind, reliable, honest and laid back. The value to cost ratio with JAG Construction is unsurpassed. The project manager was on point throughout the process and kept the project running like a well oiled machine. Our home won a Gold Medal for Craftsmanship in the 2019 Parade of Homes.

As a custom JAG and Associates Construction homeowner myself and real estate broker for 20 years, I can honestly say that JAG is above and beyond professional and a pleasure to work with. I look forward to selling more JAG homes and I will continue to recommend thier services to all my future buyers looking for spec and/or custom homes in Asheville.

JAG Construction did an amazing job with my new custom green home in West Asheville. Not only was the home finished on time and within budget, but the crew was great to work with throughout the process. I especially appreciate their friendliness and them accommodating my visits to the site during construction. They took time to answer my questions throughout the build, even when it was clear that my questions were not that intelligent. Jody Guokas helped with decision making with materials and products during the design, and his suggestions were spot on. My energy bills have been extremely low

We had our house built by Jody and his team in 2012. We have nothing but positive things to say about the process and end result.
Everyone who worked on house was very friendly and accommodating and the project was finished before the deadline. Jody is a great communicator and his knowledge and experience really made our decisions and choices easy to make.
The house itself is just perfect and we're extremely happy with how it turned out.
