Premier Custom Home Builder Serving NC & SC

At Carolinas Building Company, you’re never “just another project.” You’re a partner.

Building a custom home is one of the largest investments you will ever make. You don’t need a contractor who simply checks boxes; you need a dedicated partner who values your vision as much as you do.

Founded by Nicholas Yusenko, Carolinas Building Company was built on a simple promise: transparency, detail, and teamwork. We move beyond the transactional nature of construction to build relationships first, then homes.

Whether you own land in Union County or are looking for a tear-down opportunity in South Park, we provide turnkey construction solutions that take the stress out of building. We handle the logistics so you can focus on the dream.

Our Approach: The Design-Build Advantage

Most homeowners fear the “disconnect”—the gap between what an architect draws and what a builder can actually build within budget.

We eliminate that gap.

As a full-service residential general contractor, we utilize a design-build process that aligns your creative vision with real-world construction costs from day one. By integrating architectural design services directly with construction management, we ensure that every detail is feasible before we break ground.

We believe in open communication. No hidden costs. No surprises. Just clear expectations and project management that respect your time and your investment.

Transparency: You see what we see. Honest pricing and clear timelines.

Craftsmanship: We obsess over the details that others overlook.

Flexibility: From universal design for aging-in-place to modern family layouts, we build for your life.

Custom Construction Services

We don’t just pour concrete and frame walls. We manage the entire project lifecycle, offering specialized services to meet you wherever you are in your journey.

Build On Your Lot (BOYL)

Already own a piece of the Carolinas? We specialize in Build-on-Your-Lot (BOYL) projects. Building on raw land requires more than just a blueprint; it requires complex logistics.

We handle the heavy lifting of land development:

Site evaluation to determine buildability and topography.
Site preparation, including grading and utility connections.
Foundation construction engineered specifically for your soil conditions.

Don’t let the technicalities of raw land scare you. We turn your lot into a legacy.

Luxury Custom Estates

Custom floor plans tailored to your lifestyle.
Stunning exterior elevations that have curb appeal.
High-end luxury finishes sourced from top suppliers.
Energy-efficient building practices that lower long-term costs.

Whether you need multi-generational floor plans for extended family or a modern architectural masterpiece, we have the expertise to execute it.

Architectural Design & Planning

The most expensive mistakes happen before the shovel hits the dirt. That’s why we emphasize a thorough pre-construction phase.

We navigate the bureaucracy for you, handling all zoning and permitting with local municipalities.

For projects exceeding $25k, we utilize a pre-construction agreement. This allows us to perform deep-dive discovery, coordinate structural engineering, and provide you with an accurate, fixed-price quote—not a “guesstimate.” This upfront investment saves you thousands in change orders later.

Understanding how to pay for a custom build can be confusing. Unlike buying an existing house, building requires construction financing.
