Blake Shaw Homes | Atlanta, Athens, Custom Homes and Remodeling

Testimonial from Lindsay A. Forlines

Our renovation story starts like many others.... not really looking to move, my husband and I happened upon a gem - a 1931 home with a great floor plan and a 1.3 acre lot in our beloved Avondale Estates. We knew we wanted to make it ours, and tweak it and update it to make it our own. Once our purchase was complete, we contacted Blake Shaw Homes to discuss renovations. Having seen several of Blake's previous projects, we knew we could trust our dream and our investment to him. Blake listened and patiently worked through our meetings, emails, and calls throughout the process.

Testimonial from Jenn and Jason Williams

Thank you so much for everything…This beautiful house, all the weekend/late night calls and meetings, all the questions, and of course…the sink grate!  We truly love this home you’ve built for us.  We’re very lucky to have been able to work with you.  You’re extremely talented.  So thank you in advance for all the memories we are about to have in this house…our new home.

Testimonial from Jason and Tara McDaniel

My wife and I needed to expand our two bedroom, one bath, ranch in Decatur to accommodate our growing family.  After consulting with Blake Shaw Homes we developed a plan to convert our existing carport into a master suite. 

Testimonial from Jordan and Allyson Kiel

It is obvious that Blake enjoys what he does- he is a true artist.

It is in this circumstance when Blake Shaw Homes, an Atlanta-based custom home builder and remodeler, utilizes new technologies and features to create a place that is spacious, luxurious and designed for relaxing.

Choosing the Best Contractor for Your Project

Choosing the right contractor for your project is the most important part of the remodeling process.

More than likely, you have asked friends and family members to recommend a contractor that they had a great experience with and tell you that you can trust.

Regardless, there are so many "horror stories" about projects going bad or companies going under in the midst of a project and leaving it unfinished that you are no doubt hesitant to fully trust anyone with such an important task.

Testimonial from David and Benita Nelson

When we decided to move to the Georgia Club, we knew we needed a house that would take us from a home with two teenagers to empty nesters within 5 years. We poured over house plans, interviewed 4 builders and decided to contract with Blake Shaw.

Blake immediately picked up on our needs and was very willing to work with our level of expectations as well as within a reasonable budget we had set for ourselves.
