Lorton Mitchell Custom Homes built our dream home for us four years ago and exceeded all our expectations, from initial design assistance to the custom build. Our home is a perfect mix of 1926 historic charm and new construction that created a beautiful and livable home for our family. The team at Lorton Mitchell Custom Homes was prompt and professional and paid attention to every detail. The job site was professionally managed and that made the process great for us, and our neighbors as well. The quality of the workmanship is first class and they stand behind every aspect of our home should a problem arise.

Why Homeowners Choose Lorton Mitchell

From the moment we engaged with the team at Lorton Mitchell Custom Homes we knew this would be a superior building experience. We had built two other custom homes in the previous 5 years and immediately they differentiated themselves with their knowledge, creativity, and commitment to excellence. Our expectations of a build team can be somewhat daunting and from beginning to end those standards were met and exceeded. The level of detail to carefully think through the finish product by Jeff and Nate was impressive and we couldn’t be happier with the quality. This is definitely the best built home we’ve experienced. The care and attention did not end once construction was complete; they have continued to earn our trust and appreciation with maintenance and misc. warranty items that always need attention after you build a new home. We are so thankful to Lorton Mitchell for making our dream home a reality.

Jon & Misty Scurlock

Our experience with Jeff Norton and the entire Lorton Mitchell crew was nothing short of perfection. Their attention to detail, professional demeanor and dedication to client satisfaction made our project an enjoyable one. We have nothing but gratitude and appreciation to our construction team for helping us complete our dream home!

Sam & Emily Fox

The entire Lorton Mitchell team is very professional; provide excellent customer service and a quality finished product. Our house was a complicated renovation of a 1902 Historic Home that required a new foundation. Throughout the process of building our home they paid attention to every detail, suggested many improvements, explained all options and proved themselves completely trustworthy. We are very happy with the final product and would enthusiastically recommend Lorton Mitchell Custom Homes, Inc., to anyone wanting a new home or a remodel.

Jill & Bernie Esrock

Our experience with Lorton Mitchell Custom Homes was exceptional in every way. Our project was an extensive remodel and addition on an 80 year old home and LMCH executed it beautifully in every regard. The craftsmanship, attention to detail, styling touches, and just plain thoughtfulness made it a pleasure to work with the entire crew. They were prompt, reliable, neat, and friendly. The project started and finished on the promised schedule and finished slightly under budget. I’m almost embarrassed when I speak with friends about what a positive experience it was in every way. Another real positive is that the crew has been fantastic in follow up for additional items that we added in the last several years. There is never any quibble about warranty-they just make it right. We started out to find a builder for a house and we ended up with a friend who built a home with as much care and love as if it was his own.
