Testimonials
It had always been our dream to not only build our dream home, but to also be able to live by the beach. Brimco Builders delivered with what they promised us, a beautiful home that we are very pleased with. Brian understood our vision for this home, and had creative ideas of this home that pushed this project to the next limit. He stayed relatively close to our time line, and was alway available to answer our questions and concerns.

Our experience with Brimco Builders, who built our beach home in 2014, was excellent. We are thrilled with the exceptional quality of our 2,300 square foot home and Brimco's attention to detail. We would definitely use this builder again and highly recommend Brimco Builders to others.

My husband and I are extremely happy with our beach house, completed in September 2014 by Brimco Builders. My husband is a general contractor and was skeptical about having another contractor build his house. But immediately upon meeting Brian Deanhardt, my husband knew he was the man for the job. That decision proved to be the right one as Brian was easy to work with - flexible, professional, knowledgeable and always available. We feel that our house is of superb quality - well-constructed with many unique features and energy star rated. We highly recommend Brimco Builders and would definitely work with Brian again.

From our first interaction, we were overwhelmed by Brian Deanhardt and Brimco Builders' commitment to us as a buyer and potential future homeowner. Brian accepted our call on a rainy Saturday afternoon and made immediate arrangements for us to visit another home he built within 15 minutes. He has stellar relationships with his homeowners and is always happy to have prospective buyers meet his former customers and view his work. Once we saw the quality of his work we knew he was the builder for us and made a decision to build our dream beach home that same afternoon. Our experience from start to finish has been fantastic and Brian was more than willing to allow us to make changes and additions along the way. We closed almost 3 months ago and have thoroughly enjoyed our new home and feel so proud-our guests and visitors are amazed at the extras and upgrades Brimco Builders considers standard. Brian has remained in contact with us even after closing and is readily accessible for questions. He is a valued member of the Carteret County Community and takes great pride in his work and reputation and is known for his high expectation with his employees and does not cut corners. It is important to him for his buyers and homeowners to be 100% pleased with excellence (not just getting by). We have recommended him and his craftsmanship to everyone we meet. You know a builder has pride in his work when he is a frequent visitor in the neighborhood, calls you to see how things are going and makes a point of speaking when he sees his homeowners out in the community at various venues. If we ever build another home, Brian Deanhardt will be the only builder for us.

All I can say is "WOW". I have been so pleased with the work Brian & Brimco did for us building our dream beach house. The craftsmanship and level of attention paid to the smallest details has been unbelievable. What impressed me the most was that in those case where Brian could have made the decision to go "good enough", he always chose to go one step further and chose the best option, even on the smallest things.
With any new house, you will find some minor issues after closing. This is where you really see the type of person you are dealing with, and Brian far exceeded my expectations. He never once argued with us, or told us that an issue we wanted fixed or changed was not a problem, he simply said "OK" and did it.
I would, and have, highly recommend Brimco without any hesitation whatsoever.

Brian Deanhardt of Brimco Builders was very attentive to our requests and designed a unique and beautiful home for us. The finishes are first class and we had very few items to be addressed at the end. This was very much appreciated since we were conducting business long distance. Brian is very trustworthy and delivers on his promises. We would highly recommend Brimco to anyone desiring a well-built, beautifully-designed home.

Brimco Builders/Brian Deanhardt is a class act. Excellent builder and design skills. Down to earth and easy to work with. Available when we had any concerns. Would definitely recommend Brian to build your dream home. We finally have ours and couldn't be happier.

This was a big job because it was a major add-on to an old waterfront home with heavy mud conditions, CAMA requirements that demanded exact measurements, and very sensitive building and environmental concerns. This project was completed on time and in a professional manner in every respect, and with Mr. Deanhardt himself on site at least 3 times a week. Please accept my personal recommendation of Mr. Deanhardt without any reservation.

We love our new home. Brian did a great job working with us to create an attractive design that was built on a demanding site. He has extensive knowledge of home construction and material selection for a coastal home. His attention to detail and quality are invaluable during the design and construction process. Brian always tried to include all of our wishes into the house.Our home was constructed in six months during a very wet fall and winter. We highly recommend him if you are looking for a great home builder.
Cal Edmondson
Brian Deanhardt, owner of Brimco Builders, drew the plans for and built our almost 3000 square foot dream home at the beach in his local area! We love it and we're so glad we chose Brimco and Brian Deanhardt! Very friendly and professional. Awesome to work with! Incorporated every detail on our wish list. Employees and sub-contractors were nice and easy to work with, as well. We could not be happier with the finished product! Being 200 miles from where you are building can be a little daunting. Not so with Brimco! We would do it all again and our builder would have to be Brian Deanhardt, Brimco Builders, Harkers Island NC (near Morehead City NC)!

Brimco Builders just completed our custom energy star beach home. From design thru post construction Brian was easy to work with. He is an excellent listener, extremely knowledgeable in energy efficiency and the challenges of coastal construction. He was on site supervising every step of the construction process. He was always available, great communication, kept detailed spread sheets of expenses. Extremely fair when making changes during construction. His subs were awesome and easy to work with. Brian is professional and strives to produce quality homes. Customer satisfaction is extremely important to him. His integrity, attention to detail and superb craftsmanship are evident in our finished Beach Cottage. Thank You Brian we couldn't be happier.

Brimco Builders is always there when you need them. Following Hurricane Aurthur Brimco Builders was at my home with in 24 hours completing repairs. Other contractors that came through to assist residents but there homes still sit unrepaired. Brimco always does excellent quality work. There is no reason to go anywhere else.

Brimco built a custom house for us in 2013. The quality of the workmanship was excellent and the builder provided terrific onsite supervision to assure expectations were met. Brian was extremely easy to work with and provided creative insights to several options we were considering during design. His follow up after construction was also exceptional. We would highly recommend this builder.

There are not enough stars to recommend this builder. Ability, flexibility, availability, expertise, are all strengths of Brian Deanhardt. There are no blueprints for the beach house project he constructed for us, only an original plan. Brian was able to raise ceiling heights, add porches, enlarge room sizes and create more storage space as we created a much better layout of our original version. He tirelessly found extraordinary products doing research to find the best, most durable lines for beach front living, i.e. porch railings, outdoor flooring, light fixtures, even outdoor appliance for an outdoor kitchen and fireplace. Now that our project has been completed for 2 years, he is only a phone call away from helping us with even the smallest of concerns about our home.

Brimco Builders replaced my gas fireplace with a wood burning one last fall. They did an excellent job. Brian listen to what I wanted and then made it happen, and on time. The workers were always there when they said they would be and cleaned up before they left each time!! The fireplace is beautiful and works amazingly!! I would definitely recommend Brimco Builders to anyone and personally look forward to working with them again.

Brian has worked with my husband and me from the earliest stages of planning our home to the current post-construction phase. In the beginning he asked thought-provoking questions to discover what features would really make the home truly ours. He counseled us on materials appropriate to our budget, desired level of energy efficiency and the look we were attempting to achieve. He maintained excellent communication with us throughout the project and accounted for expenditures through concise spreadsheets. Brian supervised every step of construction, attended to even the smallest details and always sought our input where options existed. Both quality and craftsmanship are evident in every aspect of the home. Our finished home fits beautifully in our neighborhood and visitors always tell us that the home expresses our personalities and lifestyle perfectly.

I chose Brian Deanhardt of Brimco Builders to build my house on Harkers Island because he convinced me that he was familiar with many/most pitfalls of coastal building and how to prevent them, because he was "hands on" and focused on each and every home he built, and because he also lived on the Island and couldn't run far. I was not disappointed. Brian did an excellent job with the construction, was attentive to detail, and extremely responsive to any concerns that I had. Even though my house is out of warranty, Brian still checks on the house, and is willing to help with any issues that arise. After hurricane Arthur, Brian was by the house at 06:30 assessing any damage. He saw a couple of shingles missing on a lower ridge and had them replaced within a couple of days. He saw that I had a deck post cap missing and brought me a new one. First class guy and full service during and after the process. I highly recommend Brian, and am happy to talk further with potential clients of Brimco Builders.
