We could tell you why families trust Sixteen Penny Construction with a project this personal. It’s more convincing to let the families who’ve already been through it tell you themselves.

Below are real five-star reviews from Google, grouped by the kind of project each family took on — building a custom home, starting from bare land, or renovating a home they already loved.

 

Custom Home Builds

  • “Our family had a wonderful experience working with the entire Sixteen Penny team to build our custom home. The process was smooth and collaborative from the early planning stages through construction and selections. Wes, Chris, and David were all knowledgeable, responsive, and genuinely enjoyable to work with.” — Carl Brendes
  • “The BEST building experience so far for my family! We have built a half dozen homes on our own and with other builders but Wes and his crew made it so easy, and the creative eye that Wes has aligned perfectly with our taste. They kept us in budget and really made the project a success by being who they are… They treat you like family.” — Fred Wingate II
  • “Sixteen Penny did an incredible job on our home build. The quality, attention to detail, and communication throughout the process were outstanding. The project was on budget and the finished product exceeded expectations.” — Jacob Frye
  • “Sixteen Penny built our home and we couldn’t be happier. Wes Piatt and his team worked hard, kept in touch every step of the way, and made sure every detail was just right. They’re honest, trustworthy, and their dedication shows in our beautiful home.” — Anna Martin
  • “We have done business with Wes Piatt and Sixteen Penny construction for over 10 years… he holds himself accountable for all aspects of the job from the very first nail to the last… He took this knockdown and made it into our dream home.” — Jen Tessicini

 

Building From Bare Land

  • “Buying land and having to start from dirt to build our dream home was stressful. We looked around to find the ideal company and struggled with how some over promised in the very beginning of the conversation. Sixteen Penny Construction was so great to work with. Wes was by our side the entire time.” — Chelsea Mullally
  • “When we decided to build our new home with 16 Penny, we took a leap of faith — but we very quickly realized we were in the best hands. Wes and Chris were always available… Working with them from across the country, we couldn’t have asked for a better experience.” — Serge Suchkov
  • “We were extremely lucky to work with the 16 Penny team, and we have an incredible house that is beyond what we could ever dream up. From beginning to end — and even two years later — we are impressed with the quality, execution, and professionalism.” — Mary Salcedo
  • “Wes Piatt was a blessing… during the construction of my new home. His consulting services were invaluable, and thanks to Mr. Piatt I was able to resolve the problems. His inspections helped me finish the home in good quality and pass all the county inspections.” — Jose Serrano

 

Renovations & Remodels

  • “Redid our bathroom and came under original price. Wes made great suggestions. Love the results.” — Pam Beers
  • “Having built several homes, fully renovated others, and worked in real estate and design, I can confidently share that Sixteen Penny is the best company I have ever hired… no idea is impossible.” — Meredith Dolhare
  • “We have used Sixteen Penny to do a half dozen renovations on our house. They are a great company to work with and very professional. Wes is very talented at helping with design and figuring things out. They’ve nailed every project.” — Andra Norman
  • “Sixteen Penny recently did a substantial renovation on an older home we had purchased. They did a fantastic job and we couldn’t be more pleased… they communicated very well throughout all phases.” — Ann Bass
  • “Sixteen Penny came strongly recommended, and they did not disappoint! 16P completed a first-floor remodel for our family… one of the most important aspects we appreciated was 16P standing behind the quality of their work.” — Chad H

 

Built on Relationships

  • “Wes and his team are amazing. Beautiful and exact building and remodeling. He is very patient, honest, and eager to please. I think he provides the very finest work in Charlotte. Ask his customers, they will assure you about his quality.” — Bob Burnette
  • “Wes is a very talented builder! He has done several projects for my family and I can’t say enough about his integrity and his creativity. He is able to see outside the box and propose innovative and thoughtful solutions!” — Ali Price

 

What Their Reviews Have in Common

Read enough of these and a pattern shows up: clients mention communication as often as craftsmanship, and Wes’s name comes up in nearly every one. That’s not a coincidence — it’s the same team, staying involved, from a bare lot or a first design conversation through the final walkthrough.
