We signed on with Grace Construction to build our custom home. It’s more like “Grace’s” Construction instead of “Grace” because you are working with a team (Matt and Kelly Grace). This was our first time building a home. We can say the experience was awesome! Sure, it was a bit time consuming, and we had to make a million decisions, but that’s what you sign up for when you go “Custom”. There is something special about knowing that you picked everything in your house right down to the color of grout used between tiles.
Here are few highlights for why using Grace Construction was a good decision for us:
- The Grace’s are great communicators. They were always quick to respond to texts/calls. It didn’t hurt that they were fun to chat with too.
- Their process was super organized. Meetings etc. were planned out way ahead of time. It was so obvious they are pros at what they do, and this translated into us trusting and feeling comfortable throughout the process.
- The budget was not taken lightly, and Kelly made sure we didn’t blow it to pieces! One of us tried to push for getting a gold-plated toilet. Kelly came in with a prompt reality check! HaHa!
- Transparency was a huge part of how they operate. You will know where every dollar gets spent on your home. It is doubtful that you will find many builders putting together detailed budget reports like them. That type of honesty added to the trust we had with them. Much appreciated Matt and Kelly!
- Matt is a “boots on the ground” type of person. He will be on-site constantly keeping an eye on his subs and working on various projects himself. He is a stand-up kind of guy!
In the end we found ourselves living in a beautiful quality-built home that was enjoyable to build. We would certainly choose Grace Construction again if we decided to go for round two. Thank you “Team Grace”!!

Matthew Grace is amazing (Grace Construction). Not only did he build us an amazing shop, but he has gone way above and beyond to help us even after the shop was completed. I can’t think of a more trustworthy & helpful person who also happens to be a top notch builder. If you are thinking of building a house or adding on, I would definitely give him a call!”

Josh and I met with Matt Grace and Kelly Grace for the first time in December 2017. We knew there would be no other consideration in who would build our home from the very moment we walked into theirs. They were professional, knowledgeable, relatable, attentive, and genuinely nice people. Horror stories of building are innumerable, and we were fully prepared for the worst. They have been absolutely nothing short of outstanding individuals to work with. Together, they have answered every question, responded to every text, attended countless meetings, and in the end made all of our dreams come true. They listened to every request, saw through every detail, and genuinely cared about our satisfaction in the end. Matt and Kelly, I cannot thank you enough for being there and giving us this house that we are so proud to call our forever home. We will be eternally grateful that we had the opportunity to work with the two of you. I’m “pretty sure” choosing Grace Construction was the best decision we ever made.

I first met Matt when my wife and I talked with him about building a house. It was clear from the beginning that Matt is very trustworthy and he was willing to go above and beyond to help us through the construction process. The level of customer service we received exceeded our expectations. To this day, we are in contact with Matt and he is always willing to help. Trust, devotion, accountability, and teamwork are all essential values for our workforce. Matt lives by those values daily at Grace Construction. Above all, Matt is a person of integrity.

Home looks awesome. The best decision we ever made was Grace Construction. Matt and Kelly are personally involved in every step of the way and make a house your home. They use the best products and only reputable contractors. The best blessing for us in building our home was the Grace’s.

Matt Grace Construction has recently helped my husband and I remodel our 20 year old home. We have been very pleased with the quality of work and the timeliness of Matt’s responses to our questions and inquiries. The first job was to remove a small existing screened in porch. It was replaced with a larger all season room which also included an Eze-Breeze system. The second job was to turn a small sitting room into a walk-in closet. Both jobs exhibit quality workmanship. Matt is very professional and takes pride in his work. I would recommend Matt Grace Construction and plan to use him for our next remodeling job.

I teach children with disabilities in Beaufort County and class was in Wendy’s for lunch.
I believe two other customers were employees of Grace Construction. One of the men
approached me to ask if he and his friend could purchase a frosty for each
child. I did not get their names (I think that I was in shock). I wanted you to
know how special and considerate these two employees were and how they
represented themselves and your company. My assistant even mentioned how they
jumped up from the table to open the door for the ladies coming into the
restaurant. These kind acts mean a lot to me, my assistants and the parents of
my students. If you are able to figure out which two employees it may have
been, please express my gratitude once more for their thoughtfulness.

My name is Lesley Holley. I live in Washington, NC. I understand that today, 2 gentleman
who work with Grace Construction bought Frostys for the students in one of our classes
at John Small Elementary School. I am a teacher at John Small, so I am appreciative
for this generous gesture. The students in that class are so very special and
it means a lot that someone would want to give from the goodness of their
heart. I love all of the students in that class, but I am especially partial to
the brown-haired boy who wears glasses and LOVES ice cream. That boy is my son
and I want to say thanks for what was done for those precious children today. I
do not know who the gentlemen were, but please get this message to each of
them. Thanks for sharing and loving our children. God bless you and yours.

Matt Grace is a very professional person. He was prompt in returning my call and we met soon after to discuss the work and an estimate. I was impressed with the detailed approach to the job. The work was scheduled soon after and was done on the timeline we agreed upon. Frankly, I was surprised how soon he and his crew were able to get to the work. It was done very well and there was very little residue left over from the work. I am very pleased how the work looks and I also like the fact that his bid on the work was not only the lowest one I received, but also the one that addressed the work I wanted to have done. Finally, I appreciate Matt’s commitment to quality, both in the materials he uses as well as the quality of the people he hires. I will ask Matt to give me estimates on future work and enthusiastically recommend him to others. (Angie’s List Review)

I was in need of a new exterior wooden fence for a rental property. I asked a trusted friend of mine in the landscaping business who he would recommend. My friend didn’t give me a list of companies or names. He just smiled and wrote one name down on a sticky note – Matt Grace. My friend knew I valued quality, responsiveness, integrity, and fairness. Matt knocked the project out of the park – the fence is outstanding. Now, I have two upcoming projects for my own house with Matt Grace’s name on them. Thanks Matt for your professionalism, expertise, and world-class work!

Knowing Matt and his family for over 25 years, I contacted him regarding the addition of a full bathroom in a 1950’s home located near the University. His expertise was very impressive as we were wanting to continue the style of the home. Matt goes above and beyond with his work. He recognizes that his name is on the finished product, and holds himself to a higher standard. In addition, I appreciated the communication from Matt throughout the project. Matt is trustworthy, professional and a man of character. If you want your project done right, call Matt Grace.

Matt and his crew did an amazing job on the room addition and interior remodeling for our home. We highly recommend Grace Construction, Inc. because they do an awesome job and we are blessed that we chose them to do the work. They are respectful, honest and ensure high quality. We love our room addition and floors.

We have known Matt for many years and know that he is trustworthy and honest. Matt has helped us with a variety of household repairs and we will definitely call on him again in the future.

Our family home suffered tremendously from Hurricane Irene. Matt Grace, of Grace Construction, Inc., helped piece our home back together with long hours and weeks’ worth of labor. Not only is he dependable, reasonable, and eager to complete the job right but, he also feels like family.

Grace Construction recently completed our 40 x 60 square foot heated, free standing shop with 12 x 40 foot porch shelters on each end. Matt handled everything from clearing the lot to final sign off with county inspectors and made sure all phases of the project were within budget and of the upmost quality. He maintained a hands-on approach with all sub-contractors making sure their workmanship met his quality expectations. We are extremely excited about our new shop.
Ty and Ginny Roberts, Winterville, NC
Matt has completed multiple remodeling projects for me and my favorite is the computer desk with bookcase and window seat unit he designed and built for my bedroom. It’s a great addition to the room adding much needed storage space. He has proven to be reliable and you can depend on him to do a quality job. I have recommended him to friends and neighbors and will continue to do so.
