Western North Carolina · North Georgia
For 20 years, we built these homes under someone else's name. Now we build under our own.
Two generations of one family. Master craftsmen building the high country since the 1980s — landscaping, masonry, roofing, construction, paint, and tile. Now working direct, with the same hands and the same standards.
What we build
Built by the families who've worked these mountains for generations.
Masonry & Stone
Stone walls, fireplaces, chimneys, outdoor kitchens, restoration.
Construction & Carpentry
Additions, decks, framing, trim, custom builds.
Roofing
Shingle, metal, and repairs — all types, built to hold up to mountain weather.
Painting
Interior and exterior, finish coats, clean lines inside and out.
Tile & Flooring
Kitchen, bath, and floor tile — set level, grouted right, made to last.
Our work
Two generations of craftsmanship — in stone, timber, and finish.
From full custom-home framing to hand-laid stone and finish carpentry, this is the work our family has built across the high country. Every trade you can do on a home — done by the same hands.
Where we work
Serving the high country — both sides of the state line.
From the granite ridges of the Cashiers plateau to the rivers of Macon County, we work the towns we live in. Crews live within an hour of every jobsite — so call-backs are quick, walkthroughs are unhurried, and the people you meet on day one are the people you'll see on day done.

Who we are
We didn't have to invent the supply. We were born into it. Now we're building the demand.
Our story starts in the 1980s. Our fathers and uncles came north from Mexico, escaping the violence and looking for honest work. By the 90s they had brought the next generation up — sons, daughters, cousins — into the trades that were waiting in these mountains.
Landscaping was the first. Then painting. Then masonry, framing, finish carpentry, tile — every trade you can do on a home, somebody in this family learned it. We learned it on the best job sites in Western North Carolina and North Georgia, working for the contractors who built the homes you see in magazines.
For more than twenty years, the family did the work. Other people held the contract.
Monarch is the next chapter. The same hands that built these mountains — now with the language, the technology, and a new generation of college-graduate sons and daughters ready to run a business of our own. And the same immigrant work ethic our fathers brought with them. That part isn't going anywhere.
We're cutting out the middleman because we already are the middle. You get a direct line to the people doing the work. Bilingual crews. Faster response. Same craftsmanship — at a fair price, with no layers in between.
