Quality
Quality can only be achieved by a complete dedication to it by everyone on the team. Hiring a builder with decades of experience and a proven track record is the way to get there. Coach Duane Fanning once said “Little things make the difference. Everyone is well prepared in the big things, but only winners perfect the little things.”
This philosophy is why we created the process we use today. After utilizing every construction implementation method available, we ultimately learned that you can be a jack-of-all-trades but master of none. So instead of having a large, expensive staff, we have partnered with (and trained) the best talent in each field, and have them competitively price each project against another one of their contemporaries. This ensures two things: (1) that each client is getting the best tradesman for their project, and (2) each trade has submitted the most competitive price. Enjoy the posts below to see our promises turn into action.

The Settings of Black Mountain, client reference
“The quality of workmanship of LSC was first rate. Sean’s honesty and openness made us feel very comfortable with our choice of builders. Our house turned out beautifully, we couldn’t be happier with our home! Sean understands and appreciates the stress incurred in building a home, especially under the circumstances that we had to endure. Despite all of the delays and adversity from the developer, our house exceeded our expectations. The attention to detail has helped make our house a special home for us. We admire the work every time we are able to come to Black Mountain.” Mark Kraemer

“As an architect specializing in custom residential home design in the Asheville area, I have had the opportunity to work with Sean Sullivan on multiple custom home designs in The Settings of Black Mountain. Our experiences have been very positive, as has been the feedback from my clients. Sean’s strong work ethic, commitment to quality craftsmanship, attention to detail and customer satisfaction was exceptional. In the world of construction it’s refreshing to work with someone who values honesty and integrity. Sean takes pride in each and every home he builds. I look forward to our continued working relationship and can confidently recommend Living Stone Construction”. -Ken Wertheim, AIA

We highly recommend them, so if you have bad experiences in the past, call Sean and deal with a real pro.” – Marie Tanner, owner and Interior Designer
