General Queries
What makes Laidlaw Homes different from rest?
We build in the communities we live in around Kannapolis and the greater Charlotte area, so we care about our reputation long after the job is done. You get one integrated team so there are no surprises on site or on your invoice.
Do you provide a warranty to support your work?
Yes. Every project comes with written warranty coverage.
For new homes, we include a one year warranty on workmanship and materials plus extended structural coverage, along with scheduled follow ups to catch and correct anything that needs attention.
Can you adapt your designs to fit different budgets?
We start by asking what you want to spend and then design the project around that. You receive a detailed, itemized estimate that shows where the money is going, along with options for adjusting scope, finishes, or phasing to keep the project in a comfortable range.
Client First. Always.
At Laidlaw Housing, the client comes first every time. Our processes are built from the ground up with your delivery and satisfaction in mind.
Communications, transparency, and meeting your expectations drive how we operate.
Initial Conversation
We meet on-site or virtually to learn your priorities, your budget, and your timeline expectations.
Concept and estimate
We sketch a preliminary floor plan and outline of the structure, then prepare a clear estimate so you can see how design choices, size, and specs affect overall cost before you commit.
Construction drawings and selections
We finalize construction documents, coordinate structural and mechanical engineering, and guide you through choosing materials and systems so design, function, and budget stay aligned.
Building excellence
Our crew manages permits, inspections, and brings your design to life. You receive regular updates and a detailed walk-through at completion.
Warranty backed satisfaction
Even after the final walkthrough, we stand behind the quality of our work with a full warranty and satisfaction guarantee.
