An award winning builder handcrafting your story.

We’re On Your Side

We are so glad you’re here! We’re guessing you’ve been down a long path of brainstorming and planning for your dream home for a while now.  Hours of collecting design ideas on Houzz and Pinterest, days spent touring neighborhoods, weekends visiting open houses and showhomes to see spaces that excite you, and months, if not years of financial planning.

Building a custom home is certainly one of the biggest commitments in a lifetime, and one that can seem overwhelming to most.  Maybe you’ve heard the horror stories about problems with builders, budgets spinning out of control, sites left half unfinished. We are here to ease those fears and guide you every step of the way and bring your dream home to life where you’ll spend years creating family memories.

WOW!!!! We are beyond honored to receive two NATIONAL awards at the 2024 Best in American Living™ Awards (BALA) by the National Association of Home Builders!

Not all windows are created equal… and neither is how they’re installed.

The problem most homeowners never see until it’s too late
windows that aren’t perfectly level
tight spaces that make installation difficult
and drywall returns that never quite look right

That’s where the right system changes everything

We’ve partnered with Pella Windows & Doors and the Pella Steady Set Installation System to solve a challenge builders have dealt with for years

Instead of fighting large format windows from the exterior
we can now set them from the inside
with precision
control
and confidence

But here’s where it really matters for you

Today’s homes are moving toward a cleaner more modern look
less trim
more drywall returns
perfect reveals

That only works if the window is set exactly right

Using the Steady Set clips combined with precise shimming
we create a perfectly centered window
and a seamless transition from drywall to frame

No waves
No uneven edges
No compromises

Just the kind of finish your home deserves

Because great design means nothing without great execution

If you’re building or renovating
this is the level of detail that separates a good home from a great one

Happy Easter from our family to yours! 

We live in a world that never slows down.
Always pushing. Always chasing. Always on.

And if we’re not careful we forget what all of it is for.

Today isn’t just another day.
It’s the most important day.

A reminder to step back.
To share time with family, friends or wherever you are in life.
To enjoy something simple. A good meal. A quiet moment. A reset.

To turn down the noise and remember what really matters.

Faith.
Gratitude.
Perspective.

He is risen.

And no matter where you are in life Jesus loves you and He’s always inviting you into something greater.

Blessings to you today.

Most pocket doors fail… and it’s not because of the door.

It’s the system behind the wall.

The hidden tracks, weak frames, and low quality hardware are the real villain. Over time doors start to rub, fall out of alignment, or worse come off track completely. What should be a beautiful, space saving feature turns into a daily frustration.

That’s where we step in.

As builders, it’s our responsibility to guide our homeowners toward products that don’t just look good on day one but perform for decades. That’s why we use Cavity Sliders systems.

These are not your typical pocket door frames. They are engineered metal systems with precision rollers, soft close technology, and structural rigidity that eliminates the common failures we see far too often.

Smooth operation. Quiet close. Long term durability.

When you invest in quality behind the walls, you protect the experience of the home for years to come.

Because in the end, our homeowner is the hero and they deserve a home that performs as beautifully as it looks.

🎥 In this video I walk through exactly why most pocket doors fail and how we solve it the right way.

 @cavitysliders — we appreciate companies who are raising the standard in residential construction.

🍸 Alright… this just got interesting.

We’re seeing more and more homeowners prioritize home bars and dedicated entertaining spaces. Not just for hosting, but for how they actually live day to day.

And the cool part is… no two are the same.

So now we’ve got four completely different vibes:

Bar 1 is a full blown bar. No holding back on this one.
Bar 2 feels clean and subtle. Almost hidden.
Bar 3 is bright and built for hosting.
Bar 4 has that moody, speakeasy feel.

Be honest…

Which one are you picking?

Drop 1, 2, 3, or 4 in the comments.

And more importantly… which one are you inviting your friends over to this weekend?

Most homes leak… and homeowners don’t even know it.

Not just air.
Not just energy.

We’re talking about the critical connection where your framing meets the foundation… one of the most overlooked failure points in residential construction.

If this isn’t sealed properly, here’s what happens
Air infiltration that destroys efficiency
Moisture intrusion over time
And yes… bugs and pests finding their way inside

That’s the problem.

Here’s how we solve it 👇

At Longo Custom Builders, we go beyond standard practices by integrating a full system approach:

@zipsystems sheathing with ZIP tape and liquid flash
SIKA 430 Fentrim tape at critical transitions
And an added continuous protection layer at the slab and foundation connection

This isn’t just about building a house
This is about building a tight, high-performance envelope that protects your investment for decades

Our clients don’t just get a beautiful home
They get peace of mind knowing it was done right the first time

If you’re building or renovating and your builder isn’t talking about air sealing at this level… you should be asking why

Follow along as we show what goes into building at the next level

One of the most meaningful milestones in building a home happens long before the paint, cabinets, or furniture ever arrive.

It happens at framing.

This is the moment when a house truly begins to take shape. You can finally walk the rooms, feel the space, and see the vision becoming real.

But one of our favorite traditions is what we call a Framing Party.

We invite the homeowners to bring their family and close friends to the jobsite. We provide the markers, some food, and a chance to celebrate the progress together.

Then something really special happens.

Everyone writes messages, prayers, scripture, and well wishes directly on the framing of the home.

Those words will be sealed behind the drywall and live inside the home forever.

Long after the construction is finished, those blessings remain part of the foundation of the home.

To us, building a home is about more than materials and craftsmanship. It is about creating a place where memories, faith, family, and community live together.

If you are building or renovating a home, this is one tradition we believe every family should experience.

A home should begin with gratitude, blessing, and celebration.

The framing is quiet.

Then suddenly…
a team of craftsmen slides in something massive.

Not just glass.
Not just steel.
But the moment this home begins to breathe.

At Orchard Lake, we are installing a monster steel and glass window wall that will anchor the rear of this home overlooking the pool and the lake.

This is not decoration.
This is architecture creating connection.

From the family room with exposed wood beams, brick and cast stone fireplace, and white oak floors…
you will see water.
You will see sky.
You will feel nature.

And at the center of the home?
A courtyard wrapped in steel and glass.
A modern fishbowl effect where every hallway, every turn, every gathering space connects visually through unit to unit to unit — always pulling your eye back outside.

That is intentional design.

That is performance framing meeting precision installation.

That is what happens when you plan ahead and execute with craftsmen who care.

We do not just build homes.
We build experiences.

And this one is going to be epic.

Most homes don’t look like Swiss cheese by accident.

They look that way because someone said,
“Don’t worry about it. We’ll figure it out later.”

That mindset costs time.
It costs money.
And it costs quality.

At #OrchardLake, we believe in something different.

We believe preparation makes the subcontractor the hero.

When the right information is clearly laid out…
When plans are accessible and coordinated…
When layout is intentional…

Our trades can install it right the first time.

No moving wires.
No cutting open walls.
No chaos.

The result?

• Fewer callbacks
• Faster production
• Better margins for our trades
• A flawless finish for our client

For 26 years, we have believed that doing it right the first time reduces chaos, increases efficiency, and protects the client experience.

That is how you build a reputation.

This home will be available early this summer in Vinings, Georgia.
Private tours are now available by request.

If you are looking for a one of a kind lake property in Cobb County, just minutes from Buckhead without the Buckhead taxes, send me a DM and we will get you on the calendar.

Quality is job number one. Always.
