What Our Clients Say
Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Our experience working with Ross and his team at Assembly A+B has always been exceptional. From their beautiful design aesthetic to their unwavering, high quality execution in building your vision, they help create a beautiful home inside and out for their clients. We, at KERR Woodworking, have been lucky enough to work with them in building custom furniture and built-ins for a few of their projects, and because our aesthetic vision aligns so well with theirs, we always look forward to the next opportunity to work alongside them!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My partner and I just completed a home and artistic retreat in Black Mountain, NC with Assembly and moved in a couple months ago. I have nothing but great things to say about Ross, Brett, Leslie and their entire team. From the very beginning of the process, they were extremely professional, accommodating, and impeccable with their work. The design process was very smooth and inspiring, they really designed an incredible house that actually was way cooler than we thought we could afford with our budget. One of the things that really makes Ross & the Assembly team stand out is they not only designed amazing plans, but then very thoroughly estimated out what it would take to execute and then completed an on-timeline build while staying in the constraints of our budget. Many architects could design amazing houses, but to design a house and then actualize it within a constrained budget is incredible. The attention to detail along the way, and the consistent accountability they displayed was nothing short of amazing. Any issues during construction that came up were handled promptly, generously, and professionally. All of the subcontractors they enlisted were all impeccable, solid and kind, which is really really hard to find in the construction world. We absolutely love every detail of our home Assembly created for us, and I would recommend in a heartbeat the Assembly team to anyone looking to build a house and do it right.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Alex and I just finished a build with AssemblyAB, and we are so pleased we selected them to design and build our three bedroom home nestled in the woods of Western North Carolina. Ross designed a very well-thought-out home that gave us everything we wanted. It was a pleasure moving through the design phase with he and his associates. Once we started construction, Stephen came onboard as our project manager. We live out of state, and building a home long distance can be challenging. Fortunately, we could rely on Ross, Stephen, and their selected subcontractors to complete impeccable work. Stephen's approach was to ensure that anyone working on the house was able to produce top-notch work. He is passionate about following state of the art construction standards, and our final product is both solid and energy efficient as a result. My favorite part of our home is the obvious attention to detail everywhere you look and the quality of the finishes. As we move in, I am so proud of what we have achieved with Assembly. As I could not be happier with our build, I would highly recommend you consider AssemblyAB for your project. Thank you to Ross and his team for a great experience.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We just wrapped up construction on our brand new house with Ross and his team at Assembly AB. I kinda feel like I just got off of a roller coaster and I mean that in the most positive way! It was a lot of fun, and I want to go again. I absolutely love design and a creative project, so working alongside the Assembly team was really rewarding. It was exhilarating at times, and overall we’re very excited and honored about the house they built us. From the initial meetings, through the design, architecture, and construction phases, we felt really good about Ross and his team driving the project. We had great communication along the way. Stephen was our project manager and oversaw the day-to-day. It’s clear that Stephen knows quality and he isn’t afraid to make sure it’s done correctly. This is a second home, and we weren't able to be there every step of the way. My biggest concern was that we’d show up to the construction site and things would be shoddy, or incorrectly done–not once did that happen. Of course things happen, and it wasn’t always easy, but it’s a really nicely built house that’s energy efficient and well insulated, with lots of quality touches throughout. It's clear that Ross knows what he’s doing, and wants to build a quality reputation for his company in WNC. What’s even more impressive, is that he’s able to hold a team of architects, project managers, and subcontractors to that same standard. Thank you Ross, Stephen, and your entire team. -A+PPosted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Just moved into my new Assembly house and I could not be happier. The house is stunning - it’s so great to see it come to fruition. Working with Ross and his team from the design phase to moving in was a real pleasure. They have been super responsive to all the inevitable issues that arise in the building process and taken care of them promptly and fairly. The process took a little longer than I expected (and I had hoped) but that was due to the supply chain issues that everyone has faced the last couple years. I’m just so glad to finally be in my new home and feeling the house love big time! I would highly recommend Assembly to anyone looking to build in Asheville- especially if you want something unique and special - Ross is an incredible architect, and the build team executed his design flawlessly. Will share some pics after I finish unpacking.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We loved working with Ross - he built us the most beautiful home and every detail was perfect. Ross is a great designer and builds with sustainability in mind. Our house is green built and so, so quiet inside. Every detail of the design was considered - and Ross is patient and thorough. We highly recommend working with Ross.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We were highly satisfied with the entire process of having AA&B design and construct our ADU garage/apartment. They were helpful in solidifying our ideas into a realistic design. We wanted a two car garage with a small rental apartment above it to help pay for the project. We were pleasantly surprised that they were willing to take on a relatively small project. We weren’t sure if it could be done due to the challenges of our site. They were able to come up with creative solutions to each obstacle we encountered. Now we have a home for our cars, bicycles and motorcycle and a very happy tenant living in the apartment.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We worked with Ross to design and build our home in Asheville and we could not be happier with the results! He is a talented architect and he kept the build process on budget and on schedule, which is almost unheard of. He was great at working with us to arrive at a shared vision that was in keeping with our taste but also took advantage of his creativity as an architect!Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Ross is an exceptional architect, and his team gets the job done on budget and on schedule, which is exceptionally hard to find. He has recently been featured in Dwell magazine for his modern aesthetic-- it is truly one of a kind and he has elevated WNC's architectural place on the map considerably.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Last year the team at Assembly worked with us to develop a small but difficult piece of land in north Asheville. They were excellent! Able to express ideas clearly and think outside the box. Their innovative approach to the lot allowed us to move forward with the project and saved us money. I highly recommend them!Verified by TrustindexTrustindex verified badge is the Universal Symbol of Trust.
