Nehemiah Construction

Nehemiah Construction is a construction company in Monroe, GA, serving residential and commercial clients across Northeast Georgia. The licensed general contractor handles residential remodeling, commercial renovation, custom home building, and consulting, with projects ranging from kitchen and bathroom renovations in Walton County to commercial build-outs in Athens and custom homes along Lake Oconee. The company holds a rating of 4.80 from the customers who have reviewed it.

Owner Chanch Edwards, a licensed general contractor and licensed electrician and Monroe native, built the company to serve the communities he grew up in. The business is not a franchise and is headquartered locally. Combining the general contractor and electrician roles means fewer subcontractors, faster timelines, and one person accountable for each project. The company's name draws from the biblical builder who rebuilt Jerusalem's walls, and that integrity is applied to every job. Services span kitchens, bathrooms, basements, decks, full home renovations, commercial build-outs, tenant improvements, ground-up commercial construction, custom homes, and specialty work such as flooring, windows, doors, siding, and garages. Every project starts with a transparent proposal that accounts for every dollar, with no hidden fees or surprise invoices, and the team sets timelines and hits them. Custom home builds typically take 8 to 14 months from groundbreaking to final walkthrough, with the design and permitting phase adding 2 to 4 months. Kitchen remodels generally take 6 to 12 weeks, and bathroom remodels take 3 to 6 weeks. The company is a member of the NAHB, Athens Area HBA, Lake Oconee BA, and Home Builders Association of Georgia. Edwards resides in Loganville, Georgia, with his family.

The office sits on East Spring Street in Monroe, about two-tenths of a mile from the Monroe Fire Department, the Monroe Post Office, and Club Park, and roughly three-tenths of a mile from the East Church Street Historic District.

Nehemiah Construction has earned a positive rating from the customers who have reviewed it, with clients praising work on home projects, a commercial HVAC upgrade for a restaurant, and a kitchen renovation. The company is known for the accountability that comes from hiring a contractor who lives in the community and sees clients at the grocery store, at church, and at Friday night football.
