Cooper Jones Construction hails themselves as a “boutique builder,” who specialize in building from the ground up, remodeling and/or creating custom spaces for homes and businesses. They are a very client led company that can- and do- create many custom spaces tailored specifically for each client’s purpose.
Cooper Jones was referred to our company and soon after gave us a call. They had a complex project located in White, GA and by the time we saw the plans we immediately knew we wanted to help. This project was unique in the fact that it was a basement and crawlspace combination. There was also a structural retaining wall for the backyard pool and a radius courtyard retaining wall for the driveway.
Upon completion of this project we asked Roger what he thought of the work we did, to which he replied, “You guys did a fantastic job!! The precision in which your company can layout the most crucial parts is really impressive and a huge asset for us.”
When Cooper was asked the same question, he replied, “You guys do great work! Your whole team really matches our company well in professionalism and the pride you take in the work you do. We are really a good team in that way.”
We agree with you Cooper, we really are a good team!

Gregory Levett Jr. of B Levett & Company, Inc. was born and raised in the funeral home business. Four generations of Levett’s have owned and operated one of the most successful funeral home organizations in the Atlanta area. While Gregory is very involved with the family business and serving his community, he also has an undeniable passion for building.
Gregory holds a degree in architecture and for a time worked with an architectural design firm. To expand his experience he also went to work for a construction company. By 2002, he was ready to start his own building company. Since then he has not only built many homes but has also constructed a large expansion for one of his family’s funeral home locations.
Gregory found our company while driving through an area of Avondale Estates where we were working. He noticed our jobsite sign and gave us a call regarding a basement that he had coming up.
After receiving his estimate and speaking with our senior estimator, James Armstrong, Gregory said, “You guys have made this whole process very easy, the drawing you provided of the foundation as well as suggestions for the design of the wall made it easier for me to visualize in my head. A lot of companies don’t do that and I was really impressed that you guys did.”
Once the basement was completed Gregory stated, “This project turned out exactly the way I hoped it would. It was on time, on budget and professionally managed from beginning to end. You can’t ask much more than that from a subcontractor. I was very pleased.”
Gregory’s last project was one of many that we hope to help him with in the future. It is a pleasure working with him.

The business side was easy for him given his education in Business Administration. However, the complexity and technicality that comes with residential construction and how each home is put together in a different way fascinated Aaron. Hands-on experience was how he learned the complex aspects of building new homes and restoring old ones.
Aaron came across our company while searching online. He sent plans to us and we got started right way. “It is difficult to find a foundation contractor who can handle precision and odd types of work, also one that uses efficient paperwork and scheduling procedures. Oftentimes, it is found that contractors are stretched too thin and can’t handle tricky work. That is not the case with you guys for sure,” Aaron stated.
The recent project we helped Aaron with was a floating addition, situated on top of columns. The foundation pads had to be precisely placed and helical piers were used due to bad soil which was unexpected.
When the project was finished, we asked Aaron what he thought of the completed work. To which he replied, “There was a lot of room for screw ups that would easily cost a lot of money to fix, but the whole project came off without a hitch. I was extremely happy with the timing, communication and execution of the work.”
We are glad to have helped, and look forward to working with Aaron and his team on many future projects.
