About Us
Evergreen General Contracting is a full service construction firm based in Charlottesville, Virginia specializing in new residential construction & remodeling. Founded by Whit Graves and Scott Abbott in 2005, Evergreen has continued to grow, with large renovation and new construction projects in Albemarle County, Nelson County, and the City of Charlottesville.
The core of our business rests on our personal relationships with our clients. We build relationships with each project we undertake. We appreciate the process itself… from building a new home for one of our clients locating to the area, or renovating an existing home to make it more livable… building is what we love to do.
Our Mission
Evergreen strives to be a knowledgeable and determined partner in achieving our clients’ dream. In any type of project, our clients deserve a rewarding experience; one rooted in clear communication, well defined timelines, and sound building practice. We want to build or improve every house you live in for the rest of your life. Our past clients know this is more than than just a statement of purpose… it is how we do business.
Our Philosophy
We believe in keeping it simple. We work hard everyday. We strive to improve everyday. We appreciate our employees and thus treat them like we mean to keep them. We keep our word. We believe our customers come first. We undertake projects that fit our unique skillsets. We believe ‘green building’ is better building. We believe anything worth doing, is worth doing well. It’s that simple.
We haven’t had a better experience in building or remodeling. Having built three homes previously, we believe this experience with Evergreen was by far the best... Their honesty, integrity, and willingness to please the customer are what we admire.Bill & Jamie Heard - Nellysford, VANew Construction
