How AEI Construction

Builds Custom Homes The Right Way

We started AEI Construction because we were tired of seeing homeowners get burned by contractors who took shortcuts and disappeared when problems showed up. We knew there had to be a better way to build custom homes in Tennessee—one that puts quality and transparency first.

Here's how we do things:

The AEI Process

1. Your Vision Becomes Reality

Whether you have plans ready or you're starting from scratch, we guide you through the entire design process. We work with your architects or we can connect you with our longtime team to bring your ideas to life.

2. Transparent Pricing

No surprises. No hidden costs. We give you detailed, to-the-penny pricing so you know exactly what you're paying for. The price we quote at the beginning is the price you pay at the end—unless you choose to change something.

3. Hand-Picked Subcontractors

We trust our electricians, plumbers, and specialty contractors aren't just the cheapest bids we could find. They're craftsmen we trust enough to work on our own homes. Quality subs cost a little more upfront, but they save you thousands in repairs later.

4. On-Time, On-Schedule Delivery

We build buffer time into our schedules because we know delays happen. But we also show up every day, keep the job site moving, and communicate with you constantly. Your timeline matters to us.

5. A Project Manager Who Actually Shows Up

Beau will be on your job site almost daily, making sure work stays on track, quality stays high, and any small issues get handled before they become big problems. You'll have a direct line to someone who knows your project inside and out.

6. Warranty-Backed Craftsmanship

We stand behind our work. If there's ever an issue with our craftsmanship, we'll come back and fix it—free of charge. And if there's a materials issue, we'll help you navigate warranties and find the most cost-effective solution.

Some Recent Projects | Franklin

We started AEI Construction because we were tired of seeing homeowners get burned by contractors who took shortcuts and disappeared when problems showed up. We knew there had to be a better way to build custom homes in Tennessee—one that puts quality and transparency first.

"This company managed the completion of two complex home repairs and a full remodel of my upstairs including the addition of a bathroom and kitchenette. The work was beautiful. They are professional, honest, responsive, and knowledgeable. They completed all three projects on time and in budget. Great company. I won’t be using anyone else."

FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does a custom home build take from start to finish?

The timeline really depends on you and your vision. The planning phase typically takes 2-3 months, but that's totally customer-driven. If you want to move faster, we can work with that. If you want to take your time selecting finishes and details, that's fine too. We'll guide you through the whole process at whatever pace works for your family. The actual construction timeline varies based on the size and complexity of your home, but we'll give you a realistic schedule upfront and stick to it.

What areas do you serve in Middle Tennessee?

We build custom homes and handle remodeling projects throughout Middle Tennessee, including Columbia, Mount Pleasant, Spring Hill, and the surrounding Maury and Williamson County areas. If you're not sure whether we serve your area, just reach out. We'd be happy to discuss your project location.

What happens if something goes wrong during or after construction?

Issues happen on every job site – it's just the reality of construction. That's why we build buffer time into our plans and communicate openly throughout the process. If there's a craftsmanship issue, we take full responsibility and fix it. If it's a materials issue, we'll work through replacement options while minimizing any unexpected costs or delays. Plus, we warranty our work, so if you discover any problems after the build, we'll come back and make it right at no charge.

How much does it cost to build a custom home with AEI?

We believe in transparent, itemized pricing – no surprises or hidden costs. Every project is different, so we can't give you a one-size-fits-all number. We start with a rough square footage estimate, then work with you to develop a detailed, to-the-penny plan based on your specific needs and vision. We're not the cheapest option out there, and we're upfront about that. Our focus is on quality craftsmanship with hand-picked subcontractors and materials experts. You're paying for work that's done right the first time.

Do I need to have architectural plans before contacting you?

Nope, not at all. We can help you through the entire process, whether you're starting from scratch or already have detailed plans. We work with architects and designers, or we can step in as your design specialist if you need that support. The first step is just reaching out so we can understand your vision and talk through where you are in the process. From there, we'll guide you through each phase – from capturing your dream on paper to making it a reality.
