Our Story

Getting Started in Home Building

Andy Lee began his journey in home building inspired by his father's background as a local real estate developer. Initially drawn to the industry for the joy of creating something lasting, he quickly developed a passion for building exceptional homes that families would cherish.

Honing Expertise Nationally

Andy expanded his professional experience working with prominent national builders such as Toll Brothers, acquiring a deep understanding of systematic project management and best practices. This national-level experience shaped his commitment to structured processes and high-quality results.

Launch of Grace Alon Builders

Andy founded Grace Alon Builders after relocating to the Roanoke region to be closer to family and his deep-rooted connections at Smith Mountain Lake. Named thoughtfully after Andy and Donna’s children — Sara Grace, Alex, and Mason — Grace Alon Builders emerged as a high-end builder offering personalized design-build services to discerning homeowners.

Our Design-Build Process

1 | Start the Conversation
We begin with a discovery call or in-person meeting to understand your goals, lifestyle, and investment level. Whether you own land or are just getting started, this step helps us align on expectations and determine if we're the right fit. You'll gain insight into what’s possible and how we guide you from concept to construction.
2 | Design and Plan with Purpose
Through a structured pre-construction agreement, we collaborate to develop your home’s design, make early selections, and provide a realistic, fixed-price proposal. This approach eliminates costly surprises and keeps the process on track. You’ll walk away with detailed plans and confidence in the final investment before we break ground.
3 | Build with Confidence
Once designs and pricing are approved, we move into construction. You’ll stay informed through regular updates and BuilderTrend access, while our team manages every detail on site. The result is a well-built, thoughtfully designed home delivered with care and precision.
