Our Team

Image


At Semper Fi, our team aims to restore faith (it's in our name!) in small, locally-owned building companies and the people who run them.

As a general contracting company focused on remodeling and renovating, we provide tailor-made experiences that new home builders cannot. We pride ourselves on reliability, integrity, and trustworthiness. Through our commitment and excellent communication, we foster strong relationships with the people we serve.

In 2010, we built our first home with our childhood mentor and it was then that we discovered our innate passion for building homes. Building that home and bonding with the homeowner during the project was ultimately the reason why we founded our company.

We were both raised in a service-oriented family. Chris’ father was a plumber and Jay’s mom and grandmother owned an antique shop in Black Mountain, North Carolina. Growing up in families like these taught us that the relationships we build with people are just as valuable as the services we provide.

Due to the lessons our family and childhood mentor taught us, as well as our passion for establishing client-builder relationships, we have specialized our focus on remodeling homes. Remodeling spaces versus building houses allows us to utilize our passion for improvement, as well as our desire to work closely with our clients throughout our unique process.
