New house construction

Mark Wilsey is the most unprofessional and dishonest person I have ever dealt with. He convinces you what a great job he will do for you with his narcissistic personality. Then he does not follow through on anything. Stay clear of him. He will Rob you blind.

Custom Home Build

We recently embarked on a project with Mark Wilsey, of Wilsey Homes, Inc., to build our home.

Before making the decision to go ahead with Mark, we toured a high-end home he is currently building. The house was sheathed and the roof was on but all the framing inside was still exposed. This enabled us to see that good clear lumber had been used, and that the studs were straight, plumb and secure. We spoke with vendors and subcontractors working on the home. We got the same response from all - that they had been working with Mark for many years, and that he pays them on time and as expected. We have continued to visit this home site over the last few months and can see that work is proceeding smoothly.

We have found Mark to be knowledgeable and patient, answering our many questions without complaint. When we call him he answers his phone, or returns the call in a timely manner. Same with texts.

We will post an update as we get further along in the process, but we are confident that Mark will build us a beautiful custom home.

Build home

$450,000

658 Byrnes Way S.E.....I don't have enough space here to say what I would like. He is not trustworthy. Took 405,000.
Of ours and didn't pay for his employees or anything it took to build the house, starting from the foundation. My husband had to be on site everyday to oversee what was happening. There were a few employees that were very good but we're not being paid. Wilsey tried a lot of shortcuts, because we couldn't order the things we wanted because he owed so many people they wouldn't give him credit. We had to finish the house ourselves, the bank had to pay some of the employees the remainder of the 450,000. and we went through a lot of court dates to remove Leon's on the house.Watch his buddy Prince electric too. They got paid by us not Wilsey...is this how it goes? Maybe he once was good but NO MORE! Nightmare.
He filed bankruptcy to get out of it and changed business name.

Before you Hire

Here are some rules, regulations, and laws governing general contractors in North Carolina:

Does Wilsey Mark Edward carry a valid contracting license?

How important is contractor licensing in North Carolina?

Your liability risk when hiring Wilsey Mark Edward

Financial recourse when hiring Wilsey Mark Edward

Contractors in North Carolina do not have to obtain a surety bond to perform work on residential properties. Homeowners have financial recourse in North Carolina through The Homeowners Recovery Fund, which provides assistance to eligible North Carolina homeowners who have suffered a financial loss caused by the dishonest or incompetent conduct of a licensed general contractor.

What else should I know before hiring Wilsey Mark Edward

Licensed contractors must furnish proof of financial responsibility to obtain a limited, intermediate, or unlimited license according to a company's working capital. Working capital is current assets minus current liabilities.

How is the BuildZoom score calculated?

The BuildZoom score is based on a number of factors including the contractor's license status, insurance status, verified work history, standing with local consumer interest groups, verified reviews from other BuildZoom users and self-reported feedback from the contractor.

Why you should hire through BuildZoom

When it comes to major construction work or even minor alterations to your home, hiring the wrong contractor could result in incomplete or defective work. You may even find yourself dealing with huge liability claims. BuildZoom does the homework for you and helps you hire the right contractor.

You should get several bids before hiring a contractor

Before hiring a contractor in North Carolina, be sure to get at least 3 detailed bids. Quality contractors will take the time to explain their budget proposal, and help guide you through the estimate process. Be wary of an abnormally low bid, they are not worth the risk. These underpriced projects often do not end well for the homeowner, choose a contractor you trust and can clearly communicate with.
