Banks Channel Building Company

Jimmy Doster built our home in Landfall in 2013, next month (September 2020) will be seven years we have been in the home. If we were to build another home tomorrow, I would not bother conducting the contractor interviews I did when we built this home, I would go directly to Banks Channel Building and begin the process. Jimmy built us a very high quality home and we are very pleased. His sub-contractors are the best in Southeastern NC and have worked with him for many, many years. I happened to be at our house during construction as the Framing Inspector from the county just completed his rough framing inspection. I ask him how it looked, and he replied - "Perfect, these framers are the best in the county and get it right every time". Several days after Hurricane Florence hit Wilmington

Hopefully, this review will save you from the horrible mistake we made by hiring Jimmy Doster of Banks Channel Building (formerly Doster Building Co.). We are currently trying to repair the devastation. Rain permeated our house through windows and walls. Our wood floors are damaged. Some of our windows need to be reinstalled or replaced. Doster’s trim carpenters mangled window trim so badly that some of our windows leak water into our home rather than repel it. We are not alone. We are friendly with other former Doster clients that have brought legal action against him. For the past 18 months, we have attempted to contact Mr. Doster to request construction information and photographs. We have asked him to repair the damage. For 18 months, he has ignored our voicemails, emails and

Jimmy Doster built our beautiful home in Landfall, Wilmington, NC. in 2004. We chose him as our builder because of the exceptional floor plan, but mostly because of the quality of construction we saw in many homes he had built. We were extremely pleased with Jimmy’s keen attention to detail, the quality of work of all his sub contractors and his close supervision and coordination of all construction to deliver our finished home on schedule. He communicated to us daily and responded promply to our calls, addressing concerns and making changes , meeting our needs and Landfall’s governing committe’s demands in an always cordial and professional manner. While the house was under warranty, whether it was minor settling cracks or a small leak, Jimmy treated it with immediate attention, no quest

Jimmy Doster built an exceptional home for me. I first encountered Jimmy's expertise when he did some remodeling on my old home. He was recommended by one of his subcontractors who supplies glass and hardware to all the local builders. That home burned in 2013 and I engaged Jimmy to do my rebuild. Not only did he build the new home but also he assisted me in justifying the costs to the insurance company. My home has withstood several hurricanes with no damage. Each time Jimmy has called me to inquire about damage. He uses the best artisans in every category. Because there are only a few in the Wilmington area qualified to work on luxury homes the time necessary to complete the work may be longer than spec homes. I wanted to use an architect for design, Cothran Harris and a decorator

Jimmy Doster (Banks Channel Building Company) built my family home. I find that some folks don't understand that building a custom home is a process; one that requires patience and communication on both sides. Some folks seem to think that building a custom home should be like going to their car dealership to take delivery of a new car. My family's experience working with Jimmy was exemplary. Our build had challenges, as all do. We worked through those challenges with Jimmy, who always maintained clear and reasonable communications and came up with solutions, not excuses. My home has now seen my kids grow up, and for that we owe Jimmy a huge thanks. If you're looking for a custom build with absolutely no hiccups or problems of any kind, stop. Doesn't exist.
