W. S. Carnes has spent a lifetime making dreams come true.
Throughout the last 45 years, Mr. Carnes and his family have built
thousands of homes each one hand-crafted to the specifications of
satisfied homeowners. W. S. Carnes, Inc. is best known as a custom
home builder but also develops and builds apartments, shopping centers,
banks and planned communities. His heavy community involvement
throughout the years in Chesterfield County has given him a greater
insight than most builders in how things are accomplished. This
insight has helped him with the start up of two different community banks
in the last 20 years. His background and experience as chairman of
the board of the 70 million dollar Peoples Bank of Virginia has provided
an added dimension to his custom building and development field.
Mr. Carnes believes strongly in quality construction.
"Quality construction and happy customers mean repeat business and
referrals. This also contributes to a builder's
longevity." The company is truly a family
affair with Mr. Carnes' two sons, Paul and John, and daughter,
Teri, taking major roles in the planning construction and marketing of the
company. Careful attention is addressed to every detail of building
from floor plan to floor covering. The high caliber
of construction is maintained at the company through the help of his
family, as well as by employing full-time painters, carpenters, and
plumbers. "If they are not on payroll, they are subcontractors that
I have worked with in some cases for over 30 years."
