About Precision
A Family-Owned Builder Rooted in Pickens County
At Precision Custom Home Builders, we don't build subdivisions — we build your home. Nestled in the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains, Pickens County offers the kind of mountain beauty and small-town character that deserves a home built with intention. Every floor plan, every material selection, and every finish detail is designed around your family, your property, and the way you want to live.
Founded in 2005 by Dan Ellsworth, Precision has completed over 250 custom homes across North Georgia. Pickens County is one of our most active build areas — from mountain estates in Bent Tree to custom homes on private acreage along GA-515. We know the terrain, the permitting process, and the communities here because we've been building in them for nearly two decades. Read what our clients have to say.
Whether you're building on a wooded ridgeline near Jasper, a scenic lot in Talking Rock, or a gated community site in Bent Tree, we bring the same commitment: transparent communication, skilled craftsmanship, and a finished home that exceeds your expectations.

Yes. If you haven't purchased land yet, we evaluate properties you're considering and connect you with a local real estate agent who specializes in buildable lots throughout Pickens County — including Jasper, Talking Rock, Nelson, Tate, and Marble Hill.
