“After I designed The Lens Lodge I needed someone creative enough to help me bring it to life. Robert was that guy! His experience building not just houses but a wide range of other amazing things lets him think outside of the box and help bring dreams to life.”

- Matthew FitzPatrick

"We moved into our "forever" home in Ellijay, GA in August 2024. After researching and meeting with several builders in the area, we selected Ellijay Custom Homes. Owner Robert Dobbs has over 50 years of experience and has been building in Ellijay and surrounding since 1995. He is very knowledgeable, very hands-on, great communication, onsite almost daily, does what he says he's going to do when he says he's going to do it. Robert predicted that it would take around 12 months to complete our project - we broke ground on August 8, 2023 and moved in on August 23, 2024. With any custom build, issues inevitably arise - Robert always took care of them promptly and to our satisfaction. Can't ask for more than that - we highly recommend Ellijay Custom Homes."

- RP Long

"My wife and I engaged Robert Dobbs to build our dream house. It was a custom rustic style home around 6,000 ft. Mr. Dobbs estimated around a year to complete a project of this size. It was completed at a little over a year due to some weather delays. Mr. Dobbs has an eye for detail and has great ideas developed over his many years in the business. There were many design elements in the interior that we did not plan for at the outset. We made decisions for them when the time came. Mr. Dobbs contributed to these decision and they turned out better than expected. One of the show pieces is our modified spiral stair case that matches the rest of the house’s motif. Everyone that sees our home compliments the detail and quality of the construction. I recommend Mr. Dobbs to everyone I encounter looking for a custom builder."

- Lee Kent

"Robert was the general contractor on a very extensive kitchen remodeling project that we undertook last year. He was responsible for the initial job measurements, cabinet inventory, assemblage and installation, coordination of the various trades (plumbing, mechanical and electrical), permitting and inspections, and final installation of many of the appliances. Our remodel couldn't have been any smoother and Robert's meticulous attention to details and craftsmanship was absolutely outstanding. Not only would I recommend him for his expertise and knowledge, but from our experiences with him, Robert has become a trusted friend of our family and we look forward to working with him on future remodeling work."
