Dave Calverley
President
Dave founded Elevate Building Company in 2017 after two decades managing commercial and residential construction projects. A former US Army paratrooper with the 82nd Airborne, he runs every schedule, budget, and jobsite with that same discipline. His clients hold one accountable point of contact from the first meeting to the final walkthrough.
Lindsey Calverley
Vice President
Lindsey's background in commercial real estate gives owners a clear-eyed read on the value of what they're building. A North Carolina real estate licensee and NC State graduate, she keeps every project grounded in what it will be worth, not just what it will cost.
- Integrity
- Done right the first time, every time. Your interests come first from pre-construction to punch list.
- Accountability
- One point of contact, answerable for every subcontractor, supplier, and schedule.
- Efficiency
- Disciplined process and no wasted motion. That's how budgets and timelines hold.
“By far some of the most gorgeous custom homes I have seen … none with the honesty, integrity, and craftsmanship that Dave and his team put into each and every home they create.”
