They have a small team of employees who have been with the company nearly since its inception. Christina and Matthew took great care in naming their business; it's truly a family affair. Since the beginning, their children have cleaned job sites and unloaded materials. French Family Construction specializes in all aspects of home renovation. Christina loves designing kitchens and bathrooms and seeing a customer's vision come to life. Matthew enjoys framing decks and room additions, with tile work comes in as a close second. French Family Construction works closely with another veteran-owned business, Onnit Realty, as its preferred contractor. The French family enjoys being part of the Fayetteville community. Their work is widely recognized; they have been nominated for Fayetteville Observer's Readers' Choice Awards since the business began. This year, they were selected as one of the top three businesses in five categories: flooring, siding, roofing, windows and painting. 910-973-2693 | frenchfamilyconstructionllc.com 121 Nairn St, Fayetteville, NC 28311
