I'm Ryan Carey. I live in Clarkesville. When you hire me, you get a licensed GC at every site visit — not a project manager, not a sub running their own timeline. Tell me about your project and see your real budget estimate in 90 seconds.
I'm a licensed GA general contractor ((license # here)) based in Clarkesville. Same hands on every job. I built the estimator you just filled out from years of real project history because the alternative is wasting an hour of your life on a sales call to find out you're already $40k over budget. Here's what happens after you click.
I built this from years of real Habersham, Hall, and Rabun project history. Tell me the truth on scope and size and the number you see by question seven is the number I'd give you on a walk-through.
Not my crew, not a call center, not an assistant. I read every inquiry on my phone — usually inside the hour if you submit before 5p, always within 24 hours.
I open with the concern you flagged — budget, timeline, finishes, living through it — and walk you through the estimate, how I got there, and the next two or three decisions you actually need to make.
If your project's anywhere in North Georgia I drive to it on my own time. No fee, no obligation, no upsell to a designer-of-the-week. You get me, my measuring tape, and a real number.
Prefer to skip the form? Or scroll back up to it. Either way, you're talking to me — not an assistant.

Residential: kitchens, baths, additions, sunrooms, ADUs, garage conversions. Commercial: offices, restaurants, retail, medical. All under one license, one schedule, and one phone number — mine.

Whole-home transformations I run end-to-end — floor plan, plumbing, electrical, finishes. One crew, one schedule, one decisions log.
Custom cabinetry, countertops, and layouts — built for North Georgia humidity and the way you actually cook. Demo to final finish under one contract.
Walk-in showers, custom vanities, modern fixtures. Waterproofed past code so the tile in front lasts as long as the structure behind it.
Square footage that matches your existing house — same siding, same roofline, no “bolted-on” tell. Permits + structural engineering handled.
Detached ADUs and attached in-law suites for multi-gen living. I work the current zoning rules into the design instead of fighting permits later.
Convert garage to bedroom, office, gym, or ADU. Slab moisture barrier, exterior matching, and code-compliant permits done right.
Outdoor kitchens, decks, fire features, hardscape, and lighting — spec'd for GA humidity from day one. Marine-grade stainless, properly vented.
Polycarbonate and four-season glass sunrooms — 20–50% less than a traditional addition, ~3 weeks on-site work.
Office, retail, restaurant, and medical build-outs. Full-scale commercial build-outs and inspections are core to what RCC does.
Open-plan offices, conference rooms, hybrid-work redesigns, and tenant improvements. Acoustics designed in at framing, not after.
Full restaurant build-outs — kitchens with hood + suppression, bars, dining rooms, ADA restrooms. Open-by-date scheduling.
Exam rooms, dental ops, lead-shielded imaging, state-permitted clinics. Healthcare build-out permitting is a known pattern for RCC.
Retail interiors, fitting rooms, cash-wraps, ADA-compliant storefronts. Open-by-date scheduling with the inspection cycle planned in.
I live in Clarkesville, so most of North Georgia is a 20–45 minute drive from my driveway. Pick your city below — if it's on the list, the walk-through is on me. Licensed statewide ((license # here)), rooted right here.
Don't see your community? Ask me directly — I can usually help if your project sits in an adjacent zip.
Five categories. Real homes in Clarkesville, Gainesville, Toccoa, Dahlonega, and Clayton. If something below looks close to your project, the form turns it into a real budget estimate in 90 seconds.

Start your projectEvery guide below is written from a real Northeast Georgia jobsite. No fluff, no SEO filler — the same advice I give clients before they sign anything.
TI vs shell build-out for North Georgia commercial projects — scope, cost, and decision framework explained.
Real 2026 Gainesville retail TI cost by tier — basic refresh, standard build-out, premium concept — and the four cost drivers.
ADA 2010 Standards for GA storefronts — what's required, what triggers an audit, and where commercial owners get caught.
What a North Georgia restaurant build-out actually takes — health department, hood spec, grease trap, ADA — broken into phase-by-phase timeline.
Medical office build-out in Gainesville requires state healthcare plan review on top of building permits. RCC's commercial build-out experience fits the spec.
Georgia HB 1239 (2026) preempts some local ADU zoning — but HOA covenants still apply. Here's what actually changed.
Free walk-through. Honest estimate. No pressure. I read every inquiry myself — you'll usually hear back the same day, always within 24 hours.
