My wife and I took the plunge to build a house, even after we had heard horror stories from others about their troubles when building. Evidently, the others didn't use a builder like Chris Shore of Hidden Oaks Custom Homes!
Chris walked us through every step from our planning stage to completion of our new home. He was always quick to respond when we had questions. AND we had plenty! Chris offered advice along the way and led us in the right direction on several changes that we made to our original plan. He offered ideas on updates that made our house more of our style than the original plan.
I highly recommend Hidden Oaks Custom
Homes to anyone looking for an honest, reliable builder who will listen to what you want and try to make all of what you wish for, a reality.

Chris Shore and Hidden Oaks is a highly professional and high quality custom home builder. As the developer for a number of communities, Hidden Oaks continues to be a trusted partner for referrals to our customers. Hidden Oaks also constructs developers own buildings based on our experience with Hidden Oaks. As CEO of American Land Holdings development, I was always trained to stay on project and oversee. Chris Shore, owner of Hidden Oaks has the same philosophy. It’s good business, and great practices for custom home customers.

Tammy Garber
I have known this builder for 15-20 years. He is the real deal, does a great job and stands behind his work. He is very easy to work with and he will make you his priority! His mother was a builder and he grew up in the industry so it comes second nature to him. He has a great eye for design options and knows how to bring them to life. One of the things I like most about working with him is that he is on the job site during the build. He maintains great relationships with his subs and they respect him and work hard for him.
Daniel Patton
Hidden Oaks was awesome to work with. Chris Shore obviously comes from a family of builders. His experience and attention to detail was really important to me and this was a problem with our last builder, but thankfully not with Chris. Hidden Oaks Custom Homes come highly recommended.
Dawn Cramer
We highly recommend Hidden Oaks Custom Homes. Chris Shore is very professional and timely. We moved to South Carolina from the Midwest due to a job transfer. Chris kept us informed on every design decision and sent photographs regularly. Chris kept us included throughout the entire process. This was greatly appreciated since we were building a new home from out of state. Chris built us our “dream home”, but if we ever leave this home, we would not hesitate to have Hidden Oaks build us another home.
Jacob Shore
My experience with using Hidden Oaks as my builder was an amazing journey. Chris was a pleasure to work with. His knowledge and expertise made the whole thing a breeze. He really listen to what we wanted, and he gave us other recommendations that would complement what we had in mind. I highly recommend Hidden Oaks to anyone who’s interested in building a new home!

We enjoyed working with Chris Shore on two projects. He was always professional & conscientious. Had a good working relationship with his subs, and required quality work from all of them. He kept us up to date on schedules.

I can't speak highly enough about Chris's professionalism. It was his professionalism and willingness to jump in despite no commitment on our end that drew us to him. He worked with our draftsman to find efficiencies in the design, worked with the architectural review board to get a conditional approval. Unfortunately for us the state of things resulted in us hitting the pause button on starting construction. Chris was very understanding and we will continue the relationship when the time is right for us to resume the build. He is a special guy and we look forward to working with him soon!

Chris Shore and his Hidden Oaks construction team has done a fantastic job with our new home.
My wife and I moved cross country from Wisconsin to South Carolina. Chris' communication during the entire process was nothing short of stellar. It was a great experience working with Chris. He continuously asked questions and provided suggestions and ways to save money and still get what we wanted. On a periodic basis he would send us photographs of the progress he was making.
Chris included seen and unseen components to the build to put the house on another level. He added air conditioning lines to the bonus room so we could finish that space on our own time. He added shiplap to the fireplace, vaulted our back covered patio ceiling, applied spray foam insulation inside the exterior walls and celling of the bonus room, and built a custom vent hood for us. The list goes on but there were a lot of details completed and none of them were lost on us.
We couldn't be more pleased with our new home and the entire process it took to get here.
