About us
The family behind Southern Pines.
Southern Pines is led by Mitch and Aly Trees, a family firm specializing in custom home builds, large-scale remodels, and design-driven renovations across Jefferson and Northeast Georgia. Mitch comes from a family history rooted in construction, and it shows in how he builds: on site from the first design conversation to the final walkthrough, honest about cost and timeline, and committed to doing it right, once, for good.
For the Trees family, every home is personal — designed around the way your family actually lives, and built the way they’d build their own.
Kind Words
"Southern Pines did an absolutely phenomenal job finishing my hunting lodge. They completed everything right on schedule, and the final price stuck exactly to the original estimate, with no surprise fees. Finding a contractor that delivers high-quality work while respecting your budget and timeline is rare."
Erin Jordan · Hunting Lodge Finish
"Southern Pines did a fantastic job on my basement remodel, back deck, clearing out some trees and finishing the landscape. My family and I now have a great place to relax and play year round. Mitch and the crews he uses were great to work with from start to finish."
Tyler Burge · Basement Remodel & Landscape
"My experience with Southern Pines has been exceptional. I had past building issues and terrible contractors, so I was skeptical, and I hit the jackpot. The process was smooth, the timeline on point, and I was totally blown away by the quality of the workmanship. Do not hesitate to hire this company."
