WELCOME TO NICHOLSON AND SUN
As our name acknowledges, our family company was formed to address our planet’s relationship with the Sun. We are not a building company that adds green features; we are a climate company that builds homes because we believe that’s where our talents can have the greatest impact in curbing climate change. We build from the foundation up, utilizing innovative techniques, carbon-conscious materials, and state-of-the-art, energy-saving technologies to create the best houses on the planet and for the planet.
Our commitment to our mission has led us to build MORE Net-Zero and Platinum-rated Green Built homes in Western North Carolina than any other builder. We’re proud to be part of a community of like-minded professionals. You can explore our certifications and those of others through the Green Built Alliance.
