Brannock Enterprises is a Class A General Building Contractor firm located in Amissville, Virginia. It is owned and operated by Guy Brannock. He has been remodeling and building homes in Northern Virginia and the surrounding areas since 1984.

Guy became interested in wood carving, violin, and guitar repairs in his early teens. During his computer programming studies at James Madison University, he segued his carpentry interest  by immersing himself in construction projects during the summers on historical renovations and new home building. His early mentors included several of Fairfax and Fauquier County’s well-respected home builders.

After college, Guy realized that building and construction was his true passion. He established Brannock Enterprises. The business was founded on two fundamental principles: 1) that listening to his clients' needs and dreams is the first step in construction, and 2) communication throughout the process is key to ensuring a great outcome.

Besides the creative approach Guy brings to each project, Brannock Enterprises embraces the analytical side of the business: fully transparent, “open book” accounting is provided to all clients with all line items identified, including profit and overhead. This allows his clients to participate in value engineering throughout the process.  Weekly reports summarize completed phases and outline future goals and track crucial information.

Please do not hesitate to call us for a free consultation for your remodeling or new home construction project!

As a long-time landowner and farmer in Rappahannock County I understand the special needs and desires of those interested in buying or selling agricultural land in our region. As a former city dweller, I also appreciate the various amenities (or lack thereof) that attracts city folks to our area as weekenders, retirees, or transplants. In fact, every six months or so, I put together a short public seminar in a central location in Washington, DC to answer questions city dwellers might have about taking the plunge into country living. Over 20 years of experience in local real estate has honed my ability to find the best deal, so whether you're looking for a cozy country cottage, a rustic cabin, a grand estate, working farm or vineyard, or tidy village house, I can help you find the perfect Rappahannock property!
