You simply couldn't ask for a better contractor than Aaron with Yellow Creek Enterprises. Aaron goes above and beyond to ensure his clients' needs are not only met—but exceeded—with complete satisfaction. He is exceptionally skilled in his craft, but what truly sets him apart is his character. He is, without question, one of the most genuine, honest, and integrity-driven individuals I've ever encountered. He doesn't just go the extra mile for his clients—he shows up for anyone in need. Five stars doesn't even begin to do him justice. And let's talk about patience: Aaron has the patience of Job. My situation involved multiple entities—two insurance companies and an HOA that partially holds the policy. I can't imagine another contractor who would have stayed, negotiated with all parties, and continued to advocate—not for his own benefit, but to make sure the job was done right. Even when it wasn't clear if he'd be awarded the contract, he made it known that what mattered most was the outcome. In his words, "As long as the job is completed correctly, that's what matters." That's not just professionalism—that's rare, unwavering integrity. If you're looking for someone who brings mastery, heart, and principles to every job—look no further. Aaron Rugg is the contractor you hope to find… and the kind of human being the world could use more of.

Aaron remodeled my entire flood house in New Bern and did a great job! Floors, windows, walls, plumbing, electrical, HVAC… did each part professionally and at a great price. Highly recommended company.

Total roof, rebuild fireplace and repair porch. Prompt, courteous, professional, budget friendly. I had just a couple of spots of drywall repair to be done and he jumped right in and was no charge. He goes over and above. His goal is something we don't see much of this day we live: integrity and his name means everything. Aaron is a man of God. You will not regret any size project that you entrust to Aaron Rugg of Yellow Creek Enterprises, LLC.

I needed to have new vinyl placed on my kitchen counters to redo a major DIY fail. I wanted someone to do the most difficult areas, such as the island and sink, and I would do the rest myself. I chose Yellow Creek Enterprises. Aaron was more than happy to do the difficult area, and helped me understand what I needed to do when I started the rest of the counters myself. However, I was so impressed with the finished product, I asked if he could do the rest, and he came outside of normal hours to accommodate me. I am very happy with how all the counters look now. He even explained how to fix my one sink, which had a leak, and installed a soap dispenser for me without hesitation. Aaron was very professional, friendly, and worked with my schedule. I would definitely recommend this company for others.

We are a community that is remodeling multiple homes and using Aaron at Yellow Creek. He is a very skilled and sharp businessman (ESP for his age!). The guys that work for him are very respectable (yes ma'am / no ma'am), work very hard, clean up behind the job, and so far I haven't found anything they can't do! We love them and hope to do business with them for years to come!

I can't say enough good things about Yellow Creek Enterprises and the owner Aaron Rugg. He installed drywall throughout a house we gutted including the ceiling. He was always there when he said he would be. He went above and beyond to do the best job possible and that's saying a lot because I am picky! He offered good solutions to any question I asked or request I had. He is very honest and I think he would clearly say if there was something he couldn't do. I trust Aaron and will use him again anytime I need work done. Also, to top it off, his prices were reasonable compared to some I got estimates from. Aaron is a win win!
