You're not hiring a company. You're hiring Jason.
On a build this size you'll spend more than a year with your builder. It should be someone who runs the job himself and stays with it — and who's still standing behind the house a decade after the keys change hands.
From custom cars to custom homes.
Jason came to homebuilding the way the best builders often do — through a craftsman's obsession with how things are made. Before JP Carducci Inc., that obsession lived under the hood: custom cars, built to a standard most people never bother with. Homes were the natural next canvas, only with far more at stake.
He's been building on the Emerald Coast since 2004. Today he runs every project himself — one point of contact from the first lot walk to the day you get the keys. No account managers, no getting handed off to a super you never met. When you build with JP Carducci, you build with Jason.
But no one builds a house alone. What makes one accountable builder work is the crew standing behind him — and that's something Jason has spent two decades getting right.
One builder. The whole build.

01
He runs every job
Jason is on your project start to finish — the person who quotes it is the person who builds it, and the one you'll work with the whole way through.
-
02
Built for permanence
ICF construction offered on any build, impact-rated openings, engineered drawings — homes specified to stand up to a named storm, not just pass inspection.
-
03
Nothing hidden
Jason filmed years of his builds — down to what's behind the drywall. The series has since wrapped, but the footage is still up, so you can see his standards before you ever call.
The people behind your build.
Jason Carducci
Founder & BuilderA Florida Certified Master Builder and Certified Residential Contractor with more than 20 years on the Emerald Coast — and a certified home inspector on top of it, so he understands a house from the footing up. Past president of the local Building Industry Association, and named Builder of the Year three years running, 2022–2024.
Crystal Butterworth
Office ManagerThirteen years coordinating production in aerospace taught Crystal how to keep complex jobs on schedule — now she keeps every JP Carducci project, and every client, running smoothly. She's usually the first person you'll talk to, and she makes sure you feel looked after from day one.
Aubri Velez
Interior Design Partner · Vela + Co.The designer behind JP Carducci's interiors, Aubri leads Vela + Co. and works alongside custom-home clients from the first selections through final styling. Her signature is warmth — warm tones, brass, and timeless natural materials — layered into homes that feel collected, personal, and current for years.
Respected by the industry, not just the clients.
A builder is only as good as the people beside him.
Ask Jason how he built the company and he'll give you the advice he took to heart early — and still runs on today:
"Find the best guys, treat them right and you will grow well." Jason Carducci — Get The Coast, 2025
So he keeps a tight circle of trusted trades and design partners he's worked with for years — the reason the finish work reads consistent from one home to the next, and the reason a single builder can put his name on every detail.
On custom builds that circle includes Vela + Co. Interiors for full interior design. You get a dedicated design team that shapes the look you want into a buildable plan and holds the selections to your budget — so the inside of the home is handled with the same care as the structure, never left on your shoulders.

If it's the right fit, let's talk early.
Jason takes on a limited number of homes at a time so each one gets his full attention. The earlier the conversation, the better the build.
