Wedgworth Companies
For three decades, Mike Wedgworth has created some of the finest custom homes and residential communities in Birmingham, Alabama. His commitment to outstanding, quality construction is evident in each of the more than 250 homes he's crafted for families here. His reputation has been built the same way as any new Wedgworth home or community: one relationship at a time. That's why so many customers find the Wedgworth Companies through referrals from friends who built or bought a home from Mike. Good news travels fast. This is Mike Wedgworth's hometown, and developing customers as life-long friends is part of his business strategy. Our communities include Overlook Crest, Woodridge, Surrey Oaks, Magnolia Ridge, Thornhill, Ivy Glenn and Wyngate. We've also built custom homes in many prestigious neighborhoods in Mountain Brook, Highland Park and Vestavia, like Countryridge, Countrywood Highlands, Tanglecreek, Buckhead, Abingdon Green and Panorama Cove.
