About Us

J.A. Long, Inc. has built a stellar reputation for building some of northeast Florida’s best residential custom homes.

Founded by John A. Long in 1972, J.A. Long is a family-owned company that is driven by its commitment to quality, personalized service and creating some of the most beautiful homes in North Florida.

By focusing on delivering a quality product, the firm has built a reputation for real dollar value and solid craftsmanship. These high standards are made possible by the family’s personal involvement in every project from the original design work to the daily on-site supervision.

These standards are also backed up by the J.A. Long "Extended Care" policy that goes well beyond the written warranty.

The company’s own Florida-style custom designs focus on wide open spaces and creating a natural fit between each home and its surroundings. Also, J.A. Long works with individual home owners who have their own plans and ideas to create a living space that is truly customized.

J.A. Long Residential Custom Homes are located in some of the most prestigious neighborhoods and communities in the First Coast – including Eagle Harbor, Eagle Landing, World Golf Village, Magnolia Point Country Club, Jacksonville Golf & Country Club, Pace Island, Orange Park Country Club, Romeo Point, and Paradise Moorings.
