About Riverstone
Locally owned. Proudly building since 1997.
Our leadership team brings decades of experience to every home, with personal service and quality that lasts.
PresidentJamey Cagle
Building since 1997
Jamey got his start building while he was a high school kid in Canton, and he founded Riverstone Homes in 1997. Nearly 30 years later, he's still on site, still picks up the phone, and still treats every home like it has his name on it. Jamey also owns Tackle Barn Outdoors, the bait and tackle shop in Adairsville, so when he's not on a job site, there's a good chance he's talking fishing.
