David Vaughn
Owner
Originally from North Augusta, SC, David began his college education at the College of Charleston and earned his bachelor’s degree in nuclear and radiological engineering from Georgia Tech. He built an enviable reputation within the nuclear industry and is regarded among his peers as the epitome of a reliable, creative, intelligent and precise individual. David lends each of these traits to his ultimate passion: residential remodeling.
What began years ago as a hobby David shared with his wife, has now developed into a full-time commitment. As a South Carolina-licensed commercial general contractor and residential homebuilder, David has remodeling experience that ranges from general interior and exterior remodeling and repairs to whole-house interior deconstruction, design and reconstruction.
David Brown

Forever a Hoosier at heart, Dave has made the Lowcountry his beloved adopted home with his wife and children for the past 20 years. After earning his degree from Indiana University, Dave gradually made his way to Charleston pursuing a dynamic career as a professional photographer and small business owner. He now lends the creative eye and attention to detail that brought him success in the photography world to the realm of residential construction as an eagle-eyed project manager and astute project estimator.
Butch Spell
Crew Manager
Butch is a Johns Island native with deep Lowcountry roots that span generations. Prior to joining the VaughnBuilt team, Butch’s dedication to hard work, efficiency and a job well done propelled him through the ranks of the Charleston County government, where ultimately, he managed a unit of 16 employees and attained the admirable achievement of becoming the youngest crew manager in the history of his department. Butch has a strong background in both general construction and residential plumbing and lends his rock-solid work ethic to keep our client’s projects on track, on time and on budget.
