Company Description
John Hill Construction is a custom home builder. We specialize in all phases of new residential construction and remodeling. Our particular focus is building custom homes on scattered lots as well as orchestrating major additions. No house is too big or too small.

A True Custom Builder
John Hill is a true custom builder, electing to build only 4-5 homes each year
His repertoire is varied and distinct. From well-appointed ranches to stone & brick transitionals to Frank Lloyd Wright-inspired modern homes, the company has built it all. Just as important as the home style itself is John Hill’s ability to build on unusual or difficult lots. John loves a challenge. Period. So rather than backing out from a potential obstacle, he rolls up his sleeves and finds creative approaches to solving design-to-build challenges and makes it look easy. Specifically, John has...

• Constructed driveways that are nestled deep in the woods or span creeks to create the most desirable home setting.
• Built walkout basements with extreme attention to grading to help maximize both home value and lot integrity.
• Worked within a variety of budget constraints to get a project off the ground.

“I thrive on applying creative, yet budget-conscious, solutions that give the homeowner both the look and functionality they want,” says John.

Hands-On Involvement
From the intial design meeting all the way through the warranty, John remains involved every step of the way. This hands-on and highly organized approach has led to a 100% satisfaction level with every homeowner. John works diligently and proficiently to make sure that each new client is satisfied. He sums it up this way:
“I am the owner, estimator, and supervisor for every home we build. I am on-site to ensure project integrity. This allows me to keep very close control of quality, cost, and scheduling.”

Making It An Enjoyable Experience
John's personal goal is to make the home-building experience an enjoyable one for customers. But that's no easy task, especially when each project is often a customer's dream home and expectations are high. That's why he takes clear and measurable steps to have a well-documented project flow, firm price estimate, and team of reliable subcontractors. He has learned from experience that these steps make the entire process more pleasant – and less frustrating.

The Facts Speak For Themselves
John Hill is proud of the following statistics:

• A John Hill home has never encountered a wet basement
• 43% of business comes from other well-respected people in the building industry

Core Competencies At-A-Glance

2. We give clear instructions to our team of sub contractors. This keeps communication strong, quality high and errors minimized. We also pay them on time, so few have wanted to stray.
3. We have never encountered a wet basement, a true reflection of the foundation integrity of the homes we build. We do whatever is necessary to maintain that track record.
4. We have an enviable client management process. We stress communcation with clients, which puts everyone in-the-know and at ease.
5. We make the experience enjoyable for clients by treating them fairly, communicating often, giving credits back where appropriate, giving fair allowances from the start, and having an inherently easy-going disposition.
6. We have a highly-organized process for updating change orders and keeping the client in the loop on these changes.
7. We have reputable relationships with fellow builders in the community. No less than 43% of our business has stemmed from builders recommending us to others.
8. John himself is the owner, estimator, and supervisor on every job, so he's able to keep very close control of quality and costs.
9. By controlling the building project from start to finish, we have become the low overhead leader.

"We were more than pleased with our decision to work with John. That's saying a lot, since my husband is in the building trade and has high expectations. Another builder had actually referred us to John. That showed us that he was highly regarded in the industry."
