Why We Started E.H. Construction

Let’s rewind the tape for a second—back to a time before backhoes roared, before stacks of ready mix concrete filled our construction site, and before we had a clipboard full of bids and blueprints. Why did we start E.H. Construction?

Simple. We saw a need for a construction company that actually cared.

Cared about quality.
Cared about people.
Cared about doing things the right way—even if that meant getting our boots muddy and doing a bit more floating and flatwork than we planned.

From the Ground Up (Literally)

E.H. Construction didn’t start in a fancy office. Nope. It began on-site, hands-on, and in the middle of real-life building construction—where contractors sweat the details, construction workers hustle rain or shine, and general contractors double as therapists, designers, and part-time magicians.

We started this journey because we wanted to build more than houses. We wanted to build trust. Homes with soul. Projects with purpose. Whether it’s a custom home builder project with complex floor plans and cost-plus contracts, or just making sure your frieze board (bird block) is installed clean and crisp—we’re all in.

The Magic in the Mess

Let’s face it: construction can be chaotic. Between juggling change orders, deciphering CAD (computer-aided design) files, and making sure your foundation doesn’t crack from expansive soils, things can get overwhelming.

That’s exactly why we stepped in. To bring clarity and craftsmanship to every project. To make the cost to build a house less of a mystery and more of a roadmap. We use tools like BIM (building information modeling), clean daily reports, and real-time updates because communication shouldn’t feel like a game of telephone.

Built on Family, Fueled by Passion

At our core, E.H. Construction is a family business. That means every fascia, every footer (footing), and every line of framing is treated like it's part of our home. Our clients aren’t just line items on a spreadsheet—they’re partners. Friends. Future neighbors.

And our crew? They’re the heartbeat. Skilled home builders with an eye for detail and a love for the grind. From measuring the grade just right to cutting green board (pressure-treated lumber) for a perfect fit, they bring pride and precision to the table daily.

More Than Just Bricks & Mortar

We’re not just here to pour form into place and call it a day. We’re here to create spaces where people laugh, grow, raise kids, start businesses, and maybe even finally learn how to play the drums (hey, we support dreams).

We’re all about:

  • Building passive houses for sustainable living

  • Designing homes with energy-efficient forced air heating/cooling

  • Installing fire-resistive (fire-rated) materials in wildfire zones

  • Using smart flashing, solid felt (underlayment), and strong girder trusses

  • Making homes safer with GFCI (ground fault circuit interrupter) outlets

  • And heck yes, we even love a good glulam (glued laminated beam) moment

Legacy in the Making

We didn’t start E.H. Construction just to do damp proofing and make cost codes spreadsheets. We started because we believe in the power of builders—not just to raise walls, but to raise standards.

With every project—big or small—we ask ourselves: Would we live here? Would we be proud of this? If the answer isn’t a resounding YES, we’re not done yet.

So whether you're planning a floor plan for your dream home or just wondering how to avoid foundation drama from expansive soils, we’ve got your back. Because we’re not just a construction company—we’re E.H. Construction.

And we're here to build better. Together.
