“Our business is built on trust. Honesty, integrity and transparency have been core values since we founded Whole Builders in 1979 and we continue to seek and reward these values in our employees and subcontractors.
We are committed to providing the best possible finished project for each client. We listen to the client’s needs, research and provide options, and include information related to energy use and materials safety - and we are always fully transparent with cost information. It’s simply how we do business and I believe it’s the reason we have built successful long-term relationships with our clients and why they recommend us to their family and friends.”

Our Name: Whole Builders 

The word "Whole" represents:

  • Our comprehensive design-build process carefully brings together our client's goals & budget with our team's skills and experience.
  • Our goal is to achieve ideal proportion and balance in our work. The Golden Mean was discovered and used by the ancient Greeks and DaVinci in art and architecture. It represents beauty, symmetry, proportion and balance. It's how we do our work and it's how we run our business.

Since 1979, we have successfully completed over 4,000 kitchen and bath remodels, second floor expansions, additions, whole house remodels, accessibility improvements and business/ instutional projects.

We create spaces which are beautiful, function well, are enjoyable to live in, use energy and building resources efficiently and are easy to maintain.
