Andy Holmes is the owner and General Contractor at Holmes By Design. His interest in construction started at a young age when he accompanied his father, a master trim carpenter, to job sites. Today, Andy has built over 800 houses. He enjoys taking the building process a step further than the essentials, collaborating with clients to create their Pinterest-worthy dream home. 

He's not only a master on the job site, he's also highly skilled at grilling BBQ on his Big Green Egg, a professional Bourbon sipper, and a force to be reckoned with on his zero-turn mower and Bobcat.

“Building a truly custom home can be daunting! After all, you don’t know what you don’t know! That’s what was so nice about working with Holmes by Design. They had a plan for every stage of the process. Rather than letting me get distracted by the choices too early in the project, they helped me schedule out my decisions according to a timeline. It actually wasn’t daunting at all! We’ve been in the house for a year now and I still look around with marvel at the beauty of the design and craftsmanship! My friends still oooh and ahhh over it too!”
