About.
For nearly two decades, HD Build has grown from a single-trade outfit into a multi-trade subcontractor trusted across 34+ states. Along the way, we’ve earned our reputation for delivering metal stud framing, insulation, drywall, acoustical ceilings and walls, painting, and wall coverings with precision and consistency.
But our story isn’t just about the work we perform — it’s about the relationships we build. We know that successful projects depend on trust, communication, and accountability as much as they do on schedules and materials. That’s why we put people first: our clients, our partners, and our crews.
Every project we take on is a chance to prove that construction can be efficient, reliable, and collaborative. At HD Build, we believe the strongest structures are built on trust.
Team
At HD Build, our greatest strength is our people. What started as a small crew has grown into a large and continually expanding workforce of full-time professionals who take pride in their craft. By keeping our team in-house, we provide consistency, accountability, and a level of quality that’s hard to match with revolving subcontract labor.
We believe that when our people are supported and given opportunities to grow, they perform at their best. That’s why we focus on training, development, and building careers — not just jobs. In turn, our team delivers projects with the skill, reliability, and care that our clients deserve.
Every project is only as strong as the team behind it, and our team is built to last.
