Meet Our Leadership

Billy Hartnett

Billy’s passion for building began at age 13. By 18, he was already a business owner, beginning a career defined by a hands-on, multi-faceted approach to construction.

Today, Billy is still present on every job site, mentoring carpenters, collaborating with clients, and ensuring that every project meets his high standards of quality. When he isn't on-site, Billy is likely on the water, scuba diving, with his pups, or hosting "family dinner" for friends and loved ones.
