Quality Craftsmanship
At HBC, we have high standards for our work and understand the special requirements for building on the island’s oceanfront, maritime forest, and estuary properties. Coastal construction is our expertise, and our teammates are dedicated to the company, their trade, and our clients. We know what it takes to create an exceptional home, including custom cabinetry, exotic hardwood flooring, stunning paint and woodwork, and the very best finishes inside and out. Stainless steel nails and fasteners, spray foam insulation and copper flashing, impact glass and 5 layers of protection around doors and windows are just a few examples of how HBC goes the extra mile to ensure our homes are as durable as they are beautiful.
