Nehemiah Construction specializes in producing custom residential homes. We understand our clients lifestyles and carefully realize the importance of energy efficient living. Nehemiah Construction believes in collaborating throughout the building process with our clients, by including them in every phase of the construction process. We take time to explain every aspect of all requested and purchased materials for the interior and exterior of your custom home. Nehemiah Construction’s best client is one who has imagination. Every detail from the home you imagined is a detail we take seriously. Nehemiah Construction also understands the cost pressures of building a custom home. It is our priority to consult with our clients on cost saving material without compromising the integrity of there custom home. Although Modular homes have been available for 20 years, “custom" modular homes are new to the industry. There are many subtle advantages of building modular homes instead of traditional building. A big factor is your location. During the winter months cold weather often bring snow, ice and freezing temperatures. Modular home manufacturers build your custom home in a huge indoor facility over 150,000 sq. ft. where no material can be weathered or damaged due to the outdoor elements. One of the cost value benefits is our ability to add spray foam insulation behind every electrical outlet, switch, and crevice of our framing stud and panels leaving this house 100% energy sealed.

My Passion for construction started with me early when I was asked by my Dad to build a shed in the overgrown sloped backyard at 13. I didn’t have a driver's license so my mom had to drive me to Hechingers to pick up the supplies needed. My dad was somewhat shocked when he came back a week later and the shed was not only done, but completely level and looked great! Our neighbors started asking if I could do the same for them. I put myself through college and graduate school doing construction projects on the side. It has always been my passion so to get into the business of construction and remodeling was an easy choice. Clients choose me over others, I believe, because they realize after speaking with me I understand every aspect of their job and have looked at all the aspects of their project that affect them and their project. They know I understand what they want for a final product. We are super clean and neat. I also work to make sure our prices are very competitive so they get a great product at a very competitive price. One of the best parts of any project and I think this happens most in a kitchen or kitchen addition remodel where the kitchen is new and remodeled but the space is larger. The looks on their eyes when they see the final product makes it all worth it. The best part is when you ask them if this is what they expected and they say “better than expected”! That is the best conclusion to any of our jobs and it happens all the time. I like to communicate daily with our customers to make sure they understand where we are in the project and make sure they understand what we are doing to get to the next stage of the project. I make sure all questions are answered and any concerns are relayed to the entire team. I have found that constant communication is best and always being available when questions or concerns arise lets a customer know the job is going smooth. We look forward to working with you!

The earlier the better — before hiring a builder. Starting with an architect aligns your program, budget, and sustainability goals from day one and prevents costly rework. HOW LONG DOES DESIGN AND PERMITTING TAKE? Design generally takes 3–4 months and permitting 2–3 months. Projects requiring a zoning or Chesapeake Bay Critical Area variance typically add 3–4 months. HOW DO ARCHITECTURAL FEES WORK? We use three structures: percentage-based (common for new construction), fixed fees (for defined scopes), and hourly (for consulting). Your proposal outlines which applies. WHAT IS THE CHESAPEAKE BAY CRITICAL AREA? A Maryland buffer — generally 1,000 feet from tidal waters — protecting Bay water quality. It limits lot coverage, impervious surface, and tree removal. We guide clients through every required county review. DO YOU DESIGN ENERGY-EFFICIENT HOMES? Yes. We are an NCARB-certified firm with LEED-accredited professionals, integrating daylighting, passive design, and responsible materials into every project. DO YOU HANDLE PERMITTING AND CONSTRUCTION ADMINISTRATION? Yes. We submit permits across Maryland and D.C., manage variances and pre-file submissions, and provide Construction Administration — site visits and contractor coordination to ensure the design is built as drawn.
