When Quality is
the First Priority
F
or the past 20 years, Jason
Hemphill, founder of Hemphill
Contracting, has been building,
renovating and remodeling
homes throughout the South Hills for
discerning homeowners who refuse
to cut corners. That reputation for
quality has propelled him from working
on other crews to striking out on his
own nearly a decade ago, leaving a
neighborhood’s worth of satisfied
homeowners behind him.
“We do everything and that sets
us apart,” Hemphill said. “From new
construction to very extensive
renovations to difficult remodels and
the biggest additions, we do it all and
we do it with quality.”
He points to 1786 Dominion Drive
in Upper St. Clair as an example of his
craftsmanship on a home that Hemphill
Contracting built from foundation to
shingles.
“We will not sacrifice quality for
speed, and that’s important,” he said.
“We deliver on time without having to
cut corners. We use the highest quality
materials - real plywood over OSB and
copper pipes over PEX, which a lot of
people aren’t sold on yet. We do it the
right way and I’ve been fortunate that
the last seven years we’ve been serving
clients in the South Hills exclusively:
Upper St. Clair, Mt. Lebanon, Peters and
Bethel Park.”
Hemphill inadvertently got into
contracting right out of high school
when his brother-in-law saw hard
labor as a way to push him in a career
direction.
“I didn’t know what I wanted to do. I
knew college wasn’t something for me,
so he brought me out to torture me as
a a laborer,” Hemphill joked. “Turns out,
I loved it. I loved it then and I still love it
today.”
And while he’s up for any project,
Hemphill takes special pride in the
more extreme aspects of the jobs he
bids out and loves when homeowners
challenge him with a design that’s
unique to their lifestyle.
“We build things that people will
live with for as long as they own their
home,” he said. “So creating something
that’s special, unique and reflective of
the personality of the homeowners is
like being commissioned for a work
of art. We’re using common building
materials to create something they
will cherish and enjoy day in and day
out. When it comes down to it, the
place you lay your head at night is
your home and it deserves to be as
personalized for you as it can be.”
As the leader of a team of five
professionals, Hemphill said his team
is the best he’s ever worked with and
consummate professionals about the
work.
“Everybody I work with loves their
job and what we do,” he said. “We’re all
happy to come to work every day and
we love seeing homeowners’ faces
when they see the quality we put
into every job. We all care about the
job we do and want to make sure the
homeowners see that everytime they
walk into their home.”
