Third generation · More than forty yearsA third-generation contractor, more than forty years in the industry.
Mark personally oversees every project.
Mark Allen Builders is the work he cares most about: renovations and additions done properly, and houses put back together correctly after something goes wrong.
We don't just repair homes. We make sure they're rebuilt correctly.
We do not determine insurance coverage. We determine what is required to properly rebuild the approved repairs.
That means building codes, manufacturer installation requirements, structural repairs, and the sequencing of every trade that has to come through the house.
From the perspective of experienced builders, not adjusters.

It carries localised pricing, labour rates, material costs, taxes, overhead and profit. You get the work priced line by line, not a number on the back of a card.
