Company Description

The company LOVES it's people! Benefits and the owners take care of their employees like family!

“We began in 1999 with a dream to design and build homes from the ground up. In 2012 we realized that there were families that wanted to renovate their existing houses into their dream homes and those that needed maintenance services, including roofing, remodeling and insurance claim work. And that was when we began a new company to provide those families with the right help, so that they could afford to make something truly their own.

The Homestar Group’s mission is a commitment to creating high quality and affordable renovations as well as new homes over the country for people to have what they want, right where they already live.
