Building and Remodeling Homes Across South Hampton Roads Since 1979


Howerin Construction Corp has built and remodeled homes in Norfolk, Virginia Beach, and Chesapeake for more than 45 years. We are a family-owned general contractor, and we have watched these neighborhoods grow from the inside out: the 1920s brick homes of Ghent and Larchmont, the post-war ranches of Wards Corner and Kempsville, and the new subdivisions of Great Bridge and Hickory. That local history matters on every job. Homes here deal with salt air, high humidity, nor'easters, hurricane season, and a high water table. 

Many Norfolk and Virginia Beach lots sit in flood zones or inside Chesapeake Bay Preservation Area buffers. We plan for all of it up front, from foundation and elevation choices to moisture-resistant materials, so your home holds up to coastal Virginia weather for decades.



Whether you want to build a new custom home on your lot, open up a dated kitchen, add a primary suite, or replace a worn-out deck, one local team handles design, permits, and construction from start to finish. Call or text (757) 260-5100 to schedule your free estimate.

Renovation and Remodeling Services

Renovation and Remodeling Services

Many homes in Norfolk and Virginia Beach are 50 to 100 years old. We modernize them without losing what makes them special: kitchen remodels, bathroom remodels, room additions, second-story additions, and whole-home renovations. We also help homeowners with storm and water-damage insurance claims.

Deck Building Services

Custom Decks Built for Coastal Weather

Sun, salt, and humidity are hard on outdoor wood. We build Trex, TimberTech, and traditional pressure-treated wood decks designed to last in Hampton Roads conditions.
