Meet the Builder!

Edenton Builders, Inc. is named for the town in which it is located, a colonial town that is one of the most beautiful places in historic Northeastern North Carolina (visitedenton.com). Owner John Norris knows that his customers respect heritage and expect quality, so he has built his business on commitment to excellence and exceptional service.

An engineering graduate of The Citadel, the Military College of South Carolina, Norris brings to this project experience in all aspects of residential and commercial construction and project management. He has also studied the techniques of wooden boatbuilding at the Norfolk School of Boatbuilding, a set of skills he credits with his exacting attention to detail.

Norris and his colleagues at Edenton Builders pride themselves on their ability to tackle the toughest challenges — their motto could be "nothing we do is typical." With a reputation for value and efficiency, they combine expertise in advanced building techniques with ability to deliver custom, handcrafted quality.

For Norris, the appeal of Extreme Makeover:Home Edition is the opportunity to gather a community of volunteers to reward heroes right next door. In a time when the days seem to be full of discouraging news, he welcomes the chance to help provide the very good news of neighbors helping neighbors.
