Experience You Can Trust. Quality Without Compromise.
Tandem Homes was born in 2021, but our story begins much earlier. For over a decade, Darko Gole and Christin Cupp collaborated on numerous high-end projects, discovering a shared passion for precision and a mutual drive for excellence. In 2021, they decided to officially combine their unique talents to form a remodeling and home-building company that offers a level of expertise and a resume of work that no other firm in the region can match.
At Tandem Homes, we believe that "in tandem" is more than just a name—it is how we work with our clients. We have built our reputation on an extreme demand for quality, utilizing the latest real-time 3D design technology and efficient systems to ensure projects are completed on time and within reach. Our mission is simple: to provide surprisingly affordable custom remodeling and new home construction while maintaining 24/7 availability and exceptional customer satisfaction.
With over 70 years of combined experience, we don’t just build houses; we build peace of mind.
