About Us - DH1 Construction

Our Story

DH1 Construction stands as the embodiment of a dream nurtured by Adrian and Dwain, two kindred spirits who not only share a rich heritage but also a profound commitment to client contentment, operational excellence, and the artistry of their craft. Our dedicated team can be discovered on various job sites, engaged in tasks ranging from comprehensive full-scale constructions to the intricate transformation of kitchens, as well as the assembly of new fences. Our ethos revolves around the principle that the magnitude of a project is secondary to our dedication to both our esteemed clients and our valued staff. With unwavering resolve, we labor diligently to breathe life into the visions cherished by our clients, irrespective of project size.

We understand that your home is more than just a building—it's where memories are made, where families grow, and where life happens. That's why we approach every project, big or small, with the same level of dedication and attention to detail.

It's not the size of the work that matters to us, but the kind of impact we can have meeting the specific needs of each client. From fences, to full renovations, let's build something together.

Our Values

The principles that guide everything we do

Client Satisfaction

Consistently, our clients shower us with enthusiastic reviews. Some have even gone the extra mile to establish profiles for us on platforms we haven't even adopted, solely to bestow upon us their resounding 5-star commendations. This stems from our unique approach. We don't perceive client relationships as mere transactions, a simple exchange of service for payment. Rather, we embark on projects as if we were crafting a future home for our own children. Our commitment doesn't waver until every facet aligns with DH1 Construction's exacting standards for products and craftsmanship.

Understanding the diversity inherent in each client's vision, budget, and time constraints, we tailor our efforts accordingly. Your satisfaction is paramount, and we dedicate ourselves to presenting solutions that harmonize with your project's unique parameters.

Efficiency

How we allocate our time mirrors how our clients invest their funds—an aspect we regard with utmost gravity. We proactively forecast material and equipment requirements, orchestrating orders to guarantee their arrival aligns with demand. In cases where specialized artisans such as plumbers or electricians are necessary, we arrange their involvement without letting projects idle. Vigilant to possible disturbances, we adjust our schedules accordingly.

Your input matters deeply. Transparently communicating your vision, limitations, and concerns empowers us to factor them into our endeavors, fostering an outcome that truly resonates.

Craftsmanship

Our value extends beyond our proficiency in executing standard workflows; it's equally rooted in our adeptness at navigating intricate and often distinct limitations inherent to each job site. An illustrative instance involves a client who had acquired a beloved vanity, yet the positioning of a drawer clashed with the newly installed plumbing. Our response was innovative: we removed, reconfigured, and reinstalled the drawer to seamlessly accommodate the plumbing, leaving the client impressed by our collaborative approach.

Authentic pride infuses every facet of our work, every step a purposeful one. We deliberate over each touch and assess alternatives before considering any compromise, always keeping our clients actively engaged in the process.

Leadership

Meet the master carpenters behind DH1 Construction

Dwain Williams

Master Carpenter and Co-founder

dwain@dh1construction.com

Dwain is a master carpenter and co-founder with a passion for building. Born and raised in Jamaica, he took an early interest in carpentry, gobbling up everything there was to learn about the craft. He spent time watching documentaries and reading books, with a burning desire to explore what was at the boundaries of carpentry. As a child, he dreamt about coming to America and teaming up with other folks to start a construction company that would employ people and serve its clients. To that end, he went to a trade school and learned the ins and outs as an apprentice. When he met Adrian in Washington in 2020, he knew he had found the right partner to start DH1 Construction.

Adrian Herah

Master Carpenter and Co-founder

adrian@dh1construciton.com

Craftsmanship comes natural for Adrian–maybe he was born this way. Getting his start in upholstery, the way he seamlessly transitions from the sewing machine to the hammer will fascinate you. Though he has settled on carpentry, he still has a profound appreciation for good design, and will often share his ideas for what the experience after project completion should be like. His path from law enforcement in Jamaica to master carpenter in Seattle Washington is interesting if not traditional. Like Dwain, he had ideas of starting a construction company in America. When they met, he appreciated his craftsmanship and attention to detail, so he invited him to work under his boss at the time. As they worked, they envisioned going on out their own, and DH1 Construction was born. Adrian takes pride in the fact that his former boss thought he was ready to branch out, and after he did, his former boss would call him up and give him contracts.

Client Testimonials

Hear what our clients have to say about working with us

"Our house was on a slope, by the ocean and Vashon and required a lot of atypical work to complete. DH1 Construction showed up and just got it done. I have never worked with a more brilliant, thoughtful and dedicated team!"

Jane

"Actually I am still stunned about this! They came in the morning and I let them in and went to office to work. When I came back downstairs for lunch in the afternoon, they had demoed the entire bathroom and had the majority of the framing up. They had this "that's how we work" look on their face when they saw how shocked I was that they had moved that fast."

Jazbo

"We hired DH1 for a complete bathroom remodel. The attention to detail and quality of work was outstanding. They stayed within budget and completed on time. Highly recommend!"
