Radford Building exists because we believe your home should feel intentional — designed around your family, your routines, and the way you want to live. When I started this company in 2020, my goal was simple: build beautiful spaces and serve people well. That mission hasn’t changed. From the moment you reach out, you’ll notice how we work. We listen to what matters most to you. We guide you with clarity so nothing feels confusing or rushed. And we carry the weight of the details so you don’t have to. Our team plans every step with purpose — from design, to schedule, to budget, to the fine craftsmanship that ties it all together. You’ll always know where things stand, what’s coming next, and how we’re protecting the investment you’re making. At the end of the day, we don’t just build homes. • We build trust. • We build confidence. • We build a place your family will love walking into for years to come. If you want a partner who treats your project with the same care you would, we’d be honored to walk this journey with you.
Our goal is to be your life-long building partner through earning your trust by creating an exceptional building experience for you. We do this by focusing on your project goals, holistically. As a fully custom design/build firm our primary concern is to listen to the needs of our clients and then craft a design/build project around those specific goals, desires & needs. This allows us to form a project plan that is focused on creating the perfect blend of Architectural appeal (form & function) while at the same time keeping a watchful eye on the project budget to ensure project success from the onset.
We listen, learn, and align — understanding your goals, style, and budget before any design work begins.
Your vision takes shape through schematic design and early budgeting, giving you a clear picture of scope and cost.
We refine the design, finalize selections, complete engineering, and prepare permits and contract details — setting the stage for construction.
Our team brings your design to life with precision, communication, and craftsmanship, keeping you informed every step of the way.
We stand behind every build with responsive support and a comprehensive warranty, ensuring lasting peace of mind.
To help streamline our process we utilize a construction software platform called Co-Construct. From this platform all of your project information will be issued/communicated. This includes all contract documentation, project specifications & selections, change orders, invoices, etc.

At Radford Building Company, we believe your home should be completed exactly as promised — on time, on budget, and without surprises.
When we commit to a completion date, we stand behind it. If we miss that date, we pay you for every day we’re late. That’s how confident we are in our planning, scheduling, and communication.
And when we design and build your home from start to finish, you’ll never pay for a foreseeable issue that should have been caught during the process. If it’s our oversight, we make it right — period.
You deserve a builder who does what they say, when they say it. That’s our promise to you.
The heart of Radford Building is our people. Our crew of designers, carpenters, and managers bring decades of combined experience and a shared passion for quality work. Led by founder Jason Radford — who started the company in 2020 and a vision — our team has grown into a family of professionals committed to delivering exceptional results. We believe collaboration and care make all the difference, both on the jobsite and in our relationships with clients.
Founder
Founder
Jason started this company with one simple goal: build homes with care — and serve families even better. A North Carolina native, he spent years developing his skills in commercial and residential construction, real estate, and project leadership. He launched Radford Building Company to give families a building experience they could trust.
What drives Jason today is the same thing that has always moved him — people. He listens closely, communicates clearly, and leads with integrity. He’s intentional about building a truly collaborative team of designers, project managers, trade partners, and vendors who share the same standard of craftsmanship and care.
Jason believes the way you build the home matters just as much as the finished home. That means honest budgets, strong communication, tidy job sites, and a process where you always know what’s happening and why.
Outside of work, Jason is a devoted follower of Christ, husband to Ashley, and dad to four kids — Ava, Brody, Ella, and Henry. He’s a committed community supporter and an advocate for helping the next generation grow in confidence and character.
When you build with Jason and his team, you get more than a contractor. You get a partner who cares about your home and your family and is committed to building your home — and your trust — the right way every step of the way.

Growing up in Texas, Jill gained firsthand exposure to construction while helping her family build their home. She later earned dual degrees in Business Management and Communication, then built a career in sales and hospitality before rediscovering her love for design through a major renovation of her own home. That project sparked a deeper passion for creating functional, beautiful spaces, ultimately leading her to her dream role as Selections Coordinator at Radford Building, where she combines her eye for detail with a heart for serving clients.
Outside of work, Jill is a proud mom of four and enjoys volleyball (both playing and coaching), piano, Bible studies, camping trips, and time outdoors. Whether rock climbing, relaxing at the beach, or making memories with her family, she continues to bring energy and joy into everything she does.

Ray grew up in New England and has spent the last 35 years building and shaping homes with a craftsman’s touch. He began his career as a cabinet maker, where his attention to detail was sharpened one joint, one drawer, and one custom piece at a time. That passion led him to open two successful kitchen cabinet shops in Connecticut and later serve on the board of the Home Builders & Remodelers Association for 12 years. His deep experience and steady leadership make him a trusted presence on every project he oversees.
As part of the Radford Building team, Ray brings a calm, thoughtful approach to the jobsite. He cares about doing things the right way, guiding homeowners with clarity, and building homes that feel solid, welcoming, and enduring.
Outside of work, Ray is a devoted father to two boys who proudly follow in his footsteps. He loves being outdoors and stays active as an avid golfer, pickleball player, tool collector, and occasional pool shark. He’s also known to be pretty sharp with a set of darts. Wherever he is—on the course, on the court, or on a jobsite—Ray brings the same steady presence, good humor, and care for people that define who he is.

While new to the team this year (2025) Mina brings more than 12 years of project and facilities management experience from her career in the Philippines, and she now uses that skillset to keep Radford Building running at a high level. She’s the kind of person who brings order to complexity. She organizes details, coordinates with teams and vendors, and helps make sure every project moves forward the way it should.
Outside of work, Mina loves to explore new places. She enjoys good coffee, long walks outdoors, and spending time with her furbabies. She brings curiosity, joy, and steady care into everything she does — and that’s exactly why we’re so grateful to have her on our team.

At Radford Building, our expert team collaborates with you to design a home that reflects your lifestyle, preferences, and aspirations. Whether you have specific ideas or need inspiration, we can guide you through the process.
You can reach us easily by phone or through our contact page to discuss your project and get answers to your questions.
We proudly serve clients throughout our region including Durham, Orange and surrounding Counties, focusing on creating high-quality, custom homes and renovations, tailored to your needs.
The timeline to build a custom home can vary depending on the lot, design complexity, and materials selected. Most clients spend 6–12 months in the pre-construction phases, finalizing design, engineering, selections, budgets & contract details followed by another 8–12 months of construction. In total, most Radford homes take 18–24 months from concept to completion.
Our structured process keeps every phase organized and transparent so you always know where things stand.
