Established in 2002 , Mike Riddle Construction ( MRC ) started as a one-man operation . Today , its team includes 14 employees plus many design , trade , and service partners who collectively strive to make the homebuilding experience personal , transparent , and fun for homeowners . MRC has been built around the central values of integrity , hard work , creativity , high standards , and contributing to the community . We learn more about the company ’ s journey through Owner Mike Riddle , who recounts his early days in homebuilding .
“ My journey in the homebuilding industry began before I went to college , when I would spend my summers and holiday breaks working for a custom homebuilder . By doing so , I gained significant hands-on experience in foundations , framing , demolition , trim carpentry , and more . While I enjoyed the
practical tasks , I knew that my body likely could not sustain the physical rigor for the rest of my life . This realization led me to pursue a sports medicine , teaching and coaching career and take a hiatus from homebuilding ,” he opens .
“ I then went onto found the company 22 years ago , but it was not known as MRC until 2011 , when we underwent a rebrand and name change . My return into the construction industry was mainly driven by the need to provide extra income for my family . At that time , my wife and I were both schoolteachers , and she desired to stay at home when we started having children . Consequently , I took on a few home remodeling projects every year to bridge the financial gap and sustain our family . Balancing teaching during the day and construction work at night , I developed a passion for new construction . Eventually , I purchased a lot , built a house , and sold it .
