Professional Custom Home Builder in Pelham, AL, and Serving All of Shelby and Jefferson Counties

I hired Gerald and Building Concepts to build my dream home and it was one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. From his professionalism to timely responses, Gerald has been a joy to work with. But the true testament to his success is the completed house. My family and I are glad that we found him and would recommend him 10/10 to everyone we talk to.

Gerald is an awesome contractor! He help turn a picture( blue prints) of my dream home into a reality. I had many Pinterest visions that I know were impossible, but Gerald gave me more than I asked for. He is a hard worker, he listens well, and he executes! I would hire Gerald and his team of extraordinary men again.

Building Concepts is an A+ business. Gerald Hatton is a professional in his field. His attention to detail, communication and transparency set him above the rest. He and his wife Patience were a pleasure to work with. They work well as a team. He is honest and dependable. We LOVE the home he built for us!! My husband and I highly recommend him.

We had an excellent experience with Gerald Hatton and his company Building Concepts LLC. Gerald is so knowledgeable and gives great attention to the details. He is a great communicator and was very easy to work with. He was always willing to answer our questions and talk us through the many issues that arise during the building of a house. He uses top-notch sub-contractors who are very good at their specialty, and he holds them accountable for their work. Overall, we do not feel that we could have found anyone better to build our house than Gerald and Building Concepts LLC.

Building Concepts, LLC provides excellent service and high quality workmanship.

Fantastic communication and attention to detail. On site daily to supervise subcontractors. Project came in on budget and on time. Our project was definitely out of the ordinary, (building a soundproof room with special construction techniques and materials), but turned out great and the results speak for themselves! Would use again if we had to do it over.

Gerald has a wealth of knowledge and I was happy with the end result. I would recommend Building Concept for any of my projects in the future.

Gerald Hatten with Building Concepts did an amazing job with our house and we couldn’t be happier. From the first phone call to signing day, he was always ready to answer our questions. We asked questions constantly, and he was incredibly patient and extremely honest. He would tell us if he didn’t think something would work, either construction or appearance, but not only that, he would go one step further and help us figure out what would work instead. If something got delayed or wasn’t working like we thought it would, he would explain what happened, give us options, and then stand back and patiently wait while we figured out what to do. He was never pushy or condescending to us, but always supportive and encouraging. He was excellent at anticipating problems, and would make sure he didn’t leave us with anything we would have to worry about later. His advice was invaluable, and he always explained the building process. We loved learning about every step, and we now have a far greater knowledge of every building aspect. We are appreciative and pleased with how much he shared. He would be quick to respond with an answer, or quickly find the answer for us. His quality of work is exceptional, and from the very beginning, we never worried about what our house would look like. We always said, “Gerald wouldn’t let it look bad”. And he didn’t. We now have a gorgeous home and we couldn’t be more thrilled to be living here!

My relationship with Gerald started several years ago when he entertained a quote from my woodworking company for his Eclectic, AL job. It started with a custom one of a kind 300 bottle metal wine cabinet and before the job was finished we had built two custom king size bunkbeds made of Douglas Fir and steel, custom built-in cabinetry for 19 closets, fireplace mantles, built-in book case, barn doors, five Spanish cedar garage doors and more. Needless to say Gerald and I have formed a great and professional working relationship that still exist today. Being a retired contractor, and a picky on at that, I can say that Gerald, without questions, is one of the most knowledgeable and easy to work with builder I've had the pleasure to know. I look look forward to continue working with Gerald in the future.

My wife and I hired Gerald Hatton to build our modern dream house in the Birmingham Southside location on Red Mountain overlooking Downtown Birmingham. The building site was extremely challenging, in the slide zone with heavy rains impeding the work many times. Gerald was up to the task and able to handle the geological and structural challenges with no problem. We screened many builders and selected Gerald since he is very knowledgable with respect to building materials and technical considerations. Energy efficiency and proper building (drainage, structural integrity, etc.) were very important to me. Finally, communication was flawless. Gerald communicated with me and my wife every day throughout the process. He was even available on the weekends for questions. I recommend Building Concepts, LLC without reservation for your new construction or remodel job.

I would highly recommend this company to anyone who is building a custom home. Gerald Hatton built our dream home, and we could not have asked for a better home builder. He is highly knowledgeable in every aspect of home building, from the foundation to the roof. His commitment to quality is to be admired, and his attention to detail to be applauded. You always hear horror stories about building a house, but this is not one of those stories. Gerald is honest, fair and a hard worker. He communicated with us throughout the whole process, and working with him was a pleasure.

Gerald goes above and beyond when it comes to quality. It is number one on his list to do the best job that can possibly be imagined!

I worked with Gerald at Building Concepts to design a large, luxury lake house. He was a huge help in discussions with the client and helped me bridge the gap between the design the clients wanted and the reality of building a spectacular product. He was incredibly focused and helped every party involve find confidence in a plan. I would work with Building Concepts again on any project. I'm looking forward to the next one.

Gerald and Patience Hatton are two of the most professional, thorough, talented individuals to work with. Our company, Funktionart, was pleased to work with Building Concepts, llc on the custom design and installalation of an amazing feature wall in a new construction project they headed! I would highly recommend them to anyone seeking a professional, exceptional contracting firm.

Gerald Hatton with Building Concepts LLC is a top notch professional. From the detailed contract and estimate to the superior subs he uses for specialty work. He has shown to be honest, mannerly, reliable, intelligent, and ethical. Gerald Hatton takes care of you as if you were his mother. Communications is excellent as to what work needs to be done. Then Mr. Hatton follows up on your satisfaction regarding the work.

I recently had a break in and Mr. Hatton was working out of town. He immediately hooked me up with someone who could secure my house until such time the door and window folks could replace the broken door. I have recommended him to anyone who had construction needs and Building Concepts has consistently done and outstanding job. During this time Mr. Hatton checked on me frequently to make certain I was alright and my house was secure.

The cost is not the cheapest, but certainly not the highest. I believe the work of Building Concepts is a good value for the price.

I cannot say enough about how satisfied we were with our full home remodels and our experience with Gerald Hatton and Building Concepts. After meeting with a handful of contractors, it was clear that Gerald had the knowledge and vision to guide us through the building process. Gerald’s education at Auburn University with a degree in Building Science Engineering and his real world experience gave us the confidence to launch into a project as extensive as our was. His ability to stay "on time and on budget" is surely unparalleled in an industry that is notorious for failing miserably at both.
Gerald helped us prioritize our needs and wants to get us a final product that we were thrilled with, on a budget that was feasible. No detail was too small for Gerald to take seriously and he was always willing to show up with his tools in hand and ready to get dirty in order to save US (the home owner) money.
We were enjoying our first home built by Gerald for about a year when our expanding family caused us to call on Gerald for yet another addition. We braced for the uncomfortable as our second "go round" would have us living in the midst of the construction- with a toddler! But Gerald assured us that our attic/ 1,200 sq ft second story construction would be relatively pain free and it was!
The thoughtfulness he showed our home- protecting furniture and flooring- meant so much to us. We would joke around that upon our return home from work the only way to tell if Gerald and his crews had been there was by the progress made upstairs despite the fact that the only access to the construction was through our main living room.
After about two years of living in our home we received a knock on the door with an offer to purchase. We accepted the offer, sold the home, purchased another home, called Gerald and he six months later we had torn down another small house and built a 3000+ sqft home that is our dream home.
We wholeheartedly would and have recommended Gerald Hatton and Building Concepts to friends and family. Our endorsement of Gerald’s work is so strong that we would be happy to speak to you personally.
Thanks Gerald!

The project consisted of a deck tear-off with the addition of an 18’-0” by 20’-0” conditioned sunroom and a 6’-0” balcony on the long side, a complete reroof and gutter replacement for the entire house, and a new set of steps to the front porch.

Gerald provided a detailed estimate with a complete scope of work and a completion date.

Gerald was available to talk with me any time I had a question.
He kept me informed during construction regarding the “next step” in the construction process.

Gerald is very knowledgeable about construction and we had no issues from the first time we met to discuss the project until I made the final payment.

If I choose any addition / renovation or build a new house, I will use Building Concepts, LLC.

Gerald is one of the best! He spearheaded our first rebuild - taking the old house down to the foundation and rebuilding a masterpiece. It was an easy choice for us when a couple years later we found another home we wanted to rebuild - you go with what you know and we knew that Building Concepts could deliver on time and on budget.
Gerald Hatton has strong experience navigating the remodel/ rebuild of older homes. He went above and beyond to make himself available to answer questions and ease our minds throughout the process.
He made our dream home a reality!

I used them for a very small job because of my budget and was treated just like I was spending a million dollars. Very professional, on time, and conscientious of the quality of work done. Electrical and hanging light fixtures, but they do it all.
