About Hickory Custom Homes
A local, owner-operated builder you can shake hands with — rooted right here in the Hermitage, PA area.
One Builder, Fully Accountable
Hickory Custom Homes was built on a simple idea: the person who promises you the home should be the same person standing on the job site making it happen. We're not a big franchise with a call center and a rotating cast of subs you never meet. When you hire Hickory, you get the owner — on the phone, in the driveway, and answering for the work.
That hands-on approach is why our clients trust us with the biggest investment they'll ever make. We'd rather take on fewer projects and do each one right than spread thin and let quality slip.
Proudly From the Hermitage Area
We're not builders who drove in from three counties over. We live here, our kids go to school here, and we know this region's land, weather, and people.
Western Pennsylvania has a particular kind of beauty — rolling farmland, mature hardwoods, and four real seasons that test a home in every way. Building well in Mercer and Lawrence County means understanding clay soils, freeze-thaw cycles, and the kind of winters that find every shortcut a lesser builder takes. We've spent years learning those lessons the right way.
Being local also means our reputation is everything. In a community like ours, word travels fast and a name carries weight. When you see our work in Hermitage, Sharon, or Grove City, you're seeing homes we have to drive past every week — and we build them knowing that. That accountability is baked into everything we do.

"Hickory built our home start to finish and the owner was on site more than anyone expected. Straight answers, fair pricing, and the quality shows. We tell every neighbor who asks."
— Mike T., Hermitage PA
