Over Four Decades of Building Excellence

We founded Horizon Building in 1984 with a clear purpose: to provide Northern Virginia's most discerning homeowners with expert guidance through complex construction projects.

What began as a small custom home builder has evolved into a trusted design/build firm known for uncompromising craftsmanship and a transparent process.

Our reputation spans Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Arlington, Alexandria, and beyond; built one meticulously executed project at a time. From mid-range remodels to multi-million dollar custom estates, every home we build reflects our commitment to exceptional customer service and construction excellence.

This isn't just our business. It's our legacy.
