About MK Builds

What Makes Us Different?

MK Builds understands that construction, first and foremost, is a customer service industry. 

Plenty of contractors out there are good builders, but most contractors undervalue customer service and communication. 

With 16 years in the commercial construction realm and decades in customer service, MK Builds brings strong processes, scheduling, and constant communication to the building process. 

We know renovating your home is an intrusive and stressful process; it can be the most significant cost outside of purchasing your home, and the client's comfort in the process is of the utmost concern and focus for MK Builds.

Our Story:

Established in 2017 by Mark and Andrea, MK Builds merges a lifelong passion for construction with the highest standards of craftsmanship and effective communication. Mark's journey began in a family-owned door store in Warren, MI, fostering a deep-seated love for building that was further nurtured through high school classes and professional experiences in Denver, CO. Here, he not only honed his skills but also owned and renovated multiple properties.

The move to Minneapolis in 2013 marked a new chapter for Mark, leading to the inception of MK Builds in 2017, a venture born from his desire to pursue his passion alongside Andrea. The couple's shared commitment to excellence and integrity in building led them back to Michigan in 2021, aiming to enrich the Grand Rapids community with their expertise.

Andrea, with her formidable background in commercial construction and project management, brings a wealth of experience and a dynamic "I wait for no man" attitude to MK Builds. Together, they are dedicated to transforming homes in West Michigan, crafting spaces that families cherish.

At MK Builds, we are a team driven by passion, expertise, and a commitment to delivering exceptional results for our clients.
