Robbins Construction

Owner

Donald Robbins started Robbins Construction in 2004. Having spent almost 30 years in the home improvement business in many different roles and industries, he created what is now a residential remodeling, repair, and renovation company with some commercial work as well. Donald is a graduate of Harding University with an accounting degree and also obtained his CPA license in 1991.

Donald’s favorite things about his company are seeing the change in the homes we touch and how happy our customers are, as well as working with everyone at Robbins.

When Donald is not busy leading the Robbins team, he enjoys spending time with family and friends, playing guitar, and traveling through the Western US, with a love for Montana, especially.

Project Manager

Juan joined the Robbins Construction team as a project manager in late 2022, but previously worked for Robbins as a subcontractor and a crew member for around 3 years. He is originally from Mexico and has been around construction since he was very young, having helped his father in his spare time building homes. When Juan first came to the United States in 2004, he started working as a laborer for construction companies and knew it was his passion to work with his hands in many aspects of construction.

Juan’s favorite thing about Robbins Construction is being able to work on something new every day and construction well done home renovation projects with the help of a great team.

When Juan is not working, he enjoys listening to Christian music, partaking in outdoor activities with his wife and kids, such as riding jet skis, camping, and riding ATVS, or watching his favorite home improvement show, “This Old House.”
