Chad D. Collins, AMB, MCGP, CAPS has been a licensed general contractor and new home builder in Durham, Chapel Hill and Hillsborough since 1997, transforming clients' dreams into elegant, fashionable, timeless homes while building a reputation for skilled craftsmanship, superior quality, and incomparable client service. Chad has focused his professional career with an emphasis in new home construction, home remodeling, additions and home inspection in Durham, Hillsborough and Chapel Hill area in North Carolina. Chad's commitment to excellence has earned him numerous top housing industry awards, including the coveted Triangle Sales and Marketing Council's MAME Building Company of the Year in 2007 and 2008.
From the outset of his career, Chad quickly impressed others with his professionalism, integrity, and astute operations and management skills. While in high school and college, Chad worked part time with home improvement retailers and building material suppliers, which opened opportunities to work for regional and national home builders throughout much of the 1990s. Chad capitalized on his experiences to acquire considerable industry knowledge and to forge strong relationships.
Chad distinguished himself by developing processes, tools, and quality-driven teams that cut annual costs, reduced project completion time and decreased attrition. As a result, Chad advanced to increasingly responsible positions. Evidence of his talent for coaching and leading teams is that some of the team members he developed continue to work with him.
Following that success, Chad played an important role in helping a national home building company establish operations and a market presence in the Triangle area. His efforts in closing just under $6,000,000 in custom homes in a single year earned Chad the "2001 Builder of the Year Award."

Everybody at the board room table may be willing to nod and agree to anything that is said. Everybody but one. And fortunately for us - or all the members of the HBA - he wanted questions answered before he let anything come to a vote. As loyal in his attendance as he was diligent in his duty to inquire, only a house closing kept him away from a board meeting. One. In two years. He is so consistently a part of our membership meetings that we may cancel if he doesn't sign up. When it came time to solicit BuildPAC contributions from Board members, we found that his pledge was made and paid before others could reach for their wallets. With everything that is going on in his life, it is nothing short of amazing that he could devote as much time and passion to the HBA as he has - but he has, so the 2007 Director of the Year is Chad Collins, Collins design-Build, Inc.

“Chad used his left brain to work through the technicalities of the remodel, and used his right brain and creative vision to transform my house into a beautiful, artful home. He looked around and came up with imaginative solutions that made my home much more livable and a place I really enjoy. It was a marvel to see the transformation. I feel fortunate to be the beneficiary of Chad’s vision.” |

The energy efficiency of the house has made it very comfortable through some very extreme weather and our energy bills have been remarkably low. I cannot believe how well we did on energy costs every month. The energy star rating of the home has really paid off. Truly, I haven’t had energy costs this low in 20 years. |

“We were originally hesitant about building a custom house since we had barely any knowledge about home-building. After we visited one of Chad’s model homes, we decided to build a similar home. Now, whenever we recall the whole journey, we are very satisfied with our interactions with Chad. He is, in our eyes, a very professional, skillful, and conscientious builder. He is passionate about his job and is willing to patiently work with the family to create a custom home. We respect him as a home-builder and feel very lucky to have him build our dream house!” |
