Who we are
At JHI Construction, we build more than homes—we build trust, creativity, and spaces designed to last.
Led by founder Jeff Huguelet, a hands-on general contractor with over 25 years of experience, JHI specializes in high-end custom homes, hillside builds, and full-scale renovations across Southern California.
Our projects are marked by structural intelligence, precise craftsmanship, and seamless integration of smart technology.
Jeff’s background spans both residential and commercial construction—from private wellness clubs and retail spaces to multi-unit developments and complex hillside homes. This breadth of experience allows us to approach every project with a deep understanding of form, function, and innovation. Whether it’s designing around a steep slope, integrating custom millwork, or crafting a hidden spa retreat, we thrive on challenges that push our creativity and expertise.
What Sets Us apart
Hands-On Leadership – Jeff stays involved from kickoff to completion, personally attending project meetings and navigating design challenges alongside you.
Clear Communication – We believe trust is built through transparency. You’ll never be left in the dark.
Tailored Execution – Every project is unique. We treat each home with care and precision, bringing smart, creative solutions to complex builds.
