category at all levels at the 2023 Master Builders Awards. “The split-level home in Spring Mountain was a different design for us,” Mark says. “We have been doing Hamptons style homes a lot but for this one we branched out into a modern, square façade with bolder colors and different textures. It won us a regional, state and finally a national 2023 award.” The Hancock family is entering another project for next year’s awards, from the same area. Jarred describes that project as having a more modern Hamptons style. “We tried some different textures with cladding and Venetian plaster for a Boho twist,” he says. “There’s also a swimming pool and outdoor living area. The lot was double the size of the norm for that area so we took advantage of the yard.” Joel believes the Master Builders are a useful organization to be part of, as it helps the company to make connections and get their name out there – especially now that they’ve won awards and they can use their logo on their advertising. “They have a lot of good resources we can lean on if we have questions about contracts or building practices,” he says. “We do all our contracts through Master Builders and they’ve been a really good point of contact, especially through all the recent law changes we’ve had in building. We can lean on them and ask questions.” As a traditional builder, Hancock Homes maintains strong ties with their suppliers. “I used Corinthian for my first house back in 1991,” says Mark. “I’ve never used another company for interior fittings since. A lot of our subcontractors are second generation. Their dads worked for me.” Discover expert design advice and inspiration tailored to your unique needs.
