Founded in 1972 by Bob Dernehl, The Dernehl Company has spent more than five decades building custom luxury estates across the Atlanta area. With over 75 completed custom homes, the firm works with celebrities, business leaders, and innovators seeking high-end residential construction tailored to specific design visions.
Core services include custom home construction, luxury estates and mansions, home remodeling, home additions, commercial construction, luxury home design, and ICF concrete homes. The company’s process centers on four stated principles: accountability, attention to detail, communication, and transparency. Clients receive daily activity logs throughout construction, transparent billing practices, and an owner’s manual upon completion that details the materials and methods used in their specific home.
Projects featured in Atlanta Homes and Lifestyles magazine have included French estate-inspired residences with mahogany wine cellars, loggias with arched openings, and quatrefoil-shaped pools. The firm’s portfolio extends to unconventional commissions, including a backyard amphitheater, a luxury barn, and a private island construction for a client.
The Dernehl Company holds Georgia License No. RLQA003765 and can be reached at 770-933-8165. The business distinguishes itself from volume builders by emphasizing hands-on supervision at every construction phase, consultative design planning from the outset, and a commitment to solving complex building challenges through decades of accumulated experience.
For Atlanta-area clients seeking a fully custom approach to luxury residential construction, the firm offers nearly 50 years of metro-area project history, a magazine-published portfolio, and a structured, documented communication process designed to keep owners fully informed from groundbreaking through final delivery and move-in.
