About us

Built in Chattanooga. Built for You.

At JDD Builders, we believe a home should be more than just walls and a roof—it should be a reflection of your story. Founded and led by Jon Deardorff, a lifelong Chattanoogan and University of Tennessee at Chattanooga alum, our company was born from a passion for woodworking, architecture, and the unique character of our city’s homes.

What started with an appreciation for local trees and custom furniture making has grown into a trusted general contracting firm specializing in:

  • Custom New Home Construction

  • Kitchen Remodeling

  • Master Bath Remodeling

  • Home Additions & Renovations

From the scenic ridges of Signal Mountain to the historic charm of St. Elmo, we’re proud to design and build homes that fit seamlessly into Chattanooga’s diverse neighborhoods.

Our Philosophy

We’re builders, but more importantly—we’re listeners. Every project begins with understanding your vision, your budget, and your lifestyle. That’s why our work is guided by three core principles:

Craftsmanship You Can See & Feel

Every detail matters, from the flow of natural light in your kitchen to the custom finishes in your master bath.

Communication You Can Trust

Construction shouldn’t be stressful. We keep you informed every step of the way, ensuring clarity, honesty, and confidence throughout the process.

Commitment to Chattanooga

This is our home, too. We source quality materials, respect local architecture, and design with our community in mind.

Why Homeowners Choose JDD Builders

Hear From Our Clients

  • “JDD Builders completely remodeled my bathroom, added a custom designed tile entryway to my main room, refinished the original oak floors, encapsulated the crawl space and hooked me up with new HVAC and ductwork. All this was done while I was still living in Nashville, and it was absolutely priceless to have someone I trusted working on it when I couldn’t be here. The results are fantastic, and he finished on time for me to move back in as planned. He and his associates are clean, detailed, punctual and reasonably priced. Alison S. -St. Elmo”

He is always punctual and communicates well with budget concerns and problems if they pop up. Jon is a very hard worker and his crews are very respectful of our needs as a family. Chris S-”
