What we build

We take on the whole job — clearing and digging the site, putting the structure up, running the plumbing and finishing the inside. One crew, start to finish.

New construction

Ground-up builds on your lot. We handle the dig, the foundation prep, framing and the finish work, and we keep you in the loop at every stage so there are no surprises when you walk through it.

  • Site clearing and grading
  • Foundation and framing
  • Rough-in through final finish
More about new construction

Home additions

Extra bedroom, bigger kitchen, a garage or a second story. We tie new square footage into the existing structure and roofline so it reads as part of the original house.

More about additions

Remodeling

Kitchens, bathrooms, basements and whole-house updates. We work in occupied homes every week and clean up the site at the end of each day.

More about remodeling

Site work and the dirty end of the job

The same equipment and crew that prep our own builds are available on their own, whether you need a hole dug, a load hauled off, or a line run.

Excavation

Digging, backfill, grading, footings, trenching and lot prep — for our builds or as a standalone job on yours.

Excavation details

Dump truck hauling

Hauling in dirt, rock and fill, and hauling out spoil and demolition debris. Available by the load.

Hauling details

Plumbing by Paul’s Plumbing

Services

Six things we do, and we do them on the same job site. That is the point of running a construction company and a plumbing company side by side — you are not chasing four contractors to finish one house.

Above grade

New construction

We build houses from a bare lot up. That starts with clearing and grading, goes through foundation, framing and roof, and ends with you turning a key. Because our own crew runs the excavator and our own plumber sets the lines, the schedule does not stall waiting on somebody else’s truck.

You get one point of contact from the first estimate to the final walkthrough.

Call about this

What it covers

  • Lot clearing, grading and site prep
  • Foundation and framing
  • Plumbing rough-in by Paul’s Plumbing
  • Interior finish, trim and fixtures

Above grade

Home additions

When the house is right but there is not enough of it: an extra bedroom, a bigger kitchen, a master suite, a garage, a sunroom or a second story. The hard part of an addition is making it look like it was always there, and that comes down to matching the roofline, the siding and the trim.

We handle footings and foundation for the new section, tie into the existing structure, and run the mechanicals through to finish.

Call about this

What it covers

  • Room, kitchen and master suite additions
  • Garages and sunrooms
  • Second-story and bump-out additions
  • Footings, framing, roof tie-in and finish

Above grade

Remodeling

Kitchens, bathrooms, basements and whole-house updates. Most remodels happen in a house somebody is still living in, so we work clean, keep the dust contained and pick the site up at the end of every day.

Having our own plumber matters most here — moving a sink or adding a basement bathroom stops being a scheduling problem.

Call about this

What it covers

  • Kitchen and bathroom remodels
  • Basement finishing
  • Whole-house renovation
  • Flooring, trim, doors and fixtures

Below grade

Excavation

Dirt work for our own builds and as a standalone service for yours. If you need a hole dug, a pad cut, a lot leveled or a trench run, we have the machines and the operator.

Small residential jobs are welcome — we are not too big to come dig one footing.

Call about this

What it covers

  • Basement and footing excavation
  • Lot clearing, grading and leveling
  • Trenching for water, sewer and utilities
  • Backfill, driveways and drainage

Below grade

Dump truck hauling

Material in, material out. We haul dirt, rock, gravel, sand and fill to your property, and take away spoil, brush and demolition debris.

Available by the load whether or not we are doing the rest of the work.

Call about this

What it covers

  • Dirt, rock, gravel and fill delivery
  • Spoil and demolition debris removal
  • Driveway rock and base material
  • By the load, or as part of a larger job

A family business, out of Union

G n H Construction LLC is owned and run by Greg Hansel and family. We work out of Union, Missouri, and cover Franklin County, St. Louis County and the counties around them.

We have spent years doing every part of this trade — running the excavator, pouring the footings, framing the walls, setting the fixtures. That is the reason we can take a project from a bare lot to a finished house without handing it off to four different outfits. It also means that when you call, you are talking to the people who will actually be standing on your property.

Paul’s Plumbing runs alongside the construction side. Having a plumber in the family business is not a sales line; it is the difference between a remodel that waits three weeks for a rough-in and one that keeps moving.

Estimates are free. Our pricing is fair for the work. And we will tell you straight if a job is not the right fit for us.

Families building their first house, adding on as they grow, or finally doing the kitchen.

How far we travel

Based in Union, Missouri 63084. We work throughout Franklin and St. Louis counties and the surrounding counties — see the full list.

What to have ready when you call

None of this is required, but it helps us give you a straighter answer on the first call.

Where the job is

The town or county is enough to start.

What you are after

A new build, an addition, a remodel, dirt work, hauling or plumbing.

Rough timing

Whether you are ready now or planning for a few months out.

Anything already drawn

Plans, sketches or photos, if you have them.

Common questions

What areas do you serve?

We are based in Union, Missouri and work across Franklin County and St. Louis County, plus St. Charles, Jefferson, Warren, Gasconade, Crawford and Washington counties. If you are near the edge of that, call and ask.

Do you charge for estimates?

No. Estimates are free. Call or text 636-234-8180 and describe the project.

What payment methods do you take?

Cash, check and credit cards. We will go over the payment schedule for your job when we give you the estimate.

Do you build new homes from the ground up?

Yes. We build on your lot and handle site clearing and grading, foundation, framing, plumbing rough-in and interior finish with one crew, from the first estimate to the final walkthrough.

Do you handle all the trades, or do I need other contractors?

Yes, we handle the whole job. Framing, roofing, siding, plumbing, electrical and the finish work all run through us, so you are not lining up four separate contractors to get one house done. Paul’s Plumbing covers the plumbing on every build, addition and remodel we take on, and also takes plumbing-only calls on its own.

Are you insured?

Yes, we carry insurance, and we are a chamber member.

Will you take small jobs?

Yes. We are not too big to dig one footing, haul a single load of rock, or remodel one bathroom.

What are your hours?

Monday through Friday, 7:00am to 4:00pm. Call or text 636-234-8180 or 314-413-3586, or email gnhconstruction20@gmail.com.
