Premium custom homes designed around your land, lifestyle, and long-term vision.

Heated shops, cold storage, pole barns, livestock buildings, and arenas sized for serious operations.

Amish craftsmanship roots

Many hands.
One standard.

The barn-raising tradition represents the work ethic behind Shetler’s Construction: coordinated crews, practical problem-solving, pride in the frame, and shared responsibility for a building made to last.

craftsmanship values

Owner-led design + build

35 years of construction experience. One accountable team.

Owner David Shetler works directly with clients to bring the entire project together—from early planning through construction. His Amish craftsmanship background, former Amish managers, and experienced crews create close coordination and a standard of workmanship shaped over decades.

For David, family ownership is personal. The buildings Shetler’s creates are planned for people who will live in them, work in them, and depend on them for years to come.

Premium design-build homes exceeding $1 million are a familiar part of our portfolio. Our largest completed project to date is a $2.5 million home-and-shop combination, and 100′×200′ riding arenas are a core capability—not an exception.

The Shetler’s difference after the build

We stand behind more than the labor.

Shetler’s written project warranties can address both workmanship and eligible materials when included in the signed agreement. We believe the builder should understand the products it specifies and installs—and remain a clear point of contact after completion.

Workmanship

Labor and field execution responsibilities are defined for the specific project.

Covered materials

Eligible material coverage can be included alongside workmanship—not treated as someone else’s problem.

Direct follow-through

Bring concerns back to the owner-led team for review against the written agreement.

Warranty scope, duration, exclusions, remedies, notice requirements, and manufacturer coverage vary by project and product. The signed project agreement controls.
