About the Owners:
Billy Orr: Billy has been in the construction business for over fifteen years. Billy began working as a
prep man on a painting crew. After years of prepping and painting trim and walls, Billy figured out that
the keys to an exceptional paint job begins with exceptional drywall and finishes with the trim. In order
to improve his paint jobs, he began by improving the drywall and began adding to his business and
business experience. It is his belief that a turn-key job is of the utmost importance and produces the
best work. Billy’s work has since grown to include commercial drywall and paint projects and complete
custom home-building with his partner Chris Hylton.
Billy lives and works in the Roanoke Valley. It is his love of this area that keeps him here to raise his
family. He is an avid member of his Church and within his community as well. On weekends you can
catch him volunteering for Church projects, spending time with his family, or enjoying the beauty of his
native Roanoke.
Chris Hylton: Chris has been in the construction business for close to fifteen years. But if you ask him,
he would probably say that it felt closer to thirty. He started out by framing houses during the day and
he would hang sheet-rock at night in order to support his family. After honing his skills in the framing
and drywall business, Chris felt that the finest quality work could only be completed by one contractor
who was capable of seeing the job through from start to finish. He then decided to branch out and grow his company in order to serve clients and architects better. After meeting Billy Orr, he felt that this was his opportunity establish a larger custom home-building and commercial contracting business. Even though Chris now spends his time managing projects and his business, he always takes time to visit his projects so that all clients receive the best possible craftsmanship.
Chris has lived in the Roanoke Valley for over twenty years. He has grown accustomed to spending time hunting and hiking in the mountains or fishing the surrounding lakes and streams. You can always catch him out with his family and friends or doing home improvements on his own house.
