Who Are We


Hi, I’m John McQuillan Owner of North Elevation.

NORTH ELEVATION was founded in 2003 and my first job was installing a tile backsplash for a friend. For more than two decades I have been inspired by the smiles of homeowners and driven by the challenge of doing something better. The commitment to take whatever I was working on to a higher level has served me well in life. It’s a privilege to build dreams, and easily the most rewarding thing I have ever done. It’s why the best home builders do what we do.

Serendipity - In 2013 we met well known architect Charles R. Stinson and somehow managed to build our dream home that he designed. That profound experience forged my love of modern architecture and fueled my desire to build inspired custom homes for others.

Why NORTH ELEVATION? - Custom homes are functional works of art. A fusion of inspired design and purpose, each is tailor made to reflect your style and unique values. We are committed to collaborating with you, your architect and designer to create the perfect expression of your lifestyle and sensibilities. Understanding what is most important and providing the best value to you is important to building the home of your dreams.
