Born and raised in Damascus, Maryland, Chad is the middle son of Tom and Marylan. He, his wife Jennifer, and their two fantastic children have resided on Oak Island for over 20 years. Chad attended UNC-Chapel Hill as a student athlete and was awarded two varsity letters for Wrestling and Ice Hockey. Collecting an ACC Championship for wrestling for the 1992-93 seasons, Chad has proven to possess that driving spirit that winners are made of. Although majoring in Computer Science, he realized that working with his hands and building is what he truly longed for. He landed a job in the construction field and never looked back.
After working his way up the ladder from laborer to project manager, Chad decided it was time to take control of his destiny and started his own company. In 2005, after getting his License for General Contracting, Chad founded McCullough Construction Inc. and turned his attention to building unique, well-appointed, custom piling homes. Chad prides himself on his hands-on approach to building. He constructs the entire house from the pilings up with the help of one other craftsman.
Now, an exciting new chapter unfolds for Chad as his son Ethan joins McCullough Construction Inc. to form a dynamic father-son partnership. With a shared passion for craftsmanship and a commitment to upholding the legacy of quality that defines McCullough Construction Inc., Chad and Ethan are poised to elevate the company to new heights. Together, they will continue to build handcrafted homes, with Chad's expertise and Ethan's fresh perspective ensuring that every detail, from the framing to the trim work, reflects the dedication and skill of this family business.
