Leadership

Barry Zuckerman
Barry, a lifelong DC resident, grew up in construction before founding his own company in 1981. Since then, Barry has built hundreds of homes for local families, bringing to each one the Zuckerman legacy of quality craftsmanship.

Eric Zuckerman
Barry’s son, Eric, joined the company after earning an MBA from the University of Maryland. Blending business expertise with a keen eye for detail, he brings a fresh perspective to every project while upholding the Zuckerman family’s high standards of excellence and unwavering commitment to customer satisfaction.

Joe Kimble
With over 40 years of experience in the construction industry, Joe brings unmatched skills to the team. Before joining Zuckerman Builders, he owned and operated Kimble Carpentry, where he developed a strong eye for detail and a deep commitment to craftsmanship. That same focus continues to guide his work today. Joe believes that every phase of a project should be done the right way, with care, precision, and uncompromising quality.

Our Philosophy

Our goal is simple: to deliver on your dreams while providing an exceptional experience from start to finish.

We partner with leading architects and designers, and work exclusively with top-tier contractors to ensure that what’s behind the walls reflects the same level of quality as the finishes — both meeting our exacting standards.

Building or renovating a home is a significant undertaking — one that requires trusted partners. It’s a responsibility we take to heart. There are many choices to make, options to explore, and factors to weigh. Through it all, we collaborate with you to create something truly special, with your vision leading the way.
