UPSTATE SC - HOMES + OUTDOOR LIVING

About Us

At Grander Construction, located in the Upstate of South Carolina, building isn’t just what we do—it’s who we are. As a trusted custom home builder and residential construction company, we’re known for delivering high-quality craftsmanship, professional service, and reliable project execution.

Founded by Micah Barney—an experienced construction professional with over a decade in the industry—Grander Construction stands out with a hands-on, in-house approach. Unlike other builders who rely heavily on subcontractors, our team manages most of the work directly, ensuring better quality control and a smoother client experience.

Micah’s passion for construction began early, shaped by a family legacy in the trades. With a Bachelor’s degree in Construction Management from North Dakota State University and experience across various project types, he established Grander Construction to bring integrity and precision to every build.

We proudly serve the Greenville, Greer, and greater Upstate South Carolina region, specializing in custom homes, garage builds, outdoor living spaces, and more. Whether you’re planning a new build or a specialized addition, Grander Construction is your partner for results built with purpose.
