Our Roots:

From McKellar Construction to Wildwood Barn Builders

We began in 2022 as McKellar Construction, a full-service construction company created to give back to the West Michigan community that shaped us. From home remodels and additions to barns, we took on a wide range of projects. Over time, we discovered where our skills & passion truly aligned; crafting barns, detached garages, & accessory buildings that serve real purpose for the people who use them.
Now as Wildwood Barn Builders, our mission is clear:

Create meaningful spaces that foster fulfillment and personal growth.

"To be a part of something bigger than ourselves. Making an impact in our community, with our clients, and within our team itself. We strive to be more than barn builders. Growing a little bit every day to become the best partners, fathers, and carpenters we can be."
