Frequently Asked Questions
How many years has Spratlin Construction been operating?
Dean Spratlin Construction Inc. was founded in 1972, which puts the company at fifty-three years in continuous operation. That is among the longest tenures of any residential builder in the Auburn market. Across that span, the firm has worked through multiple economic cycles, code revisions, and stylistic eras in custom homes, and it has maintained the same family name and operating base throughout.
Where is Spratlin Construction's office in Auburn?
Spratlin Construction operates from 2487 Gunston Court in Auburn, ZIP 36832. The Gunston Court office is the firm's working base for design, estimating, and project coordination. From there, project managers route to active job sites across Auburn and Opelika. The office line at (334) 887-5279 routes inquiries about new construction, remodels, and additions through the firm's internal scheduling.
Is Spratlin Construction a multi-generation business?
Yes. Spratlin Construction was founded in 1972 by Dean Spratlin and has continued as a multi-generation Auburn custom home builder. Multi-generation in the residential construction context typically means founder, second-generation operations or carpentry leadership, and continuity in subcontractor relationships across that handoff. That continuity is part of how a firm in this category sustains its reputation across decades rather than fading after the founder steps back.
What does Spratlin's Houzz portfolio show?
Spratlin Construction is featured on Houzz with extensive project galleries showcasing renovations and new builds. Those galleries function as a working portfolio: photographic walkthroughs of finished kitchens, baths, exteriors, and full custom homes the firm has delivered. For prospective clients, browsing the Houzz portfolio is one of the most efficient ways to gauge whether the firm's design sensibility matches what they want for their own project.
Does Spratlin handle outdoor living spaces?
Yes. Spratlin Construction builds outdoor living spaces as part of its menu, alongside custom homes and whole-home remodels. Outdoor living scope typically includes covered porches, patios, outdoor kitchens, and seamless transitions between the existing home and the new exterior space. As a residential general contractor, the firm coordinates the structural, electrical, plumbing, and finish work under one project rather than making the homeowner manage separate trades.
What is design-build at Spratlin Construction?
Design-build at Spratlin Construction means the firm carries both the design coordination and the construction under one project umbrella. For homeowners doing a custom home or a major remodel, that translates to fewer handoffs between separate architects and builders. Spratlin's fifty-plus years of Auburn experience inform the design phase by flagging what builds well in the local climate, on local lots, and with the firm's established subcontractor base.
