Our Home Building Commitment to Bunker Hill, West Virginia
Choosing to build a custom home is one of the most exciting investments you’ll ever make. At Hepler Homes, we believe the experience should be just as rewarding as the finished home itself.
Since 1994, our family-owned company has helped homeowners throughout West Virginia and the Northern Shenandoah Valley design and build custom homes that reflect their lifestyles, personalities, and long-term goals. We understand that every family is different, which is why every home we build is thoughtfully planned around the people who will live there.

Meet Dave Hepler
Owner and founder Dave Hepler has been building custom homes since 1994. His hands-on approach, attention to detail, and decades of construction experience have helped hundreds of families throughout the region build homes that reflect their vision while maintaining exceptional quality.
Rather than handing projects off to someone else, Dave remains actively involved throughout construction, helping homeowners make informed decisions from planning through completion. It’s one of the reasons so many Hepler Homes clients refer their friends and family.
Building on Your Own Land
Already own property in Bunker Hill? Great. Building on your own land requires careful planning before construction begins.
Our team evaluates:
- Topography
- Soil conditions
- Drainage
- Utilities
- Well and septic requirements
- Driveway access
- Easements
- Setbacks
- Home orientation
- Tree preservation
- Site grading
Evaluating these factors early helps create a more efficient building process while avoiding unnecessary expenses later.
If you haven’t purchased land yet, we’re happy to help you understand what to look for before making that investment.
Built With Quality From the Ground Up
Quality construction begins long before the finishes are installed. Every Hepler Home is built with careful attention to craftsmanship during every phase of construction. From excavation and framing to mechanical systems, insulation, cabinetry, flooring, trim, and final details, we work alongside trusted trade partners who share our commitment to excellence. We also incorporate modern building practices and energy-efficient materials designed to improve comfort, durability, and long-term performance.
Our goal is to build a home that performs as beautifully years from now as it does on move-in day.
Flexible Home Designs
Every family starts the building process differently. Some clients bring detailed architectural plans. Others begin with one of our existing floor plans. Many simply have ideas. No matter where you’re starting, we’ll help develop a home that complements your property, budget, and lifestyle.
Whether you’re looking for a farmhouse, Craftsman, ranch home, luxury estate, or transitional design, we can help bring your ideas to life.
