Mike von Behren founded Michael von Behren Builder, Inc. in 1982 after years of working for Robert E. von Behren, his father. For the first year, the company's offices were in the second floor sunroom of Mike and Cheri's home.
From there, we moved to the basement, and in the late 1980s, relocated everything to a rented office and warehouse space. In 1996, we built our 2,000 square foot office and 4,000 square foot warehouse-millshop.
Today, we're among the top custom home builders in Springfield, Illinois.
We love to listen. Our team is ready to get to know you and your family. Once we know you better and understand more about the home you want to live in, we'll get to work crafting long lasting, well appointed spaces just for your family. We believe in:

As your project gets underway, we'll take the lead the project and keep you well informed. There are a lot of decisions to make with home construction and remodeling projects! We'll help by presenting the options and explaining the pros and cons of each so you can make smart decisions with confidence.
