Background

About Chris Long

Chris Long separates himself from other General Contractors with his divergent path. After first graduating from Lebanon Valley College with a Bachelor’s Degree in Education, Chris started his early career as a teacher. He taught young, aspiring students and enjoyed being a positive role model for them. During the summers when he was off, Chris supplemented his teaching income by trying his hand at carpentry and home improvement side gigs. Chris was bolstered by the support of requests for work from his friends, that quickly grew into referrals, and later; word of mouth new clients. As the opportunities grew, Chris had a difficult decision to make. Either stick through with his initial trajectory of a stable job as a teacher or follow his gift and build his dream in the trades. With entrepreneurial spirit and sheer grit, he took the leap to turn his side gig into a full-time business. Chris is proud of his $18M+ completed projects that span from New Construction Custom Build homes, to additions, in- law suites, and countless kitchen, bathroom, and basement renovations. Chris has recently started offering Whiskey Lounge Builds (ask him to show you pictures of his OWN lounge or give him an opportunity to humbly brag about his kids and wife). Chris chalks up much of his success to his incredible, assembled team of skilled and seasoned industry professionals who embrace a culture of uncompromised customer service, white glove assurance, and quality craftsmanship. He also relies on his trustworthy network of strategic designers, suppliers, and sub-contractors (when needed) to deliver precisely what each client wants. With over 23 years of success in Residential Construction, Remodeling, and Design/Build, Chris Long & his Team at Long Custom Building & Remodeling have been delighting Delaware Valley clients by bringing a measure of "white glove" comfort and ease to the uneasy demolition and renovation experience.
