The Dream Team

Founded in 1999, DreamBuilt was created with the mission of enhancing the lives of clients and shaping a better lake community. With an approach focused on thoughtful design, quality construction, and craftsmanship of our work, DreamBuilt homes stand out in the landscape of Lake Oconee.

The four original Dreambuilt partners chose to move to the lake with their young families from various design and construction backgrounds in Atlanta. Jim and Paige Ruhl & Derek and Ann Welch set out to foster partnerships in the community with clients and trades to create a reputation of uncompromising excellence, always. As the lake community has grown, Dreambuilt has expanded its partnership to grow alongside it. The addition of Jep Pound and Haley Ruhl has allowed our business to continue to serve all clients - past, present and future - to the exceptional standard of personal attention and thoughtfulness that Dreambuilt was founded on.
