I was born in South Carolina and raised in North Carolina, where I learned early that your word, your handshake, and how you treat people still matter.
When I started Hearth & Stone, I wanted to build something bigger than an outdoor living company. I wanted to build a business where customers become friends, promises mean something, and relationships last long after the work is finished.
I know what it means to work hard for what you have, and I don’t take it lightly when someone trusts us with their home or their hard-earned money.
You’ll always get an honest conversation, a personal approach, and someone who genuinely cares about the outcome of your project.
My goal isn’t to earn one job. It’s to earn your trust for a lifetime.
That’s the kind of business I believe in, and that’s the kind of business we’re building.
Joe Hamrick
Founding Project Manager / Builder
Joe Hamrick brings the experience of a seasoned builder, the eye of a craftsman, and the kind of work ethic that’s becoming harder to find.
For Joe, building isn’t just about getting a project finished. It’s about taking pride in every detail, doing things the right way, and creating something a homeowner can enjoy with confidence for years to come.
He understands that the quality of a project is often determined by the things you don’t see: the preparation, the precision, and the care put into every step.
Joe believes that doing something right the first time is always better than rushing to get it done.
I trust Joe with our customers’ homes because I trust his character just as much as his craftsmanship.
And when you welcome him onto your property, I want you to feel that same confidence.
Joe doesn’t just want to finish your project. He wants to build something we’re all proud to put our names on.
