Building with Vision, Quality, and Pride
About Us
We are Nick and Michelle Yegge, the heart behind Heartwood Residential Design + Build. Our journey began with a passion for creating high-quality remodels that inspire you to be your best self. We simplify the remodeling process for you, managing every phase with care and efficiency. Our goal is to transform your vision into a distraction-free haven, allowing you to focus on what matters most—living your best life in a space that reflects your unique self.

Our Story
Nick’s passion for building began during summer vacations, working alongside contractors and carrying on a proud family tradition as a fourth-generation builder. His experience framing for a high-end custom homebuilder taught him best practices, meticulous planning, and the value of clear communication—skills that shaped Heartwood Residential’s craftsmanship and process-driven approach.
Michelle joined as a project coordinator, quickly rising to head designer, where her confidence, creativity, and work ethic became a hallmark of the company’s success. Although she later stepped back from her role to focus on raising their three children, Michelle continues to lend her design insight and support behind the scenes.
Together, Nick and Michelle blend family values with professional excellence, leading Heartwood Residential with authenticity, expertise, and a shared commitment to designing exceptional homes for their community.
