Glaze Construction is a licensed general contractor firm specializing
in Design/Build remodeling and renovation projects, and custom homes
in the Hickory, North Carolina area. As with all reputable contractors,
we are fully insured and carry worker’s compensation as well as general
liability insurance.
Unlike most contractors, Gene Glaze did not begin his professional life
as a contractor. Instead, he graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill in 1989
with a B.S. in Pharmacy and practiced for the following nine years.
After deciding to pursue his true calling, Gene spent three years
working for Habitat for Humanity where, in addition to acting as their
general contractor, he trained and supervised work site volunteers.
Gene currently serves on the Remodeler’s Council of Greater Hickory and the Green Building Council, and sits on the Board of Directors of the Home Builder’s Association of Hickory & Catawba Valley. He also is a firm believer in the importance of continuing education and holds both the Certified Graduate Remodeler and Graduate Master Builder designations from the National Association of Home Builders.





Glaze Construction is committed to offer our clients individualized solutions that are based on their wants, needs AND on their budget. Our primary goal is simple: to provide customer service that consistently exceeds your expectations. We accomplish this the old fashioned way of doing what we say we will do, listening to your concerns, and keeping you informed during all phases of the project.
Our attention to detail provides the high level of quality, craftsmanship and value that defines us. We stand behind our work with an in-house warranty where we take a proactive approach by contacting you at thirty days, six months, and eleven months after the project is complete in order to identify any issues that need to be resolved.
At Glaze Construction, we believe that remodeling your home should not be the most stressful event of your life, and our proven process is a testament to that. By providing you with the comprehensive approach of Design/Build services, we design your project within your budget while providing you with one single person who is responsible from design through construction and warranty. This level of involvement allows us to quote a fixed price cost for your project so you know the true cost before you begin. This is the reason we are an award-winning company.
We hope that you find our way of business to be a refreshing change. Please contact us when we can be of assistance with your next project.
