The Art of Historic Preservation in Goochland

Restoring historic properties requires a delicate balance of craftsmanship, sensitivity, and regulatory compliance. We meticulously restore and preserve original architectural features—such as brick facades, intricate woodwork, and period moldings—while integrating updated electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems for comfort and safety. Our approach ensures that the historic character remains intact, fostering community pride and aesthetic value.

Our Restoration and Preservation Services

Exterior Restoration: Preservation of facades, brickwork, and architectural details unique to Goochland.

Interior Preservation: Restoring original interior details, such as moldings and woodwork, while upgrading critical systems.

Structural Reinforcement: Strengthening historic frameworks while maintaining authenticity.

Adaptive Reuse Projects: Transforming historic buildings into modern retail, residential, or community spaces, all while respecting their historic veneer.

Navigating Local Incentives and Regulations

Goochland County recognizes the value of its historic assets and offers various programs to support preservation efforts, including:

Historic Preservation Tax Credits: Incentives for restoring and rehabilitating historic structures, including certified historic properties.
Conservation Easements: Property owners can donate easements that protect historic features and qualify for significant tax advantages.
Property Tax Exemptions and Reassessments: Partial exemptions or lower assessments for historic properties, helping reduce ongoing costs.
Grants and Funding Opportunities: State and federal grants, such as the Virginia Department of Historic Resources’ programs, provide supplementary financial support.

Hunnicutt Construction’s experience working within Goochland’s regulatory environment and securing incentives streamlines your project from planning to completion.

It's not often you find a GEM in a small city with big ideas. Hunnicutt Construction is that GEM. Time is money in this industry and wasting Tim on excuses or empty promises is a practice no one can afford. I enjoy their direct communication and taking ownership of their work. These are the foundations of the RIGHT firm you want to work with.

I would absolutely recommend Hunnicutt Construction to anyone. I was completely blown away by the high level of commitment and communication that I received before, during, and after my project. The owners worked on my behalf to keep costs as reasonable as possible, helping me stick within my budget. The work was well supervised and was done in a timely manner. It was managed with ease & I was kept informed every step of the way. A wonderful company to work with.

The project Hunnicutt Construction completed for us was a complicated mixed-use (restaurant/residential), historic tax credit renovation in Jackson Ward. The Hunnicutt team took great care in preparing a budget that was free from excess. Their tradesmen were proficient with our many highly specific standards and expectations. Hunnicutt was highly communicative & immediately responsive; maximizing productivity and efficiency while minimizing change orders and cost overruns. Hunnicutt's dedicated & personally invested team ensured out project was completed to our exact standards, within budget, and in a timely manner, all while minimizing the owner's stress levels.
