by | Mar 7, 2022 | Design, Green Building

SawHorse has been a go-to brand in the Atlanta market for renovations and custom new homes for over 40 years. With over 100 awards ranging from design, leadership, and construction at the local and national levels. While awards show excellence, our value proposition is continued improvement and progress with the design + build community.

Our Journey to High Performance

Individual Leadership

Matt Hoots, President of SawHorse, served in the United States Marine Corps, then studied design and building construction at GA Tech. His passion for building started at an early age. In elementary school, he built a model of a passive solar house and a functional solar oven for cooking food. His mother taught him about environmental impact and recycling, while his father taught him about being a good steward of natural and financial resources. As a husband father of 3 boys (and a dog), Matt wants to make sure sustainable construction takes hold in Atlanta.

Corporate Leadership

For over four decades, SawHorse has been known as the “Sign of Renovation in Your Neighborhood.” We have helped bring concepts such as {design + build} and {green + remodeling} to the Atlanta market. We have also witnessed many local and world events over the decades that have helped us evolve and influenced our growth in this industry.

These events have helped shape our process, design, and product offerings. Given current world conflicts over resources, our mission is to continue to create high-performance houses that are healthy, energy-efficient, comfortable, and resilient.
