Our culture

Family oriented

Established in 2011 by brothers Derek, Ned, and Levi, Finmark has been designing and building homes with partnerships at the forefront. Working with us means joining the Finmark family. As a locally owned and operated business, we continuously invest in our relationships, providing the highest quality experience, transparency, and authenticty.

“We believe our family approach to business is our greatest strength, and every team member is part of the Finmark family. With family comes trust, hard work, competitiveness, and honesty. Growing up in a family of fourteen children, we learned the importance of these values. Dad and Mom taught us work ethic from the minute we were tying our own shoes. Along with being raised with strong values, we were raised in the construction world. Construction is what we know - and honestly - it's our passion. With Finmark, you’re not paying for a contractor, you’re joining the family, a family that prides itself on a history of timeless quality and pride of heritage.”

- Derek Oja, Founder

We emphasize the value of strong relationships with our clients, team members, and trusted trade partners to come together to provide a lasting impression on your home, your ownership experience, and the lifelong memories you create in your space.

“Finmark will demonstrate continued professional leadership as a multi-generational, dynamic, innovative, inspiring residential construction company, committed to successful partnerships and employee well-being.”

Functional Spaces: Mudroom Transition

The function of a home to us is just as important as the aesthetics. Bringing a thoughtful design into the transitional spaces between the exterior environment and the warmth of the inside is no easy task, but we have found various solutions when considering this room.
