We are so thankful for Averi, and that we got to experience this with her! We wish her the best of luck at Mizzou next year, and will most definitely be tuning into Mizzou Women's Basketball games! Go Tigers!
Mizzou Women's Basketball Commit meets the Construction World
At Hemme Construction, we're different. Yes, we build beautiful homes of the utmost quality, but we are so much more than our product. We not only have a team here at Hemme, but a family! This past August, we had the privilege of taking on Averi Kroenke, a high school student at Rockbridge, as an intern for the semester. Averi chose Hemme Construction, "because I live in a Hemme Home, along with one of their subdivisions, Creek's Edge. I have loved all of the different homes that they have built, and I had an interest in architecture & home design; I wanted to see what their process was!"

What is one thing that you found interesting during your internship?
I found it interesting how they can remember and refer to every house they are building, or have built, buy a lot number!
What is one thing that you learned that you were surprised by?
It surprised me how small details, whether the wall corners are rounded, or straight or the slope of the roof, can really determine the price of a home.
How did the internship meet your expectations?
It exceeded my expectations! Everyone on staff was so welcoming and made me feel like an important part of the team. Everyday, Brooke and Emalee would have something interesting or new to do, and I have learned so much from them, along with everyone else who is apart of the Hemme team!
How would you describe the work environment here at Hemme Construction?
The environment at Hemme is very welcoming and fun! Everyday, the staff welcomes me with a smile and asks me how my day was going!
What is your favorite memory while interning for us?
My favorite memory was getting to tour all of the different houses Hemme is building and see all of the client's floor plans "come to life"!
What new skills, techniques, and knowledge did you gain this fall?
I have learned about the process of designing floor plans, interacting with customers, what materials to use based on a client's budget, to continually check with the construction crew to make sure the floor plan is being built correctly, and much more!
What was the most rewarding thing about working with Hemme Construction this fall?
Definitely the amazing relationships I have built with the Hemme staff, along with learning new things about home design and custom home building!
Would you recommend this internship to other students? Why or why not?
Yes! 100%! I have learned so much and they did everything they could to make sure I gained the experience that I was looking for! They took me to houses about to sell, ones that were in the framing stage, along with vendors to see how they pick out different interior decisions with a client. I also got to sit in on meetings, interact with clients, design floor plans, and so much more! I have gotten to do so much, and I am so thankful for this experience!
What do you believe is the next step in your career, and did Hemme help you get there?
Before entering this internship, I was very unsure of what I wanted to major in next year at Mizzou. This internship has shown me how much I enjoy designing homes along with floor plans, and I could definitely see myself doing something in this industry. Next year, I plan to major in something that allows me to pursue a career in this field!
Inspired and in love with our job,

With back-to-school season around the corner, now is the perfect time to plan your next home remodel or custom build. Hemme Construction makes it easy to create spaces that fit your family's routines — beautifully and intentionally.
It might still feel like peak summer, but in the world of home remodeling, we’re already looking ahead to fall. Why? Because the best remodels aren’t rushed—they’re thoughtfully planned, carefully designed, and strategically scheduled to minimize stress and maximize results.
At Hemme Construction, we build homes that reflect you—right down to the spice drawer. And nowhere is your personality more on display than in the heart of the home: the kitchen. Whether you’re a meal-prep master or just really like cheese boards, your dream kitchen says a lot more about you than you might think.
When it comes to remodeling your home, we get it—you want the best for your space. But too often, we see homeowners asking for “cheap” when they really want “quality.”
At Hemme Construction, we believe that you shouldn’t have to make that compromise. Remodeling is an investment, and while budget is important, the real question is: What kind of value are you getting for your money?
As homes across the country continue to age, remodeling is becoming more than just a trend—it's a smart investment. According to the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB) , the remodeling market is poised for steady growth over the next several years, driven largely by the increasing age of owner-occupied homes. At Hemme Construction, we’re seeing this trend play out locally as well. More homeowners are turning to remodeling as a way to improve functionality, boost energy efficiency, and modernize outdated spaces without the cost and hassle of moving. And it’s no wonder—NAHB reports that the median age of owner-occupied homes in the U.S. is now over 40 years. That means many homes are in need of upgrades to meet today’s lifestyle and performance expectations.
As the weather warms up and the days get longer, there’s no better time to take your living space outside. At Hemme Construction, we believe your outdoor space should feel like an extension of your home—functional, stylish, and uniquely you. Whether you're dreaming of cozy evenings under the stars or weekend BBQs with friends, our remodeling team is here to bring that vision to life.
Spring has sprung! The birds are chirping, the flowers are blooming, and your home is ready for a little TLC after a long winter. At Hemme Construction, we believe home maintenance should be as fresh and exciting as the season itself. So, grab your toolbelt (or get us on the phone) and let’s dive into these easy, feel-good home maintenance tips!
This Valentine’s Day, Hemme Construction is here to help you find your perfect match—not just in love, but in the home of your dreams! Just like relationships, homes come in different styles, and finding the right one depends on your needs, lifestyle, and vision. Whether you’re looking for a fully custom home, a remodeling transformation, or a move-in-ready turnkey property, we have the expertise to make your dream home a reality.
At Hemme Construction, we know that reality TV and actual reality are worlds apart—but the good news is, the real thing can be even better (and a lot less dramatic). Let’s pull back the curtain and compare the HGTV fantasy to what it’s really like to build your dream home with us!
As we step into 2025, the world of home construction and design continues to evolve, driven by technological advancements, sustainable practices, and shifting lifestyle needs. At Hemme Construction, we pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve to bring innovative and timeless solutions to our clients. Whether you’re building a new home or remodeling your current space, here are some key trends to watch for in 2025.
