The Yonkman Difference
Your dream guided by proven processes, combined with quality and expert craftsmanship which produces stunning, beautiful results that last.
Yonkman Construction has earned an unparalleled reputation in Skagit and Island County for innovative design as well as exacting craftsmanship and integrity in all aspects of the client/builder relationship. We recognize that each client and their desires are unique. Some require start-to-finish, turnkey construction, while others wish to do some of the work themselves. With Yonkman Construction, you choose the level of service you need.
​
We offer pre-construction site and feasibility studies, permit processing, and complete or partial home design, interior design, and construction; whatever your building budget and goals are, Yonkman Construction will guide you step by step through the process.
​
We believe project success comes from open, thoughtful two-way communication. Whether you live down the street or across the country and are relocating to Skagit or Island County, the Yonkman team possesses the communications technology, proven processes, and passion to partner with you to make your new home, renovation or office uniquely yours.
"After a thorough search for a custom home builder on Whidbey Island who had a reputation for creative design development, good workmanship, integrity and timely and effective client/builder communications ( since we would be 3000 miles away during the building process) we chose Yonkman Construction to build our home and have not had a moments regret. Scott made us feel comfortable and at ease from the very beginning. We were kept informed of the process via email and photos. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail is of the highest quality. Having now lived in our home for three plus years, there is nothing we would change. Scott, Greg, and the whole Yonkman team made the building of our new home a very positive experience. Blessings to you and your team."
Our Story
After several years of custom home building in Orange County, Southern California, the partnership of Scott and Greg Yonkman moved to Whidbey Island and established Yonkman Construction in 1979. The firm weathered the difficult economy of the early '80s and has grown steadily through the years.
​
In late 2020 Scott and Greg Yonkman determined it was time to hand off the ownership and leadership of the company they had founded. At the beginning of 2021, Yonkman Construction was sold to a long-time and key employee, Curtis Banta.
​
Scott and Greg will continue with the company as employees and advisors for the foreseeable future.
​
Curtis' vision is to preserve the Yonkman Construction tradition of building quality custom homes keeping with the reputation built by Scott and Greg and continue to build that reputation in the years to come.
