Why Choose Blue Hen Construction to Build Your Elevated Piling Home

Choosing the right builder makes all the difference when it comes to coastal homes in Delaware. At Blue Hen Construction, we combine expertise, craftsmanship, and a deep understanding of coastal construction to ensure your elevated piling home is both beautiful and built to last.

Here’s what sets us apart:

Compliance with FEMA Regulations

Navigating floodplain regulations can be complex. We ensure that your new home meets or exceeds all Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) floodplain requirements, giving you peace of mind that your investment is secure and compliant with federal standards.

Elevated Homes With Enhanced Protection Against Elements

Coastal living brings unique weather conditions, including storms, high tides, and heavy rains. Our elevating piling homes are built using durable, weather-resistant materials and hurricane-resistant construction methods. This ensures your home stands strong against nature's challenges.

Wise Use of Property

Elevating your home is a great way to utilize space in waterfront or low-lying properties that might otherwise be unusable. We can create a design that allows for optional under-home storage or garage spaces, providing additional functionality without compromising aesthetics.

Designed for Coastal Beauty and Lasting Value

A custom piling beach home is more than just a place to live—it’s an investment in a timeless coastal lifestyle. Built to complement waterfront settings, our elevated homes feature distinctive architectural designs, including wraparound decks and elevated outdoor living spaces that maximize panoramic views, fresh sea breezes, and stunning sunsets. Designed with both aesthetics and functionality in mind, these homes offer long-term value while providing the perfect retreat for generations to come.

Tailored to Your Lifestyle

Your elevated home should suit your needs and preferences. We offer custom features like elevators for accessibility, spacious wraparound decks, covered parking, storm-resistant materials, and flexible floor plans—all designed to enhance coastal living. Whether you want panoramic views, energy-efficient options, or smart-home technology, we’ll help create a home that’s both functional and beautiful.

Stylish Exterior Staircases and Entryways

We design stylish and functional staircases that enhance both curb appeal and accessibility. Choose from options like custom railings, integrated lighting, and architectural details that create a welcoming and distinctive entrance to your elevated home.
