Who we REALLY are…

Milander & Co has been many things over the past 18 years. We have been a one person office and we have been a 12 person office. We have worked with over 20 different general contractors in 5 different states. We have completed over 60 projects totaling over $300M in construction. We have designed and project managed the construction of small residences and luxury resorts. We have sat for countless hours behind our computer, but we have also worn our tool belts and waded through the muck of construction.

Through it all there has been only one constant…Pam and John. We are real people living and growing on a small farm in Tennessee. Although we are the soul of Milander & Co. we could not do what we do without an amazing team of architects, designers, builders, and OF COURSE clients.

We can never thank y’all enough!

-Pam and John (and Mochi, Paddy and Sammy)
