Boone, NC

A Watauga County native from the community of Sugar Grove, Doug McGuire was raised by his father, and is number four out of five siblings. After graduating from Watauga High School, Doug worked for his uncles, Waters Brothers Construction & Grading, operating heavy equipment and driving a dump truck. As part of the grading crew that cut the roads into Linville Ridge, he also assisted in the construction work on the Linn Cove Viaduct along the Blue Ridge Parkway. During this time, at the age of 19, Doug built his first house. "I realized very quickly that residential construction was my 'calling." After 36 years in the construction industry, Doug has built over a 125 houses (1,000 sq.ft. to 10,000 sq.ft.), four commercial projects (Highland Woods apartment complex, Vilas medic base, Mt. Vernon Baptist Church sports pavilion, and Boone Fire Station #3) and numerous renovations in local medical offices. "When I'm not swinging a hammer on the job site (which I am very 'hands on'), I love to hunt and fish, refurbish antique firearms, watch Atlanta Braves baseball, and travel with my wife, Caroline. I have been married for 31 years, have two wonderful sons, and I just became a grandfather".
