Modern Space Construction
Description
Modern Space Construction is an Atlanta-based residential construction and remodeling company founded in 2014 by John Herzig and Aaron Lopreste. Although the company officially launched in 2014, the partnership between its founders dates back to the 1990s, when they worked together on residential construction projects throughout Greater Atlanta.
Modern Space Construction was created to address what the founders saw as a major gap in the remodeling industry — homeowners needed a contractor capable of managing every phase of a project with accountability, communication, and hands-on oversight from start to finish.
Decades of Residential Construction Experience
Modern Space Construction is built on decades of practical field experience. John Herzig brings more than 37 years of construction expertise, while Aaron Lopreste contributes more than 30 years of hands-on residential building experience.
Together, their background includes:
- Whole-home renovations
- Historic home restorations
- Residential additions
- Kitchen remodels
- Structural reconstruction
- New residential construction
Their experience allows them to anticipate challenges before they become costly delays and to manage projects with realistic expectations, scheduling, and budgeting.
A Hands-On Construction Approach
One of the defining aspects of Modern Space Construction is their self-performing construction model. Rather than outsourcing core construction work, the company directly handles many critical phases of the project themselves.
Their in-house work includes:
- Structural construction
- Framing
- Carpentry
- Finish work
For specialized trades such as plumbing, electrical, and HVAC, they work with long-term licensed subcontractors who have partnered with the company for an average of 10 years.
This established network allows them to maintain consistency, reliability, and workmanship standards across every project.
Transparent Project Planning and Communication
Modern Space Construction places strong emphasis on clarity and communication before construction begins. Every project starts with a detailed written scope of work and a realistic project budget designed to minimize uncertainty and unexpected costs.
Their process includes:
- Detailed project scopes
- Transparent pricing
- Realistic scheduling
- Ongoing communication throughout construction
- Clear expectations before work begins
Their philosophy is centered on eliminating surprises and keeping homeowners informed at every phase of the project.
Core Values That Guide Every Project
Modern Space Construction operates around three primary principles:
Honesty
They provide upfront pricing and clearly define exactly what is included in the project scope before construction starts.
Quality
The company remains actively involved from the initial planning stages through final walkthroughs, working only with trusted trade partners who understand their standards.
Partnership
Their team approaches each project as though they were working on their own home, with a focus on long-term client relationships and repeat business.
