Experience You Can Trust. Results You Can See
RA Hyman was founded in 2007, built on more than two decades of hands-on construction and restoration experience. After leading projects ranging from multi-family developments to major insurance loss rebuilds, our founder, Bob Hyman, saw a gap in the industry. Too often, property owners were met with contractors who could patch things up, but not truly rebuild. What they needed was a partner who could take on the tough work of reconstruction and remodeling, while guiding them through the process with clarity and care.
From day one, that’s been our focus. We step into projects others avoid, bringing the experience to solve problems and the patience to walk clients through every step. Our goal is to rebuild with honesty, adapt with flexibility, and deliver results you can count on.

THE RA HYMAN DIFFERENCE
Insurance & Mortgage Advocacy
Dealing with insurance and mortgage companies can be overwhelming. We don't hand that burden back to clients; we deal with the paperwork, calls, and inspections ourselves so the project can keep moving.
Focused Expertise
We're not a remediation company. No water extractions, no mold cleanup, no pack-outs. Our role begins after the cleanup, handling the reconstruction and remodeling.
Full-Service Project Management
Once we're on a job, we handle it from start to finish. Estimates, permits, scheduling, inspections: all of it runs through us. Clients know they can count on us, and they don't have to chase down loose ends.
Complex Projects Welcome
Many contractors avoid large or complicated jobs. We've build out reputation on taking them on and finishing them with integrity and care.
Our Mission
Our work has always been about more than building walls and roofs. At RA Hyman, the mission is simple: rebuild properties with honesty and care, and make the process as clear as possible for the people living through it.
Whether we’re remodeling a kitchen or reconstructing a home after a fire, the goal is the same — leave the space stronger, and leave the client feeling supported from start to finish.
Our values
What guides us isn't complicated, but we take it seriously:
Integrity
If we commit to something, we follow through.
Communication
Clients don’t like surprises — we keep them in the loop from start to finish.
Patience & Adaptability
Craftsmanship
Details matter. A clean finish and solid build are what make the difference.
Looking Ahead
RA Hyman has earned its reputation in Washington DC, Maryland, and Virginia, by tackling rebuilds that test both skill and patience.
Looking forward, our focus and commitment isn’t changing. We’ll keep showing up for the most complicated jobs and guiding clients through them with the same honesty and care that built our name.
