Philip Howard isn't just the owner of Howard Construction — he is the contractor you hire when you want it done right. Born and raised in Sonoma County, Phil has deep roots in the communities he serves. His grandfather was a carpenter. His father was a carpenter. And from the time Phil was a teenager swinging a hammer on roofing crews, it was clear he was built for this work too.
What separates Phil from the competition isn't just skill — it's character. Over 25 years, he has built a reputation across Sonoma Valley, Napa Valley, Santa Rosa, San Francisco, and Calistoga as the contractor who always shows up, always communicates, and never cuts corners. Clients don't just hire him once — they call him back for the next project, and the one after that.
At 28, Phil joined one of the North Bay's premier high-end construction firms, where he sharpened his craft on complex custom homes and large commercial projects. When he founded Howard Construction in 2000, he brought that high standard to a business that treats every project — no matter the size — with the same level of care, precision, and professionalism.
