Residential & Commercial

construction contractor

Rolling Hills Construction was founded in 2015 by Stephan Acevedo and Zach McDaniel. After working together in EOD – Explosive Ordnance Disposal – at Fort Riley, the pair began a side gig where they put in fences and took on other small jobs. Both had backgrounds as a construction contractor and found they had a knack for tackling problems together. The pair agreed – it was like the scene in Step Brothers where they instantly became best friends – they clicked, and for it, their productivity flourished.

After a few years of part-time work under their original name, 2 Guys Construction, the pair took their business full time in 2017 as Rolling Hills Construction.  Ever since, the company has been serving the area with high-quality construction services to the greater Junction City Kansas area.

I grew up in a small town in western Kansas. My love for construction blossomed from roofing houses for my high school basketball coach. I went to trade school for construction after high school and have been in the remodeling industry ever since. I strive to become a friend of every client I cross paths with and to provide them with a job well done.

Erin

I was around many tradesmen growing up. My late grandfather owned a plumbing business, so started helping at a young age. I first swung a hammer at the age of 3 and I was hooked from then on. In high school, I started my journey in the construction industry and went to college for construction. I spent 6 years in the United States Army as a construction equipment mechanic. I joined RHC in January of 2023 and have every intention of retiring from the company due to the professional and family oriented atmosphere.

Team Background

Transitioning to Construction

For former military professionals, it was a transition that just made sense. In EOD the pair were charged with being subject matter experts on numerous technical tasks, and being a construction contractor is no different. Stephan and Zach solve problems by gathering information and putting it into action with structurally sound, detailed projects. No room for errors, just solid results. 

The team says, “Our mindset is wanting to see something different and finding new challenges. If the last people said, ‘It can’t be done,’ we come in and find the solution. It’s never that it can’t be done, it’s a matter of time and money and what’s worth it for the desired outcome.”

With a team of college-educated, multi-faceted problem solvers, Rolling Hills Construction is here to kick things off for you. We’re trained to find a solution. With a military background, we find a way to make it work, even when others might’ve given up. We find creative, safe ways to make your vision a reality.

What Clients Say

About Us

Don’t just take our word for it! Our customer reviews speak for themselves — take a look at what past clients have to say about working with us.

Let me tell you...being a veteran, I was especially excited to have these two multi talented, extremely professional young men complete, and oversee multiple tasks on my property. I originally inquired about my roof. I received a response immediately. After rapid deployment of their highly skilled team, I would soon find out that theses two Army veterans were the leaders of a platoon capable of repairing residential and commercial buildings from top to bottom. It was wonderful to have my whole project completed by one company. If you want the job done right and in a timely manner, look no further than Rolling Hills Construction. Hooah!!!!

Rolling Hills did an excellent job building our new privacy fence! The builders were nice and friendly and they were quick to respond to our emails and questions.
Brent O'Connor
Rolling Hills Construction installed three doors (sliding glass door, entry door and garage rollup door). All installation was done with care and attention to detail. At completion the job site was cleaned up and all trash removed. Both crews were professional and wonderful to work with. I recommend Rolling Hills Construction for your next remodel. I could not have asked for a better experience.

We were immediately told when unexpected issues were discovered and they worked with our requests to make changes. They were always there when they said they would be! We will be calling them again for future projects. Thanks guys!!!!

I recently had rolling hills construction repair my roof that was damaged by storms and heavy winds. I reached out and got an immediate response. I received a quote and I was pleased with the price. I had them start immediately. I was very pleased with the results and I feel like I got more than I paid for. The level of professionalism is second to none, and the quality of work that they did on the repair puts them in a class above the rest. I am so glad I chose Rolling Hills Construction for my roof repair and I will definitely use them in the future. If you want the job done right the first time, on time, and without breaking the bank, Go with Rolling Hills Construction. You'll be glad you did.
