About Us

Windom Construction began in 1885 when Cicero Windom began a small business making home furniture and traveling chests. Simon his oldest, continued as a woodworker and a general contractor in North West Georgia. His oldest son, Neal began in the work, served in the Army Air Corps in WW II, and then became a prominent Methodist minister in North Georgia.

Robert Windom, the CEO, began construction work in 1964 and served his apprenticeships in the trades under the watchful guidance of Robert Story a prominent general contractor from Lilburn, Ga. After completing his formal education (Young Harris AA, Birmingham-Southern BA, and Emory University M Div), and serving for 5 years with the N GA Conference of the UMC as an Inner City Minister, Robert reestablished the family old business in 1976 and began work rebuilding the older homes and places of worship of the Old Town Atlanta. In the late ‘80’s he took time-out to supervise projects in Manhattan, remote NW Colorado, California and Hawaii.

He was in Hawaii for eight years, initially building a church sanctuary in Kailua, Oahu, and a home for Sylvester Stallone on Kauai. He assimilated into the island culture well and became a licensed Hawaii General Contractor and a member of: Construction Specifications Institute CSI of Hawaii, the Chamber of Commerce of Hawaii, Associated Builders and Contractors ABC of Hawaii, and the Building Industry Association BIA of Hawaii (The largest Trade Association in the state – with over 740 members. Robert was elected to serve on the Board of Directors of BIA for his last two years in Hawaii). Windom Construction Co. in Hawaii was active in the commercial, custom residential, and home renovations market.

Family health concerns in Atlanta brought Robert back to Atlanta from Hawaii in the mid nineties. Windom Construction Co. in Georgia is active inside I-285 working on renovation, restoration, preservation, and new additions for older residential structures.
