Corbett Design Build

In 1980, after working for a builder together for three years, Barry Corbett and Dave Foster began a business together—Foster Corbett, where their emphasis was on remodeling projects.  In 1983, Dave left to pursue other interests while Barry continued on with the business, renaming it Corbett Construction Company.  Over the years, Barry has worked to build his business and to stay on the forefront of the industry through educational opportunities and the utilization of the latest technology.  After having drawn projects by hand for several years, in 1995, he began using state-of-the-art CAD software to design his projects. This service and expertise has set Barry apart from his competitors and gives him an outlet for his creativity and his desire to help people.

In 1990, Barry became one of the first 100 in the nation to earn the Certified Graduate Remodeler designation.  He also earned his Certified Aging-in-Place Specialist designation in 2004.  Through the years, Barry has helped to organize and support the Raleigh-Wake County Remodelers Council of the Home Builder's Association and served as 2007 Chairman where he worked to promote professionalism in the industry and to provide consumer education.
