417 Forged was built on experience, craftsmanship, and the drive to do things better.

After nearly a decade in real estate, I kept seeing the same thing—custom homes that felt cheaply built, and remodels that looked like a rushed DIY job. Homeowners were spending good money and still ending up disappointed. My father-in-law, Mike (his real name’s Valeriy, but “Mike” is easier), has been in construction most of his life. He knows what real quality looks like, and he’s not afraid to demand it.

We teamed up to offer something different. The “417” represents where we’re rooted—Springfield and the surrounding area. And “Forged” reflects how we build: strong, reliable, and made to last.

We handle full custom home builds and all types of remodels—kitchens, bathrooms, tile, flooring, siding, roofing—you name it. Our contractors are people we trust, and we only take on work we can stand behind. No shortcuts, no disappearing halfway through the job, and no surprises when it comes to communication.

417 Forged is a family-run company. We’re hands-on, local, and proud to build and remodel homes that look good, feel solid, and actually reflect what our clients wanted from the start.
