Drake Ambrosino
Owner/Founder

I started my building business in 1997 and set out on a journey to build great houses and have fun doing so. I pledged to share that experience with my clients, offering great craftsmanship and quality products along with a high degree of personal ethics and communication. I believe I have fulfilled that pledge throughout the years.

Arbor Building Company constructs quality family homes and custom building projects for southeastern Michigan families. I’m proud of the homes we’ve built, the relationships we’ve fostered, and the positive experiences we’ve provided for our clients.

Arbor Design Build is instrumental in the design and raising of many beautiful timberframe homes around the country. Our craft has taken us from as far west as the Rockies and plains of the Dakotas, north to the waters of the Georgian Bay, east to the Adirondacks and to the historic areas of Virginia and Maryland, and south to the hills of Tennessee. We partner with homeowners, builders and architects to deliver outstanding timberframes, finely crafted by New Energy Works. 

I have made my home in Michigan since ’72 and my wife and I have called Ann Arbor our home since ’87. We've raised our five children here, now all grown and bringing us the pleasures of grandkids. We look forward to many more years enjoying our work, our home and our families. We hope we can offer you the same joys we encounter each day.
