J. BURNS CONSTRUCTION - Key Persons

After graduating from Valdosta High School, Jonathan attended Auburn University where he enrolled in the school of Architecture and Design. After deciding that he wanted to learn more about the structural side of construction, he changed majors and received a degree of Bachelor of Science in Building Construction. Following graduation from Auburn, Jonathan's interest in carpentry led him to begin his career in residential construction as he began working for a large remodeling firm in the Atlanta area. During this time in Atlanta, Jonathan gained valuable experience working with many architects and designers on a variety of projects that were featured in industry publications and received several trade awards. Jonathan moved back to Valdosta and founded J. Burns Construction, LLC in 2001. Formed on the principles of honesty, integrity and customer satisfaction, the firm has maintained this focus as it has grown. It is these qualities that have allowed it to survive the challenging times the industry has faced in the last several years. During his time off, Jonathan enjoys being outdoors and spending time with his wife and two children.

Burns Construction, LLC in May 2008 as our office manager when she and her husband, Ronnie, moved back to Lowndes County after being away from Valdosta for 30 years due to Ronnie's military career.

We are blessed to have her on our team as office manager as our business continues to expand.
