Nearly 50 Years of Building It Right

Family owned, crew driven, and committed to the same standard since 1976.

Our Story

Carlton B. Geesaman, Sr. founded this company in 1976 with a straightforward idea. Do the job right, treat the customer right, and put your name on work you’re proud of. Starting in Central Pennsylvania with a focus on custom home building, he grew CBG into one of the most trusted names in the region over the following decades.

In 2013, he passed ownership to his son Carlton “Cobbie” Geesaman Jr., who has carried that standard forward while expanding the company’s capabilities to include excavation, concrete, and a broader range of commercial work. Carlton Sr. passed away in 2015, but the company he built and the name on every project remains his legacy.

Nearly 50 years in, CBG is still family owned, still self-performing most of its work with its own crews, and still approaching every job the same way. No shortcuts. No finger pointing. Just a builder that takes pride in the result.

What Sets Us Apart

A lot of contractors will tell you they do quality work. Here is what actually makes CBG different.

Own Crews on Every Job

We don't hand your project off and hope for the best. Our crews are on site, accountable, and held to the Geesaman standard from day one to final walkthrough.

Design/Build Capability

Come to us with just an idea. We have helped clients go from a concept and a rough budget to a finished set of plans and a build that exceeded what they imagined.

We Figure It Out

Two words that come up constantly from our commercial clients. Hard sites, complex scopes, tight timelines. We don't look for reasons a job can't be done.

Nearly 50 Years in Central PA

Founded in 1976, we have built relationships in this region that span generations. Many of our clients have come back to us two, three, and four times over the years.

Residential & Commercial

Founder

In Memory of Carlton B. Geesaman, Sr. (1953 - 2015)

The company carries his name because everything it does reflects what he built. Carlton Sr. founded CBG in 1976 and spent nearly four decades growing it into one of Central Pennsylvania’s most respected construction firms. He passed ownership to Cobbie in 2013 and passed away in 2015. His standard lives in every project we take on.
