Meet the Team
Mark Buchs, Owner/President
Mark began his construction career at a very young age, working alongside his father, a master carpenter, woodworker, mason, and owner of Buchs Bros Construction. Mark has been collecting the tools for entrepreneurship ever since. From building houses in his high school trades program to working as a project manager and real estate flipper, he is recognized for his exceptional craftsmanship.
Mark cultivated his expertise across the industry, adding experience in manufacturing, steel, and welding, as a supervisor for Fleetwood Homes. Along with his construction skills, he also assembled his aptitude for leadership, management, and business. His passion for building houses brought him back to construction and moved his family to Georgia, where he built several new houses, remodeled, bought and sold real estate.
Mark’s greatest build has been his family business, MDH Design & Build. He loves seeing each family member’s skills and capabilities come together to create something marvelous out of nothing, just like building a house from the empty lot to the final coat of paint. He takes great satisfaction in starting from scratch – planning, building, and designing – to create a dream home for families like his.

Dalton Buchs
Dalton started working alongside his dad, Mark, at the age of 10. He started helping his family in smaller projects, which slowly ignited his passion for construction. He inherited the entrepreneur gene and began exploring the industry by working for an event planning company and basement remodeling.
When Dalton graduated early, he got the opportunity to learn more about construction by joining Mark on several projects. Later on, he was recruited to play football for Birmingham Southern in Alabama, where he studied business management. This allowed him to hone his leadership and management competencies while playing as a receiver on the football team.
When Covid-19 hit, he returned home from college and finished his online classes with a broad knowledge of business operations. The family came up with a new business model and he went back to work full time, contributing at various levels to the company. Dalton was born with a unique blend of skills and talents, and a keen eye for design. His strong technical skills help him to facilitate the design process. He aims to follow this career path to eventually run MDH Design & Build in the future.
Dylan Buchs

After he graduated from Forsyth Central High school as a 3-sport athlete, he was recruited to play college football while pursuing a degree in business management. He played running back for Birmingham Southern Alabama’s football team.
Dylan’s construction experience started young when he began accompanying his father on jobs at the age of 7. He currently contributes to MDH Design & Build by handling physically demanding tasks on construction sites. From site prep, equipment operator, carpentry, to finalizing the finishing touches, his analytical abilities make him the perfect man for the job.
On-site, Dylan is tasked with ensuring operations run safely and efficiently. He hopes that his family business will thrive for years to come so that he can continue working with his siblings and parents.
