Excavators on Construction Site

Leadership Team

Carter has been an entrepreneur his entire life. He began selling Christmas trees at age 8. He held his first business license at age 15 boasting a small landscaping company, which prospered so much that he sold it at age 21. He purchased a Bobcat and began clearing and grading for homeowners, and his reputation for service and quality began to grow as quickly as his vision for the future. A mini-excavator was added to the Bobcat. Then a loader. Then an excavator. And on and on. The entrepreneur was soon surrounded by a team and a fleet.

Today, Carter enjoys being as hands-on as he was selling Christmas trees. He is often personally interacting with customers, team members, or field personnel onsite, driving the safety and production of crews and overseeing the quality craftsmanship that has carried C.D. Hall Construction to where it is today. Having done it all, Carter is dynamically involved in every aspect of the business as he was once himself the Estimator/Superintendent/Project Manager/Accountant during the company’s formative years. And while his knowledge and experience are vast, Carter is always reading, asking questions, listening, and watching all around him out of his desire to continually learn, grow, and be the best. His relentless pursuit of excellence in everything he does for the benefit of others shapes the culture of the C.D. Hall Construction team.

Ryan has recently joined the CD Hall family with over 15 years of experience in the construction industry. Early in his career, he experienced working for both a General Contractor and a Land Developer. Through those experiences, he found he most enjoys the sitework aspect of construction. In his role as Senior Project Manager, he is responsible for overseeing and managing financial budgets through detailed project cost tracking, organized scheduling, strategic purchasing, planning, and forecasting.

The name Gary List has become synonymous with General Superintendent in central Virginia. Gary is widely known and highly respected across the industry by owners, developers, contractors, engineers, and inspectors. Becoming a rock star General Superintendent doesn’t happen overnight though. Gary began operating heavy equipment in 1986 before he was promoted to a foreman position within a couple of years. A few years after that Gary was functioning as General Superintendent/Project Manager and has been utilizing his vast knowledge of the field ever since.

Gary manages the day-to-day sitework operations for all of our commercial crews. He utilizes his 30+ years of experience to ensure that we are operating with safety as our first priority and at 100% max efficiency to drive job production and to make certain that our customers’ expectations of safety, speed, and quality are always met or exceeded. Whether large or small, Gary is intimately involved in every job we do. But despite all of his experience and know-how, Gary is humble and approachable, which is perhaps the greatest value to our customers.

When you’re the type of guy that can do it all, it is difficult to capture an appropriate job title to suit that person. Formerly our Concrete Superintendent, Steve’s gifting and intellect go beyond any single specialty. What truly sets this Eagle Scout apart is his ability to take any task given, embrace it, own it, and make it happen. Steve is remarkably technical which is in part owing to his meticulous personality but also a product of his education, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Building Construction from Virginia Tech.
