From a basement office in Potomac, Maryland in 1964, Bob Wormald started his home-building business with his wife Myra at his side. At first, the new company built one custom home at a time. Before long, the company grew from referrals and established a reputation for high quality construction and excellent service. Soon the company developed and built small subdivisions throughout Montgomery County, Maryland, including Highland Stone, Lake Normandy Estates, Willowbrook, Willerburn South, Wynloch, Loch Haven, Ellenwood, and Manor Village. Over time, with the expansion of the business, all three Wormald sons took on leadership positions within the organization, enabling the company to grow even larger.

Throughout the growth, the company has always focused on excellence in design. The Wormald Design Team has created over 125 new home designs ranging from Federal-style to Old World French and English Country, to more modern design concepts. Wormald's leadership in design has earned recognition from such prestigious organizations as the Urban Land Institute, the Chesapeake Bay Foundation, the Coalition for Smarter Growth, the Metropolitan Builders Council, the Greater Washington Board of Trade, the National Association of Home Builders, and the State of Maryland Economic Growth, Resource Protection, and Planning Commission.

Wormald has also taken the lead in regional planning efforts and building code reform for the State of Maryland, pushing for performance-based codes and flexible compliance matrices focused on desired results rather than a system of rigid but not necessarily smart rules.

At the core, Wormald is a group of craftsmen dedicated to excellence. We are committed to establishing long-term affiliations with subcontractors who are the best in their field. Carpenters, plumbers, electricians—every tradesman is a vital part of the Wormald Quality Program. We constantly seek the best practices in construction methods and use only the best materials.

When you choose Wormald, you choose a heritage of excellence, a proven reputation, and a history of success that you can rely upon.
