Neal Tong, President Home Builders Association of Kentucky
Welcome to the Home Builders Association (HBA) of Kentucky website.
The HBA of Kentucky was chartered in 1957 for the sole purpose of providing governmental representation for the housing industry in the Capital city of Frankfort. At the time of its formation the organization had four chapters and just over 300 members.
Today the Home Builders Association of Kentucky is made up of 22 local Associations from Pikeville to Paducah representing over 8,000 member firms.
Our main mission is still monitoring state legislation and regulations and we have a full time presence at the State Capitol.
We have also expanded our services for our members and consumers alike.
Membership in the Association allows a company to look at services from Health Insurance to Workers’ Compensation coverage through our group programs. We also provide educational opportunities for members through our local HBA’s. Our members are also kept informed of the latest in the industry through our “Kentucky Builders Journal” which comes out six times each year.
Our Registered Builder and Remodelor Program gives the consumer the confidence of working with a professional in our industry, whether it be building a new home or remodeling their existing structure.
Members join the Association at the local chapter level and are automatically enrolled in the State and National Association. This federation makes our organization a strong lobbying force at all levels of government.
