From 2004-2006, an economic boom time, many areas in the United States experienced a sharp increase in number of new home construction.  Southwest Florida was one of these areas.  Alongside the increase in new home construction, hurricanes Ivan, Katrina, and Wilma created a shortage and inevitably a strong demand of building materials most prominently in the Southeast area of the U.S.  One of the products in short supply at this time was drywall.  The quick and easy solution to many builders and construction companies was to import the materials from other countries, mainly China. 

Marvin Development Corporation always has and always will purchase construction materials that are manufactured in the United States.  We purchase material from reputable suppliers and refuse to find cheaper substitutes when the demand for a product is high.  As a builder, we look out for the best interest of our customers and through our knowledge and experience provide you with a safe, quality product.  You can rest assured that any home built by Marvin Development Corporation contains domestic drywall.
