The Heritage Family

What our clients have to say about us.

In 2008 our home was destroyed by the Manhattan tornado. In 2009 Heritage Builders completely remodeled another home for us to live in. The entire process of working with Ron to design our new home was seamless, and we now have the home that we have always wanted. In the past 8 years, Heritage has always stood behind it’s workmanship and it’s products. I can truly say that the customer comes first with Heritage Builders.

As you know, our standards are pretty high. The nature of our work demands it, so we expect the same from others. The remodel went well and gave us great results so we had no hesitation in calling Heritage for the basement issue. Again, we got excellent customer service and results. Like Mark did with the remodel, we know Josh went above and beyond the letter of the contract and that doesn’t happen without Ron’s approval. Thank you for another great job!

Office Manager​

Kat Peelen

From a young age accuracy, integrity, and striving for excellence have been core values for Kat.  She graduated as valedictorian from her high school class and in her early 20s went on to co-found a successful business in the small Kansas town where she grew up. During this time she was also busy earning a Certificate in Entrepreneurship from Washburn University Small Business Development Center, studying Accounting and Business Management at Kansas State University, and raising a family.

In 2016 bigger dreams brought Kat to the city of Manhattan and ultimately Heritage Builders. Through her leadership on the Heritage team, she hopes to cultivate a company culture than is about so much more than just work. It is her goal to help people find their places in meaningful roles where they can better themselves and their community, all while creating an outstanding experience for their customers.

Outside of work, Kat most enjoys spending time with her best friend and husband, Logan, and their four children. They can often be found enjoying the great outdoors, traveling, cooking, playing sports and games, reading, gardening, crafting, and exploring life together.

Owner & General Contractor

Ron dechant

Ron DeChant is an Owner and General Contractor of Heritage Builders. Ron grew up as a middle child in a family of four children. His parents moved his family to the small Kansas town of Onaga at a young age to pursue the family’s desire to raise their children away from the hustle and bustle of big city life in Denver, Colorado. Whether it was working in the yard or the garage with his father as a young kid, or working in the school wood shop for hours on end, Ron has always loved working with his hands and knew he wanted to use his skills to build dreams for others.

Ron graduated from Onaga High School in 1998, and after long and hard consideration, he decided not to attend Pitt State University. Instead, he chose to stay closer to home and his mother, and started working for himself doing small remodeling and framing jobs. In 2003 Ron teamed up with Heritage Builders and became a partner in the business. After years of building custom homes, spec homes, and doing contract framing and trimming, Ron saw the need for a reliable and trustworthy remodeling contractor in the Manhattan community and set out to become the very best in the area.

Family is the most import thing in Ron’s life and he has been blessed with a very supportive wife, Samantha, and their beautiful children, Penny and Everett. Ron and his family love being outdoors, camping, fishing, and cheering on the Wildcats! For Ron, Heritage is more than just a construction company. It is a family, a team, and a lifestyle. Heritage Builders is a company that is built on trust, reliability, hard work, and commitment to giving every customer their very best.
