North Florida’s Local Builder

When it comes to being a visionary in the home-building industry, Bill Cellar is regarded as extraordinary – second to none really. The same can be said of one of the most respected builders in Northeast Florida when it comes to his caring for customers and for the community. Cellar, a transplanted Californian – with a penchant for numbers, a keen business acumen, and a passion for new challenges – continues to position his successful home-building enterprise – Providence Homes by Bill Cellar – among the leading residential home builders in the Jacksonville area.

While many successful builders are content to stay the course with what has made them successful, Cellar continues to exhibit a rare entrepreneurial sense that finds his company readily probing for new opportunities. When Cellar started out as a builder just over 17 years ago, the former strategic planner for Barnett Bank took a somewhat calculated risk, beginning his venture with very limited capital but with a substantial pledge – to make a difference in the building industry. “From the very outset, my intent was simplistic; I wanted Providence Homes to build beautifully designed homes at affordable prices,” says Cellar, the company’s chief executive officer. “It has always been my mission to deliver the best home-buying experience within our market and to treat our customers, employees, suppliers, and subcontractors with honesty, respect, and fairness.”

The company has catapulted from a one-man, home-based operation building its first home in 1993 to becoming a major player in the North Florida residential construction industry. With Cellar and his team of 25 professionals, he has successfully put together the very best talent dedicated to creating the finest homes at an exceptional value. Providence Homes has grown to rank among the top 10 builders in the Jacksonville area, and is the second largest, locally owned residential builder. At Providence Homes, we believe that the most important element of your home is you. Our goal is to build every home with the same attention to detail and commitment to excellence as we would with our own family’s home. That is why we have spent the last 17 years building award-wining homes – one home at time.
