About Jerry DeHart
 
Jerry has deep roots in the area and the construction industry.  Born and raised in York County, his family originally settled in the area in the 1600s.  After a year at the University of Maine, Jerry attended the Construction Technology program at San Jose City College in California.  Upon completion of his apprenticeship, Jerry went on to become a project manager and in 1987, became a licensed General B Contractor in the states of California, Oregon, Washington, and Arizona.  Under his leadership, his company, DeHart Construction, grew to over 50 employees. 
 
In the mid-nineties, Jerry took a brief sabbatical from construction to travel the world, visiting over 40 countries.  When he returned, he continued his education at the University of Georgia, where he received several certificates of excellence.  Jerry returned to his home state after the tragedy of September 11th, settling in Ogunquit and continuing with DeHart Construction.  In 2006, he joined forces with Master Carpenter Norm Clough.
