MO‘OLELO — THE STORY

Merk Hawaii & All Stars LLC is a custom residential construction outfit based in Kāne‘ohe, O‘ahu. We do the work most builders pass on — the non-standard ones, the renovations with surprises behind the drywall, the specialty builds that need someone willing to fabricate the answer instead of order it.

Founder Igor Merk grew up in Estonia, spent years in Tahoe, and moved to Hawai‘i in 2005. After more than a decade on Maui, he relocated to O‘ahu to take on bigger, weirder, more interesting work.

The result is a small shop with a large bag of tricks: trusted by homeowners who want their build to feel like it belongs on the island, not lifted from a catalog.

“E HO‘OHANOHANO I KA HANA — HONOR THE WORK.”

NĀ HANA - THE WORK

Three lanes, one standard.

01 / CUSTOM RESIDENTIAL

Ground-up homes built for the climate. Single-family custom builds designed around how you actually use the lanai, the trades, the trade winds. We work alongside your architect - or bring one in.

NEW CONSTRUCTION

SITE PLANNING

PERMITTING SUPPORT

OWNER-BUILDER PARTNERSHIPS

02 / RENOVATIONS

Renovations that respect the original bones. Kitchens, baths, full gut remodels, additions. Older Hawai‘i homes hide a lot - termites, settled posts, undersized service. We find it, fix it, and finish it cleanly.

WHOLE-HOME REMODELS

KITCHENS & BATHS

ADDITIONS & ‘OHANA UNITS

STRUCTURAL REPAIR

03 / SPECIALTY & NONSTANDARD

The build nobody else will quote. Custom brick, bamboo, salvaged timber, off-grid systems, weird geometry. If it needs to be figured out and fabricated, this is the lane.

CUSTOM MATERIAL FABRICATION

MUD BRICK & ALT. MASONRY

CUSTOM DOORS & MILLWORK

STRUCTURAL PROBLEM-SOLVING

§ 04 PONO - OUR STANDARDS

FOUR THINGS WE DON'T
COMPROMISE ON.

01

SHOW UP.

Owner on-site. Calls returned the same day. The person who quoted the job is the person running it.

02

BUILD IT ONCE.

We'd rather do it slow and right than fast and again. Materials chosen for the next twenty years, not the next inspection.

03

SOLVE, DON'T SUBSTITUTE.

If the spec calls for something we can't source, we figure out how to make it - not how to swap it for something easier.

04

LEAVE IT CLEANER.

Site, neighbors, your house at end of day. Construction is loud - it doesn't have to be rude.

§ 05 / INQUIRY

E HELE MAI -
COME WALK THE LOT.

Tell us about the project - site, scope, timeline. We'll come out, take a look, and give you a straight answer about whether we're the right fit.
