Robert S. Ransom III – Founder & Principal Owner

Originally from Atlanta, GA, Robert is a former student athlete and graduate of Vanderbilt University and most recently from Georgetown University with an Executive MBA. He spent his first five years post college playing professional baseball for the Chicago Cubs and St. Louis Cardinals while performing home remodels in the off-seasons. After a career-ending injury in 2008, Robert moved to the Washington, DC area to peruse his second dream of entrepreneurship.

In 2010 he restarted a long held family company name founded by his grandfather in 1950's that once sold coal and insurance in Rome, GA. Since 2010, The Ransom Company has performed over $14 million worth of residential and commercial construction in the DC metro area while continuing a family tradition of exceptional customer service that Robert's grandfather Pop once delivered to his clients.

Robert is also a founding partner of HelpingHammers.org, a pending not-for-profit organization aimed at supporting our country’s deployed service members, veterans, their families and local low income communities by providing home contracting, maintenance and repair services free of charge.
