Mike Hughes

Mike Hughes joined Kara Bolton Homes, Inc. as Superintendent in the spring of 2020, right at the onset of the pandemic. While many faced uncertainty, Mike saw it as a chance to pivot professionally and pursue his long-held passion for construction—a field where both his hands-on skills and people-first approach shine.

Mike’s journey in construction began with an Associate of Arts in Construction Management from Santa Fe College in 2006, followed by a Bachelor of Science in Construction Management from the University of North Florida in 2008. Mike married his wife, Annie, in 2011 and by 2014 they welcomed their son, Henry. That same year, they moved into their first home—built by Kara Bolton Homes. A few years later, their daughter, Hayden, completed their family.

Mike brings not only technical know-how but a natural warmth and ease in working with people, from clients to crews. Outside of work, he’s an avid biker, surfer, golfer, and an all-around builder-at-heart. Every Halloween, he transforms his driveway into an epic haunted house that’s become a neighborhood tradition, thrilling trick-or-treaters year after year.

In January 2022, Mike launched his own venture—Hughes Building Construction—turning his years of industry experience into a business built on quality, integrity, and a deep love for the craft. His company specializes in new construction, bringing fresh energy and attention to detail to every project. If you’re interested in reaching out to Mike, his email is mike.hughes02@gmail.com.

Though now at the helm of his own operation, Mike remains a valued part of the Kara Bolton Homes family, always ready to lend a hand and offer support whenever it’s needed.
