about

For four generations, the Derocher name has stood for thoughtful craftsmanship, disciplined execution, and enduring quality. Based in Bloomfield Hills, Derocher, Inc. builds fully custom residences defined by structural integrity, refined detail, and timeless design.

Founded on personal stewardship and exacting standards, the firm has remained family-led since its inception. Bill Derocher, a third-generation builder, established the company’s reputation through meticulous oversight and an uncompromising approach to quality. Today, his son and partner, James Derocher, carries that legacy forward—bringing a modern perspective, strategic foresight, and hands-on leadership to every project.

Derocher’s philosophy is simple: true luxury is the result of care, experience, and intention. Every home is approached as a singular endeavor, guided by generations of knowledge and executed by a tightly aligned team of professionals and craftspeople. The result is not just a residence, but a home built to endure—both in construction and character.
