WHERE WE WORK
Wheatland Construction — Veterans Approved • Family-Owned Since 2018
(316) 322-7898Derby is one of the fastest-growing cities in Sedgwick County — a community of roughly 25,000 south of Wichita along US-15 and Patriot Avenue. The housing stock spans nearly five decades: older 1960s and 1970s ranches along the Rock Road and Buckner corridors in southeast Derby, 1980s and 1990s neighborhoods near the high school on the west side, and active new construction on the south and southwest edges of town.
That breadth of housing age means Derby has renovation work across every service Wheatland Construction provides. We're a Veterans Approved Builder (ID: 00899), Home Advisor Certified since 2019, family-owned since 2018. Derby is one of our most active service areas in Sedgwick County.
Active residential development continues on Derby's south edge and along the growing corridors toward Haysville. We build custom homes in Derby on available lots — from full design-build projects to constructing from client-supplied plans, permitting through the City of Derby.

Derby's 1980s and 1990s subdivisions were built at square footages that made sense in 1990 and have since been outgrown by families who've been in these homes for 20+ years. Master suite additions, room additions, and finished bonus spaces are among our most common Derby projects. See Home Additions in Derby →
Derby's older ranches along the southeast corridors have basements from the 1960s and 1970s — deeper than most people assume, and in generally good structural condition, but often with original block construction that needs moisture assessment. The newer subdivisions on the west side have poured-concrete basements that are ideal candidates for finishing. We assess moisture conditions first on every Derby basement.

Derby's wide housing age range means bathroom remodels come in every variety — original cast-iron plumbing in 1960s ranches, oak-cabinet 1980s bathrooms, and builder-grade fiberglass surrounds from 1990s construction. We remodel all of them: new tile, new vanity, new fixtures, updated plumbing where the original systems need it. See Bathroom Remodeling in Derby →
Derby has some of the most active kitchen remodel demand in our service area — homeowners in the established neighborhoods are investing in kitchens that work for how they actually cook and live. We remodel Derby kitchens for layout, storage, lighting, and finish — from targeted refreshes to full gut-and-replace. See Kitchen Remodeling in Derby →
Derby's older stock — the 1960s and 1970s ranches near the southeast quadrant — often needs comprehensive renovation. Original insulation, original electrical, original plumbing, and interior finishes from 50 years ago that have been painted over and patched but never replaced. We handle major remodel scopes with coordinated trades and full permit coverage through the City of Derby. See Major Remodels in Derby →
South Sedgwick County and Derby specifically see significant hail activity each spring. We install roofing systems appropriate for Kansas storm exposure, handle insurance claim documentation when applicable, and pull all City of Derby permits. See Roofing in Derby →
Residential construction in Derby permits through the City of Derby Building Inspection. We handle all permit applications, inspection scheduling, and final approvals.
