A long History of quality
The Borisenok family tradition of building homes dates back over a century; a passion that has been passed along to each generation since.
As a third generation homebuilder, Dave Borisenok followed in the footsteps of his father and grandfather before him, each who had stick-built their own homes. They prided themselves on quality craftsmanship; a value engrained in Dave since the time he was born.
As a child, his daughter Ashley watched as her father tirelessly built his dream home. It was the home she would grow up in and, eventually, went on to start her own family in. While building this home, Dave recognized that he wanted to help other people do the same. He saw how little one-on-one attention big developers were giving the people investing their life savings into building. He knew he could do better. So, in 2014, Dave founded Dry Creek Building and Development with his daughter by his side.
A few short years later, Ashley decided it was time to continue the family tradition. Together, she and Dave began to build the home of her dreams. Dave watched as Ashley took this project head on, and it became even more clear that the passion had been sparked in yet another generation. While Dave is still an active participant in the company today, Ashley has become the face of Dry Creek and its daily affairs.

Dave Borisenok
Owner and CEO
Dave leveraged 35 years of a successful business career into an early retirement so he could pursue a second career—building quality homes in the Capital Region. As a third generation home builder, Dave’s family history in construction dates back to the 1920s when his grandparents hand-built their first home. At the age of 22 and armed with the knowledge passed on from previous generations, Dave completed his first home construction project: a back deck. He spent the next decade investing all of his spare time into learning everything he could about construction and development, taking on projects ranging from minor finishing work to major home remodels. When he was finally ready for his own custom home, he literally took matters into his own hands. He created his dream home using the principles of traditional craftsmanship, quality construction and luxury design.
These are the same principles that guided him decades later when he was ready to found his own building and development company. In 2014, Dry Creek Building and Development was born. Since then, Dry Creek has completed many beautiful homes, making a name for themselves as one of the premier custom home builders in the Capital Region.
When he’s not prospecting local land or dreaming up blueprints, Dave is enjoying Saratoga’s live music scene with his wife of 37 years or relaxing on the lake with his children and grandchildren.
