Membership Benefits

Membership in your local builders association is a sound business investment. Annual dues can be considered a business and marketing expense at only $28.75 a month. Here are some of the ways members benefit from HCBA membership:

Build Credibility with Prospective Customers: Businesses accepted into the Huntingdon County Builders Association have been evaluated to make sure they are fiscally responsible and have established a good reputation. We check bank, business and customer references to verify that the members we accept are reputable. Members can use their status as a "Member in Good Standing" with the Huntingdon County Builders Association in their marketing to build credibility for thier company. In addition, HCBA membership also includes membership in the Pennsylvania Builders Association and the National Association of Home Builders.

Networking: Members like doing business with other members. By networking with vendors and other members, you have access to influential decision makers in your industry and community. You will be able to broaden your contact base through networking with members of the association during general membership meetings and other social events throughout the year.

Educational Opportunities: Valuable educational programs are available through the local, state and national associations, as well as access to their extensive libraries. HCBA will help keep you up to date with building codes, changes in laws affecting the building industry and will give you access to courses on how to run your business better.

Group Benefit Programs: HCBA gives you access to Health Insurance, Workers’ Compensation, Life Insurance, Disability Coverage, Dental and Vision Coverage, Payroll Services and much, much more.

Marketing: There are opportunities throughout the year for members to market their business to other members and to consumers: Programs include our general membership meetings the first Thursday of each month, sponsorship of meetings (with an opportunity to talk about your business), advertising opportunities on placemats and our website, the Raystown Lake Region Home and Garden Show and a free listing on the HCBA website at www.huntingdoncountybuilders.com.
