Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the typical timeline for building a custom home?

On average, building a custom home takes 9–14 months from design through final construction. Factors like home size, complexity, permitting, and even seasonal weather can affect the schedule. We provide a detailed project roadmap, so you always know the next step.

How much control will I have over the design?

Total control. From the floor plan to the finishes, everything is designed around your lifestyle. Customers can use our local design center showroom using our in-house designers for consultations, and planning meetings to make sure your home is exactly what you envisioned. You are also welcome to bring your own designers and can make selections at any supplier that fits your needs.

Do you build energy-efficient and smart homes?

Yes. Energy efficiency is one of the best investments in a custom build. We use high-performance insulation, efficient HVAC systems, thermally insulated windows and can integrate smart home technology like thermostats, lighting, and security for long-term savings and convenience.

Can we provide our own lot and hire you to build on that lot?

Absolutely. Most of our customers already own their lot when they hire us to build. We’ll evaluate the land for grading, utilities, and design compatibility before you commit, making sure the lot supports your vision and avoids costly issues later.

How is a custom home different from buying a pre-built home?

With a custom home, you choose the plan and layout, how it sits on the lot, all the finishes and features that matter to you. Instead of adapting to someone else’s design, you get a home tailored to your family’s needs.
