Design Choices

These carpenters have worked with us for over 25 years, and their excellent work is showcased in our portfolio of past work.

Architectural Style

Whether you’re drawn to the clean lines of modern architecture or the timeless charm of a craftsman style home, custom home construction allows you to choose an architectural style that resonates with your vision. Choosing the correct designer or architect is an incredibly important initial step on the journey of building your custom home. We are proud to work with top local architects and designers to ensure that you are designing the home that you dream of. These professionals will be chosen based on the style of home you desire. From modern to rustic, we have you covered.

Energy Efficiency and Sustainable Living

In the realm of custom home construction, prioritizing energy efficiency and sustainable living is more than a choice; it's a commitment to a greener, more conscientious way of living. By integrating advanced insulation, high-performance windows, and energy-efficient HVAC systems, custom homes can significantly reduce their environmental footprint while lowering long-term energy costs. Additionally, the incorporation of renewable energy sources like solar panels or geothermal systems can further enhance sustainability. Utilizing eco-conscious building materials and practices not only minimizes waste but also contributes to a healthier indoor environment. From low VOC paints to sustainable flooring options, every choice reflects a dedication to both the environment and the well-being of those who call the custom home their own.

Budgeting

Budgeting for your home may seem like a daunting task, but we are here to make it easy. A common first step is consulting with your financial institution of choice about a realistic budget for you. Utilizing our construction management software, maximizing your budget’s potential has never been easier. In our software you can make your selections and see how it will affect your budget. From trim options, to flooring and countertops, there are a multitude of options available all with different price tags, that’s why we made it easy by uploading selections from our vendors. We also meet on a monthly basis to review the budget, whether the project is currently under or over budget, and to address any concerns you may have during the construction process.

 

Future Proofing Your Investment

When constructing a custom home, future-proofing your investment is another important consideration. It involves making informed decisions today that not only meet your immediate needs but also anticipate the demands of tomorrow. This means considering factors such as emerging architectural trends, sustainable construction techniques, and innovative technologies. By integrating features like energy-efficient systems, flexible floor plans, and durable materials, we’re not only enhancing the current value of your property but also ensuring its long-term relevance and appeal. Future-proofing your custom home is a strategic investment in its enduring value and adaptability. It's a commitment to building a residence that stands the test of time, even amidst the ever-evolving landscape of home design and construction.
