Custom homes and estate builds across the valley. Fixed price after design, with every allowance named and priced, because the gap between quoted and final is where custom building earns its reputation.
Services
Design-build if you want one contract, or as builder alongside your own architect. Both work; they run differently.
Architecture, interiors and construction under one roof and one contract. Fewer gaps to fall through, one person accountable.
You have an architect you love. We build it, hold the schedule and the budget, and stay out of the design conversation.
Site work, wells, septic and long driveways. The invisible half of a rural build, and the half that surprises people.
Older or architecturally notable properties, where the constraint is respecting what's there.
Homeowners & architects
"They protected the design when the budget got tight. That's rare."
M. Delacroix · Architect, valley"Weekly walkthrough, weekly numbers. No surprises at the end."
Jen & Ro P. · New build"The site work on acreage was handled better than we'd been warned to expect."
Alan S. · Estate build"Second home we've built with them. That should say it."

For architects and homeowners both. Nobody should sign for a house without knowing this.
18moAverage timeline
Before design, we look at the land. Access, soils, utilities and setbacks decide more about cost than the floor plan does.
Costing runs alongside design rather than after it, so you never fall in love with something unaffordable.
A fixed schedule with named milestones, and an allowance schedule that says plainly what is and isn't decided.
Site meeting every week, updated numbers every month, and a one-year warranty walkthrough after you've lived in it.
Priced, then built
Foundation, framing, finish. The quote was fixed before the first of them and was the invoice after the last.
Best had before you buy the land. We will walk a parcel and tell you what building on it really costs, which is often not what the listing implies.
