Timber frame covered porch under construction on a Hill Country home

Home/Services/Custom home building

Custom home builder in San Antonio and the Hill Country

Ground up custom homes across San Antonio, Boerne and the surrounding Hill Country, from the foundation to the last fixture.

The work

A custom home is the one job where every decision is yours, which is the appeal and also the risk. The difference between a build that stays on budget and one that does not is usually how many of those decisions get made before the slab is poured.

We build from your plans, walk you through the choices in the order they actually have to be made, and run every trade ourselves from the frame through to the finish carpentry. One builder, one contract, one person answering the phone.

How it runs

From first call to final walk-through

01

Site walk

We come out, look at the space and talk through what you want. Free, and there is no obligation at the end of it.

02

Written estimate

You get the scope and the price in writing, including the parts people usually forget to budget for, so you can compare us like for like.

03

Build

One crew and one point of contact. We protect the areas we are not working in and clean the site at the end of every day.

04

Final walk-through

We walk the finished work with you, write down anything you are not happy with and fix it before we call the job done.

Questions

Straight answers on custom home building

Do I need plans before I call you?

No. Plenty of people call us with a lot and an idea. We can look at the site with you and point you to people who draw plans, then review the set before you commit and flag anything that will be expensive to build as drawn.

Do you build outside San Antonio?

Yes. We work across Boerne, Bulverde and the surrounding Hill Country, which is where a lot of the custom work is.
