Custom-made homes are exclusively built to the owner’s plans and dreams. Custom home-builders take pride in creating what the individual client envisioned. The process of custom building a house starts with realizing and understanding what you desire in a home. It takes a lot of commitment and an equal share of responsibilities. The projected picture of the house needs to be realistic and attainable with the budget you have. Planning, reassessing, and building, all take time.

Once you have the resources and you decide to go for it, it’s time for action!

You take the plan to the custom home-builders; they give you feedback, discuss the budget and the expectations on the anticipated plan. Custom home builders also give you a design proposal with three-dimensional drawings and finishing details. If you are satisfied with the expected results, you move on to the next stage.

When the construction starts, the builders usually provide the homeowners with a step-by-step plan. The homeowners can also come and visit the construction whenever they want. You not only need to plan about major things ahead of time, like the landscaping, furnishing, and the appliances there are the minor things as well, like the tiles, the electricity sockets, water faucets, etc.

Upon completion of the construction, and possibly after every step of construction, there is extensive cleaning of the site. The final cleaning is followed by interior design and staging. Ideas from both the owners and the designers are brought together to make the house look beautiful, inside out. 

The last step is the inspection of the house, which points out if there are any concerns from the owners or the builders and any last-minute touch-ups before the house is finally handed over to the owners.
