Design/build contractors build and remodel a wide variety of home styles, including:

Luxury homes
Luxury homes are high-end homes in affluent communities. The high-end status is determined by location, property entry, architecture, decor, decadent amenities, entertainment capability, grounds, etc.

Beach homes
A beach home is a home designed for the beach. Typically, beach homes are vacation homes rather than permanent residences.

A-frame homes
A-frame houses feature steeply angled sides that usually begin at or near the foundation line and meet at the top, creating a home that looks like the letter A.

Green homes
Green homes are built using a process that is environmentally responsible and resource-efficient throughout the building’s life cycle. This Green process includes design, construction, operation, maintenance, renovation and demolition. The purpose of a Green home is to reduce the overall impact of the home on human health and the natural environment.

Split-level homes
A split-level home is similar to a ranch home. It features three levels of living space on a floor plan that makes economical use of the building lot.

Victorian homes
Victorian homes are usually two-story homes with steep roof pitches, turrets and dormers. Typically, a Victorian home has a large porch as well.

Craftsman homes
“Craftsman” is an American architectural design that began in the last years of the 19th century. It originates from the British arts and crafts movement, emphasizing the handmade over the mass-produced. Craftsman homes feature simplicity of form, local natural materials and visibility of handicraft.

Chalet-style homes
Reminiscent of homes on alpine ski slopes, chalet style homes are rustic homes based on Swiss alpine cottages. They have a rectangular shape, big lofts, large windows and steep gabled roofs.

Home additions
Home additions can be added to your home to increase its value and comfort. These additions include sunrooms, pop-top home additions, multilevel additions or multiroom additions.
