"We hired Poe Legacy Construction for two large remodels and a few small projects. We will hire them again! On separate occasions Andrew's team helped us remodel our master bathroom, our kitchen/pantry/dining room, give our builder-grade carpeted staircase a facelift, and replaced our water heater. I only have images of the bathroom to share, but three years later and I still love it!"

My name is Travis Adams, I am a custom architectural and floorplan designer focusing on residential new construction and remodel projects, as well as Agricultural and industrial buildings such as horse facilities, Barns and metal buildings. With almost a decade of experience as a designer/ drafter as well as an extensive background of over 20 years in the Custom home building business, I have a hands on knowledge of the things that I draw. My goal is to listen to the customers needs and design a home that will fit there lives and budget specifically. I believe in creating beautiful, functional floorplans with limited wasted space. I can design projects from scratch or, I am also more than happy to adapt an existing plan to fit someone’s wish list.

"Travis brought our dream home to life! After struggling with another drafter who couldn’t quite capture our vision, Travis exceeded all expectations. Every space in the house is thoughtfully and practically designed, and his talent and experience are truly unmatched. He was attentive, easy to work with, and provided excellent customer service throughout the entire process. Our home is still under construction, and we constantly hear how perfect the layout is — a true testament to his skill and dedication. We couldn’t be more grateful!"

Custom Home Builders questions, answered by experts

It is almost always more affordable to buy an existing home than to build one from scratch. First of all, new construction mortgage interest rates are often higher than traditional loans. Also, when building a home, you're covering the cost of brand-new finishes, appliances, electrics, plumbing, utility hookups, and labor. Between the cost of labor and permits, building a home will often cost more in the long run.

Green homes are often more expensive to build, averaging around $200 per square foot compared to the $150 per square foot you’d spend to build a standard home. However, green homes can save you money on your utility bills by consuming less energy or creating energy using solar panels or wind turbines on-site. They’re more expensive to build, but they often end up costing less in the long run.

In most cases, you should get an architect before you hire a builder. An architect will be the one to draw up formal plans for your project, including guidelines and even material lists for your builder to follow during construction. Many architects can even help you find builders, choose one for your project, and negotiate prices. Some are also willing to act as project managers throughout the process, working closely with a builder from start to finish.

One starting point to find a local home builder is to collect suggestions from friends and neighbors. However, it’s still wise to do some more research before you hire a builder. Read reviews to supplement any word-of-mouth recommendations. Check sources like Angi that have standards and criteria in place to screen the pros it lists can also help you find more reputable local home builders.

Custom homes can take an average of 18 months to build, mainly due to the lengthy design process, and most projects take somewhere between 12 and 24 months. When you work with the right custom home builders near you, they can help you map the road ahead and understand what can speed up or delay the timeline. Choosing locally available materials, for example, can speed things up without losing that customized touch.
