Building a custom home is one of life’s most exciting milestones — but if you’ve never done it before, it can feel overwhelming. From design to move-in, knowing what to expect at each stage removes the guesswork and gives you confidence in the process.
At Integra Builders, we guide clients through every phase with clear communication, speed, and expert coordination. Here’s what to expect when building your custom home in 2025:
1. Initial Consultation
We start by understanding your vision, budget, and goals. We’ll review your lot (if you have one), walk through inspiration ideas, and outline next steps. If plans aren’t complete, we can help you connect with top architects and interior designers.
2. Pre-Construction Agreement
Once aligned, we enter into a pre-construction agreement that allows us to price your plans accurately, engage key vendors, and build your specification book.
3. Design + Selections
You’ll work with designers and vendors to select finishes, fixtures, and materials. We keep you on schedule, ensuring selections are made before construction begins to avoid delays.
4. Permitting & Preparation
We handle permitting, HOA approvals, and all pre-site logistics. During this time, we’re also finalizing the construction contract and timeline based on real pricing and availability.
5. Construction Begins
The exciting part: groundbreaking. You’ll see your home come to life — from foundation and framing to drywall, trim, and finishes. Our superintendent manages every detail with quality control at every stage.
6. Communication & Progress
You’ll get regular updates, photos, and walkthroughs. We track progress on a simple system so you’re never left guessing about timelines, decisions, or costs.
7. Final Walkthrough & Move-In
We do a detailed final walkthrough together, complete any final touches, and hand off a custom home that’s clean, complete, and exactly what you expected — or better.
When you build with Integra Builders, you don’t just get a house. You get a full-service team committed to delivering luxury, speed, and peace of mind.
