Custom Home FAQ’s
Custom refers to the fact that a client designs both the interior and the exterior, with our expert assistance of course. Luxury refers to the fact that usually it is complete with high-end finishes ex. flooring, windows, fixtures, etc.
The majority of our projects are between 1500-3000 sqft of interior living space, not including a basement (which not all builds have). Some are as high as 10,000 or more. However, size doesn’t play as much of a factor as complexity of the design and scope of the project.
“Typical” features are the usual bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen… but they are all fairly luxurious or high end. Some more unique features would be a wine fridge or a wine cellar, waterfall bathroom fixtures, theatre room, sauna, outdoor tennis court/sports court, outdoor kitchens and entertainment spaces.
We don’t have a “starting” price because every project depends on the custom features you want to include. Contact us here to get your quote and pricing started!
You want to be aware of the “normal” contractor things like keeping promises, not cutting corners, using quality building materials, having excellent construction techniques, and more. Here at Gilbert + Burke, we bring all of this and something else to the table: relationships. We don’t view your home as another project – we view it as a way to learn to know your family and help your dream home come true!
It usually depends on the complexity of the design and the size of the build, but from start of design, through project development, to completed construction in typically 12-18 months.
Our builds are 100% customized to what our clients ask us for and are willing to pay for.
We begin with the initial consultation, followed by a preliminary concept design, and then project development. Once everything is approved, we break ground and start building your dream home!
