Building Custom Homes FAQs
As a leader in the Toronto Custom Built Home industry, we receive inquiries on a frequent basis. Listed below are answers to the most frequently asked questions.
Is there a difference between a regular home and a custom built home?
Yes. The key differences between a regular home and a custom built home are the amount of choices clients get to make and the quality of building materials. Regularly built homes are often created to be all the same and are placed in large sub-division developments, with only a few custom options to select from. Custom built home owners have the agency to choose every small detail, the materials used, and house layout. Customization and quality are two major reasons why custom home building is better than regular homes.
How long does it take to build a custom home?
This answer tends to vary. On average, a custom built home takes between one and a half to two years to fully complete. Although, depending on the size of the home and the amount of laborers, materials, and budget, this timeline can change.
Can I visit the lot while my custom home is being built?
Absolutely! We want our clients to be as involved in their home development as much as they would like to be. By coming to the construction site, you are not only able to view the progress of your home, but you can also point out any changes you want made before it’s too late. It’s important to give us notice when you plan on coming, just so we can ensure the lot is safe for visitors.
What does the building process look like for a custom home?
There are 4 phases of building a custom home.
- Land purchase: You need to work with a real estate agent to find the perfect lot for your new home.
- Design: This usually entails in-depth appointments with architects and engineers to produce blueprints of your custom home.
- Permits: As with any type of construction, gaining a permit from the city is mandatory to begin the build.
- Construction: Building your custom dream home with our highly experienced construction team.
