What challenges are you facing with labor shortages or supply chains?We certainly continue to face ongoing challenges from labor shortages and supply chain delays that impact scheduling and material costs. However, our long-term relationships with trusted trades, suppliers, and craftsmen provide stability, priority access, and consistent quality. By investing in loyal partnerships and transparent collaboration, we minimize disruptions, maintain craftsmanship standards, and deliver each custom home on time with precision and care despite industry-wide constraints.

How do you ensure safety on your job sites?Safety is of utmost importance to us and we ensure onsite safety through strict compliance with OSHA and Florida Building Code standards, detailed Site-Specific Safety Plans, and mandatory Personal Protection for all workers. Regular safety meetings, jobsite inspections, and subcontractor training reinforce a culture of accountability. Clear signage, clean work zones, and documented hazard reporting keep every site organized and secure—protecting clients, crews, and visitors while maintaining our reputation for excellence and professionalism.

Combined with 3D design tools and smart home integration, technology empowers us to deliver exceptional quality, efficiency, and a seamless client experience on every custom build.

Can you describe a recent project that stood out to you?We just started the company in August on this year, but are working on an incredible project in St. Johns County that will be the final home for our clients. Being a final home, we take extra care to ask questions to ensure that we get the best results for our clients and incorporate the features and details, as well as functionality for the balance of their time in their home. Considerations like aging in place, and the associated features that align with ease of function are discussed and executed to allow for them to enjoy life in their home long term.
