How it works
Five steps, one team
One contract and one point of contact, from the first conversation to delivery.
Step 1
Consultation & feasibility
We walk the site, review your goals and budget range, and check zoning and utilities before anything gets drawn.
Step 2
Design & engineering
Plans, engineering, and pricing come together under one roof, so the design stays tied to what it costs to build.
Step 3
Permitting
We prepare and file the submittals and work through review with Wilmington and New Hanover County.
Step 4
Construction
The same team that designed the project builds it, under one contract and with one point of contact.
Step 5
Delivery
Final inspections, closeout documents, and a walkthrough. You receive a finished building ready to use.

FAQ
New construction questions
Do I need to own a lot first?
No. We can review a lot you own, have under contract, or are considering.
Do you start from my plans or design from scratch?
Our process is design-build, so design is part of the project. Tell us what you have and we will talk through the best way to start.
What is the difference between a custom ADU and a Wilmington ADU package?
A custom ADU is designed for your lot and your needs. Wilmington ADU Solutions, our sister company, offers pre-designed ADU packages.
Where do you build?
We build across southeastern North Carolina, including New Hanover, Brunswick, and Pender counties.
How long does a custom home take?
It depends on the design, the site, and permitting. We build the schedule during design, so you see the timeline before construction starts.
