Homes Built for How You Actually Live

Custom Home Construction

There's no version of building a custom home in the Nevada County foothills that doesn't require someone who actually knows this terrain. The slope, the fire zone requirements, the septic, the county permit process, these aren't details you learn on your first foothill project.

We've been building here for two decades. We work closely with your architect or help you find the right one. We manage the full process from permit submission to final walkthrough. And when you move in, your home is backed by our 5-year structural warranty, not the industry-standard one year.

What's Included

• Full pre-construction planning and feasibility assessment
• Architectural design coordination
• Nevada County and Placer County permitting
• Site work, grading, and foundation
• Full-scope construction through finish
• Final walkthrough and warranty documentation

Best For

Buyers who have purchased land in the foothills and are ready to build a primary or second home. Remote professionals, retirees, and families relocating from the Bay Area or Sacramento who want a home designed specifically for how they live.

ADU Construction

An ADU adds living space, rental income potential, or multigenerational flexibility to your property, but only if it's built right and permitted clean.

Nevada County ADU builds aren't like valley builds. Septic capacity, setback rules, fire zone requirements, and slope all play a role. We know the local codes and the permit pathways. We've done this here, on terrain like yours.

Whether you're building a detached guest house, converting a garage, or creating a private living space for family, we guide you through the entire process from planning and permitting to final construction.

What's Included

• Site feasibility evaluation
• Septic and utility coordination
• ADU permitting and zoning compliance
• Design collaboration and planning support
• Ground-up ADU construction
• Interior and exterior finishing
  

Best For

Homeowners looking to create additional living space, generate rental income, support multigenerational living, or increase long-term property value with a fully permitted ADU built specifically for Nevada County conditions.

Large-Scale Renovations & Additions

A home that doesn't serve your family is a problem that gets more expensive the longer you wait. We specialize in the kind of renovation that changes how a home functions, not cosmetic refreshes, but structural changes, room additions, whole-floor renovations, and projects that require a real general contractor, not a handyman.

We help homeowners rework outdated layouts, expand living areas, modernize older homes, and improve the way their home supports daily life while preserving the character that made them fall in love with it in the first place.

What's Included

• Kitchen and bathroom renovations
• Room additions and second-story additions
• Whole-home renovations
• Structural modifications
• Garage conversions and expansions
• Deck and outdoor living structures
  
  

Best For

Homeowners who bought a home that doesn't quite work for how they live and want to transform it rather than move. Also ideal for those who purchased an older Nevada County home and want to modernize it without losing the character that made them buy it.
