Does he give proper attention to Preparation?

 
 

 

 

Another thing you often hear from homebuilders is:  "We'll play it by ear" or "We'll cross that bridge when we get to it."  At Keith White Custom Homes  planning and looking ahead are essential processes. We'll never have to "cross a bridge" that we haven't planned at the outset. Keith White has been preparing himself to build your home for most of his life.  From those experiences shared with him by his homebuilder grandfather, to the position he held with Barton's Lumber and Building Materials guiding and instructing builders in the techniques of cost estimating.  Accompanied by many hours in classes studying this craft, he worked for several years at Barton's honing his skills until he became widely respected and sought after by builders to do their estimating.  Since building their first home in 1994,  Keith White Custom Homes has taken this same hands-on approach. This guarantees personal involvement in advanced design ideas, capable project management and the ability to guide homebuyers through the entire construction process. Keith White Custom Homes is your direct link with workers and subcontractors so there's no loss in communication. Keith White is on each job site daily to oversee every aspect of your home construction, from the initial design to the final walk-through.

You hear many homebuilders grumbling about a shortage of labor.  Construction is hard work and it sometimes attracts workers who jump aboard just long enough to snag a big check and then suddenly go missing in action. The key to success in homebuilding is to attract dependable, long term employees.  But to attract them, the builder also has to be dependable.  Can he keep them working year 'round? To keep Keith White Custom Homes going and our employees and  subcontractors busy all year around, we fill in between custom homes with spec homes. The combination is great because we can suspend work on spec homes at any time to devote more time to custom jobs. By doing both types of building we have year round work and can keep crews busy, and that makes the steady, family man type worker loyal to us. When the economy slows down we take on more custom work . When the market is hot we build more spec homes. Once again, it boils down to caring about your reputation and taking care of the people who work for you. For example, we have an master cabinet maker on staff year round. He even works with us in the planning stages which is wonderful. He works exclusively for us and we give him all our cabinet work. This is another way we assure that a client will never feel short changed.
