Custom home construction does not have to be as intimidating in practice as it seems in theory, especially when you have experienced, competent builders there to carry out house plans according to your vision. We know how to make the whole process smooth and stress-free.
Whether you already have partial house plans or are starting from scratch, we can finalize custom home plans, get zoning approval, obtain permits, make land improvements, and break ground. We will invite you to the site for walkthroughs periodically, and you may make final decisions on finishes during later walkthroughs with our trusted vendors.

Your first interaction with Blythe Custom Homes will be the initial consultation, followed by an in-depth conversation about the vision you have for the new build, something we call the “vision meeting.” We leave no stone unturned at this stage, asking lots of questions about your aesthetic preferences and functional features.
You are encouraged to bring pictures, swatches, and other sources of inspiration. We also urge you to be as specific as you can about your must-have items. As we iron out the budget, we can work with you to make sure that the things that are most important to you can fit into the plan.
This is just the starting point to see if we are a good fit to plan and build your custom home in Gilbert. To feel as comfortable as possible moving forward, bring up any questions you have during the consultation.
If you already have house plans drawn up by an outside architect, we can help you bring them to life and build the custom home in Gilbert. We can also edit plans you already have and make them more functional for you and your family.
You can include many unique, useful elements in a custom build, such as a walk-in pantry to accommodate your large family and an outdoor kitchen for you to enjoy when the weather is nice, which is often in South Carolina. Tell us more about the elements you want, and we can include them in the plans we craft.
We can help plan custom builds from scratch and also have an extensive portfolio of base house plans that clients can work from and further personalize. If you do not know exactly what you are looking for, we can show you different styles and options to help you decide.
You get the final say on custom home construction plans. That said, we may still need zoning approval before moving forward with any residential construction in Gilbert, and we must submit the final plans to get it.
Many homeowners finance custom builds with construction-to-permanent loans, which convert to traditional mortgages at the end of construction and require paying only one set of closing costs.
Only spend what you are comfortable spending on custom home construction in Gilbert. We can honor your budget when planning and helping you choose building materials and finishes.
To prepare the lot for custom home construction, we may test and fortify the soil, remove plants and trees, add access roads, and even add utility access if you are building on undeveloped land in South Carolina.
You can periodically visit the building site during construction on your custom home, and we will plan walkthroughs after completing important phases. We ask clients to avoid showing up at the active building site unannounced, as we always want to prioritize their safety.
How long it takes to build your custom home depends on many factors, such as the home’s size, whether the land is developed, potential supply chain issues, weather delays, and more. We can estimate the building timeline and keep you updated on the progress.
To build a custom home in South Carolina, you will need a residential construction permit as well as permits for HVAC, plumbing, electrical, and gas work. We are responsible for obtaining all permits for your new home in Gilbert and can factor permit costs into the budget.
Avoid going over budget for custom home construction by letting us make room for contingencies in your budget from the get-go. That way, if an expensive issue arises, your existing budget may cover the cost without trouble.
You can select finishes for your new custom build early on in the planning process. Some homeowners want to see more of the final product before selecting all the finishes. In these situations, homeowners can meet with vendors on walkthroughs to make their decisions.
We can intentionally make your home more energy-efficient by using roofing materials, insulation, windows, doors, water heaters, and other appliances in a custom building in South Carolina.
Fall is a popular time to start construction in South Carolina because of the cooler weather, but this can create supply chain issues and increase demand for materials. So, spring is also a good option.
