36 Years of experience in residential construction
Naturally a custom house consists of personal design elements, making the house your own creation. From our perspective, a custom home should take the building a step further: With a background that originated as a framing contractor, the founder of Shaye West understands the importance of quality workmanship and strives to ensure that every project is completed with precision and pride.
- All slabs are reviewed and approved by a structural engineer, taking into consideration not only the structural elements of the residential construction, but the soil stability.
- We beef up the frame, using 2 x 6 studs
- Additional insulation is used within the walls and attic
- Frame is sealed around electrical & plumbing frame piercings.
We pride ourselves on project management, and this is exactly what you want in a custom home builder:
- the knowledge of the sequence of the construction elements
- critical points of design vs. actual construction feasibility

Time to get started…what’s the process and what is important to you?
·
Already have an idea of the style house: ranch, two-story, number of bedrooms and bathrooms, attached or detached garage, etc. Whether you already have your lot / acreage or are in the process of purchasing, let Chuck meet with you at the property to discuss the various aspects of house placement:
o Does this lot have a view?
o Will the topography of the lot require excavation to accommodate the footprint?
o Optimum placement for orientation to the sun for energy efficiency.
o If this is within a subdivision, what are the set backs, restrictions, design restrictions?
Every consideration is given to the design and aesthetic elements, so be sure to ask questions and provide ideas. It’s your custom home. Chuck began his career as a framer, so he is very “hands on” when building your home. "If you have any questions regarding the process, I will always discuss the various elements. Ultimately it’s your house, I’m there to make sure it’s built right – it’s personal for both parties,” says Chuck.

Already have a set of house plans drawn by a local designer or architect? Perfect, with a completed set of plans Chuck can provide you with a bid, complete with written specifications and a list of all allowances included.
Have a plan from the internet or a rough draft created from your own ideas? Chuck can recommend several accomplished residential designers in order to have a cohesive set of plans created. These will be required for the bidding process, submission for permits, subdivision architectural approval, etc. As a part of the design process, you, Chuck and the designer will meet at the property in order to obtain a better understanding of the ideas and expectations for the future home.
After gathering information regarding material and preliminary finishes, the designer will have a preliminary floor plan for review and discussion. Chuck will look at the foot print of the home in order to determine whether or not the footprint will fit on the lot correctly; the driveway will work with any slope on the lot and fit within all required setbacks. There will always be adjustments; it’s all a part of customizing.
Once the plans have been finalized, we will provide a complete bid including all specifications and line item allowances.
Once an agreement has been reached regarding costs and the basic contract is signed, the building process is nearly ready to begin. After the terms for payment are in place, it’s ready….set…go!
