Custom Home Design That Fits Your Life—and the Land

At Dow Construction, we design homes that work for you—your lifestyle, your needs, and your land. Our custom plans are tailored to your lot, taking into account sun, slope, wind, and water so your home sits naturally in the environment—not just on it.

By combining smart architectural design with durable, low-maintenance materials, we’re able to build homes that are both functional and beautiful. From rooflines to trim details, every element is crafted to enhance curb appeal while reducing long-term upkeep. The result is a home that looks great, works hard, and lasts for generations.

Let us help you create something timeless, practical, and perfectly suited to where—and how—you want to live.

  • Custom Homes

    Dow Construction offers three home plans we’ve designed: a Cape, a Bungalow, and a Modern Farmhouse. Each incorporates design features that reduce maintenance and enhance the longevity of the materials we use. These plans are customizable to fit different needs and budgets while ensuring long-lasting durability.

  • Home Remodels

    Our team specializes in home remodels that transform your space while enhancing its functionality and value. Whether it’s a kitchen update, bathroom renovation, or whole-home overhaul, we focus on quality craftsmanship and design that meets your needs. Our remodels are built to last, using durable materials and smart design choices that improve your home’s longevity and minimize maintenance.

  • Home Additions

    We create home additions that enhance your living space and seamlessly integrate with your existing home. Whether it’s adding a new bedroom, office, or extended living area, we focus on quality construction and thoughtful design. Our additions are built for long-term durability, with materials and craftsmanship that minimize maintenance and stand the test of time.

  • Barns and Garages

    We build custom garages and barns that enhance the functionality and value of your property. Whether you're looking for extra storage space, a workshop, or a place to house equipment, our structures are designed to meet your needs. With quality materials and expert craftsmanship, we ensure your garage or barn will provide lasting utility and value.

Our Process

1. Initial Connection and Consultation

  • Customer Inquiry: The process begins when a potential client reaches out to us, whether via phone, email, or website inquiry.

  • Consultation: We schedule a meeting or call to discuss the customer’s needs, project vision, and budget. This is where we get to know the client’s goals and preferences.

  • Site Visit: For more complex projects, we arrange an on-site visit to evaluate the space, take measurements, and gather any necessary information to provide an accurate estimate.

2. Proposal and Design Discussion

  • Project Estimate: Based on the consultation and site visit, we provide an initial estimate or range for the project.

  • Design Options: If the project involves custom work, we share design options (e.g., home additions, remodels, garages) and walk the client through the process of selecting materials, styles, and features.

  • Approval: Once we agree on the scope, design, and budget, we finalize the contract and get approval to proceed.

3. Planning and Coordination

  • Detailed Plan: We create a detailed project plan, timeline, and budget breakdown, ensuring all parties are aligned on expectations.

  • Permitting and Approvals: If required, we handle permitting and inspections, ensuring compliance with local regulations and codes.

  • Material Selection: The customer selects materials (or we offer suggestions) from trusted suppliers based on the agreed-upon budget and design preferences.

4. Construction and Project Management

  • Project Kickoff: Once all materials are on hand and permits are in place, construction begins. We assign a dedicated project manager to oversee the day-to-day operations.

  • Ongoing Communication: We provide regular updates to the customer throughout the project. This includes progress reports, photos, and addressing any questions or concerns promptly.

  • Quality Control: Throughout the build, we ensure that all work meets the highest standards of quality, and we inspect every detail for craftsmanship and durability.

5. Final Walkthrough and Completion

  • Customer Walkthrough: Upon project completion, we walk through the finished space with the customer to ensure everything meets their expectations.

  • Adjustments: If there are any final adjustments or touch-ups, we take care of them immediately to guarantee customer satisfaction.

  • Project Closeout: Once the customer is fully satisfied, we finalize the project and provide any necessary maintenance or care instructions for their new space.

6. Post-Project Follow-Up

  • Feedback: We ask for feedback from the customer to ensure our service met or exceeded expectations and use this to continuously improve.

  • Maintenance and Referral: We offer maintenance tips and encourage customers to reach out for future projects or referrals. We also ask for a review or testimonial, if applicable.

7. Ongoing Relationship

  • Future Projects: We maintain open communication for future projects, whether it’s a new addition, remodel, or maintenance work. We also stay in touch for seasonal checks or upgrades.
