Don’t judge the lack of landscaping! Just feast your eyes on this perfect lake house exterior. With help from K.B. Crail Inc. & SK Exteriors, this home turned out even better than we imagined.
THANK YOU to our rockstar team!

Thinking about building but not ready for a full custom build? Our shell packages might be exactly what you need. 👏 Our shell packages typically include:
• foundation (crawlspace, slab, or basement)
• garage floor + porch caps
• full framing + roof system
• windows + exterior doors
• exterior finish to create an airtight, lockable structure (house wrap)
This is a GREAT option for families who want to SAVE money by finishing some of the interior work themselves while still having the confidence that the structure, envelope, and layout are professionally built.

LOOK at all of the storage in this bathroom! Talk about maximizing your space. LOVE. ...
Thank you, God! Happy Easter to you all. ...
Overlaid the basement plan so you can see exactly how it all fits in real time.
This lower level is next-level: 🎭 full theater room, 🎶 dedicated music room, 🍷climate-controlled wine cellar, ⛳️golf simulator bay, open living space with a bar🍻, 💪🏼gym, 🛌 bunk room, and two guest bedrooms. Basically everything you’d want when you never want to go upstairs.
Watching a plan like this turn into actual walls is going to be a sight to see
What’s the one feature you’d put in your dream basement? Drop it in the comments.

I started to type, “As you go about your day, take a moment to remember …” Nope. That’s not it. That’s not gonna do it.
With every breath you take, THANK GOD today. Use your words to exalt him. Jesus was crucified & died for our sins so that we could live unburdened and forgiven. Thank you God, for sending your one and only son down to die on the cross & save our lives. Thank you, Jesus!

DID YOU KNOW … only about 40% - 50-% of new homes have bath tubs in the master bathroom? TOTALLY personal preference. A good rule of thumb is to have one somewhere in the home, but master is not required anymore!
If you were building, would you put a tub in your bathroom? Let’s see if our friends line up with what the nation is saying. COMMENT BELOW!

Been thinking about this for a while and today feels like a good day to announce it! Thinking that Adam Drake will head up our new divisions. Congrats Adam! ...
Do we love these stairs? YES. Are we mildly obsessed? DUH.
ONE QUESTION THAT’S BEEN ON EVERYONE’S MIND THOUGH: Do you think some type of carpet/nonslip factor, should be installed on all stairs? This is totally an opinion, so let’s hear yours!

Our masons use a custom templated brace to hold each piece steady while they lay the curve. Once it’s all in place, we pull the brace and let physics take over: the compression between the bricks does the heavy lifting. No fancy extras, just centuries-old technique executed perfectly. #BrickArches #MasonryCraft #CustomHomeBuild #BehindTheBuild #LegendKurtCrail ...
