Cumberland Custom Home Builder Pricing You Can Plan Around
With Southpaw Homes as your Cumberland custom home builder, you have a figure to plan around at every step. Before you pay for design, we give you a realistic budget range and a likely schedule. We price your plans through trade bids, and as with all our custom homes, you agree to one contract sum with clear inclusions. Any later change is priced in a written change order before work on it starts.
Once construction starts, you can follow the work from wherever you are. Every week we send you a JobTread report with photos, the schedule status and progress by cost code, so you can see what has been done and what is coming next. Between reports, the client portal shows you the daily logs at any hour.

What You Get When Southpaw Builds Your Home
As your general contractor, we take responsibility for each stage of the build.
01
Lot Walk and Feasibility
We visit the lot with you, check its zoning and services, and point out slope, rock or access problems while they are still easy to design around.
02
Design and Selections
We coordinate your designer and structural engineer and settle every selection with you, so the drawings are complete before any trade prices them.
03
Construction
We schedule the trades in order and check the quality of each stage. At milestones, you tour the work with us and approve the next steps.
04
Handover and Aftercare
We explain your home's systems, put your manuals, paint schedules and trade contacts in one digital package, and check in at 30 days and one year.
Building Your Custom Home in Cumberland
We manage your permits and inspections with the Village of Cumberland.
Lot Reviews
We Can Review a Lot Before You Buy It
Before you make an offer in Cumberland, we find out whether a nearby creek or wetland, or the Village's groundwater area, brings the lot under extra permit rules.

Additions and Renovations From the Same Team
If you would rather keep an older character home than replace it, we renovate the kitchen, bathrooms or whole house so your home suits how you live now and keeps the character you chose it for. We fix the price before work starts, as with a new home.

What does a custom home cost in Cumberland?
