Chapter 02 · Design

Design, build, or renovate.

From custom homes to remodels, we guide your project from start to finish — with a clear plan, real estimates, and an in-house designer who's part of every choice.

Custom homes

Semi-custom and fully custom new construction. Start from a Spivey plan, tune one you love, or design ground-up with our team.

Renovations & remodels

Whole-home transformations, kitchens, baths, primary suites. Bring the same Spivey craft and design eye to the home you already love.

Additions & conversions

Second-story pop-tops, bump-outs, garage conversions, ADUs. Adding the room you need without leaving the lot you love.

Shops & outbuildings

Detached shops, carports, accessory dwellings. From bare-bones storage to finished living quarters above.

In-house design

Where great design starts.

Great design is what separates a house from a home you'll love for decades. Our in-house designer guides every choice — from floor plan flow to fixtures — so the final result is functional, beautiful, and uniquely yours.

You'll complete our Design Questionnaire early on so we understand your taste, lifestyle, and budget priorities. Her answers shape both her recommendations and our build estimate.

Her role
Help you avoid the costly, hard-to-undo mistakes — awkward flow, undersized closets, poor light, fixtures that fight the architecture.
Four design phases

What you'll choose, and when.

We break selections into four sittings instead of handing you one overwhelming list. Each phase gets picked and priced before the next one opens, so nothing gets decided twice.
