The Copper Experience

Sq ft pricing is the number one comparison people look to make, however this is the most inaccurate way to prepare yourself to build a new home.  At Copper Falls we break down all the building costs and show you where your money is going.  Builders can calculate a sqft estimate in different ways and many times homes the same size can vary in price drastically depending on finishing and design.  

A custom home allows you to personally design your home and all the functional aspects for your lifestyle.  We design homes with our clients and help them to achieve all the things they want their home to include in their day to day life.  

Yes. We do large scale renovations and help prepare potential customers on the challenges that come with renovating their home.  

The majority of our projects are cost plus contracts.  This type of contract allows customers to see where their money is going and make decisions accordingly to keep their budget on track.  It also allows customers to be open about their budget goals from the start, so that realistic expectations can be discussed from the initial meeting.  

The process of finding the right builder can be difficult, obviously the price is a large part of your decision, however trying to compare apples to apples on a project with so many details is near impossible.  We make full, detailed breakdowns of the project, along with having the flexibility of a cost plus contract so our customers can see where their money is being spent.
