Quality Home Building Tips

Steve Boyd and the team of professionals at Boyd Custom Homes offer a surprisingly diverse range of design options that cater to each clients needs, budget, and personal preferences. While our most popular architectural styles of new homes tend to be modern contemporary , we also build more traditional designed homes for those who love other time tested designs.

What immediately stands out about Boyd Homes is how each client is able to start with a fresh new design from scratch or can select a popular plan and maintain a percentage of the home plan while offering genuine variety by modifying parts of the plan to fit your family needs and lifestyle.

For each homes finish-out, our Signature Luxury Home Collection represents some of our brand’s most recognizable features. These homes feature clean lines, minimalist hardware, and subtle branding that whispers rather than shouts luxury. The walls maybe a whiter white or a off white, or some clients prefer a palette of sophisticated colors that somehow manages to be both timeless and rich.

For the kitchen, our cabinet designs include more organizational features and expandability options, making them favorites among homeowners who love to cook and entertain. All cabinets are built from scratch in Fort Worth.

Quality Materials and Craftsmanship Matter:

When investing in building a new luxury home, material quality becomes paramount. We certainly understand this fundamental truth, by selecting materials that balance durability with aesthetic appeal.

Our go to window is the Andersen 400 series and the E series windows. Unlike cheaper vinyl found in budget options, wood windows offers superior impact resistance, better energy efficiency, longevity, and offering the substantial look of luxury.

The attention to every detail extends throughout the home including hardware components and many other features. Door and cabinet knobs by Emtek and Baldwin , countertops by Cambria and Caesarstone , 20 seer HVAC units, appliances by Wolf/ Subzero , ice and water shield in roof valleys and leak prone areas, and so much more.

Durability: Will It Go the Distance?

The true test of any new construction home isn’t just how it looks at completion, but how it performs after being lived in, and subjected to the general exterior elements.

We have developed a reputation for resilience that generally justifies using premium materials. The construction quality tends to address and prevent common failure points:

• Reinforced corner protection on foundation with deeper beams and all steel rebar

• Simpson hurricane clips and straps on all large openings

• Over Engineered LVL's and framing

• 1.18" advantec subfloor glued and screwed on 2nd story homes

• More anchor bolts than required

• Aquor Water Source hose bibs (leak proof and frost proof)

• Using the best tile mortar for the application to virtually eliminate tile cracks

• Premium Sherwin Williams Paints ( Cashmere, Duration , Latitude)
