What to Expect When Building a Custom Home

There’s a common misconception that building a custom home is a confusing and complicated process. An average homeowner trying to navigate the design and build of a custom home on their own could be overwhelmed, but with the right partner, it’s extremely clear and straightforward.

It’s important to choose the right company when building a custom home because they should be able to guide you through the whole process so you always know what to expect. A quality custom home builder will know different neighborhoods and can help you find the perfect location to build, whether it’s an empty lot of an infill property. They should also have experts in every field to advise about design elements and finishes. Most importantly, the perfect partner will be there after you’ve moved in to ensure everything is perfect.

Omega Homes is a full-service firm that can walk you through every step of the custom build process and our expert team is made up of professionals that will ensure your vision becomes a reality. When you contact us, we’ll set up an appointment to discuss what kind of home you’re envisioning, where you want to live and the overall budget.

From there, we’ll put together a proposal that incorporates your requirements and outlines the overall costs associated with the build. If you need help finding a lot, we’re very familiar with the different areas of Ottawa—from downtown to Manotick—and can scout out the perfection location for you and your future home. After signing an agreement that clearly outlines key completion dates, we’ll work to obtain permits and clear the land while you work with the design and architectural teams to customize your home.

As the building moves forward, we’ll be in close contact to keep you updated and answer any questions you may have. After the finishing touches have been completed, we’ll complete the pre-delivery inspection (PDI) and walkthrough. And our commitment doesn’t end once you move in—if there are any concerns or if issues arise, we’re available to make adjustments.

When you choose the right company, building a custom home can be clear and straightforward.
