Building a custom home is a great way to ensure your dwelling has the features and space for the entire family to feel comfortable. When you’re starting from scratch, the team at B. E. Vaughan & Son knows there are several contributing factors to how long the project will take to complete. Based in High Point, NC, the general contractor provides renovation, installation, and construction services for commercial and residential properties throughout the area. 

To get an idea of when you can settle into your new digs, High Point’s remodeling pros share three contributors that influence the construction timeline for your custom home:

• Location: Where you plan to build could add or subtract a few months from the project. As the land is already developed, custom-built homes in metropolitan areas typically take the shortest time to complete at seven months. Land surveying and clearing are normally required for custom home construction in rural locations throughout the Mid-Atlantic. This means the entire process could take upwards of nine months to finish. 
• Floor Plan: The complexity of the floor plan makes a huge difference in whether the project will take a few months or longer. Most contractors are experienced in basic concepts, so standard floor plans take the least amount of time to complete. Variations, construction delays, and learning new building methods will add time to intricate floor layouts. 
• Permit Requirements: Before you begin construction, you will have to get the appropriate permits, pass inspections, and meet additional codes and guidelines set by the local government and building organizations. Specific requirements and the length of the approval process vary from location to location.
