Our Design-Build Approach to High-Performance Building
Our DMV custom home building company specializes in high-quality, high-performance, and passive house construction. The team at August Homes builds LEED-certified homes designed for energy efficiency, durability, and healthy indoor living.
1. Construction
We begin with a meeting to look over your site, budget, timeline, and goals. Our team assesses your land (if applicable) and helps establish a clear, organized path forward for your custom home.
2. Design
Next, we collaborate with trusted architects and designers to shape your home’s layout, elevations, and finishes. Each detail is planned for efficiency, long-term performance, and timeless balance.
3. Plan
Once your design is approved, we prepare clear estimates and coordinate permits and material selections. Every choice supports your home’s beauty and overall performance.
4. Build
Construction moves forward with complete attention to detail and communication. We manage progress, complete walkthroughs, and deliver a high-performance home.
