Kirkwood Custom Home Building Experience

At Kirkwood Builders, it is a lot more than just site plans and plywood. Our passion stems from knowing that we thoughtfully planned, managed, and created a place that you can call home. The house is likely one of the most valuable personal assets that you will own, and we take pride in knowing that we have delivered a superior house that will last for generations. 

There is immense satisfaction that comes from managing to build homes that bring such personal fulfillment to the families that we work with, and we look forward to building dream homes for the families we have yet to meet.

We would be honored to be your Clayton, NC Custom home builder, and we will promise to deliver award-winning quality houses that are built to stand the test of time.  Contact us today to get your Clayton home build project started.

Award-Winning House Design and Construction

In the 15 years that we have been building in the area, we have won quite a few parade of homes awards.  The ones that we are most proud of are 8 “Best of the Best” Gold awards, and the exclusive “perfect score” award that is reserved for properties that have extreme attention to detail & design. We just won the 2018 “Best of The Best” award for a house in April 2018, which is a testament to our pursuit of excellence.  

This is all great, and certainly a gauge for our success, but for us, there is great satisfaction that comes from being able to build houses that bring such personal fulfillment to the families that we work with, and we look forward to building dream houses for the families that we have yet to meet.

Tailor-Made approach to house construction & development.

We have been around the Clayton, NC area since we started building over 15 years ago.  Clayton is a great community for families, and this is where we are headquartered, and raise our own family. We work hand in hand with all government representatives to ensure that the houses are properly permitted, and on schedule. 

We can do tear-down rebuilds, builds on lots that you own, or we can even help you secure land in your desired area.  We truly form a partnership with the families that we work for, and we make sure that the communication lines remain open during the build process.   Our goal is 100% satisfaction, and to provide you with a house that will last for generations.
