Built Green Custom Homes

Loved the Building process. The fact that we "had a say in it" we could pick contractors, colors, tiles, etc. Nothing was done without our approval. We built 2 homes with Built Green Custom Homes. They helped us a lot.

We had one hiccup and that was the assigned consultant not being professional. After she was replaced it was great

We attended Built Green's seminars off and on for a couple of years before we finally started. Dennis and his staff's assistance were essential to the success of our build. I am a software engineer with some good DIY experience and had built a barn, but had not done home construction before with code compliance and the difficulties with getting a construction loan. Dennis also helped us get past a difficult foundation contractor. We were able to incorporate features that would not have been possible with a traditional builder and the budget we had. House particulars: 3500 ft2, rainwater supply for all household needs, separate gray water and black water septic, bottom floor heated in winter, blower door test: 0.99, age-in-place features like zero step shower. If we didn't love the house so much, we would definitely do it again.

Working with Built Green was a great experience. I took all their classes before I began and really learned a lot. The best part of that is knowing exactly what you’ve built when it’s complete, the characteristics of the materials you chose , and how everything in your house works. I appreciate their contract advice, forms and
learning contractor selection criteria. They are with you every step of the way. My house is now almost 10 years old. I have never had a lick of trouble with it, and it looks brand new. With Built Green you learn how to manage your contractors and make sure no corners were cut. It makes building cheaper and better. If you’re thinking about a custom-built house, do it yourself with Built Green.

Great people, great experience.

A proven process that works. Dennis and his team are top shelf. The best. I had one of the best experiences of my life...after getting married and the birth of my 4 kids of course.

We looked at many different options when we were looking to build our first home and none of them seemed to fit what we were hoping to do or they were cost prohibitive. Built Green Custom Homes checked all of the boxes we were looking for. If you want to truly be involved in the building of your home, then Built Green is for you. We were initially intimidated by what we were undertaking, but our fears were quickly alleviated. They step you through the process and have trusted contractors, so most of the most intimidating parts are eliminated. It does require commitment and time on your part, but it is so worth it in the end. Not only do you get exactly the house that you want, but you also are able to do it for a fraction of the cost of going through a traditional builder. At the end of the day, we learned so much that we previously didn't know and we will use this knowledge...

Our experience with BGCH was an absolute pleasure! They have a really elaborate system in place making your build as simple as possible while helping you save money along the way. Our representative was always a phone call away anytime guidance was needed or to have a question answered. Whether you are a first time home builder or have built a home or two in the past, I highly recommend BGCH to work with you through the process.

Built Green Custom Homes (BGCH) was an answer to prayers. We had just moved from Canada to retire wanting to be near family and re-establish roots. At the time we were looking for land and a builder and we were shocked at pricing. It just seemed building our retirement home would be beyond reach.

We did find a great piece of property in Bulverde, to one day build on, and while at a Parade of Homes in the same development we passed a display of BGCH and because of my wife's initiative we stopped in and had a great visit with Dennis and Charlie and boy am I glad we did.

We found that BGCH offered a great program for an owner builder approach (which suited me well as I wanted to keep myself busy after being newly retired). We were enticed at the potential savings which meant we could afford what we wanted.
Also it was comforting that we would be more...

When we decided to retire in the Texas Hill Country, we considered different options including building ourselves to buying an existing home. Built Green matched our plans the best and we signed up.

We felt confident we had the ability to be our own contractor but needed a “safety net” since it’s been many years since we built our last home ourselves. We didn’t have enough information about subs in our new neighborhood or the current prices for labor or the latest building materials used in today’s market. We felt that working with an experienced team would help us save money and avoid costly mistakes in the long run.

The classes offered by (Dennis Celsor) on Zoom were very helpful and we didn’t miss a single one. They were interactive with questions answered instantly, individually and pertinent to our situations.

We learned a lot from others...

Built a great home well below market value
