Your Step-by-Step Guide to Building a Custom Home in Spring Branch With K&M Construction

From Initial Design to Move-In Day, We Support You Throughout Your Home-Building Journey

Building a custom home in Spring Branch is exciting—but it’s also a big commitment. At K&M Construction, we believe the process should be just as rewarding as the final result. Whether you're building your forever home or a weekend retreat in the Hill Country, here’s exactly what to expect along the way.

Step 1: Discovery & Vision

We begin with a conversation—not about square footage or finishes just yet, but about you. How do you live? What do you value in a home? From family dynamics to future plans, we listen and gather insight to help shape a home that fits not just your land, but your life.

Step 2: Site Review & Feasibility

Next, we walk your property in Spring Branch together. We evaluate orientation, slope, drainage, and the natural features that can elevate your home’s layout. This step is about understanding the land so your home feels grounded—both literally and aesthetically.

Step 3: Design Collaboration

Now the fun begins. Working with trusted architects or designers (yours or ours), we refine your floor plan, adjust for views and flow, and ensure the layout aligns with your lifestyle. Want a flex space that can evolve with your family? Prioritize outdoor living? This is where we tailor the blueprint around your goals.

Step 4: Budgeting & Specifications

Transparency is key. We walk you through selections, allowances, and construction costs, line by line. Because this is a major investment, we never want you to be surprised—only satisfied. We’ll also help you understand what’s included in your energy-efficient features, materials, and long-term maintenance benefits.

Step 5: Construction & Communication

With the plan in place, we break ground—and stay in close contact from the first dig to final finishes. Our subcontractors are trusted professionals, our timelines are realistic, and we’re always available to answer your questions. You’re not a project number; you’re a partner.

Step 6: Finishing Touches & Final Walkthrough

This is where your vision becomes tangible. We’ll walk through your finished home together to ensure every detail meets our standard—and yours. From waterproofing to trim work, we never cut corners. If it’s not right, we make it right.

Step 7: Move-In, Settle In, Stay Connected

You’ve got the keys—but we’re still here. Our relationship doesn’t end when you move in. We’re always available for guidance, maintenance questions, and support long after the final box is unpacked.

Building a custom home in Spring Branch doesn’t have to be overwhelming. With K&M Construction, you’ll have a clear process, a steady hand, and a home that’s uniquely yours from day one.
