Home/Service Areas
Service areaWhere we build in Central Iowa
Polk, Dallas, Warren, Story, Madison and Jasper counties. If your lot is a little outside the lines, ask — we travel for the right project.
Ankeny
Polk County
Ankeny has been the metro's growth engine for two decades, and it shows in the lot supply — new phases opening on the north and east sides every year.
Waukee
Dallas County
Waukee sits in the fastest-growing county in Iowa, and it draws families who want new construction with room to breathe.
Johnston
Polk County
Johnston's wooded lots and Beaver Creek corridor make it one of the more interesting places in the metro to design a house.
Urbandale
Polk County
Urbandale is an established city, so building here usually means a well-located infill lot rather than a new phase.
Grimes
Polk County
Grimes has grown fast along the Highway 141 corridor, with lot supply that still makes sense for a custom build.
West Des Moines
Polk & Dallas Counties
West Des Moines runs from established east-side neighborhoods to new development out past Jordan Creek and beyond.
Clive
Polk & Dallas Counties
Clive's greenbelt, mature trees and tight lot supply make it a location worth building into rather than around.
Norwalk
Warren County
Norwalk gives you a genuine small-town feel with a fifteen-minute drive to downtown Des Moines.
Bondurant
Polk County
Bondurant has been one of Iowa's fastest-growing small cities, and it still builds like a small town.
Polk City
Polk County
Polk City sits between Big Creek and Saylorville, which is why so many of our acreage clients end up looking here.
Adel
Dallas County
Adel keeps its courthouse-square character while new neighborhoods fill in around the edges.
Granger
Dallas County
Granger is small, quiet, and close enough to Saylorville and the north metro to make an acreage build make sense.
Dallas Center
Dallas County
Dallas Center offers small-town living with the Dallas Center-Grimes district and quick access to the growth corridor.
Van Meter
Dallas County
Van Meter draws people who want river valley ground and a short interstate run to the west metro.
Huxley
Story County
Huxley sits about halfway between Des Moines and Ames, which suits families splitting the difference on commutes.
Ames
Story County
Ames combines a university town's stability with acreage ground just outside the city limits.
Indianola
Warren County
Indianola offers Warren County acreage ground, Simpson College, and a genuine small-city downtown.
Carlisle
Warren County
Carlisle is a small town on the southeast edge of the metro with easy access to the east side and downtown.
Pleasant Hill
Polk County
Pleasant Hill gives you wooded east-side lots and quick access to the interstate and downtown.
Des Moines
Polk County
Building inside Des Moines means infill — established streets, mature trees, and a house that has to belong on its block.
Why a local builder is worth more than it sounds
Building is a local business dressed up as a national one. The plan can come from anywhere; the execution cannot. A builder who works only in Central Iowa knows which subdivisions run an architectural review, which soils need engineered footings, which inspector wants what and when, and which lots hold water in a wet April even though nothing on the plat says so.
It also means the trade partners on your house are people we will still be working with in five years — which is exactly why a warranty call gets returned.
