How Much Does It Cost to Build a Custom Home in Utah?
Every home, lot, and family is different—so there’s no single price for building a new home. But recent Utah data gives a realistic range you can expect.
Many new homes in Utah fall roughly between $150 and $300 per square foot, with more customized, higher-end homes often ranging from about $280 up to $600+ per square foot, depending on size, design complexity, and finishes.
Instead of forcing your plans into a fixed package, we price your home based on what you actually want and need. The biggest cost drivers are:
Size and layout – Total square footage, number of stories, and how open the floor plan is.
Foundation and site conditions – Slopes, soil conditions, access, and engineering needs on your lot.
Finish level – Flooring, cabinetry, countertops, windows, appliances, and trim details.
Special spaces – Home offices, gyms, bonus rooms, theater rooms, or extra garages.
During the planning phase, we’ll talk honestly about budget ranges for homes like the one you’re envisioning. Then we’ll show you how different choices impact the bottom line so you can stay in control of your investment.

Typical Timeline for Building a Custom Home in Utah
Every project is different, but most custom homes we build fall somewhere around 10–18 months from first meeting to move-in. Here’s how that usually breaks down:
Planning & Pre-Design – 2–4 weeks (about 0.5–1 month)
We learn about your goals, review your lot, talk through budget, and outline a realistic path forward.
Design, Pricing & Selections – 6–16 weeks (about 1.5–4 months)
We refine your floor plan and elevations, work through structural details, and help you make key finish selections. At the same time, we’re pricing the home and aligning everything with your budget and priorities.
Permits & Approvals – 4–12 weeks (about 1–3 months)
We submit your plans to the city or county, answer any questions they have, and secure the approvals needed to begin construction. Timing here depends heavily on the local jurisdiction and their workload.
Construction – 6–12 months
Site work, foundation, framing, mechanical systems, insulation, drywall, and finishes all come together during this phase. Throughout construction, you’ll get regular updates, photos, and walkthroughs so you always know what’s happening.

What Utah Homeowners Say About Us
Frequently Asked Questions
-
You’re involved in the decisions that matter—layout, finishes, and how your home will function day-to-day.
We handle the technical side: permits, inspections, scheduling trades, and day-to-day site coordination. You stay informed and in control of key choices without having to manage the build yourself.
-
No. If you already own land, great—we’ll review it with you. If you’re still looking, we can talk about what to watch for (slope, access, utilities, setbacks, etc.) so you know which lots are a good fit for the type of home you want to build.
-
On paper, a true custom home builder often costs more per square foot than a high-volume or “cookie-cutter” builder—because you’re not buying a stripped-down base model.
But “more expensive” doesn’t always mean worse value. With a custom build, you get:
A layout that actually fits your family (not wasted or unusable space)
Better control over where you upgrade and where you save
Fewer compromises that lead to regret and future remodeling costs
Our job is to help you match the design and finish level to a budget you’re comfortable with, so the home feels worth what you’re investing.
-
Most of the time, yes, it’s cheaper overall to hire a professional builder than to try to manage a full home build on your own.
A good builder:
Knows how to prevent costly mistakes and rework
Keeps the schedule moving so you’re not paying for long delays
Gets better pricing and coordination with trusted trades and suppliers
Catches issues early—before they become expensive problems
You might save a little on paper by trying to run the project yourself, but many people end up spending more in the long run in change orders, delays, and fixes. A builder’s experience is there to protect your time, money, and sanity.
