Homes have projects.

Homes are projects.

renovating. building.

When we’re working on constructing your idea, we’re at home. It’s what we love to do, and it’s why we’re here. To us, being a General Contractor is more like curating. Building something exceptional often involves challenging sites, complex assemblies, and obscure materials; a detailed team is needed to build those into something real and durable.

  • Whether it begins with your idea, or you are looking for ideas, tap into our network of designers and architects to capture a vision of your new space.

  • Earthwork or Demolition, each project begins taking shape differently. Let us curate the components and hand-built details into something real and durable.

  • Only you can transition a fresh space into a home. Allow us to prepare you to care for it and provide assistance to keep the home going strong for years to come.

craftsmanship.

Details define craftsmanship, we’re obsessed with details. We seek the opportunity to form Built Environments into enduring structures, rather than disposable commodities. Crafting an environment is a balance of the expertly hand-built elements, design collaboration, and guiding a project from an idea into a house … that you make a home.

collaboration.

Surveyors, Designers, Masons, Carpenters, Architects, Furniture makers … and you. Having the right people involved is key to our client-focused approach.

Your home will require a considerable group of people, regardless of the size of the project. Assembling the group that’s right for you is the first step, but collaboration is what makes that group an effective team. The labor of this team on-site and supporting in the background to captivate your vision is a rewarding experience for us, we want that for you.

service.

Building a house that someone makes into a home is more than its pieces, parts, and specifications. Building is a service.

To build it well, a commitment to the process and the people involved is imperative. Let’s commit to stewardship of everyone’s resources during the project… and after.

Our client-driven process creates a unique building experience for you, leveraging our expertise into tools that equip your decisions.

  • Michigan’s many water resources have much to offer all of us. At Principle Homes, navigating the Critical Dunes, EGLE, and other restrictions is just another part of our process. Our Feasibility Studies are designed to evaluate the needs of your project.

  • The technical aspects of a home are crucial to the performance the structure as a system. We have been asked to repair other failed structures and systems for years; that experience has polished our methods and driven us to continue studying how to improve our own projects. Together with great architects and engineers, homes are capable of being more than depreciating structures.

  • Each project and vision requires dexterity in what products are used. Time-tested work has reinforced our process in recommending the best materials for your home and budget. Attending to the impact of those materials is just as important to you and your family’s health. We’ll make our recommendations, and can detail out why it’s best for you.

  • Development of a project is as important to us as the execution. We believe taking the time to establish the details upfront is imperative, because experience tells us that it saves time, money, and other resources throughout the term of the project.
