How to
Our Step-by-Step Guide to Custom Home Building
At Conroy Custom Homes, we build to suit not only your needs and preferences, but your lifestyle and goals too. We keep our process stress-free and fun by focusing on you and following these tried-and-true steps for success:
Consultation
The first step is to get to know you and the goals you have for your new home. Every job is unique, so the more information we have at this stage, the better. This initial meeting helps us tailor our approach and determines if we are going to be a good fit for your project.
Construction
Once plans are in place, the fun part begins. Building is the stage where all the planning and decisions come together. Here you will see the vision from the 2D plans become a 3D building you can touch.
Planning
Based on the initial meeting, we will then create a plan. If you’re in the early stages, the plan may start with the search for land. Having a builder available to see hidden potential in a specific property (or hidden costs) is a benefit we’re happy to offer our clients. If you already have land, our plan will likely start with pricing out your project.
No matter what stage, our team will meet you where you’re at.

Answers
Frequently Asked Questions
How Will You Help Plan My Custom Build?
First and foremost, by getting to know you. We will learn how you live and what your goals are for your home. The must-haves, nice-to-haves, and rather-not-haves are all discussed so that we can tailor the design based on your needs and wants. Our team then works step-by-step to put all the pieces together until we’re ready to build.
Conroy Custom Homes is a team that answers questions and solves problems. If we don’t know the answer, we’ll be sure to find it for you. Whatever stage you are at, we’re here to help you cross the finish line.
How Much Will My Custom Build Cost?
This is the big question. We think of it like asking how much a bag of groceries costs. It depends on how big the bag is and what you fill it with. Every project is different. Every client is different. This is one of the reasons we take the time to learn what you’re looking for in your new home.
Some factors that impact price include square footage, number of rooms, kitchen specifications, and garage style. Based on those details, as well as your needs, wants, and features you are indifferent about, a price is then determined.

How Long Will My Custom Build Take?
Timelines for our projects vary according to their size and complexity. Conroy Custom Homes leverages relationships with local contractors and suppliers whenever possible to reduce our lead time on building projects. Typically, it takes about 1.5 – 2 years from design concept to move in. When you hire us to build your custom home, you’ll receive an estimated timeline at the start of the process, and we’ll be sure to keep you updated if anything changes.
Can You Help Find a Site for My New Build?
Absolutely. It is very beneficial to have a homebuilder involved in selecting a lot. We can help point out anything from hidden construction costs to limiting or potential design considerations. We even have on staff realtors to help with the search.
Can You Build on My Lot?
Yes. Conroy Custom Homes can help you plan and build the ideal custom home on a lot you already own. You bring the property—we bring the craftsmanship, flexibility, attention to detail, and respect for your budget.
Do You Build Additions on Existing Homes?
You bet. Although part of an existing house, this process is very similar to building a new home. Conroy Custom Homes can help expand the home you already love—lofts, garages, and brand-new wings are just some of the additions we’re used to creating for Calgary clients.
