🏠 The Custom Build Process:
- Initial Consultation & Visioning: Our process begins with you. We’ll sit down to listen and learn about your vision, your family’s needs, your lifestyle, and your unique design preferences. This is where we lay the foundation for a home that’s truly yours, ensuring every detail aligns with your dreams from the very start.
- Design & Planning: Once we have a clear understanding of your vision, we collaborate with our trusted architects and designers to bring it to life. We work hand-in-hand to create a custom floor plan that maximizes both beauty and function, guiding you through the selection of every material to ensure it meets our high standards for quality and durability.
- Construction & Project Management: This is where the physical transformation begins. Our team of skilled tradespeople, known for their craftsmanship and attention to detail, builds your home with precision. A dedicated GRIT Project Manager will be your single point of contact, ensuring the process runs smoothly, on schedule, and on budget. We believe in complete transparency, keeping you informed at every stage of the build.
- Final Walkthrough & Move-in: The final phase is the most rewarding. We’ll walk through your new home with you, conducting a thorough final inspection to ensure every detail is perfect. Once you’re completely satisfied, we’ll hand over the keys and officially welcome you home.

🤝 Meet The Builder
Hi there, I’m Chelsea Thompson, and I believe your home should be a perfect reflection of you. My journey as a residential and roofing contractor started with a personal passion—the remodel of my own home in 2016. That experience taught me the power of a well-designed space, and ever since, I’ve been dedicated to helping others create homes that fit their unique lifestyles.
I approach every project with a blend of creativity, meticulous attention to detail, and a deep respect for quality craftsmanship. My educational background—a bachelor’s from the University of Florida and a master’s from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University—gives me a strong foundation in both design principles and efficient project management.
When I’m not busy bringing someone’s vision to life, you can find me recharging in nature and on the water, which constantly inspires my design work. Thank you for visiting, and I look forward to the possibility of building your dream home with you.
