What is a Doubet Home?

Doubet custom homes are each unique and special. Before the first shovel breaks ground, there will be a builders meeting. In this meeting a workable plan is established. Scott Doubet will learn what's important to you and what key components you want. Needed modifications are made to the plan, and a budget is established. This insures that budget and timelines are met. Budget increases will only happen if there are changes in the scope of work requested by the homeowners during construction.

There is a common checklist we use for design specification on each home. This list specifies the "typical" elements we will use in that home. You should look on this as a work-sheet and as a starting point for creating your custom home.
