Yes. Horizon Building primarily serves all of Northern Virginia, including Fairfax County, Prince William County, Arlington, Alexandria, Vienna, VA, McLean, Falls Church, and Annandale. We also serve Montgomery County, Maryland, Loudon County, and rural areas around the DC Metro and Richmond areas on case-by-case basis.

Luxury custom homes in Northern Virginia typically range from $1.2 million to $5 million+, depending on location, size, and finishes. Whole-home remodels generally range from $400,000 to $2 million. Primary factors affecting your investment include site preparation requirements, architectural design complexity, material selections, and square footage.

Most custom home construction projects take 14-18 months from architectural design to move-in. This includes design development (2-4 months), permitting (2-3 months), and construction (10-12 months). Whole-home remodels typically require 6-12 months. Timeline factors include county permitting processes, site preparation needs, and material lead times.

Absolutely. Our experienced team knows every jurisdiction's requirements, reducing delays that plague projects managed by less knowledgeable builders. We schedule all inspections, address any concerns immediately, and ensure your home is built to meet or exceed all code requirements.
