Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? See if we can answer them below.

What happens during the first meeting? Is there a consultation fee?

Your first meeting is complimentary and pressure-free. We'll discuss your vision, lifestyle needs, timeline expectations, and budget. We'll review relevant projects from our portfolio, explain our design/build process in detail, and answer every question you have. If your project involves a specific site (either land you own or are considering), we can evaluate it for feasibility.

Do you handle all permits and work with county inspectors?

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.

What areas do you serve? Do you build in Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and Arlington?

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.

How long does it take to build a custom home in Virginia?

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.

How much does a custom home cost in Northern Virginia?

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.

What makes Horizon different from other custom home builders in Northern Virginia?

Horizon Building offers true design/build integration. We manage your entire home-building process under one contract. Our team partners with you to provide architectural design, permitting, and construction management - all through a single experienced team. Our reputation in Fairfax County, Loudoun County, and Arlington is a testament to our commitment to exceptional customer service and customer satisfaction.
