Our custom design process starts by getting to know you, your goals, and the inspiration behind your structure so we can help guide you in the right direction for your project. While many clients choose to build off one of our pre-engineered building models, we can also take any images, sketches, or sample floor plans you may have for your design and use them to form a 3D model that’s representative of your style and taste. With our virtual reality software, our clients can explore their 3D models in real-time and make changes as needed or desired to their structural elements. This industry-leading technology is designed to give our clients a dynamic look at their interior and exterior space so they can feel 100% confident in their final design. Once your custom design is complete, our team can start building a custom materials package quote for you. With your approval, we’ll get to work creating a pre-engineered building package that brings your one-of-a-kind structure to life.

Prefabrication is a standard offering included in the price of our custom building kits. Unique to our industry, our prefabrication process sees that every piece of framing lumber used to create your exterior walls, roof, and floor components is expertly pre-cut, drilled, and individually labeled before arriving on your job site. How it works is once your design plans have been modeled in our design software, our craftsmen can translate your design into detailed instructions that are then fed into our specialized CNC woodworking machine. Our machine will then pre-cut, drill, and label your wood framing components to precision, with our craftsmen preparing all finished pieces for safe shipment. Our prefabrication method is so efficient that are projects often take 30% – 50% fewer framing hours than conventionally built structures. As a result, our clients can save a significant amount of time and money during installation.

We partner with America’s top-rated suppliers of windows, doors, siding, and more to provide clients with premium material selections for their builds.

With hundreds of selections to choose from and thousands of possible configurations for your project, you’re guaranteed to love your custom structure from DC.

Located in the heart of the Pacific Northwest, DC Structures offers exclusive access to some of the region’s best timber exports for every project, including select grade Douglas fir and Western red cedar. However, if you’re looking for something different than our signature heavy timber method, we offer several unique framing options to help you achieve your desired look for your building. For example, we recently designed an equestrian facility in Sonoma, California made primarily with cross-laminated timbers, or eco-friendly, multi-layer mass timber panels. No matter your preference, we’ll work with you to determine the best materials for your project while factoring in your budget and needs.

Building a custom home can feel a bit daunting if you’re unfamiliar with the process.

Our entire custom design and kit process is set up to make your experience as streamlined and enjoyable as possible, from the moment you sign on to a building package to the day your kit is shipped. Regardless of the complexities of your build, our team will work closely with you to ensure your project feels completely manageable at every stage and you’re aware of any nuances associated with the custom home building process. Whether you’re planning to modify an existing building model or design a custom home from scratch, you can trust our team to deliver a structure and experience that meets your needs and so much more.
