Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have questions about building your custom home? We have the answers you’re looking for. If you don’t see your question here, don’t hesitate to reach out—Urban is always here to help guide you through the custom home building process!
What is the Custom Home Building Process?
At Urban, the process starts in one of two ways: we'll either work with your completed plans for an estimate or guide you through professional services for lot due diligence.
As custom home builders in Pensacola, we offer comprehensive custom home design-build services, including surveying, wetland surveys, and construction drawings.
Collaborating with expert designers and architects, we align the design with your budget. Once preliminary plans are ready, we provide a cost estimate to ensure everything stays on track.
During construction, we'll provide access to your client portal. This serves as a seamless tool for communication, access to all of your project-related files, and regular updates.
How Much Does It Cost to Build a Custom House in Pensacola, Florida?
This is a tough question to answer because there are so many factors that go into designing and building a custom home. Typically, the average cost range for a custom home in Pensacola is from $500K to $2M. Yeah, it's a pretty big range. This is why it's so important to simply reach out to us to talk about what you're envisioning so we can narrow that range down for you.
How Long Does It Take to Build a Custom Home in Florida?
Much like talking numbers, the timeline to build a custom home in Florida can vary based on several factors.
To give you a rough idea of a timeline, a 2,500 square foot house could take up to around 18 months. Keep in mind that this includes 2-3 months for the design process and 1-2 months to finalize the estimation process.
How to Find the Best Custom Home Builder?
Doing some homework to create a short-list of potential Pensacola custom home builders will save you from scheduling endless consultations that could leave you disappointed.
Here's a step-by-step process we suggest:
- Check Out Portfolios: Starting out with finding a builder that suits your style will help you create your preliminary list to move on to the next step.
- Read Reviews: For each builder on your list, scour the internet for reviews. You'll want to read more reviews than you think necessary. This will help you find patterns in their reputation. Timeliness, staying within budgets, communication, professionalism, attention to detail, and top-notch craftsmanship are key factors that can be the difference between success or disaster for your project.
- Schedule Consultations: After you've whittled down your list to the top contenders, schedule consultations to talk about your project. Take note of their communication skills, how well they listen to your needs and ideas, and their professionalism. And don't forget to trust your gut. If you don't feel confident when you leave your meeting, that could be sign enough to cross them off your list.

Chris Vail is unlike many contractors that I've ever worked with, and as a real estate professional that has worked with him on a number of projects, his approach is refreshing and appreciated. He is attentive and conscientious of his clients' wants and needs, and will go to great lengths to accommodate them. He is communicative, and has implemented software tools to bring more transparency into the building process - simplifying the selection process for a custom build and allowing clients to see the progress even if they're living afar. I am proud of every Urban Infill project I've been involved in!

When we were ready to build our second home in Florida, we contacted Chris and Urban Infill. We had met with multiple companies but Chris seemed to best understand what we wanted for our home, so we chose Urban Infill.
Chris spent significant time speaking with us to understand our needs and help prepare us for the journey ahead. He provided excellent design suggestions and was patient with us while helping to select the best materials to achieve the outcome we desired. The team at Urban Infill was very friendly and exceeded our expectations throughout the process. Who knew building a home could be stress-free? Our new home was completed on time and is absolutely beautiful thanks to Chris and Urban Infill!

I first met Chris of Urban Infill at a charity event in 2016 when I was contemplating building a home from scratch. Meeting Chris turned out to be a huge blessing. I had a very specific idea of what I wanted and Chris helped me improve upon it. He gave me some amazing ideas that I hadn't considered, and suggested some changes to my original idea that ended up being 1000% better. His extensive knowledge and professionalism made it easy to choose his company to do the job. I would say that I would use Urban Infill again, except that I won’t need to!
