Louisville Custom Home Building | PL Lyons Architectural Builders
Building Custom Dream Homes Since 1974
Our Process
P.L. Lyons Architectural Builders has a proprietary process we use with every client. Our process has proven to provide the most transparent and efficient home-building experience. When building a custom home or working on a remodel, each project is completely different. Since we are not a large volume home builder and don’t typically build stock plans, the details are essential.
Step 1: Design
Through our partnership with Ben Robbins and Robbins Architecture, we have an in-house architect who works with clients to design and create custom house plans. Whether you have existing plans that need to be modified or are working from scratch, our architect can bring your thoughts and ideas to life. Learn more about our architectural design services.

Step 2: Pre-Construction
Our advanced estimating system allows us to pinpoint costs and show customers how changes before and during the construction process can alter the price in a good or bad way. Each client typically gets a contract, a set of specifications, and a cost analysis.
