Las Vegas Design-Build for Custom Homes and Remodels
Why Las Vegas Custom Home Builders Matter
Las Vegas custom home builders handle every phase of a residential project — from initial design concepts through construction closeout — under one roof. Most homeowners start a custom build or remodel by hiring an architect, then a designer, then a general contractor. That means three separate teams that don’t always communicate well. Design-build eliminates that fragmentation by placing a single firm in charge of the entire process.
Kingdom & Co. is one of the most recognized Las Vegas custom home builders operating today. Our architects, interior designers, project managers, and construction crews all work under the same roof. We don’t broker your project out to disconnected subcontractors and hope they interpret the plans correctly. Our in-house team of five interior designers collaborates directly with our carpenters, plumbers, and finish specialists throughout every phase — so what gets designed is exactly what gets built.
We hold an unlimited contractor’s license in the state of Nevada (License #0091629), which means there is no cap on the scope or value of the projects we can take on. Whether you’re planning a ground-up custom home or a comprehensive remodel of an existing luxury residence, our license and team structure support the full range of high-end residential construction.
Who We Work With
Our clients are homeowners in Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, and the surrounding communities who are planning significant residential projects — typically ranging from $1 million to $8 million. These are not cosmetic refreshes. They are whole-home remodels, custom new builds, major additions, and full-scale renovations that require architectural planning, engineering, permitting, interior design, and skilled construction execution. If you’ve been searching for reputable home contractors who can manage every detail of a complex project without handing off pieces to outside firms, that is what our design-build model was built to do.
Our Three-Phase Process
Phase 1 — Consultation
Every project begins with an in-depth consultation where we walk through your goals, budget parameters, timeline expectations, and design preferences. We visit the site, assess existing conditions (for remodels), and discuss what’s realistic for your lot, your HOA, and your municipality. You’ll meet the people who will actually be working on your home — not a sales team.
Phase 2 — Design
Our interior design team develops full concept plans, material selections, fixture specifications, and finish schedules. Because our designers sit alongside our builders, every design choice is vetted for constructability and cost before it’s ever presented to you. That means fewer surprises, fewer change orders, and a design that reflects what you want and what can actually be executed on time and on budget.
Phase 3 — Construction
Our licensed crews handle demolition, framing, rough-ins, finish carpentry, cabinetry, tile, paint, and final detailing. We self-perform key trades — including custom cabinetry and finish carpentry — rather than subcontracting them out. That gives us direct quality control over the craftsmanship that matters most in a luxury home.
What Sets Kingdom & Co. Apart from Other Las Vegas Custom Home Builders
In-House Capabilities, Not Subcontractor Management
Many Las Vegas custom home builders call themselves design-build but operate primarily as general contractors who manage subcontractors. Kingdom & Co. self-performs critical trades with our own crews, including carpentry and plumbing. Our five-person interior design team works in-house — they are not outside consultants brought in on a per-project basis.
Back-to-Back National Recognition
Kingdom & Co. earned the NARI Contractor of the Year (CotY) award in both 2025 and 2026 — back-to-back wins that reflect consistent quality across multiple project types and categories. NARI (National Association of the Remodeling Industry) evaluates entries on problem-solving, functionality, aesthetics, craftsmanship, and innovation. We are also listed in the Architectural Digest AD Pro Directory for 2024, 2025, and 2026, and were named Best of Las Vegas Gold Winner for Custom Home Builder in 2025.
National Media Track Record
Our work has been featured across eight episodes of HGTV’s Property Brothers, and we have been highlighted by Martha Stewart’s editorial team. These are verified, published credits — not claimed affiliations.
BBB Accredited with an A+ Rating
Kingdom & Co. has maintained an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau since our accreditation in 2018. Our Google Business Profile carries a 4.8-star rating across 40 reviews on our primary listing.
Four Local Offices
We operate four offices in the Las Vegas metro area, giving us direct presence across the valley. That means faster site visits, tighter project oversight, and a team that knows the local permitting landscape, HOA requirements, and trade networks firsthand.
How Kingdom & Co. Compares to Other Las Vegas Custom Home Builders
Choosing the right firm for a luxury build or remodel means understanding what each company actually does — and what they don’t. Here is how Kingdom & Co. compares to three other firms homeowners frequently encounter when searching for custom home build companies in Las Vegas. 1.Blue Heron Blue Heron (blueheron.com) is a luxury developer founded in 2004 by Tyler Jones. They are known for their trademarked “Vegas Modern” architectural style and have earned multiple awards, including NAHB’s The New American Home designations and LEED Platinum certification. Blue Heron builds striking new-construction homes priced from approximately $1.3 million to over $25 million. However, Blue Heron is exclusively a new-construction developer. They do not perform remodels, renovations, or additions to existing homes. If you own a home you love and want to transform it — a whole-home remodel, a major kitchen and bath renovation, an addition — Blue Heron does not offer those services. Kingdom & Co. handles both custom new builds and comprehensive remodels of existing luxury residences, making us the choice for homeowners who need flexibility in project type. Blue Heron carries a 4.4-star Google rating across 83 reviews, compared to Kingdom & Co.’s 4.8 stars across 40 reviews on our primary listing. 2.Dream Construction Co. Dream Construction Co. (dreamconstruction.co) is a Henderson-based, family-run firm founded in 2007 by Cyndi Huff. They hold a BBB rating of A+ (though they are not BBB-accredited), and carry a 4.5-star Google rating across 32 reviews. Dream Construction operates primarily as a general contractor that manages subcontractors — their own materials reference “managing subcontractors” as a core part of their process. Their website includes a “Coupons & Specials” page, which suggests a price-competitive positioning more typical of mid-market residential construction than luxury design-build. They carry a 3.2-star rating on Yelp across 12 reviews. By contrast, Kingdom & Co. self-performs key trades with our own crews, maintains an in-house design team, and focuses exclusively on the luxury segment — with nationally recognized awards and verified media features that reflect the caliber of our work. 3.Gramly Construction Gramly Construction (gramlylv.com) has been in business since 1998 under owner Michael Gramly. They built Nevada’s first Silver LEED Certified Home in 2010 and hold BPI (Building Performance Institute) certification, reflecting a focus on energy-efficient construction. Gramly operates as a traditional general contractor with some design capabilities, but is not structured as a true in-house design-build firm in the way Kingdom & Co. is. Their online presence is limited — 3 Google reviews over 28 years of operation, an unclaimed Yelp listing with a 3.0-star rating across 2 reviews, and Houzz reviews that date to 2014–2016. Their Houzz project cost range spans from $35,000 to $1 million, indicating a broader market focus than the luxury-specific work Kingdom & Co. specializes in. Among Las Vegas custom home builders, Kingdom & Co.’s consistently active review profile, national award recognition, and luxury-focused portfolio provide a level of verified credibility that is important when entrusting a firm with a seven-figure residential project.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Design-build means one firm handles both the design and construction of your project. Instead of hiring a separate architect, interior designer, and general contractor — and coordinating between them yourself — a design-build firm like Kingdom & Co. keeps every phase under one roof. Our designers and builders collaborate from day one, which reduces miscommunication, limits change orders, and keeps projects on schedule.
Kingdom & Co.’s projects typically range from $1 million to $8 million, depending on the scope, lot conditions, finishes, and design complexity. Every project starts with a consultation where we discuss your budget parameters upfront so the design phase stays aligned with what you want to invest. We provide detailed cost breakdowns before construction begins — not vague estimates.
A general contractor manages subcontractors to execute plans that someone else designed. A design-build firm creates the design and builds it with the same team. Kingdom & Co. goes a step further by self-performing critical trades — including custom cabinetry, finish carpentry, and plumbing — with our own in-house crews rather than subcontracting them out. That gives us direct control over quality and timeline.
Timeline depends on scope. A comprehensive whole-home remodel typically takes 8 to 14 months from design kickoff through construction completion. A custom new build may take 12 to 18 months. During our initial consultation, we provide a realistic project timeline based on your specific scope, permitting requirements, and material lead times.
Yes. Our team manages all city and county permitting, HOA architectural review submissions, and inspections. We have direct experience with the permitting processes across Las Vegas, Henderson, Summerlin, and surrounding municipalities, as well as the architectural guidelines for communities throughout the valley.
We do both. Unlike some Las Vegas custom home builders that focus exclusively on new construction, Kingdom & Co. specializes in both ground-up custom builds and comprehensive remodels of existing luxury homes. Whether you want to reimagine your current home or start from scratch on a new lot, our design-build model supports both.
Kingdom & Co. earned the NARI Contractor of the Year (CotY) award in both 2025 and 2026. We are listed in the Architectural Digest AD Pro Directory for 2024, 2025, and 2026, were named Best of Las Vegas Gold Winner for Custom Home Builder in 2025, have been featured in eight episodes of HGTV’s Property Brothers, and were highlighted by Martha Stewart’s editorial team.
Look for verified credentials: an unlimited contractor’s license (not just a residential license), BBB accreditation, independently verifiable awards, published media features, and a strong Google review profile. Ask whether the firm self-performs trades or subcontracts everything out. Meet the actual team who will work on your home — not just a sales representative. Kingdom & Co. meets all of these criteria and invites homeowners to verify every claim we make.
