How it works
Five steps from first call to final walkthrough
A custom project shouldn’t feel uncertain. Here’s exactly what to expect when you work with us.
The five steps
Initial Consultation
We learn your goals, budget, and timing.
Start with a call or our consultation request. We talk through what you want to build or change, the location, your budget range, how you plan to fund the project, and your ideal timing. The consultation is free.
Design & Planning
We shape the plans and selections with you.
We review your ideas or existing plans, including plans you’ve found online. We can draft the concept, then work with an engineer or architect for final stamped plans when your project needs them, and we work through selections together.
Estimate & Agreement
You get clear, written pricing.
Once the scope is defined, we prepare and review written pricing with you. Before any work begins, we agree on the scope, contract terms, and payment schedule, and confirm your financing is in place.
Permits & Build
We manage the work and keep you updated.
We take care of the permitting, line up experienced subcontractors for each phase, and manage the schedule and quality as construction moves forward. You hear from us directly with updates along the way.
Final Walkthrough
We review the finished project together.
We walk the finished project with you, note anything that needs attention, and wrap up the final details. Your project is backed by our 1-year warranty.
How do I get started?
Request a free consultation online or call us at (208) 919-8174. We respond within 2 business days. Once we connect, you can email us any plans, photos, or inspiration you have.
Who performs the construction?
We’re owner-operated: Katelyn and Bradan personally manage every project and are your direct point of contact. We hire experienced subcontractors for each trade, so every phase is handled by specialists and keeps moving, while we manage the schedule, quality, and communication.
Do I need finished plans?
No. Many projects start with an idea and a few photos, and plans you’ve found online are welcome too. We can draft the concept, then work with an engineer or architect for final stamped plans when your project needs them.
Are you licensed and insured?
Yes. Brothers Kustom Build & Design holds Idaho License #3681006 and is insured.
Do you handle permits?
Yes. We make sure all permitting is taken care of for your project.
Do you offer a warranty?
Yes. We stand behind our work with a 1-year warranty.
How much will my project cost?
Pricing depends on scope, design, materials, and site conditions, so we don’t guess. We talk about budget early, and once the scope is clear you get written pricing before any work begins.
How long will the work take?
Timing depends on the size of the project, design decisions, permitting, and material lead times. We talk through an expected schedule as planning moves forward.
Do you offer financing?
Clients arrange their own financing, such as a construction loan or home equity loan. We talk about how you plan to fund the project at the first consultation and confirm it’s in place before we agree on a contract.
Can you help with design only?
Yes. Our interior design and design consultation services work on their own, whether you’re planning ahead or just want a room to feel finished.
Where do you work?
We’re based in Nampa and serve Nampa, Boise, Meridian, Caldwell, Kuna, Eagle, Star, Middleton, Mountain Home, Wilder, Marsing, Homedale, and surrounding areas. Not sure if you’re in our area? Just ask.
