A single house showcases more than square footage and floor plans. It reflects how you live, how you entertain, and how you retreat from the world at the end of each day. Our approach to single house construction in Houston begins with listening. We sit down with each client to discuss their vision, their daily routines, and their long-term goals for their home.
From that foundation, we develop architectural concepts that respond to your specific site conditions, neighborhood context, and personal aesthetic. Our design team considers natural light, traffic flow between rooms, outdoor connections, and the small details that make a house feel like yours. Every single house we build in Bellaire carries the fingerprint of its owner.
We work with clients who appreciate thoughtful architecture and expect their home to function as well as it photographs. This means careful attention to ceiling heights, window placement, material selection, and the relationship between interior spaces and exterior landscapes.

Construction quality determines if a home ages gracefully or requires constant attention. As a custom home builder in Bellaire, we select materials and methods that stand up to the Houston climate while delivering lasting visual appeal.
Our framing crews work with precision. Our finish carpenters take pride in tight joints and clean lines. We partner with trusted subcontractors who share our commitment to excellence, from foundation work through final paint touch-ups.
Luxury single house design demands more than surface-level finishes. We focus on what happens behind the walls: proper insulation, quality electrical work, plumbing that performs for decades, and HVAC systems sized correctly for each home. These unseen elements determine comfort, energy efficiency, and long-term value.
We conduct regular site visits throughout construction. Our project managers maintain open communication with clients, providing updates and addressing questions as they arise. You will never wonder what is happening at your job site.
Residential home builders near Bellaire vary widely in capability and commitment. Clients choose our firm because we deliver what we promise, on the timeline we establish, at the budget we agree upon.
Our reputation rests on completed projects throughout Bellaire and Greater Houston. We invite prospective clients to visit homes we have built, speak with past customers, and review our portfolio in detail. Transparency guides every conversation.
We hold proper licensing and insurance. We maintain strong relationships with local suppliers and building officials. We understand the permitting process in Bellaire and surrounding municipalities, which helps projects move forward without unnecessary delays.
Single house construction requires coordination across dozens of trades and hundreds of decisions. Our experience allows us to anticipate challenges before they become problems. We guide clients through selections and specifications without overwhelming them with options or pressuring them toward particular products.


Every project follows a structured process that keeps design and construction aligned from concept through completion.
01
We meet to discuss your goals, preferred architectural style, budget parameters, and timeline expectations. This conversation establishes if we are the right fit for your project.
02
Working with architects and designers, we develop floor plans, exterior elevations, and preliminary specifications. Clients review drawings and provide feedback until the design meets their expectations.
03
We prepare detailed cost estimates based on final design documents. Our contracts clearly outline scope, schedule, allowances, and payment terms. No surprises after construction begins.
04
We submit plans to local authorities and manage the approval process. Our familiarity with Bellaire building codes helps expedite reviews.
04
Building begins with site preparation and foundation work. We maintain a clean, organized job site and communicate progress regularly. Clients receive scheduled updates and have direct access to our project management team.
04
Before closing, we walk through your completed single house together. We address any items requiring attention and ensure everything meets our standards and yours.

Our work extends throughout the Houston metropolitan area, with particular concentration in Bellaire and nearby communities including West University Place, River Oaks, Tanglewood, Memorial, and the Heights. We understand the architectural character of these neighborhoods and design homes that contribute positively to their streets.
Custom single homes in this region must account for local soil conditions, drainage requirements, and climate considerations. We build homes that perform well through Houston summers and handle heavy rainfall events without concern.
Location also influences lifestyle. We design homes that connect to their surroundings, whether that means a front porch oriented toward a tree-lined street or a rear courtyard designed for privacy and outdoor living.

Building a single house is a significant decision. The right builder makes the process rewarding rather than stressful. We welcome the opportunity to discuss your project, answer your questions, and share examples of our completed work.
Contact our Bellaire office to schedule a consultation. We look forward to learning about your vision and exploring how we can bring it to life.

EXCELLENT Based on 27 reviews Posted on Adam MincbergTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Working with Marvin and Blum Custom Builders was the right choice for my family, myself and my home. Marvin and his team carefully guided us through a large home renovation project where clear guidance and track record were important. It turned out amazing and the results were more impressive than I envisioned going into the project. Can’t say enough good things and would highly recommend Blum Custom Builders to anyone looking to do something similar. They will treat you like family and ensure a happy client.Posted on Cathey NickellTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Marvin Blum saved my property! I was building a backyard cabana project with a different company, and that first contractor stopped showing up. I discovered Blum Custom Builders through a Facebook group referral, and he RESCUED my project. After months of no work from previous company, Marvin swooped in and had my cabana perfectly completed in two weeks. I could not be happier and have already referred him to two of my friends. I wish I had known to hire Marvin from the very start, before he had to rescue my cabana, but at least I know him now, and he’s my contractor going forward.Posted on Hillary RatliffTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
