The Projects Other Contractors Walk Away From? That's Our Specialty.

Unique builds that others won't touch. Complex layouts, structural challenges, tight timelines — we thrive on the work that requires real problem-solving and serious craftsmanship.

Tired of Hearing "We Can't Do That"?

You've got a project in mind — but it's not straightforward. Maybe it's a structural challenge. Maybe the design is unusual. Maybe you've called three contractors and none of them wanted to take it on.

We get calls like that all the time. And honestly? Those are the projects we love most. The ones that require creative problem-solving, experienced hands, and a crew that doesn't back down when things get complicated. If someone else told you it can't be done, give us a call before you shelve the idea.

Custom Projects We Take On

From the unusual to the intricate, we have the expertise and creativity to bring your vision to life.

Complex Additions

Challenging site conditions, difficult lot configurations, and structural constraints don't stop us. We find solutions that expand your space without compromising your home.

Wine Cellars & Entertainment Spaces

Temperature-controlled wine storage, home theaters, game rooms, and entertainment spaces designed for the way you want to live and host.

Multi-Generational Conversions

Why Mohr

Why We Excel at Custom Work

Problem Solvers at Heart

Where other contractors see obstacles, we see opportunities to showcase our expertise. Complex projects require creative thinking and adaptability—qualities our team has developed through years of tackling unusual builds. We genuinely enjoy the puzzle of figuring out how to make challenging projects work.

Communication That Matches Complexity

Custom projects require even more communication than standard remodels. You'll get regular updates, and we'll involve you in decisions where your input matters. No surprises. No "we figured you'd be okay with this." Every step of your unique project is a collaboration.

20+ Years of Tackling the Difficult

Our experience isn't just measured in years—it's measured in the variety of challenges we've overcome. Historic homes with hidden structural issues. Additions on properties others said couldn't be built on. Specialized spaces requiring unique materials and techniques. We've seen it, solved it, and delivered beautiful results.

Built Entirely on Referrals

We've never run ads. Every project we take on comes from word-of-mouth referrals from satisfied clients. This is especially true for our custom work—clients who've had a great experience trust us with their most unusual requests, and they tell their friends who have similar challenges.

Our Process

How a Custom Project Works

Deep-Dive Discovery

Custom projects start with understanding exactly what you're trying to achieve and why. We'll discuss your vision, the challenges you've encountered with other contractors, and what success looks like for you. This conversation helps us determine the best approach and whether we're the right fit.

Feasibility & Creative Solutions

We assess the technical requirements, structural considerations, and potential obstacles. Then we develop creative solutions that achieve your goals while staying within practical constraints. You'll understand exactly what's possible and how we'll get there.

Detailed Design & Planning

Once we've identified the solution, we develop comprehensive plans, coordinate with any specialized trades or consultants, and create a detailed scope. For unique projects, this phase often involves research into specialized materials, techniques, or requirements specific to your build.

Precision Construction

Custom work demands attention to detail. Our team executes the plan with meticulous care, adapting as needed when we encounter the unexpected—which is common in unique projects. Steady communication keeps you informed and involved throughout the build.

Walkthrough & Handoff

We walk through every detail together, explaining any specialized features or maintenance requirements unique to your project. Custom work often has specific care instructions, and we make sure you understand how to enjoy and maintain your new space for years to come.

Investment & Timeline

What does a custom project cost?

Every custom project is truly unique, which means investment varies significantly based on scope, complexity, and specialized requirements. A historic restoration has different cost factors than a custom wine cellar or home studio. During our discovery conversation, we'll discuss your vision and provide honest guidance on what investment range to expect for your specific project.

How long does a custom project take?

Timeline varies by project scope and complexity. Some custom spaces can be completed in a few weeks, while historic restorations or complex additions may take several months. We'll provide a detailed schedule once we understand your specific project requirements, and we keep you updated on progress.

Why invest in custom work?

Standard solutions don't fit every need. Whether you're preserving a historic home's character, creating a specialized workspace, or building something truly unique, custom projects let you have exactly what you envision—not a compromise. Our clients consistently find that the investment in getting it right pays dividends in daily satisfaction and long-term value.

Frequently Asked Questions

Custom projects typically involve specialized requirements, unusual structural challenges, historic preservation considerations, or unique spaces that don't fit standard remodeling categories. If other contractors have said no because it's "too complicated" or "not what they do," it's likely a custom project—and exactly what we specialize in.

Absolutely. Many custom projects benefit from architectural expertise, especially historic restorations or complex additions. We collaborate seamlessly with architects and designers you bring to the project, or we can recommend professionals we've worked with successfully on similar builds.

We have experience working within historic preservation guidelines and can navigate the requirements while still achieving your goals. This includes sourcing period-appropriate materials, using techniques that respect original craftsmanship, and coordinating with preservation boards when necessary. Our goal is honoring the home's history while making it work for modern life.

Unexpected discoveries are more common in custom work, especially with older homes. When we encounter something unforeseen, we communicate immediately, explain what we've found, and present options with our recommendation. We never proceed without your input on significant decisions, and we're experienced at finding creative solutions that address issues without derailing the project.

Yes. Over 20+ years of custom work, we've developed relationships with specialty suppliers, salvage sources, and craftspeople who can provide unique materials. Whether you need reclaimed period hardware, custom millwork, or specialized acoustic materials, we know where to find quality products and skilled artisans.

Just reach out. Tell us about your vision, the challenges you've encountered, and what you're hoping to achieve. We love hearing about unique projects and discussing possibilities. Even if you're not sure exactly what you want, a conversation can help clarify the path forward. There's no obligation—we're happy to explore whether your project is something we can help with.
