Custom Homes & New Build Services
At Cactus Valley Homes, we specialize in custom homes that are the right blend of luxury, innovation, and personalization, tailored to the way you actually live. As the leading custom home builder and new build company in Phoenix, we have proudly served this community for forty-five years. Our commitment to it shows in the homes: each one a quiet, load-bearing argument for quality, service, and attention to detail.
We are an award-winning, locally owned and operated business, and we take our reputation personally. Our experienced professionals provide the highest level of service from the first consultation to the final walk-through. We know that building a new home is a significant investment, financially and emotionally. A custom home is the largest thing most people will ever buy that does not yet exist. We make sure the experience is positive, rewarding, and, on the days it counts, uneventful.

- One contract, one schedule, one number to call at 7 a.m.
- Design, engineering, permits, construction, and warranty under the same roof.
- Written quotes that hold. Our clients say so, in writing, on the testimonials page.
- A lot survey and soils test included with your build contract, up to a $3,000 credit. See the offer.

Questions We Hear Often
Straight answers.
Do you build on my lot or yours?
Yours. Cactus Valley Homes builds custom homes on land you own or are acquiring anywhere in the Phoenix metro area. If you are still looking for a lot, we are glad to evaluate candidates with you before you buy.
Can you help with design and architecture?
Yes. Our pre-design services include architectural selection, design selection, conceptual concepts, and planning support, and our engineering phase covers plans, permit approval assistance, and construction documents. You get one team from the first sketch through move-in.
What is included in the free lot survey and soils test offer?
When you contract with Cactus Valley Homes to design and build your new home, we include a lot survey and soils test, up to a $3,000 credit applied to your build costs. The credit applies only to the survey and soils test and only if we are contracted to design and build the home. If the contract is terminated, the fees become due and payable.
How involved will I be during construction?
As involved as you like. Clients receive regular progress updates and photographs, and every project has onsite supervision from our team. Out-of-state clients have built with us successfully from start to finish.
Client Testimonials
The clients said it better than we could.
“The company's craftsmanship and quality passed every inspection with no changes required.”

“Excellent workmanship! They did an excellent job on our project. Cactus Valley Homes and all their tradesmen are skilled craftsmen. Cactus Valley Homes sets high standards for themselves as well as for their subcontractors. The work was done on schedule, whether it was the company team members or their subcontractors. Don found areas on the drawings that were not consistent to what had been previously built, in this case framing, and made the changes. The company's craftsmanship and quality passed every inspection with no changes required. The team was always responsive to my questions, during the project as well as the changes I made. The job site was cleaned up every day. We are very pleased with the timelines with scheduled work, on budget and of course our project.”

“Don Burns and Cactus Valley Homes completed renovation / additions of our entire home including the kitchen, family room, AZ room, study, hall bathroom etc. He also built a new addition for the master bedroom, master bathroom & closet. Don worked well with our MN based designer. Before bids were due Don brought his four main subcontractors (plumbing, electrical, HVAC & cabinetmaker) to our 40 year old house to review the work. We received several great ideas that were incorporated into the project. Our project included new flooring in all rooms, upgrading plumbing and electrical to code, new archway into AZ room, moving air handling to attic, expanding kitchen and adding island and new windows. Our project was completed on time - 10 weeks. We were kept well informed in MN with daily reports on work completed and people on site as well as weekly pictures of progress. We are very pleased with the final results and received good value for the cost. We would highly recommend Cactus Valley Homes for any remodel / repair work and would definitely use them again. They were particularly great to work with by long distance and we were very comfortable turning our home over to him while being in MN. It was an excellent experience and especially the outstanding workmanship that was provided. I would recommend his team to anyone!”
