Top Questions About Custom Home Building & Remodeling
How long does a custom home build or remodel usually take?
Because every project is unique, costs vary based on location, size, and design complexity. In general, custom homes in Aspen range from $600 to $800 per square foot, while whole-home remodels typically start around $400 per square foot. McSwain Builders ensures financial transparency through the Buildertrend platform, where clients can view real-time budgets, itemized costs, and project updates for complete clarity.
What makes your custom home building process different?
A custom kitchen remodel typically takes 8 to 14 weeks, depending on the project scope, material selections, and whether it’s part of a full home renovation or a standalone project. McSwain Builders manages every phase—from design and permitting to construction and finishing—through Buildertrend, keeping homeowners informed daily with progress photos, schedules, and milestone updates.
What’s the average cost to build or remodel a custom home in Aspen?
McSwain Builders combines refined craftsmanship, open-book financial management, and mountain-ready construction built to last. Unlike volume-based contractors, we focus on select, high-value projects that demand creativity, precision, and collaboration. Clients invest in premium materials, expert execution, and a transparent process designed to protect timelines, budgets, and long-term value.
What’s included in your custom home building process?
Yes. Many McSwain Builders clients are second-home owners who live outside Colorado year-round. Through the Buildertrend platform, we provide complete remote project management with daily photos, detailed budgets, and progress reports. From permitting to final walkthrough, out-of-state homeowners enjoy a seamless, transparent experience and direct communication with the McSwain team every step of the way.
