Why build with us
Whether you want a solid, contractor-grade home that makes the most of your budget or a fully upgraded luxury build, Silver Spurs builds it with the same care. You choose the finish level, and we build it right.
Start with contractor grade, or step up to upgraded or premium finishes. Upgrades are offered by finish tier on each plan, priced by quote. See the tiers on our house plans.
You get Benjamin's direct number. Questions, decisions, and changes go through one person who knows your project inside and out.
Wells, septic, long driveways, power extensions, and county permits are normal for us, from Franklin County to Bear Lake County, and we're certified to install basic septic systems in Idaho. We help you understand what your lot needs before you sign.
Clear numbers, clear allowances, and honest answers. Specifications, allowances, and change orders are in writing before work happens.
Services
Your plan, your finishes, your land or ours, from contractor grade to fully upgraded. We price as the design develops so the home stays within your budget.
New Silver Spurs homes built and ready to buy, with no construction loan or long wait. See what's available.
We schedule and manage the site work, including foundation excavation, utility trenching, grading, and driveway prep, so it's done right before the foundation goes in. One builder is accountable from foundation to final walkthrough.
We're certified to install basic septic systems in Idaho. We coordinate the test holes for the health-district site evaluation and install the system when your lot calls for a basic one.
Before you buy or commit, we walk the land with you and look at access, slope, drainage, soils, utilities, and septic so you know site costs up front.
Benjamin and Betty work with you on plan selection and home design: start from one of our plans, modify a plan you love, or bring your own. Engineering is added where required. Browse house plans or send us yours.
Have land, still looking, or just dreaming? A free, no-pressure consultation is the best first step.
ICF homes
Silver Spurs has experience building ICF (insulated concrete form) homes. Instead of wood-framed exterior walls, an ICF home has steel-reinforced concrete walls wrapped in continuous foam insulation on both sides. It's a higher-quality way to build, and you can feel the difference the day you move in.
ICF can be used on our house plans, on your own plans, and on luxury custom builds at Bear Lake. Every ICF home is priced in a written bid. Ask about building with ICF →
Now building at Bear Lake, Idaho
Just over the mountain from Preston, the Idaho side of Bear Lake is one of the most beautiful places in the West to build. Silver Spurs builds luxury custom homes there, including multimillion-dollar builds, with the same owner-led attention we give every home.
Serving the Idaho side of Bear Lake: Fish Haven, St. Charles, Paris, Bloomington, and the Montpelier area of Bear Lake County, Idaho.
We build in Idaho only.
Plan your Bear Lake homeOur process
Building a custom home is a series of clear steps. Here's what happens at each one.
Start with a call to Betty. We meet in person, on your lot, or by phone to talk about goals, must-haves, budget range, and timing.
Betty helps you find and buy the right lot, and Benjamin checks access, slope, drainage, soils, setbacks, water, sewer or septic, power, and easements, confirmed before design.
Benjamin and Betty help you pick one of our plans, modify one, or design from scratch. We price as the design develops.
Before any build contract is signed, you get pre-approved with our preferred lender, Caleb Adams of Caleb Adams Mortgage, so you know your budget is solid. He'll walk you through construction loan options, and we work with him on the budget, appraisal, and draw schedule.
A written proposal with specifications, allowances, and scope, plus the Idaho disclosure statement before you sign.
We coordinate septic, well, building permit, address, and utility applications.
Site work and foundation, framing and dry-in, rough-ins, insulation and drywall, finishes, flatwork, and final grade.
Pre-drywall, finish (blue-tape), and a final orientation on how your home's systems work.
Final inspections and occupancy, lien waivers, and a home binder with warranties, manuals, and paint colors.
Every new Silver Spurs home comes with a 1-year limited warranty. We stand behind our work after you move in.
Tip: starting design and permits in fall or winter is a smart way to be ready to break ground as soon as the ground thaws in spring.

It depends on size, design, finishes, and especially your lot. We'll give you a realistic range at the first meeting and a detailed written proposal once the design is set.
