Building Extraordinary Homes. Creating Exceptional Experiences.
Custom homes should be as well thought out as they are beautiful.
Blake-Tull Custom Homes builds fully custom homes throughout East Texas and the Lake Fork area, with careful planning, honest communication, and craftsmanship that matters long after move-in.
Because there's a lot more to a well-built home than what makes it into the pictures.
A Beautiful Home Is Only Part of It.
Building a custom home is a big investment—and there are a lot of decisions between the first set of plans and move-in day.
We believe you should understand your budget before construction begins, know what is happening on your job, and feel comfortable asking questions along the way.
That means honest conversations, realistic expectations, clear schedules, progress photos, organized selections and approvals, and a team that keeps you involved without making you manage the project yourself.
The finished home matters. So does how we get there.
Completely Custom. Completely Yours.
There is no standard Blake-Tull home.
Every home starts with the people who will live there—how you live, what matters to you, and what will make the house work for your family.
That means we ask a lot of questions. Probably a few you haven't thought about yet. That's the point.
From the overall layout to the details you probably won't notice until you're living there, we build each home specifically for the people who call it home.
The Difference Is in the Details.
Thoughtful Planning
We ask a lot of questions before we build. Plans, specifications, priorities, budget and potential issues are worked through as early as possible—when they're much easier to address.
Finding a problem on paper is considerably cheaper than finding it in lumber.
Hands-On Construction
Experienced project management, trusted trade partners, quality-control checks and attention to the details you can see—and plenty you can't.
Some of the most important work in your home will eventually be covered up. We care about that work, too.
Financial Transparency
Schedules, selections, approvals, progress photos and project information stay organized in one place, so you don't have to wonder what's happening with your home.
And no, software absolutely doesn’t replace picking up the phone.
An Organized Experience
You should know where your money is going. It's your money. We don't think that should be a controversial idea.
Detailed estimating and ongoing job-cost visibility help you understand the real cost of your home throughout construction.
Let's Talk About Your Project.
Whether you have completed plans or you're still figuring out exactly what you want to build, we'd love to hear what you're thinking.
You don't need to have everything figured out before you call us. That's part of what the first conversation is for.
Built on Experience. Guided by What Matters.
Blake-Tull Custom Homes was created by Jon and Brianne Tull after years of hands-on experience with custom home construction, project management, selections, client communication, and the systems that keep a complicated build organized.
Along the way, we developed some pretty strong opinions about what makes building a custom home a good experience.
We also developed some pretty strong opinions about what makes it unnecessarily difficult.
So when we created Blake-Tull, we built the company around both.
Good craftsmanship. Better planning. Honest conversations. Clear information. And people who take responsibility for the home you've trusted them to build.
(We're pretty particular about the homes we build. Turns out we're pretty particular about the process, too.)
Homes Built Around the People Who Live in Them.
The way you live should have as much influence on your home as the way you want it to look.
Let's Build Something Extraordinary.
You don't need to have every detail figured out.
Tell us where you are in the process, what you're dreaming about, and what matters most in your new home.
We'll start there.
