Why Choose OTBX Custom Builders for Your Dream Home in North Carolina

Discover the OTBX Difference

Building a custom home isn’t just about creating a space to live—it’s about bringing your vision to life with precision, quality, and care. At OTBX Custom Builders, we pride ourselves on our unique approach to home building. From proactive problem-solving to a commitment to structural excellence, we go above and beyond to ensure your new home exceeds your expectations.

What Sets OTBX Apart from Other Custom Builders

Transparent Allowances and Budgeting

One of the most stressful aspects of building a home can be managing the budget. At OTBX, we make this simple by providing clear, realistic allowances for everything from cabinetry to countertops. Unlike other builders, we don’t cut corners or under-budget key features.

For example, if you have a $50,000 cabinetry allowance and only spend $42,000, we refund the difference. This ensures you never pay more than necessary while getting exactly what you envisioned.

Expertly Designed Custom Blueprints

Your home’s design is the foundation of its success. That’s why we work closely with our in-house designer and engineer to create plans tailored to your lot, your lifestyle, and your vision. Unlike stock plans, which often fail to meet local codes or structural needs, our custom blueprints are built with precision and care, saving you time and money.

Working directly with our team, you’ll have the opportunity to review and refine your plans in real-time, ensuring every detail is perfect.

Proactive Problem-Solving

Building a home comes with challenges, but at OTBX, we take a proactive approach to overcoming them. Whether it’s securing septic permits through soil engineers or navigating HOA requirements, we handle the complexities so you don’t have to.

Our team’s experience and resourcefulness ensure that potential roadblocks—like site grading or flood zone concerns—are addressed early, saving you time, money, and headaches.

Unmatched Structural Integrity

A custom home should stand the test of time, which is why OTBX focuses on superior construction practices. Unlike many builders who rely on trusses, we build stick-framed homes for greater structural integrity.

Here’s how we ensure your home is built to last:

Stick-Built Roofs: Rafters on 16-inch centers provide better durability than trusses, which often use 2x4s on 24-inch centers.
5/8-Inch Plywood Roof Decking: Stronger than the industry standard, this material prevents roof warping and increases longevity.
Custom Load Calculations: Whether you're planning for a pool table or a hot tub, we design your floors to handle the load without sagging or structural issues.

Our attention to detail ensures that your home is not only beautiful but also built to withstand the demands of daily life and the unique challenges of North Carolina’s climate.

A Builder Who Cares About Your Vision

At OTBX, we’re not just building houses—we’re crafting homes designed around your needs, preferences, and lifestyle.
