You Inspire Us

We will deliver a truly custom home that reflects your vision. Go ahead and toss those pre-existing floor plans aside; we’ll create a timeless design based on your input, style and budget – free of charge. From the moment you sign off on your blueprints, to that final walk through, you can rest assured that our superior craftsmanship and personal service will make the home building process a breeze. That’s why Ideal Designs remains at the top in customer satisfaction ratings once the home construction is complete.

Communication is Key

Stay involved every step of the way with BuilderTrend, a detailed online record of your home’s construction. Whether you are at work, on the road or at home, BuilderTrend allows you to stay in constant communication with us and follow the building process as it progresses. With BuilderTrend you’ll also be able to scan documents, browse photos, view upgrades, ask questions and more.

Warranties

You’ll be worry-free knowing that your home is protected by Ideal Design’s first-class warranty. After the building process is complete, we offer walk-throughs at 30 days and at 11 months. In addition, you’ll have three-year termite protection and a 10-year dry basement guarantee. We stand behind the work we put into your home.

Certifications

At Ideal Designs, we strive for perfection on a daily basis — and that hard work shows. We are accredited by the Better Business Bureau and are a member of Build Omaha. Ideal Designs is also an Energy Star Partner, which means our homes are built to be energy efficient, offering lower utility bills, better home comfort and increased home value. These certifications are just one reason why we are one of the most trusted custom home builders in Omaha.
