About Us

A note from Matt Powers

My team and I have been building for friends and family for over 20 years. I started in the home building business as a superintendent for a local Texas builder in 1992. Since then, I have built 250 homes and managed construction for the 5th largest city in the US for the largest home builder in the US, and started, built and sold a regional build-on-your-lot company. In 2001, I started Matt Powers Custom Homes to focus on creating distinguished homes for discriminating home owners. Each member of our team is fully trained and qualified to exceed your expectations. We build your home as if it were our own. Your decision to build or renovate is important to us and we value your relationship. We are a professional organization and will accompany you in every decision and step of the process. I look forward to meeting you soon.
