Custom new builds. Connecticut homes.
Ground-up custom home construction across Hartford and Tolland Counties. Land prep through final walkthrough — your single-source contractor with 25+ years of CT building experience.
A custom home, built by people who live in CT too.
We don't build cookie-cutter spec houses. Every Lagace new build starts with your lot, your budget, your family's actual needs — then works backward into a design that makes sense for Connecticut weather, terrain, and building codes.
From land clearing and foundation through framing, mechanicals, finishes, and CO inspection, the same Lagace crew handles every phase. We hold a CT New Home Contractor License (NHC.0016939) — required for any contractor doing original construction in the state.

- Stick-built framing engineered for CT snow loads

Common questions.
How much does a custom new build cost in CT?
Modest custom homes start around $400,000-$600,000 (1,500-2,000 sq ft). Mid-range builds ($600,000-$1.2M) cover most family homes. Premium builds with high-end finishes range $1.2M-$3M+.
How long does new home construction take?
A typical 2,500 sq ft Connecticut new build runs 9-14 months from groundbreaking through certificate of occupancy. Permitting and design can add 2-6 months at the front depending on your town.
Do you handle land purchase or development?
We don't buy land for clients, but we can recommend trusted realtors and assess prospective lots for buildability, septic feasibility, and town zoning constraints before you close.
Can I do a "shell only" build?
Yes. We can deliver a weather-tight shell (foundation, framing, roof, siding, windows) and let you finish the interior with your own contractors or DIY.
