Exceptional custom homes, additions, and whole-home renovations, crafted with integrity and built to last generations.
We're Hutton Building Company, based in Cary and building across the Greater Triangle. We started this company because we believe the people building your home should be just as invested in it as you are.
We handle everything from the first sketch to the final walkthrough. One team, one contract, and someone clearly responsible for your project from start to finish. No finger-pointing between contractors, no surprises at the end.
Before we pick up a hammer, we get to know you. Your family, your lifestyle, your vision for what home means. That's how we build homes people actually love living in.

“It was by sheer chance that I met this amazing young team who agreed to work on my kitchen remodeling. They were so respectful, attentive and professional. I have heard horror stories about contractors. What a relief it was to have this team work on my awful original 1976 kitchen and transform it into a dream kitchen. Each day as I enter the kitchen, there is a welcoming sense of delight. Last but not least, I was impressed by the way they speak with their crew — again so respectfully.”
“Hutton Group oversaw and ran a full renovation project for us converting a house into a duplex. Working with them was so easy. They went above and beyond for the project, finding ways to meet our budget and still look amazing. From the design process through to construction, they were on time and performed everything to a high quality. Would absolutely recommend them to anyone needing help with a small or big project!”
“Hutton Building Company did a phenomenal job with a sunroom renovation for us. We were particularly impressed with the design ideas and finishing touches they brought to the table. The completed work was polished and precise. They were responsive to a concern we raised about flooring that came loose after installation, and came out to repair it quickly. Overall we had a great experience and would work with them again in a heartbeat.”
“The team at Hutton Building were absolutely wonderful. We absolutely love our home and all the attention to detail that went into creating this space for us. They listened to what we needed and made it happen! A professional, efficient, talented and client focused team I would highly recommend to anyone.”
“Joel, Matt and the Hutton team have been a pleasure to work with during the design process. They have ensured we are kept up to date with all steps of the process. We appreciate their attention to detail and transparency throughout.”
“Matt and Joel came in to do the restoration and the whole job was completed — with compassion, understanding and professionally. They listened to my wishes and needs and they advised when it was necessary. They treated me with great respect and always heard my requests. I can recommend them to anyone who wishes to work with them, knowing they strive to be the best and to do work that will meet your expectations.”

Use our free Triangle-area project calculator to get a realistic ballpark estimate for your new home, addition, or renovation, based on current local market rates.

No fluff, no runaround. Here are the questions we hear most often — and the real answers.
Custom home construction in the Triangle typically runs $250–$400+ per square foot, depending on design complexity, site conditions, and finishes. A 3,000 sq ft home generally falls in the $750K–$1.1M range at standard to premium quality. Use our project estimator for a more personalized figure, then book a consultation for a proper proposal.
From signed contract to move-in, most custom homes take 12–18 months. Our design-build model overlaps design and pre-construction, which can shave 2–4 months off the traditional architect-then-contractor timeline. We'll give you a realistic schedule — not an optimistic one — before you commit to anything.
A design-build contractor handles both design and construction under one roof, with one contract. The traditional model separates your architect from your builder — which creates miscommunication, cost overruns, and a lot of "ask them, not us." With Hutton, one team owns the entire outcome. If something's wrong, you call us. No finger-pointing.
Yes — completely. We manage all permitting, town inspections, and HOA architectural submissions on your behalf. You won't spend a single hour in a government office or filling out HOA forms. That's part of the service.
It's a real conversation — about your vision, your budget, your timeline, and your property. No sales pitch, no pressure. You'll leave knowing what's realistic, what it costs, and whether we're the right fit for each other. Most people tell us it's the most useful hour they've spent on their project. Book yours here.
Absolutely. If you're already working with an architect or designer you love, we're happy to come on board as your builder only. We also offer design-only engagements if you need planning and drawings but want to manage construction yourself. We fit your situation.
