Our Process

1 — Consultation
To start, we help you determine the best location for your new home in Shorewood if you have yet to purchase a lot. We then help you determine the preferences you have for your home, setting the groundwork for design choices.

2 — Meet with the Architect
This is where you get to dream big. We’ll discuss all of your wants and needs that should be included in the new home so we can design a space that makes you happy and works functionally in all the ways you need. Our architect will provide the final sketch in approximately 2 weeks.

3 — Your Blueprint
When the architect is done, you’ll get to sit down with us to go over the blueprint where we’ll nail down the nitty-gritty details of your design. The blueprint will give you a clear idea of exactly what your custom home will look like and help generate the cost estimate. This is the step where you’ll arrange financing for your home. Once approved, we’ll create the purchase agreement contract and collect a portion of the required deposit.

4 — Design and Build Phase
Once your lot has been secured and the deposit paid, the construction will begin. While we’re working on construction, you’ll meet with a Norton Homes interior designer to make all the final aesthetic and detail decisions.

5 — Delivery
Approximately nine months after permits are submitted, Norton Homes will deliver your new custom home. We’ll do a walkthrough together to ensure all details meet your expectations. Additionally, we’re here to adjust anything that may arise as your home settles after construction.

“Jeff and I still ask each other… “Do we live here?” We know we made the right decision to build our new home with Chris.”

Jeff & Amy L.

“We had an extremely positive experience building our new home with Norton Homes. Chris was just fabulous to work with. We have appreciated his knowledge, honesty, and friendly, professional service. His responsiveness to our questions, even after we moved in, continues to reinforce Chris’ focus to customer service. He personally checked in with us a few weeks after closing to make sure everything was going well. The team of people Chris has chosen to represent him are also top notch. His realtor Cristy was very helpful and quick to respond to our needs. The crew members were all very professional and experts in their field. Working with them to build our home really made it an enjoyable effort! We would highly recommend building a home with Chris Norton, Norton Homes.”
