Busy Builders Now Offers Custom Home Building in Des Moines Area
West Des Moines, United States – January 29, 2026 / Busy Builders LLC /
West Des Moines, Iowa – Five years ago, Busy Builders was founded on a straightforward concept: what if a construction firm genuinely provided honest information?
No concealed fees hidden in change orders. No contractors who vanish without a trace. No commitments that fade away the moment a contract is signed.
This guiding philosophy has successfully assisted over 1,000 homeowners in Central Iowa with their additions, renovations, and remodels. Beginning today, Busy Builders is officially launching custom home building services for families in Des Moines, West Des Moines, Ankeny, Waukee, and the surrounding regions.
Why Opt for Custom Home Building? Because Iowa Families Kept Asking
The move into custom home building was not driven by a corporate growth plan. It emerged organically due to persistent requests from homeowners.
“After completing a significant addition or a full home remodel, families would often say, ‘If we had known about you five years ago, we would have just had you build the entire thing,’” shares the Busy Builders team. “Hearing that repeatedly made us realize that Central Iowa families were in need of a trustworthy custom home builder.”
Custom home building aligns perfectly with a company that has spent years understanding the specific needs of families in the Des Moines area. The challenges posed by harsh Iowa winters. The humidity levels. The necessity of a functional mudroom after experiencing one February in Ankeny. The requirement for basements to manage moisture while still serving as usable living spaces.
This local expertise is not derived from a manual; it is the result of five years of addressing real issues faced by families throughout Polk County, Dallas County, and the greater Des Moines area.
What Distinguishes This Des Moines Custom Home Builder
Many home builders focus on volume. They aim to complete a project quickly and move on to the next.
In contrast, Busy Builders prioritizes relationships.
Each custom home building endeavor begins with a sincere discussion about budget, timeline, and expectations. There is no sales pitch or bait-and-switch tactic where the “starting price” unexpectedly increases. It is a genuine dialogue where both parties assess whether collaborating on a custom home is feasible.
From that point forward, clients remain engaged throughout every phase of the home building journey. This is not merely a marketing strategy; it is a practical approach to avoid costly surprises. When homeowners are informed about the process and its rationale, projects proceed more smoothly, and budgets remain intact.
The company applies the same high standards of craftsmanship that established its reputation in remodeling: using quality materials, employing skilled tradespeople who take pride in their work, and implementing construction practices tailored to Iowa’s climate. Energy efficiency is not an optional upgrade; it is integrated into every custom home because well-performing houses are more economical to maintain.
Custom Home Building Coupled with Comprehensive Remodeling Services
The introduction of custom home building does not signify that Busy Builders is moving away from the services that solidified its reputation in the Des Moines area.
Home additions, kitchen and bathroom renovations, basement finishing, and deck construction will continue to be offered by the same dedicated team and uphold the same standards. For homeowners in West Des Moines, Johnston, Urbandale, or Grimes who cherish their neighborhoods but require additional space, Busy Builders remains the reliable choice.
The key difference now is that families in Central Iowa have more choices. They can either enhance their existing home or construct a custom home from scratch. Regardless of the option selected, they will be collaborating with a team that has already demonstrated its commitment to showing up, maintaining clear communication, and fulfilling promises.
For Families in the Des Moines Area Prepared to Build
Building a custom home represents one of the most significant decisions a family can make. Busy Builders believes that this decision should be accompanied by complete transparency-regarding pricing, timelines, and expectations at each stage of construction.
Competitive pricing. Honest communication. Custom homes designed to endure.
