Serving Clients in Rogue Valley Since 2002

Known for its vibrant arts scene, historic architecture, and stunning mountain surroundings, Ashland is one of Southern Oregon’s most sought-after destinations for custom homebuilding. Whether you’re drawn to the area’s culture, access to outdoor recreation, or peaceful pace of life, Ashland offers the perfect setting for a one-of-a-kind residence. At DC Builders, we’ve been building custom homes across Oregon since 2002, including several in Southern Oregon.

What We Do

At DC Builders, we specialize in custom residential construction designed to reflect your lifestyle, values, and surroundings. Whether you’re building a secluded retreat in the foothills or a contemporary home near downtown Ashland, our team manages every phase of the project under one roof—including design, structural engineering, interior design, framing and installation, and general contracting. Our integrated approach makes the experience more efficient, collaborative, and enjoyable from start to finish.

Every home we build is crafted for performance and beauty, using high-quality materials and expert techniques to ensure long-term value and comfort. While we’re known for our timber frame and hybrid wood structures, we tailor every design to suit our clients’ individual vision—whether that’s something rustic, modern, or entirely custom. For those looking for a faster path to construction, we also offer pre-engineered building kits through our sister company, DC Structures, all customizable and built to the same high standards.

Frequently Asked Questions

Ashland’s hillside and rural properties can offer incredible views and privacy—but they also come with site-specific considerations. Our team evaluates every property for slope, access, and wildfire risk, then designs around those elements to ensure stability, safety, and long-term performance. We’ve completed many successful hillside builds across Oregon and know how to make the most of a complex site.

Absolutely. Many of our clients in Ashland are drawn to thoughtful, expressive design—and we love helping them bring that vision to life. Whether you’re inspired by modern, craftsman, rustic, or something entirely custom, our team works with you to develop a design that reflects your aesthetic, values, and the character of your property.

Most of our custom homes in Southern Oregon take 12 to 18 months, depending on permitting, site conditions, and project scope. We help reduce construction time by using a simplified build system with pre-cut and pre-drilled framing lumber, which speeds up on-site assembly. For reference, a 3,000 sq. ft. home typically takes 9–12 months to complete, including 2–3 months for dry-in and another 8–9 weeks for finishing.
