What We Do
At DC Builders, we specialize in custom residential construction that’s designed to reflect your lifestyle, surroundings, and long-term goals. Whether you’re planning a timber frame lodge tucked into the trees or a modern mountain home just outside of town, our team manages the entire process under one roof—including design, structural engineering, interior design, framing and installation, and general contracting. Our all-in-one approach creates a more efficient, collaborative, and rewarding experience from start to finish.
We’re best known for our timber frame and hybrid wood structures—both of which are a natural fit for Central Oregon’s alpine setting—but every home we build is fully tailored to the individual. For clients interested in a streamlined approach, we also offer pre-engineered building kits through our sister company, DC Structures. These can be customized to your vision and built with the same high-quality materials and attention to detail you’d expect from any DC Builders project.

Frequently Asked Questions
Sisters offers a unique blend of natural beauty, creative energy, and small-town charm that’s hard to find elsewhere. It’s quieter than Bend, but still close to everything you need—including access to hiking, skiing, and year-round outdoor recreation. For many, it’s the perfect place to build a peaceful retreat that feels both connected and tucked away.
Absolutely. Our timber frame and hybrid structures are built with durability and energy efficiency in mind—especially important in a climate that swings between hot summers and snowy winters. These styles also fit beautifully with the rustic elegance and natural aesthetic of the Sisters area.
Most of our custom homes in Central Oregon take 12 to 18 months to complete, depending on site conditions, design complexity, and permitting. We help streamline the process with a simplified build system that includes pre-cut and pre-drilled framing lumber. A 3,000 sq. ft. home typically takes 9–12 months to finish, including 2–3 months for dry-in and another 8–9 weeks for interior work.
