What We Do
At DC Builders, we specialize in custom residential construction tailored to your lifestyle, location, and long-term goals. Whether you’re building a vacation retreat in the woods or a full-time residence near the Deschutes River, our team manages every phase of the process under one roof—including design, structural engineering, interior design, framing and installation, and general contracting. This integrated approach ensures a smoother, more efficient experience from concept to completion.
Our homes are crafted with performance and durability in mind, especially in high-desert climates like Sunriver. We’re known for our timber frame and hybrid wood structures, but we customize every home to suit your style—whether it’s modern, rustic, or somewhere in between. We also partner with our sister company, DC Structures, to offer pre-engineered building kits for clients seeking a faster, more streamlined path to construction—without sacrificing quality or flexibility.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! Sunriver is one of the most popular destinations in Central Oregon for vacation homes and family retreats, thanks to its forested setting, outdoor activities, and close proximity to Bend. Whether you’re building for personal use or occasional rental, we can help you design a home that fits your lifestyle and investment goals.
Homes in Sunriver need to perform well in all seasons—from dry, hot summers to snowy winters. We build with durable, weather-resistant materials and incorporate energy-efficient systems that help regulate temperature and reduce long-term maintenance. Timber frame and hybrid structures are especially popular in the region for their beauty and performance.
Custom home timelines in Sunriver typically range from 12 to 18 months, depending on permitting, site conditions, and design complexity. We streamline the process using a simplified build system that includes pre-cut and pre-drilled framing lumber. For reference, a 3,000 sq. ft. home generally takes 9–12 months to complete, with 2–3 months for dry-in and another 8–9 weeks for finishing.
