Questions to Ask Your Builder Before You Build

Questions to Ask Your Builder Before You Build

Building a new home is one of the most exciting journeys you’ll ever take—but it’s also a big decision. Choosing the right builder isn’tjust about floor plans and finishes. It’s about trust, communication, and making sure you feel confident every step of the way. 

At Celebration Homes, we believe an informed homeowner is a happy homeowner. Whether you’re considering one of our communities in Middle Tennessee or just beginning your search, here are key questions you should ask your builder—and why they matter. 

1. What Makes Your Homes Different? 

Every builder has a signature style. At Celebration Homes, our homes are “More Space and More Style” by design. Ask your builder how their homes stand out from others on the market, and whether their floor plans are designed with livability, functionality, and personalization in mind. 

2. Can I Personalize My Home? 

Some builders offer “what you see is what you get” floor plans, while others allow flexibility. Ask: 

  • Can I make changes to the layout? 

  • What options are available for finishes, fixtures, and exterior design? 

Celebration Homes is known for ourquality and customdesigns—letting you maximize every square foot and tailor your home to your lifestyle. 

3. What’s Included in the Price? 

It’s important to understand what comes standard versus what counts as an upgrade. Be sure to ask: 

  • Are appliances included? 

  • What’s the standard flooring, countertop, and cabinet selection? 

  • Are landscaping and driveways part of the package? 

Knowing this up front prevents surprises later. 

4. What Warranties Do You Offer? 

A new home is a long-term investment. Ask your builder: 

  • What type of warranty comes with my home? 

  • Who do I contact if I need service or repairs? 

Celebration Homes provides warranties to give you peace of mind long after move-in day. 

5. How Do You Communicate During the Build? 

Building a home involves a lot of moving parts. You’ll want regular updates. Ask your builder: 

  • How often will I get progress reports? 

  • Who will be my main point of contact? 

  • How do I know if we’re on schedule? 

At Celebration Homes, we keep communication clear and consistent, so you always know where your home stands. 

6. How Long Will It Take to Build? 

Timelines can vary depending on location, home type, and customization. Ask your builder for a realistic timeline—and how they handle unexpected delays. 

7. Can I Tour Completed Homes or Model Homes? 

Seeing is believing. Walk through a model home or a recently completed build to get a feel for craftsmanship and finishes. 

8. What Do Other Homeowners Say About You? 

A reputable builder will be proud to share testimonials, references, or reviews. This gives you confidence that you’re not just buying a house—you’re joining a community.  

Building a new home should feel exciting, not overwhelming. The right builder will answer your questions clearly, guide you through the process, and deliver a home that truly fits your life. 

At Celebration Homes, we’re here to make sure your dream home in Tennessee is built on trust, transparency, and timeless design.
