Trusted relationships. Lasting partnerships.
Absolutely wonderful experience building our home with Carl Dean overseeing the process. He made sure every detail was perfect. We have a home we will raise our children in and could not be happier.

From the very beginning, working with Dean & Co has been nothing short of extraordinary. They didn’t just build us a house—they brought our dream home to life with care, creativity, and unwavering professionalism.
Every step of the process felt collaborative and personal. Carl, Mat, TJ, and the entire Dean & Co team took the time to understand who we are and how we live, which was reflected in every detail of the design and build. They asked the right questions, offered thoughtful solutions, and were always available with a reassuring word or helpful suggestion. Nothing was ever “just good enough”—they always aimed higher.
One of the things we appreciated most was their creativity. They found clever ways to make the most of our space, offered design ideas we never would have thought of, and still managed to keep everything aligned with our vision. Their passion for their craft shows, and you can feel it in every corner of our home.
They also handled the logistics and build process with absolute professionalism—staying on schedule, communicating clearly, and managing trades and timelines with incredible efficiency. At no point did we feel out of the loop or unsure of where things stood.
But above all, what sets Dean & Co apart is their heart. It’s clear they genuinely care—not just about the final product, but about the experience of the families they build for. They treated our home like it was their own, and that kind of dedication is rare.
We feel so lucky to have had them by our side through this journey, and we’ll be forever grateful to the Dean & Co family. We love our home—it’s more beautiful than we ever imagined—and that’s entirely thanks to them. If you’re dreaming of a home that’s built with integrity, imagination, and heart, you’ll be in the best possible hands with Dean & Co.

He was very helpful and forward thinking throughout the process, helping us with many things that we would have never thought of. He was on site regularly and finished strong and on time, which was a huge factor for us! Aside from that, the whole family just loved Carl! We would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to build a custom home.

I had the privilege of working side by side with Carl and his subs for 18 months during the build and completion of our custom home. There was no hurdle Carl and his team could not overcome, no issue they couldn’t fix and no rabbit he wasn’t able to pull out of his hat no matter how outlandish our requests were. Carl was all about making sure this process was seamless and as stress free as humanly possible. We’re blessed to have worked with him and would recommend him to anyone looking for someone honest, someone experienced and most importantly someone who truly cared for their customer. Thank you Carl!
