Planning Your Custom Home This Spring? Why Now is the Perfect Time to Get Started in Chapel Hill & Durham
Spring in North Carolina isn’t just about blooming dogwoods and perfect porch weather—it’s also one of the best times of year to begin planning your custom home build or luxury renovation project. At Will Johnson Building Company, we’ve helped families across Chapel Hill, Durham, and the Triangle bring their home dreams to life for over 30 years—and we know the difference early planning can make.
1. Spring Offers a Fresh Start for Custom Home Design
If you’re thinking about building a custom home or undertaking a whole-home renovation, spring is the ideal time to start working with a design-build firm. The longer days and renewed energy of the season make it easier to start envisioning your future home, and getting started now allows time for thoughtful planning before breaking ground later this year.

2. Beat the Summer Rush & Lock in Your Timeline
Spring is when many homeowners begin contacting builders, which means schedules for custom projects fill up fast. By reaching out early, you’ll be more likely to secure your spot and move through permitting, planning, and selections with less stress.
Our team at Will Johnson Building Company uses a proven, in-house design-build process that ensures your project stays on track from concept to completion. Starting in spring gives you the advantage of time—and the flexibility to make thoughtful decisions along the way.
