The firm was established in 2003 by Ashley Collins, an experienced member of the homebuilding industry who had spent his younger years learning the tricks of the trade in his father’s business, simultaneously acquiring a devotion to family values that have translated into the principles that continue to drive Collins Builders today. Predominantly engaged in ‘build on your lot’ projects that require Design + Build services for custom homes built from scratch, Collins takes on personal responsibility for realizing the visions of its clients for their dream home. Investing time, energy and effort into a project from the first meeting to the completion of a project ensures the Collins team is able to learn all that they can about a client, their needs, and their wants. Listening attentively and painting a clear picture of the proposed project is therefore an essential step in the Collins process. For many years, helping clients to visualize an accurate image of what the project could look like was a challenge, as it is near impossible to bring designs and sketches on paper to life. Now, however, Collins benefits from a pool of design resources and capabilities to assist the team, including Lumion 3D Design Services, which the team will begin using this year. Consequently, clients will be able to explore their new home through virtual walkthroughs that exhibit room sizes, ceiling heights, color palettes, furniture placement, and so much more, before the physical foundations of the project have even been laid. This is undoubtedly a game changer for Collins and its entire industry, making house design more accessible for clients and a much more enjoyable experience for all. With full-service, in-house teams that manage architectural and interior design, operational support, sales and construction, all in one place, Collins is able to ensure the seamless rollout of a project from the initial consultation to the final conveyance, delivering informed advice and services in design, construction, project management, budgets, and more.
