  • Reel Homes Does Things Differently

    At Reel Homes, you work with the owners of our company from day one right through the day you move into your new home. Any time you have a question, we are just a phone call or email away. There is no jumping through hoops to get to us. Owner personal attention ensures all your needs are met ASAP.

  • You’re Not a Number, You’re a Priority!

    When you build a home with Reel Homes, you’re not a number. No matter if you are building a finely detailed custom-drawn 10,000 sq. ft. home or a 3,000 sq. ft. home based on one of our floor plans, everyone is treated the same. No customer or home is more important than another. Every home is a priority at Reel Homes!

  • Lump Sum Pricing

    We believe the pricing we provide should include everything, including site work, engineering, permitting, and all required inspections. Lump Sum Pricing is a “worry-free approach” that keeps our clients from going through the entire construction process worrying about overages.

  • Architectural Changes at No Cost

    We will take any of our plans and adjust them to your specifications at no cost.  The fact that we offer free architectural changes can really save you money! If you want to adjust an elevation on a plan, no problem. Use a staircase from one model and place it into the model of your choice, again no problem!  We will work together to create your dream home. Letting us help you design your home not only saves you thousands of dollars in architectural fees that other builders charge, but it allows us to guide you through the process, reviewing cost-saving measures each step of the way!

  • Reel Homes Goes Beyond Your Expectations©

    We pride ourselves on doing things right the first time. Every phase of the process, from our detailed pricing to our specification sheets, is completed with professionalism and care. We want you to feel comfortable throughout the home building process knowing exactly what you can expect from us.  Visit our Online Gallery to see some of our completed homes, including properties in McLean, Vienna, Falls Church, and Fairfax, VA!


What our clients say

“Eric and Chris did a great job on the workmanship and design in remodeling our home. We love the way our new kitchen and bathrooms look. They were always the first ones at the house every day and the last ones to leave. We loved working with Reel Homes and we would never consider using anyone else on future projects.”

“They made the whole process a breeze. Eric was at the site early every day making sure everything was done right and addressed all of our concerns and questions. They held our hands right from the beginning up until moving in. We would definitely continue recommending Reel Homes/Eric and Chris to prospective clients looking to build their homes.”

“We had worked with a larger builder that claims a custom home experience, but working with Chris and Eric showed how inaccurate that claim was. We were able to build a home that really met our needs as a family, and the quality in workmanship and detail was at a completely different level as well. Everyone at Reel Homes guided us through this daunting process and worked with us each step of the way. We were able to provide as much or as little input as we wanted and the result is a home we truly love.”

“With lots of concerns and worry about unknowns to build a house, we are so happy to have Reel Homes take it over and build it from A to Z.  Attention to details, good quality works and instant response to our questions are very satisfactory. Reel Homes fulfilled its promises in a timely fashion without surprises or being over budget. If I build another house in the future, Reel Homes will be my first choice again.”

“From the start, we felt a sense of comfort and trust in you and as the project went underway, we were convinced that we made the right decision. Your willingness to work with us and accommodate our needs was priceless. Your effort to keep us informed throughout the building process was much appreciated … It truly takes someone who knows what they are doing and who enjoys it to take an empty lot and turn it into a beautiful home, both inside and out. There is no question that we would recommend Reel Homes to anyone who is looking to build their home!”
