FAQ

Absolutely — that’s exactly what a Homestead Shell is built for. DreamStart delivers a weather-tight, dried-in Garret Ridge with SIP wall and roof panels installed and metal exterior complete — once your concrete contractor has the slab ready. You hire your own electrician, plumber, and finish carpenters, or tackle portions yourself. Most buyers save $40,000–$100,000 compared to a full turnkey build.

The Garret Ridge shell package includes Solid-Core SIP wall panels (R-26+), Metal roofing with blown-in insulation (R-45+), metal exterior cladding, and professional crew installation. Windows, exterior doors, and garage doors are purchased separately by the customer and set by our crew during installation. The concrete slab foundation is a separate cost handled by your concrete contractor. Interior work — drywall, flooring, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, kitchen, and bathrooms — is completed by you or your own contractors.
