Custom Home Building
Crafting legacy estates and luxury residences in Horseshoe Bay, Lake LBJ, and the Texas Hill Country.
The Premier Custom Home Builder in the Texas Hill Country
At Westway Custom Builders, we believe that a true custom home is more than just a structure; it is a physical manifestation of your life's achievements, your personal style, and your family's legacy. For over two decades, we have been the trusted luxury custom home builder for discerning clients in Horseshoe Bay, Marble Falls, Spicewood, and the surrounding Highland Lakes area.
Our approach to custom home building is rooted in a deep understanding of the unique architectural and environmental demands of the Texas Hill Country. Whether you are envisioning a sprawling modern lakefront estate on Lake LBJ, a sophisticated contemporary retreat overlooking the golf course at Summit Rock, or a timeless transitional masterpiece nestled in the hills, our team possesses the expertise to bring your vision to life with uncompromising quality.
An Unwavering Commitment to Craftsmanship
What sets Westway apart from other builders in Central Texas is our obsessive attention to detail and our refusal to compromise on materials or craftsmanship. We do not build "cookie-cutter" homes. Every project we undertake is a unique, ground-up creation tailored specifically to the client's lifestyle and the specific topography of their lot.
We partner with the region's most respected architects, interior designers, and master artisans to ensure that every element of your home—from the structural integrity of the foundation to the intricate millwork of the custom cabinetry—is executed flawlessly. Our lead builder, Tom Classen, brings decades of experience managing multi-million dollar developments, ensuring that complex builds are managed with precision and foresight.
The Westway Building Experience
We understand that building a custom home from afar can be daunting. Many of our clients are relocating to the Horseshoe Bay area or building secondary legacy properties. To accommodate this, we have refined our building process to be highly transparent, communicative, and client-centric.
- Site-Specific Design: We evaluate your lot's unique characteristics—views, topography, solar orientation, and mature trees—to optimize the home's placement and design.
- Transparent Financials: We provide detailed, comprehensive budgeting and regular financial updates, so you always know exactly where your investment is going.
- Dedicated Project Management: Our Head Project Manager, Michael Crause, is on-site daily, ensuring strict quality control and adherence to the project timeline.
- Seamless Communication: Through regular video updates, site walkthroughs, and proactive communication from Cindy Classen, you remain intimately involved in the process, regardless of your physical location.
When you choose Westway Custom Builders, you are not just hiring a contractor; you are partnering with a dedicated team that is as invested in the perfection of your home as you are.

Custom Home Building FAQs
How long does it take to build a custom home in Horseshoe Bay?
The timeline for a luxury custom home varies significantly based on the size, complexity of the design, and site conditions (such as building on a steep incline or waterfront). On average, our custom builds take between 12 to 18 months from the time the foundation is poured. We provide a detailed timeline during the pre-construction phase.
Do you help with lot selection in the Highland Lakes area?
Yes. We highly recommend involving us before you purchase a lot. We can provide valuable insights into site preparation costs, utility access, topography challenges, and how the land will dictate the architectural design of your home.
What architectural styles do you specialize in?
While we have extensive experience building Modern Hill Country, Transitional, and Contemporary homes, we are a true custom builder. We do not limit ourselves to specific styles. We build to the exact specifications of your architectural plans, ensuring the final product reflects your personal aesthetic.
How do you handle communication for out-of-state clients?
A large percentage of our clients live outside of Central Texas during the build. We utilize advanced project management software, conduct regular video walkthroughs, and provide weekly progress reports with photos to ensure you are always informed and involved in the decision-making process.
