Our Services
You are building something that should last. Here is how we help you do that.
Perch Customs is a design-build firm serving custom home clients in White Salmon and the Columbia River Gorge. Whether you come to us with your own plans, a rough site, or just a vision, we lead the process as one integrated team from first sketch to finished home.
Design + Build
When design and build share the same conversation, nothing gets lost.
Most architects submit drawings and move on. Most builders receive a finished set of plans and go to work. That handoff is where details die. Materials get substituted. Budgets get revised. The home you imagined starts to resemble an approximation.
Perch Customs holds design and construction as a single, continuous design-build process. We lead your project from the earliest site conversations through the final walkthrough with one team, one point of accountability, and one shared understanding of what you are building and why.
Because design and construction decisions happen in the same room, budget implications are understood immediately, site conditions inform design in real time, and nothing you spent months deciding has to be undone in the field.
Best for:
Custom homes, major remodels, and projects where the quality of the whole -- not just the parts -- matters most.
Architectural Design
The design phase sets the terms for everything that follows. Done well, it gives you a home that responds to its site, a budget you can trust, and a team that understands the vision from day one. Done poorly, it gives you surprises.
Perch Customs designs in-house as well as alongside trusted architecture partners when collaboration benefits a project. We hold design and construction together, so your design decisions are tested against real-world constraints before they become problems in the field. You get design shaped by building knowledge so nothing you choose has to be undone later.
Best for:
Custom homes, major remodels, additions, and homeowners in the Columbia River Gorge who want a clear design direction before building.
You receive custom designs for you and your land that have also been thought through by a builder.
Build | General Contracting
You've found the right plans. Now you need a builder who protects them.
Building a custom home in the Columbia River Gorge requires someone who reads a set of plans the way they were written, not as instructions, but as intent.
We manage the full build process: coordinating skilled trades, protecting the timeline, and making the decisions that keep your home true to what you designed. You hear from us before you have to ask. When something changes on site, you know about it immediately, with a clear explanation of what it means and what comes next.
Durability and craft are the standard, not the upgrade. The goal is a home that belongs where it is and holds up beautifully over time.
Best for: New construction, remodels, additions, and homeowners who have a design in hand and need a contractor they can trust to execute it.
