Custom Homes

Owning a home in New York's Capital District is one of the true joys in life, but having a home built to your specifications by a custom home builder can be one of the best experiences you will ever have in your life or one of the worst nightmares if you don't choose the right builder!

Having a home built strictly for you, designed by an architect of your choice and completed by a professional home builder well versed in the skills and arts of managing your entire project can be wonderful. From meeting with the architect to sitting down to hone in on all the fine details that make a custom home construction so rewarding, each of those experiences goes into creating the home of your dreams.

Home Additions

Home additions are a great way to add more room to your home and increase your home's value. If you love your existing home but need additional space for a growing family or a changing lifestyle, consider an addition. This can greatly add to your comfort of living and value of your home.

Kitchen or bedroom additions are popular kinds of room additions, however, there are other choices like a new master suite, finishing a bonus room or an in-law addition. Extra bedrooms can make a huge difference in the comfort of a growing family. And having a roomier kitchen is one of those things that when you experience it, you will wonder how you ever lived without it.

Handicap Accessible Homes

If you need a handicap accessible home built for you and your family in the greater Capital District please consider using us for your home construction. A handicap accessible home design is a very special construction project because in addition to the regular aspects of new custom home construction, there are the additional steps needed to design and build a beautiful home which is ADA compliant.

The Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) was enacted in 1990 and among the policies it outlined, it contains a set of standards for construction of commercial buildings to ensure that they are accessible and usable by people with disabilities. These standards were never extended to new residential construction; however, Jeff Almstead Builders has built numerous ADA compliant residences in the Greater Capital District over the years.

An ADA home design which is completed by an architect has a particular set of characteristics in place in the plans. Whether the special needs are for an accessible home to be designed with a single floor, or the aesthetics of installing a wheelchair ramp with the exact slope required, we have the experience in the construction of handicapped accessible homes.
