Frequently asked questions

What areas does Ridgecrest Designs serve?

Ridgecrest Designs is a design-build firm serving the East Bay's Tri-Valley and surrounding communities, including Pleasanton, Danville, Alamo, San Ramon, Walnut Creek, Lafayette, Orinda, Moraga, Dublin, and Sunol.

What is design-build, and how is Ridgecrest different?

Design-build means one team designs and constructs your home, so architecture, interiors, and construction stay accountable to a single point of contact. Ridgecrest has been designing and building custom East Bay homes since 2008, holds five-star ratings across Google, Houzz, and Yelp, and has been featured in California Home + Design. Because our designers also build, every detail is resolved in photorealistic renderings before construction begins.

How much does it cost to build a custom home in the East Bay?

As a general guide, custom homes in the East Bay run about $400 to $600 per square foot to build, and about $400 to $600 per square foot to finish. Your actual cost depends on the site, the city and county, and the specifics of the design, so we provide a detailed estimate once we understand your project.

How long does a custom home take?

On average, plan on about a year to plan and design, and about a year to build. Timelines vary with the site, the city and county, and the complexity of the design.

Does Ridgecrest handle remodels as well as new custom homes?

Yes. Alongside ground-up custom homes, Ridgecrest designs and builds whole-home remodels, additions, kitchens, bathrooms, and interior design projects across the East Bay.
