About Us

The Prestige Difference

Since 1981, home owners and design professionals have turned to Jeff and Teresa Santerre and the team at Prestige Custom Builders for award-winning custom homes and residential remodels.

Earning and keeping our clients' trust has fueled our success. We've assembled a select in-house team and established relationships with some of Seattle's top architects, designers, tradespeople and artisans. Our offices are located in the Seward Park neighborhood of Seattle.

For People who are Passionate about their Homes.

We're dedicated to helping you get what you want from your home. Our proven approach means consistent results and happy clients.

Start with Honesty

It begins right up front with our initial project evaluation, which will be thoughtful, meaningful, and real. We don't believe in providing clients with a best case "estimate." It's too important to get this right from the very start. We work hard to create a thorough, honest and comprehensive assessment of your project from the very beginning. By working transparently we help you avoid surprises.

Consistency and Experience

When you hire Prestige Custom Builders, you don't have to cross your fingers and hope for the best. It's going to be good. For 28 years we've been steering projects big and small from inspiration to successful completion.

That's why we were awarded the coveted People's Choice Award for Remodeling Excellence.

The Team Build Approach

There are three key players on the leadership team for every project: your designer, your builder, and you.

We assemble a unique management team for every project. That's how we consistently deliver a more responsive, attentive client experience. We have established partnerships with many of Seattle's most respected designers and architects, so we can help you choose the right architect and designer, matching you with professionals who understand your vision and share your goals.

The First Step is a Solid Plan

No matter where you are in the process we can help. Whether your vision is sketched on the back of a cocktail napkin, or you've already engaged an architect and are ready to build, we can help you put a smart plan in place, and we know how to implement it.

When plans change, we know how to adapt. Our goal is always minimum disruption to you and your family. That's why so many of our clients return, job after job, and invite us back into their homes.

Great Communication

We're dedicated to complete transparency throughout the life of the project.

Your site leader operates from a compact, high-tech field office on the project site. There they have everything they need to manage the project.

Regular, on-site meetings ensure you'll never wonder what your budget is, or how your schedule stands. You'll always know where to turn with questions throughout the process.

Thorough communication is not just our business philosophy, it's who we are.

Sustainability

In 2008 Prestige Custom Builders won the Built Green Choice Award. We've been building sustainably since before it was fashionable - for your health, and for our environment. Because it's not a construction site. It's your home.

Uniquely Proactive Follow-Ups

We call it proactive warranty support. Seattle Homes & Lifestyles says we "set the industry standard."

Our unique Home Services Department is a full-time team dedicated to your continued comfort and happiness. In the months and years after construction is finished, they'll follow up, ask you questions, and visit your home. They're highly skilled and eager to help.

Home Services have been so popular that we've extended the team to offer customized home services to clients who have never hired Prestige Custom Builders before.
