Frequently Asked Questions
Whether you're just starting to plan or ready to break ground, here are answers to the questions we hear most from families building with us across Bastrop County.
Dumbeck Custom Homes is a family-owned, award-winning custom home and barndominium builder based in Smithville, TX. For more than a decade, we’ve built custom homes, barndominiums, and metal buildings across Bastrop County and surrounding Central Texas, including the Round Top area.
We build throughout Bastrop, Fayette, and the surrounding counties, including Smithville, Bastrop, Round Top, La Grange, Elgin, and the towns in between, generally within about an hour of Smithville.
Yes, most of our clients already own their land when they contact us, outside of Smithville, Bastrop, or Round Top. If you're still searching for the right property, we're happy to talk through what to look for before you buy.
Every home is priced around your specific plans, finishes, and site conditions. We provide a detailed breakdown during the planning phase so you know exactly what's included before construction begins.
Timelines depend on the size and complexity of the home and current permitting conditions in your area. We'll walk through a realistic schedule with you during your initial consultation.
Yes. A large share of our homes are built on rural acreage, and we regularly work with septic systems, private wells, and other site conditions specific to building outside city limits.
Yes. We build custom barndominiums (barndos) across Bastrop County, from small living spaces attached to a workshop to full barndominium homes built entirely in steel.
A metal building is any structure built with a red iron frame and steel exterior, such as a workshop, barn, or garage. A barndominium is a metal building with living space built into it.
Absolutely. This is one of the most popular reasons families choose to build with us, whether it's a large workshop with a small apartment attached or a full home with an attached shop.
Yes, not every metal building we construct includes living space. We build all-workshop and barn structures just as often as full barndominium homes.
It starts with a conversation. Reach out through our contact form or by phone, and we'll set up an initial consultation to discuss your property, style, finish options, and budget.
As much or as little as you'd like. We conduct several milestone walkthroughs throughout the build to make sure we're meeting all of your wants and needs.
On a limited basis, yes. Alongside our residential custom homes, metal buildings, and barndominiums, we occasionally take on select light commercial projects. Contact us to discuss your project.
