EVERYTHING YOU NEVER KNEW YOU NEEDED

It’s all in the details. You’ve heard it over and over again, but may be wondering what these details are and why you should care. Tailor Built Homes carefully plans these little details into the homes we build (of course, as plans, individual lots and city requirements allow) that make a huge impact on the design, functionality and our buyers’ enjoyment of Tailor Built Homes.

HIDDEN TV CHASE

We know that one of the first things that will be placed in your new home is the TV. To make the process as easy and seamless as possible, we’ve pre-installed a discreet cord chase in both the master suite and the great room that allows you to mount your TV on the wall ...

SPRING CLEANING

Spring is in the air! Daffodils and tulips are in bloom, bringing vibrant color to our otherwise barren landscapes. Allergy season has already begun for some. And, as per usual in Utah, the arm wrestle between warm sunny and cold gloomy days is likely to continue through May. With this week’s forecast being mostly cool and cloudy (at least for now), we’ve decided to focus on cleaning techniques inside of your home that will make it bright and fresh for spring.

WE ARE TAILOR BUILT HOMES

Tailor Built Homes is not derived from a person or a family name, but rather an ideal that we continuously strive for. It is what sets us apart from other Utah home builders.

the HOLLAND: Why We Love It, and Know You Will Too

Before closing on a home in Salt Lake City on Wednesday, we went through and took some photos for our gallery (side note: if you’re looking for an AMAZING photographer that will capture and enhance the beauty of your home, check out Jed with Mouve Media). This home is the HOLLAND floor plan and with its functional layout, stunning design and so many customizable options, it’s no wonder that we haven’t had this plan go past 4-way without selling yet! Here’s what we love about the HOLLAND:

GOURMET KITCHEN

The 10’ island, gas range, double ovens, and a sink in front of a window overlooking the backyard are just scratching the surface ...
