What we build
Services
Alpha Homes takes on the projects that need a real crew and a real plan: new homes, whole-home remodels, kitchens and basements.

Custom Homes
A new house on the lot you love.
New builds and teardown rebuilds on the east bench. Foothill lots come with slope, fault and wildfire rules, and Tanner walks the lot with you before anything is drawn.
- New homes and teardown rebuilds
- Engineering and geotechnical coordination
- Permits and inspections with your city
"Every time, they show up, tell the truth about what's possible, and follow through."

Whole-Home Remodeling
More than one room, on one plan.
Two bathrooms at once, the kitchen plus the main floor, or the whole house. One crew builds it in the right order, so the finishes match and you are not chasing five contractors.
- Primary baths and bathroom conversions
- Main floors, stairs, trim and built-ins
- One permit set, one schedule, one point of contact
"Tanner was able to keep timelines (very rare for a contractor)"

Kitchen Remodeling
The kitchen everyone ends up standing in.
Open up the old layout, then new cabinets, stone counters, tile and lighting. When a wall has to come out, we handle the beam, the plans and the permit. Kitchens are often where a bigger remodel starts.
- Wall removal and open layouts
- Cabinets, islands and stone counters
- Lighting, plumbing and electrical moved where you need it
"We could not be happier with the way our kitchen turned out."

Basement Finishing
Turn bare concrete into the best floor in the house.
Bedrooms, a bathroom, a wet bar, a theater or a full apartment. Our crew frames it, runs the plumbing, wiring and heat, gets it inspected and finishes it. A bare 2,000 sq ft basement usually takes about three weeks.
- Bedrooms with code-legal egress windows
- Bathrooms, bars, theaters and gyms
- Basement apartments where your city allows them
"The space looks elegant, well thought out, and far exceeded our expectations."

Why people call Tanner
Your basement, finished in about half the time.
Most contractors quote 6 to 8 weeks to finish a basement. Tanner's crew usually takes a bare 2,000 sq ft basement to finished in about 3. That is half the time or less, and it is the reason customers kept sending their friends.
Fast does not mean rushed. The crew, the subs and the city inspections are lined up before day one, so nobody waits on anybody.
One walkthrough
Tanner walks the space with you, talks through what you want, and puts one clear price in writing.
Permit and schedule
We draw it up, pull the city permit, and line up the crew and the subs before work starts.
Build it, then walk it
Our own crew frames, runs the rough-ins, passes inspection and finishes. Then we walk it with you.
