The Team Behind Texas Living Homes
The Texas Living Homes team brings more than three decades of combined home building experience to every project. As a veteran-owned custom home builder, we believe in the pursuit of excellence at each step of the building process. Our drive to build the highest performing home at the best value pushes us to hold ourselves and our subcontractors accountable to a high quality standard.
That accountability starts with our leadership. Lead builder Nick Beuke guides every home from the first conversation to the final walkthrough, while project manager Gabriel Smith keeps each build running smoothly on site. Gabriel coordinates our trade partners, tracks every detail, and makes sure your schedule and budget stay on course. Together, they bring a hands-on approach that creates a constructive team dynamic and a well-managed project. This means we are able to deliver your custom home on time and on budget, something we are very proud of.
