Our History
The journey began in 2003 when Dillard-Jones Builders was founded by Tom Dillard and Bryan Jones, driven by a leap of faith and a shared vision to build homes with authentic craftsmanship.

Quality Control
Our Director of Quality Control conducts monthly site visits to verify that construction aligns with approved plans, specifications, quality standards, and schedule.
A detailed monthly quality report is provided to management, who visit the site the following week to verify that corrective actions have been completed.
A final deep dive of the entire home is conducted prior to move-in.

Build Process
Once plans are finalized, we bring your home to life with precision and care. You’ll receive consistent updates through Buildertrend, on-site walk-throughs, and scheduled touchpoints as your home progresses through each construction milestone.
Best Practices
Money Management
Transparency through all we do (budgets, fees, etc.)
We never commingle funds from one project to another
We work in a variety of contract formats, including lump sum, cost plus, and cost plus fixed fee
Dwell Process
Now that we’ve invested time in understanding what’s important to you and how you move through your designed spaces, we take that insight to the next level of detail. We then layer in furnishings, drapery, bedding, and décor—rediscovering what brings you comfort and what functions best—and translate it all into a tactile, cohesive vision of the complete space.
Dwell with Tribus
After the build is completed, our relationship continues with our lifetime commitment to service what we build. Our clients enjoy seemless completion of punch list and warranty work and typically allow our team to provide turn-key maintenance for ease of ownership.
