Expert Custom home design in Chelan, WA

Custom home design in Chelan starts with your vision and ends with a home built around how you actually live. At Upland Builders, we are a family-owned team with a genuine passion for turning ideas into finished spaces. Every layout, room flow, and design detail is shaped around your style, not a stock plan. Chelan sits east of the Cascades, where hot summers, cold winters, and freeze-thaw cycles affect everything from foundation depth to exterior finish choices. Sloped hillside lots, lakefront parcels, and varied glacial soils across the Wenatchee Valley each call for a design approach that fits the land. We work with you from early concept through final selections, making sure the design reflects your taste and performs well in this specific climate. Whether you are planning a primary residence in Chelan, a retreat near Leavenworth, or a family home in Cashmere or Entiat, we bring designer-level thinking to every project. Reach out to start your custom home design conversation with Upland Builders.

My company recently did some work for Riley on one of his projects. He was professional and easy to communicate with. Look forward to working on future projects together.

Jeremy Adams Google review · December 2024

Upland Builders came out to take care of a difficult project on our house. Riley was extremely professional and he went above and beyond to make sure we were happy with the work he did. It turned out perfect! I've dealt with many contractors in the past and this was hands down the best experience I've had. I highly recommend Upland Builders!

Upland Builders is incredible . The owner, Riley is so easy to work with. He listens to what I need. He makes suggestions if I am not sure. He gives the pros and cons and then lets me decide. His skill and his attention to detail are outstanding. Hands down a very good contractor. It is a pleasure working with him.

We were very happy with the end result of our double bathroom remodel. We enjoyed working with Riley and his team. They were always on time, cleanly, and pleasant to be around. Riley brings a sense of calm to what can often be a very overwhelming and hectic process.

Riley did such amazing work that went well beyond our expectations. His attention to detail, patience, and willingness to take our input and requests for the custom features came together fantastically! Exactly what we wanted, with a much better quality than we expected!
