My name is Archie Cheatham and I am the owner of Ideal Custom Homes. I would like to offer my sincerest condolences for the fire victims in Bastrop, Steiner Ranch, and all over the state of Texas. Now is a time to hold your memories close and your family even closer.

I can't give you back everything you've lost but I can help you rebuild your home. As an established general contractor in the Austin area, I can lessen your rebuilding burdens by doing everything for you - from clearing debris and demolition all the way to rebuilding your home. That way you can concentrate on your family and making new memories.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to call me personally at 512-784-4393 or to contact any of my references.

In addition, I have added a Texas Wildfires Resources section to my website to help you all find information quickly.

Unfortunately when tragedy strikes a lot of companies and individuals will swarm into the area looking to take advantage of the situation. As a builder/contractor for over 30 years, I've always strived to be honest and fair. I want to build you that "Ideal Custom Home."

I have a standard draw form used by my lender, as long as everyone disburses construction funds on "completed work" based on these percentages they will be reasonably protected from unscrupulous contractors. Once a figure is entered on line #19, "Available For Construction" the amount is distributed by it's appropriate percentage in the far right column for proper payments. You can click on the link for a pdf version of my draw form, if you'd like an excel version of it, This email address is being protected from spambots.

Below is a list of Client, Realtor, and trade references that can attest to my honesty and build quality. Please feel free to contact them and ask about "Archie Cheatham and Ideal Custom Homes."

There are a lot of questions about whether or not your foundation can be salvaged after the fire. The simple answer is "It depends." There are a lot of factors involved in deciding if your foundation can be repaired. I have attached an information sheet written by Rick Roberts of ATS Engineers that lists and answers the top 10 frequently asked questions about rebuilding on your foundation after a fire.

If you are unsure about the condition of your foundation, I (Ideal Custom Homes) am offering a free visual inspection of the foundation once the debris is cleared. 

If the foundation can't be salvaged, Ideal Custom Homes can take care of the demolition, debris removal and clean-up of a 2000 square foot slab for an average of $5800. Click here to view the Ideal Custom Homes average Demolition, Debris Removal, and Cleanpup proposal sheet.
