Plan your home with realistic pricing, steady communication, and hands-on project oversight from the first conversation through the final walkthrough and warranty period.
Proudly Serving Willis, Texas

Homeowners can enjoy boating, fishing, hiking, and camping while still living roughly an hour from Downtown Houston.
Wonderview builds custom homes and completes large-scale remodeling projects throughout Willis and the surrounding Montgomery County area. Whether you already own acreage, are planning to replace an older home, or are still looking for the right property, we’ll help you understand what the project will require.
From design and pricing through construction, move-in, and warranty, we keep the budget visible, manage the details closely, and stay accountable for the work.
Our Home Building Process
A custom home or remodel involves hundreds of decisions, and the earlier those decisions are connected to the budget, the smoother the project can be. Wonderview stays involved during planning and design to identify potential cost issues before construction begins.
Here’s the process you can expect when building with us:
- Initial Conversation
- Proposal With a Rough Cost Range
- Preconstruction Retainer
- Design With One of Our Architects or Yours
- Design Approval
- Final Line-Item Budget and Construction Agreement
- Construction, Final Walkthrough, and Warranty Support
You may bring an architect or existing plans, or work with one of our preferred architectural partners. Once the design and detailed pricing are complete, we finalize the construction agreement and prepare the project for the build phase.
Every Wonderview home includes a 10-year structural warranty and a 1-year labor warranty.
FAQs About Building and Remodeling in Willis, TX
- How much does it cost to build a custom home in Willis, TX?expand_more
-
Our custom homes in Willis and Montgomery County generally range from $400,000 to $5 million, or about $200 to $400 per square foot, with land priced separately. The total cost depends on your home’s size, design, site preparation, utilities, engineering, permits, and finish selections.
We create a line-item budget once the design and property requirements are clear, so you know the final number before construction starts.
- How long does it take to build a custom home in or near Willis?expand_more
-
Most custom homes take 12 to 18 months to complete from the initial conversation to move-in day. That includes three to five months for design and permitting prior to construction.
The exact timeline depends on your home’s size and complexity, site conditions, approvals, weather, and material lead times. We’ll give you a more accurate timeline during the proposal phase.
- Do I need permits to build or remodel a home in Willis?expand_more
-
Yes, most new construction and substantial remodeling work in Willis will require permits and inspections. The specific approvals depend on the property’s location and the scope of work.
Projects inside Willis city limits are handled through the City of Willis, while properties in unincorporated Montgomery County may be subject to county development and floodplain requirements. Wonderview helps identify the applicable requirements and coordinates permitting as part of the project-management process.
- Can Wonderview build a custom home on land I already own?expand_more
-
Yes. We build custom homes on privately owned land in Willis and throughout the surrounding Montgomery County area. You can come to us with your own plans or collaborate with one of our preferred architects.
We’ll also evaluate the property’s access, utilities, setbacks, drainage, floodplain conditions, grading, and preparation needs to make sure the design works with your land, budget, and timeline.
- How much does a large home remodel cost in Willis, TX?expand_more
-
Large remodeling projects in Willis can vary significantly based on how much of the home is being changed. Kitchen and bathroom renovations with Wonderview often fall between $75,000 and $200,000, while whole-floor remodels may cost more because they can affect framing, plumbing, electrical systems, HVAC, and finishes throughout the space.
Rather than relying on a generic estimate, our team reviews your home's existing conditions, planned changes, and material selections to provide a detailed price for your remodeling project.
- What should I consider before building on my lot in Willis?expand_more
-
Before building on your lot in Willis, consider access, utilities, drainage, floodplain requirements, soil conditions, trees, setbacks, and any deed restrictions. These site factors can affect both the design and total project cost, so they should be evaluated early.
