Meet the Family Behind Your New Custom Home

Douglas Erdley LLC Custom Homes is a family-owned builder based in Ford City, PA, serving Mars and the wider Butler County region. Three generations of the family have worked in this trade, and that history shapes how we run every project. You work directly with people who have been building homes here for decades, not with a call center or a crew you have never met.

As a new custom home builder that families can reach by phone, we keep communication short and personal. The same team that walks your lot with you stays involved from the first inspection through the final walkthrough. Learn more about our company on our about page.

How Your New Custom Home Gets Started in Mars

Every new custom home starts with a conversation about your property, your budget, and your timeline. Here is how the process typically works:

  1. Call (724) 763-3692 or use our contact page to set up an initial consultation.
  2. Walk the lot with our team to talk about access, slope, and how the home could sit on the property.
  3. Review plans and specifications, with cost-saving recommendations where they make sense.
  4. Move into construction with hands-on supervision and quality checks at each phase.
  5. Finish with a final inspection, punch list, and owner walkthrough before handoff.

Our goal is a turn-key home that is built once and built right.

Building Near Mars Takes Local Know-How

Mars sits along the Route 228 and I-79 corridor in a busy part of Butler County, and that affects how a build is planned. Surrounding areas such as Adams Township and Middlesex Township have seen steady residential growth. That often means tighter lot placement, established neighborhood guidelines, and a more active permitting process than you may find in rural parts of the county.

Working with a new custom home builder serving Mars, PA, that neighbors have relied on can help you avoid delays. Our team has built in this region long enough to understand how local review works, so we can plan the schedule around it.
