Home Building in Kuna
Building new in Boise usually means working with what is already there. Census estimates for 2020–2024 put the median Boise home at 1986 vintage, and about 64% of the city's housing is detached single-family, so many projects here are infill lots or additions to established houses. Boise Construction Co handles design, engineering, permitting with the city, and construction under one design-build contract, with a written line-item scope before the foundation is poured.

Neighborhoods and lots we build on in Boise
We build throughout Boise, including North End, Bench, Downtown, East End, Southwest Boise. Lots vary block by block in setbacks, utilities, soil, and slope, so we evaluate the specific parcel before we price the home rather than applying a flat square-foot number.
As a local team familiar with Boise landmarks like Idaho State Capitol, Boise River Greenbelt, Table Rock, we understand the area's character and how to design a home that fits its street and holds its value.
Permits and planning in Boise
Permits inside Boise city limits come from the City of Boise Planning and Development Services. Addresses outside city limits go through the county instead; we check this for you at the first visit.

Our Boise designs also account for the local semi-arid climate with four distinct seasons, from insulation levels and window specification to a building envelope and exterior materials that hold up to freeze-thaw cycles.
Common questions
Frequently asked questions
Four kinds of new-home work: blank-page custom homes, semi-custom homes adapted from an existing plan, builds on a lot you already own, and shop homes. Design and lot evaluation can also be hired on their own, which helps on Boise infill parcels where setbacks and utilities need checking before anyone commits to a plan.
Yes. P5 Home Co LLC, Idaho Registered Contractor #8381215, bonded and insured, and our Idaho contractor registration details are yours on request. That matters here: the City of Boise homeowner guide says anyone other than the owner who performs permitted trade work must be registered and licensed with the State of Idaho.
Three ways: call (208) 477-1169, request a quote, or book the free planning consultation on our website. Have the Boise address handy, because we review the parcel's setbacks, utilities, soil, and slope before putting a price on the house.
Yes. Boise is inside our Treasure Valley service area, from the North End to the Bench. Custom, semi-custom, and build-on-your-lot homes are all available here, and we'll evaluate a Boise lot for you before purchase. Our Harris Ranch and Hidden Springs guides cover two planned communities on the Boise side of the valley.
Ada County. Inside city limits, permits run through the City of Boise's Planning and Development Services; property outside city limits follows the Ada County process. Our Ada and Canyon County permit-flow page compares how the two counties handle it.
A building permit and the trade permits, plus an erosion and sediment control (ESC) permit for any new one- or two-family dwelling. Boise's homeowner guide also sets frost depth at 24 inches minimum below grade where a foundation to frost depth is required. We confirm those submissions and inspections for your scope and account for them in the schedule.
Often. About 42% of Boise homes were built before 1980 (Census ACS 2020–2024), and an addition has to tie into the existing framing, the existing utilities, and the way the household already lives. In a Boise historic district, windows, siding, and similar exterior work also need a Certificate of Appropriateness from Planning before the building permit, per the city's homeowner guide.
