The build, step by step

  1. Step 1 of 5

    Weeks 1 to 4. Site prep and foundation.

    • A soil test and an engineered slab plan before we break ground.
    • Post-tension slab, poured and checked by an independent engineer.
    Helion job site: rebar in the foundation trenches, a concrete mixer truck behind
    Week 2, the slab is poured.
  2. Step 2 of 5

    Weeks 5 to 10. Framing and exterior.

    • Engineered lumber framing, straight and square.
    • House wrap, windows, then brick or fiber-cement siding, your choice.
    Helion job site: a crew member seen from behind works on a wall from the scaffolding
    Week 7, the walls go up.
  3. Step 3 of 5

    Weeks 11 to 14. Roof and dry-in.

    • Architectural shingles with a 30-year warranty, standing-seam metal as an option.
    • Seamless gutters and downspouts.
    Helion job site: two carpenters set the roof trusses
    Week 12, the roof is on.
  4. Step 4 of 5

    Weeks 15 to 26. Mechanicals, drywall and finishes.

    • You pick every finish in our design center before we start.
    • HVAC, electrical and plumbing rough-ins, each passed by the city inspector, then signed off with you.
    Helion job site: two installers seen from behind work beside a new window
    Week 16, the last windows and doors are in.
  5. Step 5 of 5

    Week 27. Keys in hand.

    • A final walkthrough two weeks before closing.
    • Your keys, the full paperwork and your warranties.
    A hand passes the keys in front of a Helion house with a yellow door
    Week 27, the house is yours.

What they remember, once the keys were in hand.

  • “The schedule they gave us held to the week. We knew what to look for at every visit.”

    Emily and Jake, Round Rock, moved in March 2026

  • “The price we signed is the price we paid. Not one extra line at the end.”

    Marcus, Pflugerville, moved in November 2025

  • “Choosing everything in the design center saved us a lot of second-guessing. The house looks like the plans.”

    Sofia and Daniel, Georgetown, moved in June 2026
