We Listen. We Communicate. We Build.

We Listen

Every great home begins with listening. Tell us what you envision, how you want to live, and what matters most to you. We will work with you to develop a home that reflects your lifestyle, needs, and budget.

We Communicate

Communication is an important part of our building process. We stay in close contact throughout construction so you remain informed, involved, and confident every step of the way.

We Build

At MFB, quality is never an afterthought. We use quality materials and trusted subcontractors, exceed local building codes, and carefully manage every phase of construction so you can enjoy your home with confidence for years to come.

“Kudos to MFB for the continued efforts to build high-quality homes. They built our house and were absolutely amazing to work with. Mitch and Will are very knowledgeable in the industry and strive to satisfy all your needs. The construction crews are all led by extremely talented craftsmen, and their workers are excellent. They offer everything a new homeowner desires: a fair price, an exceptional product with quality materials. and superb craftsmanship. I highly recommend Mitch Feikes Builders, Inc. for your next project.”

How Our Process Works

From your first sketch to move-in day, here’s what building a custom home with MFB looks like.

1. Start With A Floor Plan

Choose a floor plan as your starting point, then make it your own. Mark up the changes you want so we can see exactly what you have in mind.

2. Design Around Your Budget

We meet to talk through your must-haves and any add-ons. Every item is priced line by line, so you see your total and can adjust until the home fits your price point.

3. Finalize Specifications

Together, we confirm the specifications for your home, from the concrete footings to the final trim and paint.

4. Select Your Finishes

We connect you with samples and trusted representatives to choose your interior finishes, handling any changes through a simple change order.

5. Sign Your Contract

Once the design, pricing, and specifications are set, we put everything in a clear contract so you know what to expect.

6. Build, Inspect & Close

We manage construction, inspections, and closing, and we honor the statutory warranties required under Indiana law.

We incorporate proven energy-saving materials and building practices, including cellulose insulation, Low-E ENERGY STAR® windows, high-efficiency heating and cooling systems, and construction designed to meet or exceed applicable energy codes.

The result is a home designed for year-round comfort, lower energy consumption, and long-term value.
