How Pricing Works on an East Ridge Build

Every EPG custom home in East Ridge is built on a cost plus fixed fee model. EPG sets its fee up front from the plans and scope, and picking finishes never moves it. If a client upgrades the tile or the lighting package, they pay the actual cost of that upgrade and EPG doesn’t make a dollar more. With a fixed fee, nobody has a reason to push the client toward the more expensive option, so EPG’s advice is just advice based on its understanding of the client’s needs and goals.

Every invoice and receipt shows up in EPG’s online client portal as the house goes up. Added scope, like a bonus room or a detached garage, becomes a change order with its own fixed fee, and the client sees and approves it first.

Full custom isn’t the only option. EPG also has semi custom homes in East Ridge, plus lots in Hummingbird Village that are ready to build. Call or text Evan’s team at 423-646-7540 to talk through which path fits.

A 10 Year Warranty on Every New East Ridge Home

New EPG homes in East Ridge come with a limited 10 year warranty through Quality Builders Warranty (QBW), and EPG Homes holds Tennessee contractor license 69089.
