Peterson Builders, Inc.

Client Testimonial: "Peterson's built our full timber frame home over 15 years ago and we have not regretted that decision for one moment since that time. Additionally, they have done follow-up work on replacing a flower box and trim for an unfinished room. All of their work has been of the highest quality and attention to detail. We highly recommend Petersen Builders."

Peterson Builders, 2024 BALA Silver Award Winner The 2024 Best in American Living™ Awards (BALA) BALA is the building industry’s premier residential design awards program that redefines excellence in design. These awards spotlight the most creative and talented building industry professionals who have elevated the design of homes and communities across North America. This year, we were able to win the National Home Builders Association BALA Silver Award for Best One-of-a-Kind Custom Home 4,001 – 5,000 sq. ft. Our project embodies the essence of what the BALA Awards stand for—innovation, creativity, and excellence in residential design. From the outset, we were committed to creating a home that not only meets the functional needs of the homeowners but also reflects a bold, modern aesthetic that harmonizes with its natural surroundings. This custom home showcases the seamless integration of challenging site conditions with architectural ingenuity, highlighted by a dramatic bridge entry and a floating mono-stringer steel staircase. The use of innovative materials and construction techniques, such as a suspended concrete slab walkway and radiant heated floors, demonstrates our commitment to pushing the boundaries of residential design. Every detail was meticulously crafted, from the large waterfall kitchen island to the custom iron railings, ensuring that the home stands as a testament to quality craftsmanship. Our ability to overcome significant challenges, including unforeseen site conditions and evolving design requirements, further underscores why this project deserves recognition as the best custom home in 2024.

"Build me a place that screams home, warmth, farmhouse, and family."

Client Testimonial: "Peterson Builders built the 2018 Northern Wasatch Parade of Homes People's Choice WINNER "New England Charm!" I get to brag on Peterson because they built the home of our dreams in the beautiful Ogden Valley. We were looking for a builder to do a custom home build for us that would encapsulate everything that we were looking for. My wife being from New England had her heart set on an original or classic style farmhouse that would be reminiscent of her childhood. From our first impression of meeting with Jason Peterson they gave us the confidence that not only could they deliver our vision but they would also do it right. We bid out the project and selected Peterson from two other prominent builders that build in the valley because we felt like they were the most detail-oriented, aligned with our passion and goals for the project and within the scope of our budget. The experience of working with them through the project was phenomenal! They were really attentive in answering our questions, solving problems (which are too numerous to list), meeting deadlines as best they could to even installing an original barn door from my wife's grandfather's barn from the state of Maine complete with original hardware. Above all, you could really tell that Peterson and everyone that works for them (trades included) really cared about our project. Now when I walk through the home I can't help but think of the wonderful memories my family will create there. More than building a house, they built for us a home that we will cherish! I can't recommend Peterson Builders enough as a custom home builder and remodeler."

How Will These New Tariffs Affect the Home Building Industry? As of March 11, 2025, the United States has implemented significant import tariffs affecting various goods: Steel and Aluminum Tariffs: On February 10, 2025, President Trump announced a 25% tariff on all steel and aluminum imports, effective March 12, 2025, removing previous exemptions. On March 11, 2025, President Trump escalated measures by increasing tariffs on Canadian steel and aluminum imports to 50%, effective immediately. Other Goods: On February 1, 2025, President Trump signed orders imposing 25% tariffs on all exports from Mexico and all Canadian exports except oil and energy, which are taxed at 10%. Cost Increases on Key Materials Steel: Used in structural framing, rebar for concrete foundations, and even high-end design elements like custom staircases or large window frames. The 25-50% tariffs will push these costs up. Aluminum: Frequently found in high-end windows, doors, and decorative elements — critical for custom homes with large glass panels or modern architectural features. With these increased prices in materials, many of industry professionals will have to find alternative materials that are locally sourced to mitigate the tariff. It will be interesting to see how this ripples the industry.
