Custom Home Building & Remodeling in Henderson, Texas
Designing and building homes with care across Rusk County, backed by three decades of experience.
Design-Build Solutions for Henderson Homes
Building a custom home involves hundreds of decisions, and many of them begin long before construction. You may have a clear picture of your kitchen or how you'd like the house to look from the driveway, but there are still floor plans to develop and construction costs to consider. At Bort Custom Homes, we work through those decisions with you as part of one continuous design-build process.
Our company began with Gary Bort's residential design practice in 1994. As he expanded into construction, he found that remaining involved throughout the project allowed him to bring his designs to life with greater attention to the details that mattered to his clients. That approach continues today, with Gary and his sons personally involved in the homes we build.
You'll work with our team to develop your plans, review detailed 3D renderings, and explore material selections. We'll also discuss your construction budget as the design takes shape, so you can make adjustments while there's still time to consider different possibilities. Once construction begins, we continue working together, answering questions and helping you navigate decisions as your home progresses.
For Henderson homeowners planning a new custom home or substantial renovation, our goal is to make the experience both personal and collaborative.

Building a custom home gives you the opportunity to start with a blank sheet of paper. Every floor plan, exterior detail, and material selection is chosen specifically for your family, your property, and the way you want to live.
At Bort Custom Homes, design is part of the process from day one. We help homeowners evaluate their land, develop floor plans, create 3D renderings, and make informed decisions before construction begins. The result is a home that fits both the property and the people who live there.

Not every home needs to be replaced. In many cases, the right renovation can improve the way a home functions while preserving the location and character homeowners already love.
Bort Custom Homes specializes in large-scale remodeling projects, including additions, kitchen renovations, whole-home updates, and major reconfigurations. We help homeowners evaluate what's possible, develop a plan, and make design decisions before construction begins. That preparation helps create a smoother project and a more predictable outcome.

A commercial renovation should do more than update the appearance of a space. It should improve how the business operates day to day.
Bort Custom Homes works with business owners to renovate offices, retail spaces, and other commercial properties throughout East Texas. Our team helps plan the project, coordinate construction, and minimize disruptions whenever possible. The goal is a finished space that supports your business and leaves a strong impression on customers, clients, and employees.
How the Bort Team Manages Your Project
It's easy to fall in love with a particular floor plan or architectural feature. We want you to be able to explore those possibilities while understanding what they'll mean for your construction budget. That's why we bring our building experience into the design process from the beginning.
We'll develop your plans in-house, review the layout with you, and create realistic 3D renderings to help you see the finished spaces. As the design takes shape, we can discuss specific features and make adjustments based on your priorities. Our detailed estimates include defined allowances, and our cost-plus pricing gives you visibility into the expenses associated with building your home.
By the time construction begins, we'll have worked through the major design decisions together. Our team remains involved as the project progresses, helping you understand any changes that come up and how they'll affect the work. We take this same careful approach to custom homes and substantial renovations throughout Henderson and Rusk County.

In The Words of Our Clients
I cannot say enough good things about Gary and this company. I had a specific vision of what I wanted and they were able to perfectly capture it. We wanted to go more of an old world design route and Gary made my ideas a reality. The communication with them was easy and we received house plans very quickly. I don't plan to ever build again, but if we do we'll definitely use them.
Charity Stone
We were looking for someone to design our forever home. We reviewed several companies as well as Bort and Design. We finally found a company that would listen to our wants and needs to guide us through the process of the design. We also chose this company for our builder. The outcome was more than we expected and we're very happy that we chose this company.
Doreen Cimilluca
My wife and I had a great experience using Bort Design for the design and construction of our custom home. Gary and Michael were great to work with and gave us insight on improvements that made our home even better than expected. I would highly recommend them for your custom home design and construction. It was truly a wonderful experience to have known and worked with them.
William Beasley
Gary and his team are top-notch. We were told they are highly specialized professionals in home remodeling, and they absolutely lived up to that reputation. They completed our project years ago, yet they still take every call and respond to texts whenever we have questions or need help. It has truly been a blessing to work with them.
