Three services.
One team.
Zero handoffs.

Custom home builds, remodels and additions, and commercial construction, all designed and built by the same in-house team. That’s the Brightstar difference.

Custom Home Builds

Your home, designed and built by the same team.

Most builders take your architect’s plans and build from them. Brightstar is different — we carry an in-house design team under the same roof as our build crew. The person who draws your floor plan is the same person walking your job site every morning.

No markup on outside architects. No miscommunication between design and construction. No version of your vision getting lost between the two teams. Just your home, built exactly as imagined.

Full architectural design included — no outside firm needed

Site selection and lot evaluation

Permitting and county approvals managed for you

Finishes guidance from our in-house design team

Homes from $250K to $700K+ across Northeast Florida

02
Remodels & Additions

Your home should grow with you.

A kitchen that finally works. A master suite addition that gives you the space you’ve outgrown without. A full-home transformation that makes you feel like you moved without actually moving. Brightstar has done all of it — including a single remodel project valued over $2 million.

Our in-house design team handles the planning. Our build crew handles the execution. You get a single point of contact throughout — no contractor blame games, no design firm that disappears after the plans are drawn.

Commercial Construction

Spaces that perform as well as they look.

Offices, retail spaces, restaurants, and commercial renovations — Brightstar applies the same design-forward approach to every commercial project that we bring to a custom home. Your brand, your workflow, and your client experience all live in the space we build. It needs to be right.

We manage the entire process: design, permits, construction, and final handoff. Brightstar’s commercial work spans projects up to $762,000 in permitted value across Northeast Florida.

Brightstar did a very large renovation of our home and the results are simply amazing. They helped with all phases — design, build, and installation. They did all of this during the Covid pandemic. Truly exceptional.

My husband and I can't thank Rob and his crew enough for restoring our house after Hurricane Matthew. Professional and yet personal. We were clueless as to what needed to be done and Rob helped us through the whole process — with patience.
