D Home Presents

Best Builders
in Dallas

Recognizing outstanding home builders across North Texas.

D Home is thrilled to showcase our city’s outstanding builders with our Best Builders awards. We invite more than 1,000 builders and architects to nominate the best builders in Dallas. The resulting list reflects the companies and individuals who are most respected by their peers.

All winners will be featured in the Summer 2024 issue of D Home.

Nominations Closed

Nominations for next year's program will open January 2025.

Enter your information below to be notified when nominations are open.


The Process

STEP 1

+ NOMINATIONS

D Home asks builders, interior designers, and architects to nominate professionals whose work they feel is the best in Dallas.

Nominating professionals must:

  • Be a builder, interior designer, showroom, or architect
  • Have worked with, or be familiar with the work of, their nominees

STEP 2

+ VETTING PROCESS

Votes are tallied and sorted by D Home’s editorial staff.

The staff does not count:

  • Self-nominations
  • Duplicate ballots
  • Nominations from non-qualifying industry professionals

STEP 3

+ INTERNAL AND EXTERNAL PANEL REVIEW

The remaining votegetters are vetted by an anonymous panel of esteemed members of the building, interior design, and architect community. D Home also conducts an internal review to ensure all feedback and nominees are carefully taken into consideration. All winners must be actively working and maintain a Dallas office.

D Home editors finalize the list by verifying each builder’s:

  • Portfolio, notes from external panelists, and current active status

STEP 4

+ NOTIFICATION

We mail and email congratulations letters to the Best Builders.

After notification, our sales team is allowed to view the list and offer advertising opportunities to winners.

We play fair:

  • Advertising dollars have zero impact on the creation of this list.
  • Best Builders are featured in our Summer issue and marked as a Best Builder in our online directory whether they advertise or not.
