I'm not in the construction industry...but as a designer and in the marketing mode right now, look for a name that would drive the normal Joe to know you are professional.

We've all heard the term "branding", in the mid 70's when I started my company I made the decision to put my own personal name "Allan Edwards" on my homes and company. I certainly would not want to oversell the brand of my name in my market place, I live in a city of 4 million, but there is some merit to it. If you can associate your name to whatever product you are trying to deliver, people will make that association.

Riiiing

GC: Everday Homes.

Cust: Do you guys build homes?

GC: Yep, sure do.

Cust: What kind of homes do you build?

GC: We build the best Everyday home your money can buy.

Cust: How much are we talking about?

GC: Depends on how much you have to spend.

Cust: What's special about your homes?

GC: Our homes are ordinary homes. That's what makes them special.

Cust: If I buy two, will they both be special?

GC: Yep, they'll be the most special ordinary Everday home money can buy.

Cust: So what you're telling me is that you build plain homes for custom prices.

GC: No, we build Everday homes for custom prices.

Cust: Have you built any homes yet?

GC: Well, we've planned to build some.

Cust: I see. I sure would like to see an example of the homes you build.

GC: Well, try closing your eyes and imagining an ordinary Everday home. That's what they're gonna look like.

Cust: Where'd you get the name "Everday Homes".

GC: A general contractor in Dallas suggested we use it.

Cust: Does he build custom homes?

GC: Sure does. We've heard he's very good.

Cust: Do you have his name and number?

GC: Yep.

Cust: Can you give it to me?

GC: Sure. When you call him, tell him you got the number from Everday Homes. He helps us if we send him referrals.

'Duobuilt Homes'? 'Duotex Construction'?
'Buildersē'? If they used that last one, they could work a builders' square into the logo...

Best lil' construction co. in Texas

And seriously, why not just hyphen their last names, e.g. Smith-Edwards Construction?

I had a Landscape company named "Traditions". For southern home construction hoow about "Southern Signature" or "Southern Signatures" or "Signature South"... sounds classy to me, which would reference custom and semi custom homes. Jason
