A Partnership of Design and Durability
Kim Makes It Pretty. Mike Makes It Work
We are a husband-and-wife team bringing over 25 years of big-builder rigor and high-end real estate design to Fort Bend County. We don't hide our margins. We don't cut corners on the frame. We build it right, and we hand you the receipts to prove it. We are not just your builders: we are your advocates. Mike has led construction for some of the largest names in the industry since 1999, managing everything from standard builds to 10,000 square foot estates. Kim has held her real estate license since 1996, bringing a sharp eye for market value and functional beauty to every floor plan.

Standards That Exceed the Ordinary
We do not build to the minimum code. Every Hawkeye home is built to Windstorm levels, utilizing advanced Zip System materials for superior weatherproofing and structural integrity. We are proud pioneers of the Fortified building standard in Texas, offering our clients homes that are more resilient and significantly more cost-effective to insure.
Control on Custom Construction
Overcoming the Chaos of Custom Construction
For many, the dream of a custom home becomes a burden when communication fails and budgets creep upward without explanation. This lack of clarity is the primary source of frustration in our industry. We believe that luxury is found in the details, and that includes the financial details. You should never have to guess what you are paying for or if your builder is cutting corners to protect their margin.

Craftsmanship Without Compromise
Why Discerning Homeowners Choose Hawkeye
The Open-Receipt Guarantee
We typically operate on a true "Cost Plus" basis. On every project, we provide an estimate, and you pay the actual cost of materials plus our management fee. If we secure a significant discount on a luxury fixture, those savings are passed directly to you: we never pocket the difference.
Total Financial Accountability
At the conclusion of your build, we provide a full download of our QuickBooks account for the project. You receive a copy of every single receipt for every item put into your home. This level of transparency is rare in construction, but we believe it is the only way to do business.
The Power of Two Perspectives
Our motto is simple, Kim makes it pretty, Mike makes it work. This means your home is vetted for both its aesthetic impact and its mechanical performance. We are personally involved in every shopping trip, every site visit, and every major decision.
Frequently Asked Questions
Homeowner Guidance
Can't find what you're looking for?
What is the "Cost Plus" advantage?
In a traditional fixed-price contract, the builder profits by spending less on your home. In our Cost Plus model, we are incentivized to find the best quality and value for you, as every saving stays in your pocket.
Where does Hawkeye build?
We proudly serve the communities of Rosenberg, Needville, Richmond, Pleak, Thompson, and Sugarland.
How does a Fortified home save me money?
A Fortified home is overbuilt for storm resilience. This certification often leads to a significant reduction in your annual homeowners insurance premiums.
Can you work with my architect?
Yes. We often collaborate with designers and architects early in the process to ensure the plans are optimized for both cost and construction efficiency.
