About BCM
Custom Homes

A story of craftsmanship, community, and creating something extraordinary
What started as one family's dream to build their own home has grown into a trusted name in custom home construction throughout the Texas Hill Country.

How It All Began

In 2023, Billy Smith had a simple goal: build a beautiful custom home for his family at a reasonable cost. What he discovered was an opportunity that would change everything.

As friends and neighbors saw the quality and attention to detail in that first project, word spread quickly through the close-knit Boerne community. Before long, what started as a single family project had ‘turned into a monster’ – but the best kind of monster, one built on trust, quality, and genuine relationships.

Billy realized he had found something special: the ability to combine his years of construction experience with a deeply personal approach to custom home building. Unlike large-scale builders who focus on volume and efficiency, BCM Custom Homes was built around a different philosophy – that every family deserves individual attention, exceptional quality, and a builder who treats their project as if it were his own.

Today, with 8-9 active projects and a growing reputation throughout the Texas Hill Country, BCM Custom Homes remains true to its founding principle: building dreams, one family at a time.

Billy Smith

Founder & Owner

Leadership Built on Experience

Billy Smith brings over 10 years of hands-on construction experience to every BCM Custom Homes project. His journey began in Oklahoma, where he apprenticed under an experienced builder and supervised more than 20 custom home builds in the Edmond area. This foundation taught him not just the technical aspects of construction, but the importance of process, attention to detail, and client communication.

Billy’s success extends beyond construction. As the owner of multiple successful businesses, he understands the importance of systems, reliability, and delivering on promises. This business acumen ensures that BCM Custom Homes operates with the professionalism and financial stability that clients deserve when making such a significant investment.

What truly sets Billy apart is his commitment to the Boerne community. This isn’t just where he works – it’s where he lives, where his children attend school, and where he volunteers his time supporting local sports and community events. When you work with BCM Custom Homes, you’re not just hiring a contractor; you’re working with a neighbor who has a personal stake in your satisfaction and the community’s reputation.

Billy’s long-term vision for BCM Custom Homes includes creating something meaningful for the next generation. He’s building a company that his son can potentially join after college – a legacy business rooted in quality, integrity, and community service

In a small town like Boerne, your reputation is everything. We don’t just build houses – we build relationships that last. Every project we complete reflects on our family name and our commitment to this community.
