Good old-fashioned service with a smile and products built to last seemed to have gone by the wayside. At least that's how Owner Travis Cox and his wife, Christina, felt when building their own home years ago. With every meeting, paper signing, and visit to a supplier, Travis and Christina were more and more discouraged with the service and products they were met with. Even worse, there were unanticipated surprises along the way. Extra expenses from subs and suppliers, constant attempts to cut corners, and a general lack of passion for the product. Where, oh where, had all the old-fashioned service gone?
Now, I know what you're thinking - how old is this couple!? Ok, so they weren't around "back in the day", but their parents and grandparents were, and they instilled a strong work ethic, pride in the product, and a genuine care for others in the pair. You leave things better than you found them. You treat others how you want to be treated. You do what you say you're going to do. Period. It's not negotiable. It's the right thing to do.
Travis, a professional in the construction industry, decided enough was enough and started his own company to offer the kind of service and quality he expected (but wasn't always met with!) when he was building his home. Tyton Construction-- named after his two children, Tyler and Payton--was born with the promise that the company would only build "Homes so well-crafted, we'd live in them ourselves!" and would strive to offer the highest quality projects available on the market through superior product selection and meticulous attention to detail while maintaining the highest standard of service in the construction industry.
The Tyton Difference
Travis' dedication to customer service and high-quality products extends into every aspect of the company. As a result, Tyton only offers custom, design-build homes--not spec or tract homes--with the intention of providing a superior product to clients through a personal, service-oriented approach. Spec builds, i.e. homes built on speculation or anticipation of finding a buyer, are generally constructed to appeal to the broader range of homebuyers. Tract homes, in short, are homes built in volume with a selected number of styles or floor plans. They are usually found in batches within a subdivision or development. Since neither spec homes nor tract homes are designed or built for specific buyers, Tyton doesn't build them. Building under those models removes the personal service custom home building offers. With that understanding, Tyton does offer other building services, such as concrete work, accessory builds, remodels, and small commercial projects since each of these offer the same opportunity for personal service.
A cut-no-corners organization, you'll only find top-choice products and meticulous attention to installation of those products on Tyton projects. You'll find Travis on every one of Tyton's job sites, usually doing the installation and construction himself. He refuses to allow poor workmanship permeate the process and ensures maximum quality through careful supervision of subcontractors and a regular presence on-site. If Travis wouldn't have a product or craftsmanship in his own home, he won't allow it in your final product.
Tyton is a small, independently-owned business, and Travis answers the phone himself! If you have questions about your bid or project, you can contact Travis directly at tcox@tytonconstruction.com or 541.206.2148 to have your questions personally answered.
We worked with Quarty Studio for approximately 2 years on the complete overhaul of our house. This included the design of the project, and the execution of the work. Quarty provided excellent design ideas but were also indispensable in managing the practical side of the build.
