About Us
If you like a company that's big enough to provide stability yet small enough that you can make decisions and move fast, Engelsma Homes is the place for you. We are a custom home builder that has been serving West Michigan for over 20 years. We transform lives and landscapes by creating extraordinary homes where every detail reflects our commitment to excellence, innovation, and meaningful connection. Our office and production area are tucked back in the woods where we can be inspired by the beauty of the landscape. And our talented and dedicated team members describe our culture as driven, supportive, and rewarding. That makes sense because "team first" and "drive to get things done" are two of our core values. We feel the combination of great people and culture are a key factor in creating beautiful spaces our clients love.
