Our story

Meet Matt and Shannon

Dutton Custom Homes is Matt and Shannon Dutton and their three kids. The family moved to Prescott Valley almost seven years ago, and from the day they arrived, Matt set out to build here. He earned his Arizona contractor license and started building homes in the place they chose to live and love.

Matt brings more than 30 years in construction to every job. He runs each project himself, so the person you meet on your lot is the person who sends your updates and walks the finished home with you. There's no sales rep who hands you off after you sign.

Shannon is an interior designer and a licensed Arizona REALTOR®. If you choose to work with her, she can help you bring the inside of your home together, from cabinets, counters and tile to lighting and color, so the finished house feels as considered as the way it was built.

What we believe

How we work

Straight communication

Regular updates, real answers and one person to call. You never have to chase your builder to find out what's happening.

Transparent pricing

A line-item bid and cost sheet before you sign, and clear paperwork for any change along the way.

Local and licensed

Licensed with the Arizona Registrar of Contractors, ROC 337430, and building right here in Yavapai County.

Family-run

The name on the door

A family name means something in a town this size. It's the reason we keep the work close and answer our own phone. Every home we build has to be one we'd be glad to drive past for the next thirty years.

We build where we live, and we know what it takes to put a house on this ground: the granite, the slopes, the snow, the monsoon and the wildfire rules. We keep our project list small on purpose, so every client gets real attention, and you'll see us at the store after the job is done. We like it that way.

We're friendly, down-to-earth and easy to reach. That's how we'd want to be treated if we were building, so it's how we treat every client.

Built With a Name Behind It.

Who you'll work with

Matt runs every job and is your one point of contact. He brings in trusted trades for each stage and stays on the project until the final walk-through. If you'd like design help, Shannon offers interior design as a separate service you can choose. See her work on our interior design page. If you have a designer or architect you like, Matt will work with them directly. If you're not sure where to start, that's fine too. Many of the people we work with have never built a home, and we'll walk you through each step as it comes.
