Build On Your Land

Understand Your Site Before You Spend on Plans

A rural homesite may raise questions about utilities, access, grading, drainage, septic, driveways, and preparation. A neighborhood lot may involve HOA rules, setbacks, permitting, and architectural standards. Mcilrath Properties helps you see those constraints clearly before construction begins.

If you are still choosing a lot, involve the builder early. Understanding what utilities, setbacks, soils, or HOAs imply for cost beats discovering it after earnest money.

What Mcilrath Properties Looks at On Your Property

Every homesite affects cost, timeline, and design choices. This is how we orient the conversation so your plan stays buildable.

Site Access & Driveway

Can construction equipment reach the build site? What will a driveway cost?

Utilities at the Road

Is power, water, or natural gas available? What about connecting to the grid?

Septic & Drainage

Will you need a septic system? How does the land drain after rain?

Grading & Dirt Work

Is the land level, sloped, or wooded? What site prep is needed before building?

Restrictions & Zoning

Are there deed restrictions, HOA guidelines, setbacks, or county regulations?

Soil & Foundation Type

What type of soil is on your property? This affects your foundation design and cost.

Renovations & Restorations

Exceptional Homes, Beautifully Reimagined

Mcilrath Properties renovates kitchens, bathrooms, and whole homes, adds the room you are missing, and restores storm-damaged houses across Greenville, Rockwall, and Northeast Texas. Every renovation begins with a walkthrough of the home's layout, foundation, and budget before any work is scheduled.

Whole Home & Additions

When a house has good bones but a dated floor plan, we open sightlines, rework the layout, and update finishes and systems. Need more house, not a different one? We add the primary suite, office, garage, or full second story.

FAQ

Common Questions About Our Services

Both. Mcilrath Properties is a custom home builder and a renovation contractor. We renovate kitchens, bathrooms, and whole homes, build room and second-story additions, and restore storm and insurance-damaged houses across Rockwall, Hunt, and Collin counties.
Typical Northeast Texas market ranges in 2026 run about $35,000 to $65,000 for a mid-grade kitchen and $12,000 to $30,000 for a bathroom. Those are market ranges, not a Mcilrath Properties quote. Your price depends on scope, materials, and what the walkthrough finds, and Mcilrath Properties gives you a fixed scope and fixed price before any work begins.
Yes. Mcilrath Properties repairs and rebuilds storm and water-damaged homes and works alongside your insurance claim so the house comes back right, not just patched. Roof damage left alone sends water straight against the foundation, so we restore the damage and stop the next round.
Usually, yes. Cracks in drywall, doors that will not latch, and sloping floors are common signs of foundation movement on Blackland clay. Mcilrath Properties assesses the foundation during the walkthrough and tells you before you spend on finishes that would only crack again.
In Texas, updating the inside of your home generally does not trigger a property reappraisal on its own. Adding square footage can, which is why Mcilrath Properties plans additions with your budget and your appraisal in mind.
Mcilrath Properties is based in Greenville, Texas and serves Rockwall, Hunt County, Royse City, Caddo Mills, McKinney, Farmersville, Poetry, Bonham, Sulphur Springs, and the surrounding East Texas communities.
