How We Build in 9-12 Months(When Most Builders Take 18+ Months)

Most custom builders are slow because they're reactive. We're proactive. Here's our proven system: See detailed timeline FAQ →

1

Parallel Workflows

While other builders wait for permits, we're ordering materials. While they're ordering materials, we're scheduling crews. Everything happens simultaneously, not sequentially.

2

Pre-Ordered Materials

We secure materials 60-90 days before groundbreaking. No waiting for lumber, windows, or fixtures. No delays. No excuses.

3

Dedicated Crew Scheduling

We limit builds to 12 per year so our crews aren't stretched thin. Your project gets focused attention, not leftover time.

The Result?

9-12 month builds instead of 18+ months. Move into your dream home in half the time, without sacrificing quality or cutting corners.

Est. 1996 • Family Owned & Operated

Built on Family Values, Proven Through Decades

In 1996, David Wolons founded Dawol Homes in Myrtle Beach, SC with a simple goal: build custom coastal homes people actually want to live in.

When the 2008 recession hit, most builders went bankrupt. We didn't. We kept building, kept our promises, and kept our reputation spotless.

Today, David's daughter Krissy Mauldin leads the company as President. She's bringing new ideas while keeping the values that made us last 30 years.

"We're not the biggest builder. We're the builder that's still here after 30 years—and we'll be here for the next 30."

Common Questions About Building Custom Homes in Myrtle Beach

Get answers to the most common questions from families building their dream homes

How long does it take to build a custom home?

Most of our custom homes are completed in 9-12 months from initial design to move-in. Your timeline depends on design complexity, permitting, and how quickly you make decisions on finishes. We'll give you a realistic timeline upfront—no overpromising.

How much does it cost to build a custom home in Myrtle Beach?

Our custom homes start at $500k (Cottage Series), $600k (Coastal Series), and $700k+ (Estate Series). Your final cost depends on home size, finishes, lot conditions, and customization level. We provide transparent pricing locked in writing—no surprise bills.

Do you build in areas outside Myrtle Beach?

Yes! We build throughout the Grand Strand and Georgetown County, including Carolina Forest, Pawleys Island, Surfside Beach, Murrells Inlet, Litchfield Beach, and rural areas like Conway, Aynor, and Loris. If you have a lot or are looking for one, give us a call and we'll let you know if we can build there.

Can I use my own floor plans or do I have to use yours?

You can do either! About 80% of our clients work with Krissy and our design team to create custom plans. The other 20% bring their own plans or choose from our coastal floor plan library and customize them. We're flexible—whatever works best for you.
