Why Build a Custom Home in Longview or Marshall
East Texas has always done things its own way. While the rest of the state chases growth at any cost, communities like Longview and Marshall have something better: roots. Generations of families have built their lives here, drawn by good jobs, affordable land, and a quality of life that can’t be replicated in a master-planned suburb.
If you’re looking for acreage — real land where you can build the home you’ve always envisioned — East Texas delivers. The pine forests, the rolling terrain, the space to breathe. And unlike the crowded corridors west of here, you won’t pay a premium for every square foot.
Abundant land at a fraction of DFW prices
Strong oil, gas, and manufacturing employment base
Regional healthcare and commercial centers
Deep East Texas heritage and community character
Excellent build-on-your-land opportunities
Far from master-planned subdivision restrictions
"East Texas customers know what they want — a real custom home on land they own, built with quality that lasts. That's exactly what we deliver. Same standards, same craftsmanship, same commitment we bring to every home we build."
— Scott Clements
For customers who value land, privacy, and true custom quality over suburban convenience, Longview and Marshall offer exactly what you're looking for.

YOUR BUILD
Building Your Custom Home in East Texas
Whether you have land in Gregg County, Harrison County, or anywhere in the East Texas region, we’ll help you build exactly the home you want — true custom quality, not a metal building or compromise.
True Custom Quality
This isn’t a metal building with drywall. Every S. Clements Custom Home™ features real wood cabinets, granite countertops, hand-scraped hardwood, and craftsmanship that stands the test of time. If you want a home that’s built to last — and built to impress — you’re in the right place.
Fixed-Price Certainty
At $160 per square foot under roof, you know what you’re paying before we break ground. That price includes premium features other builders charge extra for. And when we say fixed-price, we mean it — if you sign for $450,000, that’s what you pay.
No cost-plus games. No surprise invoices.
25 Years of Building Excellence
Since 2007, S. Clements Homes has built over 2,000 custom homes across Northeast and East Texas. We’ve earned our reputation one family at a time — through honest pricing, quality craftsmanship, and standing behind every home we build.
Same trusted standards across every market we serve.
WHY S. CLEMENTS
What Makes S. Clements Homes Different
In an industry where surprises and hidden fees are the norm, we’ve built our reputation on doing the opposite.
Fixed-Price Contracts
What you sign is what you pay. Period. We don't play
cost-plus games where invoices can be
manipulated.
No Markup on Upgrades
Want better granite? You pay only the difference — not a 25% builder markup. We pass our buying power directly to you.
Payment After Work
We've taken over too many projects from builders who took deposits and disappeared. You don't pay us until we've done the work.
6-Month Build Time
Most custom builders take 18 months. Our proven systems and 20-year subcontractor relationships mean we complete homes in six — without cutting corners.
Lifetime Support
Your one-year warranty ends? We don't disappear. Call us five years from now — or twenty — and we'll still help.
"We're honest. We do what we say we're going to do. And at the end of the day, if something breaks, we're going to come fix it. That's pretty much it."
— Scott Clements, Founder

— Scott Clements, Founder
