Brandywine Builders

About Us

Building Relationships and Homes Since 2001

Brandywine Builders has been a respected custom builder in Sonoma, Marin, and Napa Counties since 2001, known for delivering thoughtfully crafted homes and construction projects that reflect the character of Northern California. What began as a focus on custom residential homes has grown into a company trusted for a wide range of projects built with quality, precision, and long-term durability.

Serving homeowners throughout Sonoma, Marin, and Napa Counties, Brandywine Builders is a custom home builder, Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) builder, and whole home remodeler. The company has completed projects that include custom homes, estate site planning, accessory dwelling units, major remodels, and select small commercial spaces.

The Design-Build Experience

With decades of experience navigating permits, local regulations, and complex construction challenges, Brandywine Builders brings the perspective of a true California building expert. The team works closely with homeowners and design professionals to guide projects from early planning and budgeting through construction, creating homes that balance craftsmanship, function, and the unique lifestyle of Northern California’s legendary wine country. Our partnerships with local designers and architects combine design and building in a way that gives you a design-build experience. 

What Makes Us Different

Dustin Deason founded Brandywine Builders with a simple idea: building a home should be a collaborative and transparent process. After working in construction and seeing the gaps that often exist between homeowners, architects, and builders, he set out to create a company that prioritized communication, trust, and craftsmanship from the very beginning of a project.

As the owner of Brandywine Builders, Dustin is known for taking a hands-on approach and building strong relationships with both homeowners and design professionals. He works closely with architects, designers, and clients to ensure that ideas translate smoothly from plans to finished spaces. This collaborative mindset helps prevent surprises, keeps projects aligned with budgets, and creates a more enjoyable building experience. This combination of design and build means that there are fewer surprises for you along the way. 

Collaboration Meets Experience

Our building and remodeling company can provide you with a design-build style experience through our founder’s close collaboration with trusted architects and design professionals. By working together early in the process, we help align design ideas with construction realities like budget, site conditions, and timeline. This collaborative approach creates a smoother experience for homeowners and helps ensure the final result reflects both thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship.

Our Process

Consultation & Planning

Every project begins with a consultation where we learn about your goals, location, and timeline. Whether you’re building or remodeling in Sonoma, Napa, or Marin Counties, we start by understanding your vision and whether you already have plans. If you do not yet have a design, we can connect you with trusted architects and designers from our network to help develop plans.

Design & Budget Alignment

Budgeting is a key step in any custom home or whole home remodel. We work alongside your designer or architect to ensure the plans align with your budget and project scope. This process may involve a few revisions, but our goal is to create a clear path forward. Once the permit-ready plans and final budget are aligned, we move into a detailed contract and schedule your project.

Construction & Completion

Once construction begins, our team manages the process with clear communication, organization, and attention to craftsmanship. As the project progresses, we help finalize selections like finishes, fixtures, and flooring while keeping your style and budget in mind. At completion, we walk through the home together to provide a standard warranty.
