Generations of craftsmen serving

STRONG FOUNDATIONS
R.L. Beyer Custom Home Builders has a distinct reputation in the building industry being devoted solely to the Central Virginia home market. Rick Beyer along with his wife, Diana started the company in 1972 building modest homes. Rick and Diana, along with their staff, are attentive to every detail - the initial design, thoughtfully siting the home, selecting colors and finishing details, and insuring the completed home is of the caliber that has granted them the highly respected reputation in the homebuilding community.






Rick and Diana Beyer
COMMITMENT TO QUALITY
Talented designers and seasoned craftsman oversee the finishing details and warranty of the home with the new homeowners. The appreciation and use of natural materials have always been reflected in the designs long before the trend of organic materials emerged in the marketplace. Handcrafted wood pillars, custom designed spaces, handsome hand laid hardwood floors, and stained glass artifacts used as interior transoms are just a few of the unique elements of these fine homes.
The Legacy
Over 4 Decades of Experience
Loyalty and commitment to construction of integrity are evident and have been accomplished by long time craftsmen affiliated with Beyer – 3 foremen that have 35 to 40 years with the company managing the many details and are now mentoring their 4 adult sons to carry on the legacy
Rick Beyer – Founder and President of R.L. Beyer Custom Home Builders 1972
Rick grew up on a Fluvanna County farm and found a love of ‘building’ at the age of 7 in his dad’s barn by stacking the rectangular hay bales into various forts and tunnels. Today, while the methods are current and sophisticated, he continues to have a passion for construction from the proper siting of the foundation to the finishing details of the home.
Diana Beyer – Co-founder & Designer
Diana and Rick have been a perfect blend of talents. Diana is tirelessly committed to the details with an artist’s eye. She is instrumental in the final review of designs and implementing the tasteful choices of the finishing specifications that have become a trademark for the company’s stellar reputation.
