You have a vision. You should not have to compromise it to fit someone else's blueprint.

Buying an existing home in Bergen County means inheriting someone else's decisions - their floor plan, their ceiling heights, their material choices. For homeowners who know precisely what they want, that is not an option.

A home designed around how your family actually lives - not a developer's assumptions.

Every structural and material decision made transparently, with your involvement.

One team managing design, permits, and construction - no gaps, no blame-shifting between separate firms.

ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling has been delivering this level of custom home construction across Bergen County since 2002.

What We Deliver

Every component of your custom build, under one roof.

ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling operates as a true design-build firm. You work with a single team from architectural planning through the final walkthrough - eliminating the coordination failures that occur when architects and builders operate separately.

Bergen County Case Study

Teardown and Custom Rebuild - Paramus, NJ

The Challenge. A homeowner in Paramus brought a 1958 Cape Cod on a 75x100 foot lot to ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling. The existing structure had a compromised foundation, non-conforming setbacks under the current Paramus Borough zoning ordinance, and a floor plan that could not be salvaged through an addition. The only viable path was a full teardown and custom rebuild.

The Structural Constraints. Paramus Borough requires a minimum 25-foot front setback and 10-foot side yard clearances on lots under 10,000 sq ft. Working within the buildable envelope - approximately 55x60 feet - our team designed a 3,200 sq ft two-story colonial that maximized the footprint without requiring a variance application. The new foundation was engineered for the site's soil classification with a full perimeter drain system addressing the drainage failure that had degraded the prior foundation.

The Outcome. The homeowners remained in their Bergen County school district and moved into a structurally sound custom home designed around their family's specific needs. ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling managed all Paramus Building Department filings, structural engineering submissions, and trade coordination under a single contract.

Common Questions

What Bergen County homeowners ask before building custom.

How long does it take to build a custom home in Bergen County? +
A custom home in Bergen County typically takes 5 to 7 months from permit approval to final walkthrough, while a luxury real estate build runs 8 to 16 months, depending on scope and site conditions. ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling provides a detailed project timeline at the start of every engagement and updates you at every milestone.
Does ADPB Group handle permits for custom home builds? +
Yes. We manage all zoning applications, municipal approvals, and building permits. We have extensive experience navigating the permit offices across Bergen County municipalities - navigating them is part of our service, not an extra charge.
What is the advantage of a design-build contractor? +
When your architect and your builder are separate firms, every discrepancy between design and construction becomes a negotiation - and you bear the cost of resolving it. As a design-build firm, ADPB Group Bergen Remodeling eliminates that gap entirely. One team, one contract, one point of accountability.
Can I build on my existing lot in Bergen County? +
Yes. We regularly build custom homes on existing lots throughout Bergen County. Our team conducts a full site assessment, reviews local zoning ordinances, and designs a home that maximizes your lot within all applicable setbacks and municipal requirements.
How much does a custom home cost in Bergen County NJ? +
Custom home costs in Bergen County typically range from $400,000 to well over $1,000,000 depending on square footage, site conditions, and finish level. We provide a detailed estimate after a thorough review of your vision and your lot - not a ballpark over the phone.
