Our Story
Woodfield Design + Build was founded by brothers-in-law Rick Leitao and Phil Alves, who share a passion for creating custom homes that are as unique as the families who live in them.
Every home we design is highly personalized — crafted with care, intention, and the belief that “custom” should mean attainable, not intimidating.
Because all design work is done in-house, clients don’t just get a house plan — they get a process shaped around their vision. From the first meeting to the final handoff, we remain personally involved, guiding each step with transparency and a design-forward approach.
The result? Homes that make a statement. Spaces that feel distinctly “Woodfield.” And a building experience that’s as personal as it is professional.
“Every home we build is personal. We’re with you from the first conversation to the moment you turn the key.”
