BEHST Builders has completed a broad range of products.  While some builders may focus on just new construction or remodeling, we believe it is imperative to be proficient in both.  Our crews learn valuable lessons by working on remodels and seeing what installations have failed and why.  We can take these learnings into our new construction.   We also like picking up new finish details to help make each project unique.  Below we have picked a few of our favorite projects, but we have many others. 

162 Twine Street, St. Augustine Florida

This new single family residence is being built in the heart of Lincolnville.  The house was designed by BEHST Builders, Inc.  The owner wanted contemporary, but architectural review guidelines required certain roof pitches.   The design incorporates mechanically operated awning windows and large openings for natural ventilation.  The rear elevation will feature a set of panelized doors 14' long that will completely open the house to the outdoors when the weather permits.  Construction began on this custom home in March, 2008 and will be completed by December, 2008.

36 Bayview Drive, St. Augustine Florida

The focus of this project was the addition of approximately 850 square feet along with a new screened rear porch and front entry.  The owners of this residence in the North City neighborhood just north of downtown St. Augustine needed additional space for a growing family.  Steve Schuyler A.1.A. came up with a very efficient way to add the spae they needed.  BEHST Builders worked with the owner to complete finish selections and then implemented the project.  The project started in January, 2008 and construction was completed in April, 2008.  As we recommended, the owners moved into temporary housing for 8 weeks during the most intensive phases of construction.

201 La Crescenta Court, Crescent Beach Florida   

This new home was completed in summer 2006.  This home includes over 6,300 square feet under cover.  The home features a beatiful great room and a chef's kitchen.  There is also an elevator and numerous premium finishes incorporated into the interior.

Charlotte Model in Linconville and on Anastasia Island

BEHST Builders, Inc designed and built the Charlotte Model in 2004 at 86 Keith Street in historic Linconville in downtown St. Augustine.  The design has a main structure that is two stories with 3 bedrooms and 2 1/2 bathrooms and an optional one story addition that includes a large bedroom/office, a full bathroom, and a covered rear porch.  The main structure was built once in 2004 and then the upgraded version was built in 2006.  Notice that both the exterior and interior details were changed to create two very different homes.  Both homes were sold once completed.

Kelley-OBrien Estate Home Rehabilitation

BEHST Builders, Inc does do remodeling and additions to compliment the new construction work. 

We are currently putting the finishing touches into this long-term restoration project.  While we

were not involved in earlier phases of the project, we have taken over for the last year to try to

get the finishing details completed.  We have built custom wood windows to match the existing

and we have implemented smart weatherstripping solutions to help button up the home.  While

we don't expect every remodel to be this intricate, we bring the same level of passion to each

project even if its a simple repair.
