From Our Family to Yours: Custom Homes Built Right

Dingman Custom Homes is a family-run builder based in the western Twin Cities, known for pairing craftsmanship with care. Since 1997, we've helped families bring their dream homes to life; homes that reflect who they are, how they live, and where they want to grow.

Who We Are

What started as one man with a drafting table and a deep love for construction has grown into a full-service, award-winning building team. Dale Dingman founded Dingman Custom Homes in 1997 after years of experience in design and construction. His son Kyle grew up learning the trade at his side, and today the Dingman name continues to stand for quality, honesty, and homes built to last.

We work directly with you from day one, helping you find the perfect lot, designing a home that fits your family, and walking with you through every build stage. No two families are the same; your home shouldn't be either.

Our Promise

At Dingman Custom Homes, we are proud to be an award-winning builder, recognized with multiple industry honors for our craftsmanship and attention to detail. Every Dingman home is built with care, precision, and pride. We hold ourselves and our trade partners to the highest standard because we know the houses we build aren’t just any old houses—they’re forever homes.

From the first sketch to the final walk-through, our job isn’t finished until you feel at home.

What We Stand For

We believe in:

Doing It Right the First Time

Quality isn’t just a goal—it’s our baseline. We don’t cut corners or settle for “good enough.” Every home we build is done with care, precision, and pride from start to finish.

Listening More Than We Talk

Before we pick up our tools, we make sure we understand what matters most to you. Your needs, your style, your vision: that’s what guides the entire build.

Building Homes That Reflect Real Lives—Not Just Blueprints

We don’t do cookie-cutter. Every home is designed around how your family lives, moves, gathers, and grows.

Craftsmanship That Stands the Test of Time

Trends come and go, but a well-built home lasts for generations. We work with trusted trade partners and proven materials to ensure every detail is built to endure.

Keeping It Personal

You’ll work directly with our team, and we’ll be there every step of the way to make sure your home feels like yours, not ours.

Office Watch Dog

Bailey is the Dingman Custom Homes “guard dog”. You may hear her fierce barking from across the street or on the phone, but once she sees you, you will be greeted by a thousand licks! She has been with us for more than 10 years and enjoys sunbathing on the driveway and eating everything she can find.
