Custom home builder & remodeler in O’Fallon, IL.
O’Fallon and Shiloh are where new homes are still going up in the Metro East, and the Padgett family builds them from the lot forward. We are a short drive west in Swansea, close enough to be at your build site whenever you need us.
Who builds custom homes in O’Fallon?
Padgett Building & Remodeling is a family-owned custom home builder and remodeler serving O’Fallon and Shiloh, IL, from its Swansea shop a short drive west. Building homes since 1992, the Padgett family works as your partner from lot to move-in, not a sales office, and stays close for the remodels that come later.
Why build a custom home in O’Fallon or Shiloh?
O’Fallon and neighboring Shiloh are the growth end of the corridor. Families move here for the schools and for Scott Air Force Base, and there is still open ground to build on. That is a rare thing in the Metro East, and it is why a custom home makes sense here when it does not in the older, built-out towns. Padgett walks the whole path with you, from the lot you are eyeing to the day the front-door key is in your hand.
- Walking a lot before you buy, with an honest read on what it takes to build there
- Floor plans shaped around how your family actually lives
- Permits, foundation, framing, and finish under one accountable team
- A build window planned around a relocation or a move-in date
- One project manager and one phone number from first sketch to final walkthrough

What else does Padgett build in O’Fallon?
Plenty of O’Fallon and Shiloh families are staying put and making the home they have work harder. The same family that builds custom homes handles the remodels too, so one accountable team can cover the whole house for years.
Kitchen Remodeling
The room an O’Fallon family lives in, opened up and rebuilt to last. New cabinetry, layouts, and finishes, planned and built by one team.
Bathroom Remodeling
Primary baths and guest baths redone from the studs, with tile and fixtures chosen to hold up to daily family life for the long haul.
Basement Finishing
The lower level of a newer O’Fallon home turned into real living space, from a family room and bedroom to a full bath, permitted and done right.
Home Additions
More room for a growing family or an in-law suite, framed and finished to look like it was part of the house from day one.

Padgett has built its name in the Metro East since 1992, and it shows up close to home. The family sponsors the Freedom Sings USA veterans retreat in the Village of Shiloh, right next to O’Fallon and Scott Air Force Base. We are BBB A+ accredited and five-star rated on Yelp and Angi, and the project managers who run your job, Nancy, Ben, and Zec, are the people you actually work with, not a call center.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, O’Fallon is one of the largest cities in St. Clair County, and much of its housing has been built in recent decades. That newer, still-growing housing stock is exactly why the custom-home and addition work Padgett specializes in fits O’Fallon so well.
