About the Builder
With a passion for craftsmanship and detail, Klaus has dedicated the last 20 years to building exceptional homes in the North Dallas area. Originally from Germany, his family immigrated to the U.S. when he was just two years old. While still in high school, he spent summers working in construction, drawn to the art of architecture and design. His career began with remodeling homes in Dallas’ Lower Greenville district, which quickly evolved into new construction projects.
Klaus, his wife Julie, and their three children—Candace, Aaron, and Olivia—proudly call McKinney, Texas, home. He remains deeply involved in every project, ensuring that Crest Custom Homes maintains a personal touch. Built on the core values of integrity, honesty, and excellence, the company is dedicated to delivering homes that exceed expectations.
With a carefully assembled design and construction team, Klaus and Crest Custom Homes can bring a vision to life—whether it’s a stylish townhome or a sprawling luxury estate. He understands that a home is more than just a structure; it’s a place where memories are made for years to come.
If you’re searching for a meticulously crafted home, Crest Custom Homes would love to connect with you.
Testimonials
"Last year we completed the construction of our dream home with Crest Custom Homes. Every step of the process was done with the utmost quality, excellence and integrity. The ultimate compliment we can pay is that we love our home, and there is absolutely nothing we would change about it. There is no other individual person or company we would consider when selecting a custom home builder."
-Ed and Pam McCabe
Klaus at Crest Custom Homes was the third house that Sheree and I built. So we were quite knowledgeable about designing and building a home. Our experience with Klaus was by-far the best. He builds a home for you as if it were his home. No shortcuts. Replaces and repairs items if not done right. Easy to do business with. If I had to build another home, it would be with Klaus.
-Robert and Sheree Dixon
"It is with great enthusiasm that we write this letter of recommendation in support of Klaus Kuehn and Crest Custom Homes. Both he and his construction team merit the highest degree of our appreciation for their professionalism and integrity in providing my family with the home of our dreams. They truly exceeded our expectations in each and every way possible.
From the very first time we met Klaus, we were truly impressed with him not only as a builder of majestic homes, but more importantly, with him being a man of true integrity and honesty.
I would highly recommend that anyone who is considering building a home for their family, would meet and spend time with Klaus. I am positive that you will see in him the same endearing qualities which I did."

"I could not have been happier with the building process, attention to detail and final product that I experienced working with Crest Homes! You can trust them to act with integrity and use a level of care second to none!"
-Steve Bigelow
I purchased my home in McKinney, Texas, from Crest Homes about 10 years ago and the builder of the home, Klaus Kuehn, was so helpful to me, a widow, in that process. He was very considerate and thoughtful in getting everything accomplished for my taking ownership. This home has been built with great attention to quality and detail, from basic essentials to decorative touches, making each room uniquely beautiful and practical, as well. I have been impressed by Mr. Kuehn’s faithfulness and dedication throughout the intervening years to any inquiries and requests for recommendations, even to stopping by to offer help. My experience with Crest Homes and Klaus Kuehn has been a positive one and I would highly recommend them.
