Who we are

Stately Homes is a family-owned, Houston-based custom home builder founded on the principles of integrity, disciplined planning, and lasting craftsmanship. Built on a commitment to transparency, financial stewardship, and client trust, Stately Homes approaches every project with structure, accountability, and purpose.

Under the leadership of Ted and Stephanie More, the company has established a reputation for delivering high-quality custom homes through a detailed pre-construction process and hands-on project management. Every home is guided by a clear financial framework, defined scopes of work, and proactive communication, ensuring homeowners understand their investment from concept to completion.

Stately Homes operates through a collaborative design-build approach, aligning architecture, interior selections, and construction under one coordinated process. This integration reduces uncertainty, protects budgets, and creates a streamlined building experience for clients across Houston and Harris County. At Stately Homes, success isn’t measured by volume, it’s measured by trust earned, investments protected, and homes built to stand the test of time.

“Our work is built on discipline, integrity, and a commitment to doing things the right way. Every home we build is guided by thoughtful planning, clear communication, and respect for our clients’ vision. We don’t aim to be the biggest builder, we aim to be the most trusted.”

why stately homes is your trusted builder

Building a custom home is a significant financial and personal investment. Choosing the right builder determines not only the outcome, but the experience along the way.

At Stately Homes, trust is built through structure, transparency, and follow-through. Our detailed pre-construction planning process aligns design, scope, and budget before construction begins, minimizing surprises and protecting your investment.

We provide clear, line-item estimates, defined timelines, and consistent communication throughout every phase of the build. From your first consultation to final walkthrough, you’ll understand what’s happening, what’s next, and how your home is progressing.

Our leadership team remains actively involved in each project, ensuring disciplined project management and accountability at every stage. Because being your trusted builder means more than delivering a beautiful home, it means delivering clarity, confidence, and long-term value.

Meet The team

Ted More

President & CEO

Ted believes building a home is one of the biggest decisions a family will ever make and he doesn’t take that responsibility lightly. For him, it’s never just about construction. It’s about trust, stewardship, and doing right by people.

He leads every project with steady oversight and clear communication. From budgeting and timelines to site visits and final details, Ted makes sure homeowners always know where things stand. He understands that clarity brings peace of mind, and peace of mind matters just as much as craftsmanship.

Clients appreciate his calm leadership, honest approach, and commitment to keeping promises. He’s the kind of builder who believes preparation prevents problems and integrity builds long-term relationships. From the first planning meeting to handing over the keys, Ted ensures every home is built with precision, care, and accountability.

At the heart of Stately Homes is Ted’s belief that faith, family, and hard work still matter and that the right way is always the only way.

Stephanie More

VP of Operations

Stephanie brings heart into the homebuilding process. She understands that behind every floor plan is a family, and behind every decision is a story.

She walks closely with homeowners through design choices, selections, and finishing details, helping them feel confident instead of overwhelmed. Stephanie takes time to truly listen…how your family gathers, how you cook, how you host, how you live day to day. That insight is what transforms a beautiful house into a meaningful home.

Her approach is thoughtful, patient, and deeply personal. Clients value her eye for detail, her warmth, and her ability to balance timeless beauty with real-life functionality. From early design meetings to the final walkthrough, she makes sure every family feels seen, supported, and cared for.

Together, Ted and Stephanie have built Stately Homes around the values that guide their own family, like faith, honesty, craftsmanship, and a commitment to serving others well.
