Titus Parker, president of Black Diamond Builders is intimately involved in every aspect of your project.

We believe in a personal approach to building the home of your dreams. We like our first meeting to be with you in person. We listen and ask key questions to fully understand you and your project.

Our goal is to guide you through the entire process utilizing our dedicated and skilled craftsmen, designers and technicians.

Following our in-depth conversations we will develop and deliver a Services Agreement for you to sign. This includes surveys, planning, and timelines.

Once we solidify our plans with you, it’s time to meet with our design team to turn plans into detailed allowances. During these meetings you will work with our team to select allowance items and materials such as appliances, windows, flooring, countertops, etc. The process is fun and helps refine the budget and assure you that there will be no costly surprises once we start construction.

We understand a custom home or remodel is a big investment for you. We help you make informed financial decisions. We use cloud-based project management software that gives you access on demand. You’ll be able to see your budget in real time.

We’re dedicated to creating a home that reflects your vision, down to the last detail.

Client Testimonials

“In 2022, we seized the opportunity to buy a lakefront home in the perfect location. The lot came with a circa 1905 cottage that challenged lot-line set-backs on 3 sides. We decided to restore instead of rebuild, and a wonderful odyssey was launched. Black Diamond Builders, led by Master Carpenter and Owner, Titus Parker, performed amazing feats and delivered us a restored cottage that met our vision. We look at it now and can hardly believe our eyes! Titus stands by his work and still stops by from time to time to check on minor tweaks. We are fully content and could not recommend him more highly.”

“My 130-year-old needed updating. My dream was to rebuild the garage and connect it to the house with a laundry/mud room. The house also needed new siding, new windows on the front porch, all new exterior doors, and a bathroom remodel. Titus and the Black Diamond team made my dream a reality in the summer of 2024, and I could not be happier!

The attention to detail was evident throughout the project. The work ethic, professionalism and craftmanship was like none I’d ever experienced with previous projects. The team kept a clean and organized workspace, and it was evident that each Team member had great pride in their work. The project was completed on time. Titus was always available to answer my questions and concerns. The communication throughout the project was fantastic. Titus and his team are simply remarkable.”

“Our 1986 Maxinkuckee lake house was in need of some major changes to accommodate our growing family.  Our goal was to create a comfortable home with more open living space and open views of the lake. We also needed to reconfigure the private portions of the house to provide more bedrooms and bathrooms. We chose Black Diamond Builders to help transform the house into our dream lake home.

Titus Parker, President, Seth Parker, VP of Sales, and all the employees of Black Diamond Builders truly made our dreams a reality! Their skilled craftsmanship, excellent communication skills, and dedication to excellence showed up 100% every day at 7am for 10 months. The team worked tirelessly, with smiles on their faces, to create everything we dreamed of! They exceeded our expectations and we highly recommend Black Diamond Builders to make your dreams come true, just like ours!”

“When Curt and I decided to add onto our lake cottage in Culver Indiana, we knew we were trusting someone with more than just a construction project. We were trusting them with a dream. Titus Parker, President of Black Diamond Builders, and his amazing team were with us every step of the way, helping shape our vision and bringing real expertise and creativity to the design process.

We were out of state during much of the work, but that never slowed things down. Where the old structure met the new, there were plenty of challenges and that’s where Titus truly shone. He was able to give us that “new build” quality while maintaining the “old lake cottage” feel. Titus and his crew tackled every issue with care and precision, coming up with innovative solutions to our specific situation. The trust we felt knowing they were handling everything in our absence, meant the world to us.

We honestly could not be happier with how it all turned out. The craftsmanship is beautiful, the timelines were respected, and the integrity Titus brought to every detail shows in the finished result. If you’re looking for a builder who truly cares, we can’t recommend Titus Parker and Black Diamond Builders enough!"
Debby and Curt”
