Get to Know Wilson Homes

Building lasting homes and relationships for over 35 years

At Wilson Homes, Tradition of Quality isn’t just a phrase—it’s the principle James Wilson built his career on. Under the guidance of Lee Wilson, James launched Wilson Homes in the Tyler, Texas area with a clear mission: deliver excellence in every phase of the custom home building process. From initial design to final walkthrough, we’ve earned a trusted reputation across Tyler, Athens, and Jacksonville for outstanding craftsmanship and client satisfaction.

We’re proud to say that many of our clients finish their build not just happy—but as friends. That’s the result of our personal approach, consistent communication, strong work ethic, and years of experience. How many builders can say their customers become part of their community?

Every Wilson Homes project begins with a plan—and whether you bring us a rough sketch or a broad idea, we’re here to turn it into something tangible. Through a one-on-one collaborative process, we design spaces that reflect your needs and exceed expectations, capturing every detail from layout to finishes. Our services include custom home building, kitchen renovations, bathroom renovations, and additions.

We’ve also been honored with multiple industry awards, including the Pinnacle Award for Small to Medium Design and the Best Exterior Design Award. We’re active members of the National Association of Home Builders (NAHB), Texas Association of Builders (TAB), Tyler Area Builders Association (TABA), and the Better Business Bureau of Central East Texas (BBB). James Wilson has proudly served multiple terms on TABA’s board of directors.

With 35 years of hands-on experience, James and the Wilson Homes team are ready to help you create your dream home—and welcome you into a growing community built on trust, quality, and long-lasting relationships. Discover what makes Wilson Homes different.
