Along the stunning Emerald Coast of Florida, Grand Bay Construction has become well-known and appreciated for quality craftsmanship and innovative design throughout the 30-A area and beyond. Looking back on its humble beginnings, Chris Burch founded this faith-based company out of his garage and is now proud to call it a multimillion-dollar boutique construction company focusing on luxury custom projects.

As the company continues to grow and expand, Burch has introduced an exciting new video series, This New House. This series invites viewers into the world of home building and craftsmanship and showcases the artistry and dedication that define each Grand Bay Construction project. Burch gives viewers an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the exceptional work Grand Bay Construction is recognized for, highlighting both its residential and commercial projects.

“Partnering with The Idea Boutique and VIE magazine to execute and produce this series with Mark Little Productions is an excellent way for me to showcase our work and the heart we have in our approach to our business and clients,” Burch says. “A newly designed website with the addition of This New House is an innovative way to showcase who we are.”

Lisa Marie Burwell, CEO/creative director of The Idea Boutique and editor-in-chief of VIE, recalls the genesis of the idea: “We presented the name of the show to Chris and really loved the premise of taking elevated cues from This Old House, which was on PBS for years. Chris said he watched that show as a child, and it was one of his favorites, so we knew this was the right name and direction to helm this series.

Each episode of This New House will bring viewers along through the creation of extraordinary homes from the very beginning, revealing the detail and effort put into each custom project. This series will allow viewers to experience the craftsmanship that Grand Bay Construction brings to life alongside the talented architects, interior designers, building product providers, and contractors along Floridas Gulf Coast. From the initial sketches to the final walkthrough of the property, viewers get the ultimate insiders glimpse into the entire process of working with Grand Bay Construction.

This series highlights the collaboration between clients and Grand Bays talented team of builders. It emphasizes the importance of communication and vision when creating spaces that truly reflect and function for the homeowners lifestyle. Grand Bay Construction believes in perfecting all details and aims to create dream spaces for each client.

Featuring a stunning property along the Emerald Coast designed by architect Gerald Burwell of Burwell Associates, Inc. and developed by Bella Mare Real Estate Holdings, the premiere of This New House showcases firsthand how blending modern aesthetics with the natural surroundings comes to life. From the selection of materials and luxurious fixtures to the actual installation, there is an emphasis on aesthetics and a strong focus on Grand Bays commitment to exceptional quality. It is clear that a Grand Bay home is not just built; it is crafted with love, care, and an unwavering commitment to excellence.

Whether one client prefers a serene retreat or a more lively family gathering space, Grand Bay Construction can do it all. With each episode, audience members will be encouraged to start dreaming of their custom home, surrounded by beauty and comfort.
