Not Your Average Contractor
We are not the right builder for everyone.
If you are looking for the cheapest initial bid, we are not the right fit. In this industry, the lowest bid is almost never the final price — it is a door held open for change orders, delays, and cost overruns. We refuse to play that game.
If you demand a custom build engineered to flawless standards, with transparent pricing and a result that commands the street, you are in the right place.
Every project receives our undivided attention.
We cap the number of builds we accept each quarter. Qualification runs both ways — the first conversation determines whether the project is right for us as much as whether we are right for you.
The Island Standard, Defined
Built by the crews who build for the island.
For years I served as a project manager overseeing multimillion-dollar builds on the exclusive estates of Palm Beach Island — for clients who demanded absolute perfection, uncompromising privacy, and elite execution.
When I founded McNaughton & Sons, I had one singular mission: to bring that exact standard of luxury construction directly to you.
We are not a volume builder. We do not cut corners and we do not compromise on materials. The artisans on your home are the same ones who build for billionaires a bridge away.

How We Build
The R.I.S.E. Standard
Most builders operate on a standard of compromise: vague quotes, endless change orders, job-site chaos. Four pillars govern every project we accept.
R
Relationships
White-glove service
We sell a professional service, not just labor. You are never left in the dark: we communicate proactively, manage every complex detail face to face, and treat your property with absolute respect.
I
Integrity
Total transparency
We do not guess with your money. Strict, detailed line-item allowances in writing. No hidden fees, no moving targets, and no low-ball bids designed to trap you in relentless change orders.
S
Superior Quality
The Palm Beach benchmark
Flawless craftsmanship executed by elite, vetted crews. We cut zero corners and maintain immaculately clean job sites — how a builder works dictates how they finish.
E
Efficiency
The 7-business-day promise
Speed without sacrificing precision. Competitors take weeks to return a vague estimate; we present a comprehensive budget proposal and design-build roadmap in person within seven business days of the site visit.
A Better Process
From first call to fixed price in seven business days.*
Business Day 1
The Consultation
Brandon walks your property personally. We define scope, constraints, and the finish level you expect — before a single number is written down.
Business Day 2 – 7
The Engineering
Our team engineers your vision on paper: line-item allowances, material selections, trade sequencing, and a build calendar with real dates.
Business Day 7
The Presentation
We return in person with a fixed-price budget proposal and design-build roadmap, and walk you through every detail. No surprises, ever.
Exclusive Construction Services
Every phase of luxury residential construction.
Whole Home Renovations
Full-property transformations that respect the structure you have while replacing everything that no longer serves it.
Elite Additions
Additional square footage that reads as original — matched rooflines, matched finishes, no visible seam between old and new.
Luxury Kitchens
Custom cabinetry, stone selection and appliance integration, sequenced so the room is out of service for the shortest possible window.
Luxury Baths
Waterproofing done properly, tile set precisely, and fixtures specified to last decades rather than seasons.
Commercial & Community Construction
Clubhouses, HOA entrances and amenity buildings, delivered with the same crews and the same fixed-price discipline.

Rated 5 out of 5
McNaughton & Sons did an excellent job repairing the roof leak in our downstairs office. The work was done efficiently, the communication was great throughout the process and everything was left clean when they finished. It’s hard to find reliable contractors these days, but these guys were honest, knowledgeable, and easy to work with. Highly recommend Brandon and McNaughton & Sons for anyone needing quality work.

Brandon and his team were very knowledgeable and had an immense amount of resources for our project. They even helped us figure out how we could cut cost in areas that could be designed differently so we could reallocate budgets. I wouldn’t go anywhere else in the future!

I just completed 120k window job on my waterfront property. Brandon was on time for the quote, and always communicated with me in a timely manner. Even though there was a shipping mistake with the order (not his fault), he took care of everything all the way through and made sure we were happy with it all. I cannot overemphasize how honest he is. My house looks great and everything works as it should. Thanks Brandon.

They ordered and installed impact windows for me and the job went exactly as they told me it would. From the beautiful high quality windows to the great and timely installation right down to being present when the city inspector showed up to sign off. High quality work at the exact agreed price. I will use them in the future.
