What DeLaurentis Developments does

DeLaurentis Developments is a privately held, founder-owned residential design and construction firm headquartered in Fairfield, Connecticut, serving affluent homeowners in Fairfield County. Founded in 2010 by Eric DeLaurentis as a commercial construction and facilities management business, the company pivoted to residential in 2017 and now delivers custom, semi-custom, and spec homes along with renovations, remodels, and additions. The firm operates an integrated design-build model that combines architecture, interior design, and construction under a single point of contact, with Jennifer DeLaurentis leading design and Eric leading construction oversight across all project phases from excavation through millwork finishing.

The company employs engineered structural systems (LVL, PSL, glulam beams, and steel) to enable wider open floor plans, and incorporates Tuff-N-Dri waterproofing with IDP Barrier Board foundations for durability. Spec homes feature smart home integration including Leviton Smart Load Centers, wifi-enabled garage doors, security systems, sprinkler systems, and EV charging outlets. Project portfolio spans Tudor-Esque, Modern Farmhouse, American Farmhouse, Craftsman, and Contemporary styles, with completed homes typically ranging 4,300-4,500 sq ft on 0.24-0.46 acre lots in the $1M-$2M+ price band.

Revenue is generated through project-based, one-time construction contracts with affluent individual clients, supplemented by spec home sales upon closing. Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed. Go-to-market is direct-to-consumer via website, phone, and email consultations, augmented by referral flow from sister company The DeLaurentis Team (a separate real estate brokerage). Marketing relies on Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn, Pinterest, blog content, and regional PR coverage. The company is privately held by the DeLaurentis family with no external funding or institutional investors, and operates with a headcount in the 11-50 range.

• David Weekley Homes: Large US homebuilder with a custom and select-build product line alongside broader production offerings. Comparable in serving affluent buyers with premium customization, but at a national scale with broader portfolio delivery.
