Tom
Tom Ceci
Co-Owner and builder at CeciBates Homes who grew up in a family construction business. Tom learned side by side with a master craftsman and demanding customers in all phases of residential construction. Tom, in 1987, ventured on his own and started Ceci Construction, running a successful business for the next 12 years. Tom, growing up in this business, was highly skilled in concrete, framing, electrical, roofing and trim. Tom understood that a working set of plans was most important and began designing and drafting custom homes for his clients. Tom and Scott met in 1998 and became friends, and later in 1999 joined forces to form CeciBates Custom Homes. 
Scott
Scott Bates

Scott Bates - Co-Founder and builder - grew up in a family that was in the business of interior finishes and decorating. Scott went to work for a large commercial contracting firm where he quickly became a project manager overseeing large construction projects. His experiences there ranged from in-house mechanical, electrical, plumbing and steel fabrication, as well as general contracting. This unique combination is what makes his experience as a builder different, due to the focus on building sciences, energy efficiencies and interior design. Both Tom and Scott bring these unique elements to designing and building custom homes and remodels that are unique and challenging, which is why they say “We Build Outside the Box”.
