For more than 30 years, Clayton Homes has been building more than houses. We've been building places to live, grow, connect, and call home.

Meet John
A second-generation contractor
John Clayton got his start working alongside his father in the family remodel business in Logan, Utah — hands-on experience across concrete, carpentry, windows, siding, soffit and fascia, and raingutter.
Craftsmanship comes naturally to John and is embedded in the final product. Over the years he has built a reputation with city building and planning departments as someone who takes a positive approach to problem solving.
His vision is to create communities that meet buyers' needs for a carefree, active lifestyle — projects people want to own a piece of.

How we build
From the ground up
Every community starts with the site. Somerset Villas at Cook's Corner in Sandy, from the same spot on the road.
The process
How a home gets built
01
A quality plan per project
Before construction begins, the Clayton Homes team develops a plan for the site that identifies the critical design elements, the quality details that matter most, and the challenges specific to that property.
02
Everyone equipped to get it right
Every person working in the field gets the information and tools to execute properly the first time — then is held to the standard.
03
Checklist, not guesswork
Our quality-assurance checklist covers inspection, building code, and schedule from early verification through final inspection.
04
