History
Bostock Drafting & Design was founded in 1957 by George Bostock, Jr. Today his son, George Bostock III, carries on the family tradition he started learning when he was twelve years old. George’s love for his clients has driven him to make each of their homes as individual as they are. His desire to create homes that will stand the test of time and fit form and function for the community has also driven the next generation to join his vision. Each family member has a hand in the business but daughter Jenny has taken on the role of partner to move Bostock Drafting and Design into the future .
Focus
Our number one priority is customer satisfaction. We want each and every one of our customers to be completely pleased with their home design and feel that it captures the perfect space for them. Our homes are built all over East Texas and many of our clients are repeat customers, but we approach each home with the same ambition, to make it the best design for you.
