Hydes is tucked into a stretch of rolling countryside between Baldwin and Jacksonville that most people pass through without fully registering. That anonymity is precisely what the homeowners here prize. Deeply private properties, mature landscapes, homes set far enough from the road to feel genuinely removed from the daily world beyond them. For those whose older, more substantial properties have become more physically demanding as the years have passed, a residential elevator installation offers both a practical solution and a lasting investment in a home and a way of life they are not remotely interested in leaving. Taylor Made Custom Contracting has been designing and installing residential elevators throughout Hydes and Baltimore County since 1990.



Hydes properties tend toward the older and the more individually distinctive, reflecting the personal investment of the families who have owned and maintained them over many years. These are homes that carry their history in their structural systems, their floor plans, and their architectural details in ways that require a more considered and more technically sophisticated approach to residential elevator installation than a newer or more standardized home would demand. Taylor Made brings exactly that approach to every Hydes installation, beginning with a thorough structural assessment that accounts for the specific characteristics of each individual property before any system recommendation is made.
For Hydes homeowners, the value of a residential elevator installation is inseparable from the value of the home and the community it represents. These are properties that people have invested in with genuine seriousness over many years, and they are communities that offer a quality of daily life that makes leaving genuinely unappealing. A residential elevator makes it possible to continue living fully in those properties regardless of how physical needs evolve, connecting every level of the home in a way that preserves complete access to the full life of the property.
Taylor Made manages every aspect of the residential elevator installation process in Hydes from initial assessment and system selection through permit acquisition, installation, and final inspection. We bring the same standard of craftsmanship to every Hydes project that has defined our work throughout Baltimore County since 1990, and we deliver results that are entirely worthy of the properties we work in.


Selecting the right residential elevator system for an older Hydes property requires a thorough understanding of the available technologies and how each performs within different structural contexts. Taylor Made's experience across the full range of residential elevator systems, from hydraulic and cable-driven shaftway systems to pneumatic freestanding units, allows us to make system recommendations that are genuinely tailored to the specific structural configuration and spatial constraints of each individual home rather than applying a standardized approach that may not serve the property as well as a more considered alternative.
Hydes homeowners who are concerned about the extent of disruption that a residential elevator installation might create in a home they have carefully maintained and decorated over many years will find that Taylor Made's installation approach is designed to minimize that disruption at every stage. Our team works carefully within the existing structure of the home, sequencing the installation to preserve access to living spaces throughout the process and completing every aspect of the project with a level of care and tidiness that reflects our genuine respect for the homes we work in.


A residential elevator is a significant long-term investment, and Taylor Made's commitment to the homeowners we work with does not end at the conclusion of the installation. We offer comprehensive post-installation service and maintenance programs for every elevator system we install in Hydes, ensuring that the system continues to perform safely and reliably for years after the initial project is complete. Our service team knows every system we install and responds to maintenance needs and service calls with the same professionalism and attention to quality that defines our installation work.
Taylor Made was founded in 1990 by Kevin and Suzanne Taylor with a conviction that has shaped every project they have taken on: every family deserves a home that supports them through every stage of life. The private, characterful properties of Hydes represent some of the most distinctive and most meaningful work Taylor Made does throughout Baltimore County.
Kevin brings over 35 years of structural and installation expertise to every Hydes project, combined with a personal respect for the homes he works in that shows in every decision he makes. Suzanne brings design intelligence and genuine warmth to every client relationship, ensuring that the process of planning and completing a residential elevator installation reflects the care and the quality that Hydes homeowners expect from every professional they invite into their homes.
We measure our success through the stories of families enjoying life together in their beautifully remodeled homes. Our clients' experiences of renewed independence and peace of mind drive everything we do, and we're honored by the trust Maryland families have placed in us throughout the years.
